Florals, Frenches, and the best lilac shade you've ever seen.
Pale pinks will always have a place this time of year, but why not try some spring nails that are a little more unexpected? Salons might not be as full as usual, but the good news is that Instagram is brimming with ideas. Yes, there are plenty of pretty riffs on pastels (lilacs and sky blues will be going strong for spring 2021), but also get ready for nail art ideas that are just pure fun. Think bright rainbow colors, playful takes on floral nails, and quirky patterns like clouds and cow print (yes, really).
More of a minimalist? Not to worry—we’ve got ideas for you too. The French manicure isn’t going anywhere, and if you’d rather paint your nails at home? Mismatched nails—the easiest nail art trend to DIY—are happening big time. Scroll on for some of our favorite spring nails to try right now.
