Turns out, all that glitters is silver. Or at least for Jennifer Lopez, who wore a sparkling baby french manicure to the Los Angeles premiere of her new film, "Shotgun Wedding," on Jan. 18. On the carpet, J Lo held up her sophisticated nails against her sheer Valentino gown [1], the silver tips serving as the perfect complement to her bejeweled dress.

The baby french manicure [2] is an ideal style for a more glamorous look like this. Lili and Cata [3] salon cofounder Lilly Rojas previously described the trend to POPSUGAR as "your typical french mani but with a thinner accent line on the tip of the nail." And while the mani typically creates a clean and classic finish, Lopez bumped her nails up a notch with a sparkly metallic polish to match the glitz on her gown.

For major events such as these, Lopez turns to her trusted nail artist [4] Tom Bachik [5], who's also responsible for Margot Robbie's recent "supermodel" nails [6] and Selena Gomez's deep french manicure [7]. On Instagram, Bachik described the look as "Lip Gloss Nails with a glitter liner," saying he started by giving Lopez a soft stiletto shape, then mixing a semisheer custom colour to play off her skin tone.

Together, Lopez and Bachik have accomplished a series of fun styles, from chic monochromatic pink nails [8] to a festive candy-cane-inspired manicure [9] to kick off the holiday season. But no matter the occasion, Lopez always adds her own touch, as seen with these baby french nails. It's like Rojas said: "It's not your mother's french mani."
