Mani of the Week: Chess Board Nails
Why we love it: Who else has binge-watched "The Queen's Gambit?" Between the mod costuming, the nail-biting chess matches and, of course, Anya Taylor-Joy's riveting performance, we definitely fell hard for the show. At any rate, this checkers board (or chess board, as we're preferring to view it) manicure is the perfect way to pay homage.
To get the look: Nail artist Betina Goldstein created this stylish look using Chanel Boy De Chanel Nail Colour, $28, in Black, along with Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour, $28, in Ballerina.

Mani of the Week: Cheery Skulls
Why we love it: We love Halloween nail art — especially when it's this cute! What with the bright hues and the floral motif, these skulls are downright cheery.
To get the look: Grab some of your favorite saturated shades for the flowers and leaves and grab a great black and white for the skulls. May we recommend Essie Nail Polish, $8.99, in Blanc and Licorice? Oh, and don't forget your precision brush!
