Summer nails 2024 offer a fresh take on color trends, blending traditional hues with new, vibrant inspirations. Trendy shapes like almond and square are enhanced with a palette of blue, pink, and red, reflecting the fun and lively spirit of the season. These designs range from the simplicity of a French tip to the complexity of tropical patterns, providing plenty of inspiration for those looking to make a statement with their nail art.
Celestial Blue — Starry Summer Nights
As we transition from the sun-drenched days to the starry nights of summer, these celestial blue nails remind us of twilight skies. Adorned with tiny crystal embellishments, they mimic the first twinkling stars of the evening. The color is a dreamy blue with a hint of grey, sophisticated yet trendy, perfect for a summer evening gala.
These nails resonate with me deeply, as they capture the essence of summer nights — mysterious and enchanting. The subtle bling adds just the right amount of sparkle, making it trendy without trying too hard.
Recreate this twilight fantasy with CND’s Shellac in ‘Creekside’ (40523), complemented by a smattering of Swarovski crystals for that celestial twinkle. It’s a combination that promises durability and a mesmerizing finish.
