It’s All About Class

As my base color, I chose a rich blue, like Sally Hansen’s Extreme Wear in “Blue It”, but of course, you can use whatever nail polish color you prefer. Then, with a pigmented black polish, I simply made a stroke starting a little higher than the middle of my nail.

After this, go back and make curves on either side to create a nice, half oval shape on the nail. Uh, can I just mention that we’re basically almost done at this point? Like I said, this tutorial is super simple!

To finish this nail art look, use a gold nail polish to paint a large dot right where the black and blue polishes meet. If you don’t have a gold polish, silver looks just as gorgeous!

Can You Believe We’re Done?!

That’s all there is to it! In only four steps, you have a chic and elegant design that’s guaranteed to add class to any look. The best part? This nail art is so versatile – just switch up the colors to create an entirely different look.
