Just when we thought we'd seen it all, it's proven we definitely haven't. Cardi B knows how to pop off in the manicure department, and she has done it once again. Is anyone surprised?

Recently, she has worn long, red hair not dissimilar to that of the Little Mermaid, blonde highlights in a gorgeous lob, and bandana-print dyed hair, which we're still trying to figure out how she did. But we have to discuss her nails, too, because we know she loves long claws.

The "Up" rapper has revealed her latest manicure — and dare we say it might be her best one yet? She posted a video on her Instagram Story on May 9, showing off the manicure while holding a little flower, and we cannot stop staring at those nails. They are gold and stiletto-shaped with tips that seem at least an inch long. 

But that's not all. These babies are covered in rhinestones and chains. The pattern consists of a line of rhinestones, then a chain curving up to cover the nail, looking like a smile. The pattern repeats three times, ensuring the entire nail is covered. We honestly aren't sure how anyone functions with nails this long and sharp, but we are obsessed with them nonetheless.

Along with the Instagram Story, she posted a few Instagram photos with the same nails, and it appears that they were worn at a Mother's Day celebration with her family. Her hair is in a curly '70s hairdo with a middle part, and for makeup, she's in eyeliner and false lashes, which we can tell from zooming in and sleuthing through the pictures.

Although the celebration looked pretty casual — at least for Cardi's definition of the word — we are hoping she dresses up these nails on a night out pretty soon. Because if we know Cardi B, we know she'll figure out better than anyone how to dress this mani up.
