One of the most enjoyable parts of having long nails is being able to paint and decorate them so that they match the clothing that you are wearing.

You can even add gems to enhance the design of your nails; a single accent gem will look great with your evening wear, but a series of gems may complete a look that you are aiming for with a costume design. Let’s take a look at some long nail art designs so that you can find the best options for your next manicure.
