New Years Eve is quickly approaching, and it could be the perfect night to test out the 'Who Needs a Ring?' manicure by Jasmine Smith. Smith, who is the blogger behind style and beauty blog WebHauteJas, shows readers how to get this blingin' manicure at home in a few easy steps.

You only need four materials to get this fierce and bright manicure: a [nude nail polish](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nail-products), a clear polish, a cuticle stick and some rhinestones. First, start off by painting your nails a nude shade (Smith uses Essie's 'Jazz') followed by one coat of clear nail polish.

Next, dip your cuticle stick into a drop of clear nail polish, using that to stick the [rhinestones onto your nails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eye-bijoux) in whatever design you'd like. Once you have the look you like, apply one coat of clear nail polish to secure the rhinestones.

The Who Needs a Ring? manicure by Jasmine Smith is quick, simple and best of all, amazingly chic. There is no way that I won't be sporting this look on my nails this New Years Eve.
