Julia Fox's Square French Manicure Is All My '90s Beauty Dreams In One Look

Julia Fox has never met a manicure she couldn't wear. On Aug. 4, the media personality was photographed in Los Angeles wearing what looks like a padded jersey top and D-Squared jeans. Besides her cool visor sunglasses (seriously, they’re like a hat and glasses in one!), Fox’s nails made me want to ditch my gels and go all in on gel-X extensions for the foreseeable future.

To start, Fox’s nails were filed into a medium-length square shape, a nod to the ‘90s trend that’s been making its way back into the zeitgeist. The manicure combined two techniques into one look because not only are square nails very on trend, but the design was also a classic: the French manicure. Fox’s version used an ombré technique with a bright pink at the tips of her nails, fading into the traditional soft pink used in this nail style. Think Essie’s Ballet Slipper, but a little more opaque.
