Whenever Angelia Jolie makes a rare appearance, we pay attention. Because, of course, we do she's Angelina Jolie—a forever icon who has always had her finger on the pulse when it come to style. So, when we saw she arrived at Reefer Madness: The Musical last night in Los Angeles, we were intrigued. Last time Jolie was out-and-about she predicted what would become spring's most popular manicure. This time, the manicure oracle spoke again.

On May 30, the actor and her daughter Vivienne Jolie-Pitt were spotted at the premiere's red carpet. For the event, the 48-year-old wore a blazer with a t-shirt underneath that resembled a tie, accessorizing with large black cat-eye sunnies. Outfit aside, all of our attention was on her super chic long French manicure.

The French manicure may feel like a relic of the noughties, but it's making a comeback in a big way this year. From chrome versions of the mani to bedazzled styles, everyone's putting a spin on the classic nail art–even Jolie. On what appears to be her natural nails (a flex in itself) Jolie styled an au natural version of the manicure. Her nails were shaped into a soft almond silhouette and it appears as though she painted on only a swipe of sheer polish, revealing her natural tips for a French style.

Leave it to Jolie to have healthy natural nails that are long enough to be styled into a French manicure with the ease of a topcoat or swipe of sheer polish. Move over maximalist manis, the less-is-more nail trend has arrived for summer.

Although it's tough to tell what the rest of her glam looked like under her glasses, it seems as though Jolie stayed on the simple side, opting for little to no makeup and wearing her hair down.

In April, Jolie wore a cloud manicure that nearly every popular celeb would go on to co-sign (Bella Hadid, Anne Hathaway, you get the idea). Now, the manicure oracle has spoken. We'll be copying her easygoing French manicure all summer long.
