If you ever thought nail polish had to be boring, feast your eyes on these funky and fresh shoe nail designs. The [Converse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/converse-and-charli-xcx) All-Star hightop-inspired nails put a contemporary and eccentric twist on the traditional French manicure, with shoelace designs added to the white tips.

Customized nail art is a great way to let your fun-loving personality shine through. This manicure can easily be adapted to include your favorite colors and All-Star designs and patterns. Novelty manicures are also a great way to jazz up your look, if you're not into wearing bold and bright accessories.

I'd love to try out these sweet shoe nail designs, although I might need to ask for some help with the fine details!
