After the year we’ve had, it’s no surprise that we’re all finding ways to spark joy in every way we can—including fun, colorful nail designs. Now’s the time to release our creativity and just have some fun with everything from clothes and accessories to makeup and nails. If you’re ready to trade in your go-to shade for an unexpected design (temporarily, at least), then look no further. We rounded up simple yet eye-catching designs that’ll elevate your look all season long. Did we mention they’re easy enough to DIY? From unexpected shades to minimal designs with plenty of negative space, give this year’s hottest nail trends a go.
Colorful French
French-inspired manicures take an unexpected turn with colorful tips. Pick any color you like, but we may be biased toward a classic red that never goes out of style.
Negative Space Graphics
Here’s a design you can really make your own. Just use a thin art brush and let your creativity take over. If this look isn’t already all over your Instagram feed, it will be soon.
Half Moon
Ready to reverse the classic French? Give the half-moon trend a whirl and paint just the small, rounded shadow at the base of each nail. Minimal yet eye-catching? The best of both worlds.
Slanted French Tips
Another modern twist to the French manicure—featuring slanted, colorful tips. Just create the line you want and fill it in with a small brush.
Colorful Swirls
As if a work of art just fell onto your fingertips, here’s another design you can make your own. Just pick a color of your choice and paint swirly lines without overthinking it. Pro-tip: depending on the color and depth of the shade, consider applying multiple coats.
Multi-Color Mani
Single-colored nails are so last year—it’s time to dive straight into the color wheel. If you want to have fun with your nails without any intricate designs, try painting each nail a different color. Simple but oh so chic!
