" Want to change up your nail art because it&amp;#039;s, well, Friday? Obviously. You&amp;#039;ve got to try this chic chevron design. Nail artist Simcha Whitehill aka Miss Pop shows and tells Cosmo exactly how to copy this geometric mani.   1. Prep and paint. &amp;quot;After you&amp;#039;ve filed your nails into the desired shape, pushed back your cuticles&amp;quot; \u2014 remember, DO NOT CUT THEM! \u2014 &amp;quot;and applied a basecoat, paint your nails with a polish that has a subtle shimmer,&amp;quot; says Whitehill. &amp;quot;It helps make your natural nail look extra healthy.&amp;quot; I used Deborah Lippmann &amp;quot;Diamonds and Pearls.&amp;quot; 2. Draw a &amp;quot;V.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;With a metallic silver polish and two diagonal strokes, using the brush that comes with lacquer, create a &amp;quot;V&amp;quot; as the base of your chevron shape,&amp;quot; she says. I used Essie &amp;quot;There Is No Place Like Chrome.&amp;quot; 3. Create a &amp;quot;W&amp;quot; with a striper brush. &amp;quot;You can get a striper brush at any art supply store \u2014 you&amp;#039;ll need one to draw any skinny or small designs onto your nail,&amp;quot; Whitehill explains. &amp;quot;That said, once you have a striper brush, dip it into a dark navy polish and trace the left side of your nail bed. Then, bring the line up along the silver &amp;quot;V,&amp;quot; outlining it, and then finish tracing the right side of your nail to complete the chevron shape.&amp;quot; I used Dior &amp;quot;Vernis Blue Label.&amp;quot; 4. Fill in the open spaces. &amp;quot;Using the striper brush again, fill in the exposed parts of your nail, aside from the middle section, with the same navy paint you used to create the &amp;quot;W,&amp;quot; notes Whitehill. &amp;quot;Then, finish with your favorite top coat.&amp;quot; Voil\u00E0! Now go Instagram those dope digits. Photo Credit: Elizabeth Griffin Follow Carly Cardellino on Facebook and Twitter. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
