If you’re feeling fun and flirty, it’s time to match your nails to that vibe. Step away from neutrals and minimal shades and get a themed mani. One way to go about it: turn to your favourite TV shows for inspiration. Whether you’re a Gossip Girl loyalist or a Bridgerton fan, there’s a nail art design that goes with your binge watch sesh.

Gilmore Girls
When we think of Gilmore Girls, we think of the 2000s style, a lot of coffee and warm autumnal tones. Browns and nudes capture the essence of Stars Hollow (the setting of the show), while coquette-core-inspired florals champion the Rory-Lorelai energy.

Euphoria
Whether it’s Sydney Sweeney’s bedazzled pink nails as Cassie or Alexa Demie’s magnetic coffin-shaped claws as Maddie, we love both. This gold metallic design makes a statement; and can be toned down or elevated, depending on your preference.

Vampire Diaries
The early 2000s were obsessed with vampires, from Twilight to the cult-classic Vampire Diaries. If you’re aiming for that mysterious energy, let these cherry cola-inspired nails guide you. Use dark burgundy polish diffused into a brighter red to replicate the look.
