The most popular summer nail designs incorporate patterns like stripes and chevrons in bright colors such as yellow, orange, purple, red, pink, blue, and green. Summer nail designs also often include gradients (layering two or more colors together) or glittering metallics for added effect. Other designs for your summertime manicure and pedicure are French tips, beach nails, and rainbow nails. You can even try out intricate motifs like hearts, stars, or flowers or focus on just one finger with an excellent design that makes it stand out from the rest.

Try out an animal print design on the one hand (like leopard print ). This is a great way to add some extra flair to an otherwise simple manicure!
Try a neon or pastel color to stand out in the crowd and add some extra flare to your outfit.
Keep your nails simple. Don't overdo it with too many colors or patterns—it will look messy!
If you want to create sparkly glittery designs for an extra pop, use a white base underneath your nail polish.
