Adding some simple lace to your favorite polish color will instantly add elegance to any look.

Paint a bright and fun base color (or your favorite color!). I used Julep's Robin and applied a fast dry top coat to create a smooth canvas.
Paint tiny scallops in a straight line along your cuticle. The size of your nail will determine how many you'll be able to fit. I used OPI's My Vampire is Buff.
Add tiny triangles along the scallops you created. The point of the triangles should be centered over the join line of each scallop.
Using your brush or a dotting tool, add 2-3 dots extending off the tip of the triangle. Add more dots along the edge of the triangles to fill in your look. **Note** Don't worry if your nail art polish is thick/textured on your nail. Adding a top coat when you're done will create a smooth nail surface.
Add your favorite top coat and that's it! You'll have a bright and unique manicure that is sure to turn heads. You can also mix things up a bit by flipping the design - have the scallops start along the tip of your nail instead!
