Abstract Claws 2.0
When summer first began, abstract nails were all the craze with every Instagram story featuring chic nails with simple bright color swirls. Now, with fall coming up, it’s time to trade in soft pinks and classic whites for electrifying blue’s and highlighter limes. New hues, double dots and tribal lines give a whole new meaning to the abstract look.
