90 Bright, Fun Spring & Summer Nails

Are you looking for super fun spring nails for brunch or vibrant summer nails for your next beach party?

From watermelons to butterflies, mermaid scales, matte textures to plaid patterns, there are so many summer nails to consider for your fingertips.

Vibrant, fun, bright pastel nails are perfect for spring/summer, as well as floral nail art, soft pinks, peaches and creams as well as yellows and golds.

But I also include nails for those looking for some slightly darker shades to blacks if you like something more bold in the warmer months. 

And did you know, apparently green nails, glassy sheer, jelly nails and retro nails are all the rage for summer 2024 (according to Glamour anyways).

Here are 90+ cute spring nails and summer nails designs and shades for you to browse for next super fun manicure.

What Is A Popular Color For Summer Nails?

Summer nail colors that are always popular for your summer nail designs include:

  • Sheer Pink: A classic summer staple, this year it’s all about lighter shades that are universally flattering.
  • Aquatic Colors: Embrace the summer vibes with cool blues, greens, and teals. These colors are perfect for those who want a beachy look.
  • Butter Yellow: A creamy, muted yellow that adds a pop of sunshine to your nails. This is a great alternative to a white French manicure and is a 2024 summer nail trend.
  • Mermaid Blue: Soft baby blues with a shimmery or pearlescent finish are perfect for those who want a whimsical touch.

Ultimately, the best summer nail color is the one that you love and that makes you feel confident. So don’t be afraid to experiment and have fun with it!
