The French manicure's clean white tip has picked up a new trick: a cat-eye finish that catches the light with every gesture. Elle calls it simple to recreate at home and striking enough to hold a room's attention on its own. It reads as at home on a Palm Beach lunch table as it does under Beverly Hills evening light—quiet until it isn't. Compliments, per the report, are close to guaranteed.
