I joke that I’m psychic quite often, but no one doubts my foresight when it comes to on-the-rise nail trends. My finger(tip) is on the pulse of all burgeoning manicure movements before they take over your Pinterest feed, from tiger-stripe nails—just picking up steam now, by the way—to unconventional color combos that pros would back me up on months later. Now that I have your attention, I’m excited to introduce a trend that elevates last year’s polka dot craze into something fresh ahead of summer: Studded nails, as you’ll soon see below.

I first caught a glimpse of this trend last October, when a single image of a manicure rimmed with silver studs popped up on my Pinterest. The look immediately intrigued me, not only because it resembled a handbag I’d just watched Lorelai Gilmore swing around on my TV (I was doing my annual fall re-watch of Gilmore Girls, okay!), but because it felt like a cooler and edgier way to wear polka dots than the countless ways I’d seen celebrities show them off online.
