9 Pretty Valentine's Day Manicure Ideas That Aren't Cheesy

Valentine's Day is usually equated with various cheesy traditions: red roses, chocolate candy, champagne, extravagant dinner plans, and manicured nails with mini heart designs all over them. If heart nails are your thing, that's perfectly alright, but if I'm being honest they're not mine. The sheer thought of having little hearts drawn all over my fingers makes me feel like I'm trying to be someone else.

So this year, I went on a mission to find a way to participate in Valentine's Day festivities while still feeling like myself. That means a cool, polished outfit for whatever my V-Day plans will entail, and an equally elevated manicure to go with it. I'm talking solid hues of deep burgundy, nude pinks, and dark purples that are appropriate for the occasion without feeling like they're trying too hard. Here are nine pretty Valentine's Day nail color ideas to try this year.

The perfect shade of red.
This would be equally pretty on toenails.
If pink nails are more your thing.
Just barely there pink.
The perfect shade of nude does exist.
This color is so striking.
The perfect in-between of red and pink. 
I'm not even a pink person, but I'm into this muted hue.

Next up: These 11 manicure ideas make me want to grow long nails. 

Now this is a fun shade of pink.
In case you can't decide which color, wear them all.
A deep red will never disappoint. 
This reminds me of a beautiful glass of wine.
Nude is perfect for the girl who can't decide.
If you like pinker nudes, this one's for you.
Goodbye, chipped nails. 
To match your red roses.
Just a hint of sheen.
The perfect pastel pink.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato .

He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
