Princess Eugenie gave us major nail art inspiration back in 2012 at the Diamond Jubilee when she stepped out with these striking Union Jack-patterned nails.

Now, as the Queen celebrates her 90th birthday this weekend, we take a look at the best patriotic nail art designs you can rock in Her Majesty's honour…

We love this tribute from @nailarteame which not only includes nods to Buckingham Palace's guards and the crown, but also has a horse jump to celebrate the Queen's passion for horses!

A high gloss finish makes for a sleek look - mix with glittery shades like @hiddie for a day to night style.

We're loving @lackinsel's quirky tribute to London with nods to Big Ben, the underground, and even fish and chips!

You don't have to stick to traditional colours for a Union Jack pattern - we love the way @fromcrawlingtowalking has switched up with varying shades.

Take note from @___danieleribeiro and mix bejewelled crown designs with Union Jacks for an eye-catching finish.

For a subtle nod to the monarch opt for a simple statement nail with a crown pattern like @anaunhas.decoradas.
