We love a festive manicure as much as the next girl, and while our taste generally tends towards shimmery at this time of the year, we realise we may have been missing a trick if Instagram is anything to go by.

Taking the Christmas jumper trend to a whole new level, the more creative women amongst us have been decorating their talons with traditional Christmas designs, and frankly we can't get enough.

Using the #ChristmasJumperNails and #UglySweaterNails hastags, these ladies have been showcasing manicures which include Christmas trees, snowmen,  gift boxes, icicles, and holly sprigs.

And we want in.
