14 Outrageous nail art designs to take on if you’re feeling adventurous

Always wanted to try something radical with your nails but never had the guts to do so? Instead of the usual crystal-laden, floral 3D nail art designs that are atypical, go against the grain with these trends. No one can accuse you of failing to nail it—all you really need is a dash of confidence and a trustworthy manicurist.

 

Termed “fire and ice”, this intricate nail art looks like a combination of broken glass, glitter, diamantés and more.

You can always explore with texture (case in point, fur) for a statement-making look.

 

Or you can also take on this season’s biggest fashion trend, logomania, if you literally want to make a statement.

 

The antithesis of bling-ed out nails, these dainty art and negative space will give new meaning to what “outrageous” means.
