From soap nails (simple and chic) to insta-ready (always on point), these designs will guide you on next appointment or inspire you to take a different approach at the nail salon.
Top 11 Summer Nail Ideas To Try
1. Elegant Black and White French Tips
Sometimes elegance is just simple and chic. This french tip style you can pretty much wear with anything and take anywhere – from gala, wedding or festival!
This design is one of my favorites of the summer, and of course you could do a different color stripe for each nail but I’m loving the black and white.
2. Blue Hemisphere French Tips Nails
For a subtle but sweet baby blue french tip style, this is a winner. I love they are not the perfect french tips but still a classic style as the same time. What I mean by not perfect is, their airbrushed but the polish line is near the top and the blue is cascading down the center to give it a ombre effect.
This is what I call perfectly imperfect. We love different don’t we? And just imagine this in all the colors under the rainbow.
3. Gold Rush French Tip Nails
This melted gold look is really giving rich girl vibes and bold! It’s perfect accessory without being over the top and this design will be trending and staple in 2025, and for years to come. Pro tip: These nails with a all denim outfit … “chef’s kiss.”
4. Vibrant Rose Nails
It’s time to change it up! This color for the summer is definitely a head turner. It’s rich, vibrant and says she has arrived. A similar color to this one would be DND Cherry Red. You can achieve at home with UV Nail Lamp. I a similar one to this and it gives me salon results at home.
5. Mixed Nail Design
There’s a richness in this design. It’s giving timeless with a hit of old money vibes. Of course you can choose any color with this design and it will come out flawless. This look is a bold and beautiful but an understatement. So imagine if you were to do black or classic red “sky’s the limit” with this design.
This would be the perfect bridal nail set because it would photograph beautifully! If I were getting married tomorrow this is the design I would choose. Would you wear this set on your big day?
6. Tropical Ruby Red Nails
The mix in textures are so elegant and the color is rich! When I saw this color I thought immediately ruby red and the design reminds me of tropical flower in the rainforest. The airbrushing says a (subtle richness), the french tips (old glam) and the bubble design says tropical for sure!
Imagine your nails on vacation – this sreams tropical vibes and will elevate your wardrobe, because it trendy and bold!
7. Soap Nails
These nails are for everyone and should be on your radar! You know how sometimes your at the nail salon and you just don’t know what color to choose? Try soap nail, it gives you a fresh squeaky clean approach, and a couple of shades that can help you achieve this look are – O.P.I Put it in Neutral and DND Sheer Nude #875 but the closest color would be BIO SCULPTURE CREME #67.
7. Yellow Sunshine Nails
This ray of yellow sunshine stands out. The lacquer or shine is amazing, but I am a O.P.I girl. I’ve been rocking with their polished for years because of its long lasting wear. I know yellow is not for everyone but never tried yellow – you take a walk on the wild side with O.P.I Bee(FFR).
8. City Of Stars Glitter Nails
There’s no hiding when you have glitter nails because you will definitely turn heads while glistening through the summer. To get this look, just simply use the polish of your choice, then you will top it off with Lights Lacquer City of Stars (it’s meant to be used as a topper nail polish). This is one of the best on the market right now with a five star reviews. Wear this in style in oval, boxed, or just your short on you natural nails and you will still shine and add boldness to any outfit.
8. Baby Pink Nails
This soft pink color fall under pastels and soap colors in my opinion. You can get this old glam trendy look in a similar shade of O.P.I Libson Wants Moor. This minimal look is fresh and will complement your outfit without being too overbearing.
8. Clase Azul Nails
This is such a fun nail design that was inspired by the Clase Azul Resposado Tequila bottle made in Mexico. I did a little more research and there are so many different unique designs. The inspiration behind this is amazing and I would love to wear this trendy nail design this summer!
8. Ombre Pink Heart Nails
This simple airbrushed pink heart nails style has a certain JE NE SAIS QUOI about it! And it’s one of my favorite designs … I know it simple but eye catchingly beautiful. I know if I wore this design it would challenge my wardrobe, but I would definitely be up for the task! Plus, I would seriously have to ask myself what are we going to wear with you today? Wouldn’t ask yourself you? Or do you already have outfits ready to go?
9. Pink Airbrushed Nails
This beautiful seasonal summer color is checking all the boxes for 2025 nail trends. You can accessorize this style with silver or gold and I see an all denim outfit or denim with a oversized t-shirts with this look. “Guaranteed to stand out” and perfect to help you slay this summer.
10. 3D Flower Nails
3D Flower Nails screams individuality! I love the uniqueness and it’s so many different styles to choose from. This trend says robust but elegant – and the shine is long lasting. It reminds me of the Hawaiian Yellow Plumeria Plant because of the shape and hint of pink in the center, and the gold just makes it more elegant. Elle Magazine has some additional information about 3D nails.
11. Mismatched Flower Nails
This summer flower nail art design says, I was walking through a field of wildflowers, picked a few and I was inspired. Plus, a tap on the shoulder to let you know summer is here!
A thought: I see her on a cool summer morning, having brunch at the cafè. She’s wearing something casual like baggy jeans with a cropped top and chunky tennis shoes – with shades on. She’s on her laptop while sipping some coffee. Do you see her? I do!
