Romantic, seductive, lively or classic, shiny and interesting in any case. The manicure for the summer season of 2018 is dynamic and bold. Two classic colors are still fashionable for your hands and feet: a snowy or soft milky white, and every shade of blue. Try how different shades suit you and try to combine them with skin toned nudes, pearly grays, pale pinks or blues. Nude shades keep a steady presence in the fashion scene year after year. Women, who opt for a subdued, elegant style, love them, because they’re easy to blend in with makeup and outfits. Perhaps this year an appealing, full and shiny strawberry color will seduce you, which makes nails look gorgeous along with other fruity shades, such as peach, apricot, watermelon, lime, and orange.

Meghan Markle ensured that we’re going to wear mostly milky shades of nail polish, which is good, because they suit everybody and they make hands and feet appear neat. Don’t forget, the polish has to have a high shine: this makes them suitable for both day and evening occasions as well as summer parties. What would we do without the seductive color of passion, a sensual coral red that makes our hands the envy of others? Be daring this year and opt for a futuristic look on medium length softly rounded nails. Play around only on the index finger, where you try a stripy pattern on a monochromatic base.

Don’t forget: nudes, beige and powder pink are the main trend in fashion this year. To make your fashion choices even more on point, opt for golden, silver, metallics and glittery nail art. You won’t go wrong with red, and neither with Barbie pink, lemon yellow, orange or violet. Perhaps it’s Meghan Markle’s fault for showing us the engagement ring while at the same time flaunting the very elegant manicure in nude tones (the specific nail polish was sold out in most of Europe in the next few days). This year, we won’t be able to go past beige and light pink, milky white or powdery gray with a hint of pink. Mugler, Antonio Marras, Cristiano Burani and Emilio Pucci all marked their runways with a nude manicure.
