fresh manicure trends. Here are a few of our favourites. – By Sushmita Mathur
She is a Wild Flower: Love garden prints and foliage patterns? You could now dress your nails with them too! Nothing describes our summer mood better than these pretty floral designs on freshly manicured hands. This aesthetic nail art has floral prints either hanging from the tips or blooming at the bottom.
My Hand Goes Moo: Just as cute as it sounds, this nail art trend will remind you of cartoon cows and milk advertisements from childhood. Black splotches on a white background — it’s as simple as that but will certainly have you loving it so moo-ch!
S0 Dreamy: Ever clicked a million pics of the clouds sailing by as you peer out of an aeroplane window? This is the nail art tribute to all those Insta-hit #cloudscape posts. Try these cute-as-a-button floating clouds nail art to remind you that the sky is not the limit!
Strike that…Reverse it: The french manicure — takes a flip! Why should tips have all the fun? So the bling action moves towards the bottom of the nails. Think of it as a glittery half-moon or a reverse french manicure — there’s no denying it’s pretty perfect!
Too Glam to Give a Damn: Clean shape, bold colour, and a pinch of glitter… oops! If bling and glitter is your thing, this is the nail art trend for you this season. Shimmer and shine baby – because, life is always a party.
Never a Wrong Time for Polka Dots: Big or small, polka dots for all! It’s that vintage chic, all-time classic party on your nails look. Groovy and shiny or just plain dotted florals, there’s a polka-dotted nail art idea for everyone’s own style interpretation.
Matte & Match: No shine, no design — just a solid colour to dress your nails in matte perfection. Easily, the most versatile in-trend nail art right now and not a chance of going out of style any time soon. This is your best bet if minimal chic is your thing to flaunt.
