Since the Rio Olympics began, we've seen a plethora of fashion and beauty looks that have given a lot to talk about, from Michael Phelps' lighted jacket to the spectacular crystal embroidered leotards of the US gymnastics team. Olympic athletes are known for having to achieve perfection in the sport, and at these Olympics it appears that this applies even to what appears to be the most-viewed beauty trend in Rio: Olympic manicures.
Athletes from around the world have shown their patriotism by wearing the most colorful and fun manicures that show from the flags of each country and the tones of them to the logo of the Olympics. Here are our favorite looks. What look do you think should take the gold medal?
