Summer is a time to have fun with nails, and summer nails are perfect to represent the aesthetic features of the season in your look. The best part about summer nail designs is that they can be done with any kind of material: acrylics, gel polish, or even just plain old polish! These designs are popular because they work well with the weather. The bright colors make them stand out from other nails and are more noticeable. They come in many colors and patterns, so you can find one that matches your wardrobe or mood. Summer nail designs are bright and colorful . There are different ways to go about creating simple or complex summer nails and doing anything, from wearing a single color on all ten fingers to decorating each with a different pattern or embellishments . They can be inspired by nature or abstract . 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. If you're feeling creative, try painting one of your nails using a fun texture like glitter or studs to add depth to the look! The possibilities for June, July, and August are endless. Each year we let you know about summer nail trends . So, look at this roundup of some of the best and trendy summer-inspired nails that fit your style!

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.
