We love a fun summer style trend, and as it turns out, so do our favorite celebs. The latest on our radar? Polka dots, which are currently hotter than the weather. So far we’ve seen dotted looks everywhere, from Olivia Rodrigo’s shorts to Kylie Jenner’s bikini-and-capri matching set and Hailey Bieber’s cool capris.
Dua Lipa is the newest celeb to get on board, but with a summer manicure. On Instagram, Lipa shared her French manicure that strays from the classic white tip. Rather, it seems she’s gone with black tips with a nude base for a moody mani. Then she’s added white polka dots on top of the black Frenchie.
Our favorite part of this look? Her nails don’t all look the same. While some are covered in white dotting, others are dotted just on the black French tip. The black-and-white tuxedo look is an instant classic. There’s just something about a mismatched mani that’s so effortlessly “cool girl.”
Currently on break from her Radical Optimism world tour, Dua Lipa seems to be making the most of it. We initially spotted her tuxedo polka-dot nails during her summery Mediterranean vacation, and then we spotted them again in Paris, where she attended the Schiaparelli haute couture show on July 7. For what it’s worth, she wore a white feathered gown to the show (bridal inspiration, anyone?). This, of course, all comes on the heels of her June announcement that she is engaged to Callum Turner.

Dua Lipa isn’t the only one wearing polka-dot nails this summer. Sabrina Carpenter showed off a white polka-dot mani for the music video of her latest single, “Manchild” (courtesy of celeb nail artist Zola Ganzorigt) while Bieber has worn not one but two polka-dot manicures (both a natural-nail-inspired glass polka-dot mani and a lemon drop mani.) Cardi B also wore a black-and-white set for the July Fourth weekend.
