{Beauty} Three Nail Trends For Summer


I love a good manicure as much as the next girl, so I've been dying to share some of my favourite summer nail trends with you guys! Nail posts are my favourite beauty feature to create (much like last year's treat-filled summer nails), so needless to say I had fun with this one... I hope you guys like it! First up, I like to call this one the "I couldn't decide."

WEARING ESSIE'S "RESORT FLING"* AND JOE FRESH'S "NEON PINK"

You know when you're feeling two shades but you can't for the life of you pick one to paint those fancy fingers of yours? Yup, this look is designed to solve that very problem. And to be honest with you, of the three trends highlighted here, this one's my favourite... It's just so simple yet playful, and it definitely got a few double takes throughout the week — just saying.

Along the same vein, I like to call this look the "split personality," or the clever pairing of two shades per nail. This one also solves the age-old dilemma of not knowing what colour to paint your nails, but it does so in a more artful way. And if you're feeling particularly playful, try pairing this mani with your favourite striped top for a mega-matchy mani... How's that for alliteration?

WEARING AMERICAN APPAREL'S "T-SHIRT" AND ESSIE'S "BIKINI SO TEENY"

Finally, I'm partial to the dot manicure that we've been seeing a lot of lately (or the "Get Dotty," as I like to cal it) for it's simple yet impactful finish. Not to mention the fact that it's ridiculously easy to do — all you need is a bobby pin and a moderately steady hand, and you're in business!

WEARING MARC JACOBS' "LOLA" AND ESSIE'S "FIND ME AN OASIS"*

I hope you guys enjoyed what will likely be the first in several nail posts for summer (let's be real), and please let me know if there are any nail trends that you're especially loving these days... Happy polishing! xx
