There are so many things to be paid attention to here: light blue nail polish, the design, art, French tip, and the length of the nail.

Popular fashion opinion is that people who wear neon colors are comfortable with attention or might be following fashion trends.

But someone did, and that person sure did a great job with this combo. The neon color, cow print, and additional designs will draw some attention to the nails.

16 – Coffin Pink and Black Cow Print Nails

You know, black and white, pink and white, but looking at this, you can tell it’s a combination of all – pink, black, white and even nude! The blend, the artistry, all of it is divine. We like how scanty the cow print is and the diversity of subtle designs.

18 – Black and White Cow Print Nails 

Basically, black and white is the signature design for cow print, so black and white cow nails are not an unusual design to wear. But you’d agree that this looks slightly different from the typical white and black cow print nails. 

If you look closely, you’ll notice that some of the fingers have a swirly diagonal French tip design. We are impressed at the uniqueness of these nails and the creativity of nail tech.

White cow nails can be created using any design, and they’ll still look exquisite. If in doubt, you should look at this picture again. What differentiates this style from other white and black styles is that there’s only one cow print per hand. It reduces attention while maintaining beauty.
