Happy Saturday and Happy First Day of Summer! Last month I shared with you the top trending summer nail colors for this summer. Ever since then I haven’t been able to stop painting and repainting my nails a new summer shade (or a combination of a few summer shades). If you caught my latest Friday Favorites I showed you a serious summer nail inspo I found on Pinterest and have been in love with (and totally copying). You really gotta love Pinterest, it’s always full of the best inspiration for literally everything! Today I want to show you some beautiful summer nails so you can see exactly how you can mix and match your colors to achieve the summer nails vibe you desire. Enjoy!

Cool Blues
Cool blues are trending for this summer and they’ll have you dreaming of clear skies and ocean views while sporting your favorite denim cutoffs. Try a dusty, slate, or pastel sea blue (or give all of them a try at once) for a cool and sophisticated summer nail vibe. Try Essie’s Air Dry.
Mellow Yellow
A soft, pale yellow is a perfect color to complement your sunkissed summer skin! Vibrant enough to make a bold summer statement, but subtle enough to wear every day for all occasions. Try Busy Beeline
Reds + Corals
It’s not officially summer without some red hot nails! Add a white star just like below for a major Fourth of July vibe! Or opt for a bright coral that’s sure to keep you feeling “just peachy” all summer long! For red try Rock The Runway and for a coral give Got Myself into a Jam-balaya a try!
Barely There Pinks
For this summer you can find barely-there pinks creating a clean and sophisticated look. Perfect for your special summer occasions. Check out Sabrina for a subtle pink touch!
Pure White
A pure white manicure is always a good idea, no matter the season. But atop your sunkissed skin, your bright white nails will POP! Check out Well, Well, Well!
Soft Lavenders
Just like the pure whites above, the soft, pale lavenders pop against your glowing skin. Soft lavender keeps your nails neutral with just a hint of fun summer color. Give Hue Is The Artist a try!
The Metallics
Metallic pink and gold are making a shimmering statement this summer. Wear alone or on top of your favorite summer shade for a delicate and soft metallic shimmer! Or just add a touch of metallic by painting a nail or two on each hand. Check out Drippin’ Gold!
