Thanks to celebs like Lady GaGa, Fergie and Rihanna for bringing back this popular style from the 1950’s and 60’s. More and more women are opting for this bold new look!

As far as nail art goes, stiletto style nails make quite a statement. They are basically oval shaped, but pointed at the top rather than rounded.
