How Cool Is This Star Manicure?

We haven't been too into nail art lately, but this star manicure is way too cool to not try. Plus, it's a cinch to pull off which is great for the girl on the go. All you need to do to get this look is apply a clear or barely-there pink base coat to your nails. As it dries, place the star stickers in whatever color and size you prefer, and then finish off with a strong top coat to keep it all in place. If you like the look without the natural white nail tips, just make sure to file your nails before you start.
