Megan Thee Stallion might be the ultimate nail art inspiration. Her sets never disappoint. While she is a bigger fan of character art than rhinestones, according to Allure, the Houston hottie's set from the 2020 holiday season combines both a theme with rhinestones. This set she posted on Instagram is almost uncharacteristically simple as well, which makes it easy to re-create at home. A bow with a little accent rhinestone at the center is perfect for the season, but you can try this look year-round. Just glancing at her IG pic, you can tell her artist painted gift bows onto her nails and applied an iridescent rhinestone in the middle of each nail. If your nail art skills aren't that advanced, you can find a suitable decal alternative to add rhinestones to yourself — you'll find an amazing array on Etsy.

The key to pulling off rhinestone nails, whatever the design, is to make sure those stones stay on at all costs: If the wrong thread or object gets caught on the crystal, it can fall off your nail and ruin your manicure. Harper's Bazaar says the secret is using a gel-curing UV light to ensure the gel adhesive you used sets and those gems stay put. While using a curing lamp might sound intimidating, if you're a fan of having fun new styles on your nails every few weeks, the UV light will eventually pay for itself.
