From Stiletto to Squareletto.

We appreciate a good beauty trend, particularly on a Friday when party prep is nigh, and the latest nail trend is fabulous altogether.

If you’re familiar with the #ManiMondays tag on Instagram, you might have noticed the style: a squared shaped talon that maintains the coveted stiletto effect.

Celebrity manicurist Gina Edwards spoke to In Style about the ‘squareletto’ shape: “It gives you the boldness of a stiletto, but the squared tip makes it more functional and wearable.

“They’re a great shape for the workplace and transition easily into the evening”.

Now to be fair, the squareletto is pretty similar to the ‘coffin nail’ shape, but we way prefer the new name.
