5. Leopard Print:

Pair your funky leopard print with a neutral tone to make your design the center of attention.

7. Not the Whole Nail:
Sometimes the best looks are left unfinished.
8. Underneath the Nail:
If you want to try an animal print but don’t want it to be too overwhelming, channel Louboutin and rock your design underneath.
