16. Muted Army Green and Tan Leopard Print
Unleash your wild side with a sophisticated, earthy take on classic leopard print. Instead of the traditional bright yellows and blacks, this design utilizes a muted army green as the base color, with the leopard spots rendered in a warm tan and outlined in a deep, dark brown. The use of muted, earthy tones tones down the loudness of the animal print, making it feel incredibly chic, classy, and versatile. It is a fun way to wear print while still maintaining a grounded, natural aesthetic.
Leopard print is one of the easiest nail art designs to do by hand because it is supposed to be irregular. Use a dotting tool or the end of a bobby pin to place random blobs of tan polish over your army green base. Once dry, use a fine detail brush and dark brown polish to draw two or three bracket-like lines around each tan blob. Add a few small, solid dark brown dots in the empty spaces to complete the leopard pattern.
