4 Nail Trends to Flaunt this Spring
The gardens of the world are blooming and with the northern hemisphere awash in a fresh new coat of paint (so to speak), there’s no reason Mother Earth should be the only one in on the fun. Here are four fresh nail looks to get your manicure game on point before you step into the sun.
Calligraphy
Don’t let your meaning get lost in translation — spell it out in no uncertain terms. Calligraphic nail designs are a beautiful and playful way to experiment with digital messaging without the commitment of henna (or hell, even knuckle tats), so feel free to experiment as you wax poetic.
Symbols
Spring is a season of rebirth and renewal, so take that energy and lean into your witchy side with nails imbued with cosmic meaning. Decorate your talons with decals or hand-drawn designs featuring sacred geometry, sigils and personal symbols of power to celebrate your journey through the universe.
Square Tips
The fashion industry is currently busy rebooting 1992, so now’s the perfect time to welcome back big, bold square tips. A short and sporty style with practical application in 2018’s computer-driven workplace (something to consider if you’ve ever drafted a corporate memo wearing inch-long stilettos), square nails work especially well with matte nudes or high contrast French tips.
Basic Black
Black nail polish was coopted into the mainstream a long time ago, but unfortunately is often considered a cold weather exclusive. This season, don’t put black in a box; this most sophisticated of polishes looks amazing against bright, blingy jewelry and bold patterns. Best of all, it goes with everything. If you can, opt for gel — unlike subtler shades, black goes downhill fast once it starts chipping.
Love Your Nails
A fresh coat of paint is a fast and easy way to have you feeling as good as new. With all the looks to choose from this spring, why not give something new a shot?
