Spring is almost here, so we are ready for new, fun nail designs. According to celebrity nail artists this year gorgeous pastel shades will be trending. If you are tired of all the dull, dark colors that are usually popular in winter, you will be more than glad to embrace this trend. You can play with only one color, or go bold and include several in one manicure. Glitter is, of course, another way to get innovative and playful. Holographic and metallic details will also elevate a pastel manicure. Short or long nails, it doesn’t matter – this trend is for everyone.
Flip through the pictures below to get your daily nail inspiration. If you are in love with pastel shades just as much as we are, you won’t be able to pin only one mani.

Negative space, pastel colors, and a single line – the three biggest nail trends combined in one manicure.
Teyana Taylor added another exciting project to her resume. The star from Kanye West’s “Fade” video is about to open a ’90s-themed nail salon in Harlem. The throwback nail salon, Junie Bee Nails, named after her 2-year-old daughter with basketball player Iman Shumpert will officially open its doors for business on February 20. The nail salon comes as a result of Teyana’s partnership with one of the most famous nail polish brands OPI. Last week, the singer and dancer held her first press event where she revealed that she is the new brand ambassador for OPI.
The proud throwback nail salon owner sported a vibrant combo that perfectly complemented the ’90s theme of the place. Teyana donned a vintage Chanel satin jacket and bright green leggings. Her hair was styled in Bantu Knots that left space for the statement earrings to shine in full force. The singer claimed that she didn’t have time to get her nails done and rocked a simple red mani. Anyway, she promised to get a lit nail design for the official opening of the salon. Knowing her love for all things bright and bold, Teyana Taylor and her salon will for sure be one of the hottest Instagram accounts to get some fun nail inspo.

In a true ’90s fashion, rappers Missy Elliott and Lil Kim, girl groups SWV and Total, and designer Dapper Dan were among the guests. Teyana tapped the Harlem designer Dapper Dan to design the employees’ uniforms. The entire salon is also decorated in ’90s style with bright colors and graffiti all over the place.

It seems that the Christmas holidays were just a few days ago. We’re still not over the glitter euphoria, but it’s officially time to get ready for another fun holiday. Being only weeks away, Valentine’s Day is an excuse for all of us to get dressed up and look our best. Put on an elegant dress or a pair of jeans, but pay attention to your nails as well. Romantic Valentine’s Day nail art is already trending on every social media platform. You must’ve seen an array of cute designs so far, overwhelming your Instagram feed.
So no matter what way you’re going to celebrate this day, make sure to get a statement manicure. Some will have a romantic night out with bae, while others plan a cocktail party with friends. Either way, you’ve got a chance to pull off a mani that matches the holiday. Hearts are the top pattern you will see everywhere during February. So why not put them on your nails? For a minimalist look, just add a tiny heart on several of your nails. But if you are a lady who loves full-blown nail art, give yourself the courtesy to rock hearts in all sizes and hues.
But this doesn’t mean that cute hearts are a must when you do Valentine’s nails. To keep things simple, just avoid any patterns and choose a soft, gentle color that celebrates the most romantic day of the year.
Red is always the color to turn to in February. Even a simple red manicure will do the job. But since this is the ideal time to include cute patterns in your nail art, make sure to get the most out of this holiday. For those who are not huge fans of the signature Valentine’s color, here comes pink to save the day. Even glitter is welcome on days like this. Whatever hue you opt for, make sure is not boring. The sole purpose of holidays like this is to give you the chance to try things that you normally wouldn’t in your everyday life.
We rounded up the cutest Valentine’s day nail art you can flaunt for the upcoming month of love. Even if you don’t have a romantic date planned, a fierce manicure will have everyone’s eyes on you.
