No shade to winter and its glitzy holiday season, but the start of spring feels like a much more appropriate time to wear sequins. Sure, a white, breezy eyelet top and nude manicure will always work in April and May, but when you’re standing in a rooftop bar for the first time in eight months, rocking a sparkly minidress and a matching glitter manicure just feels right.
If you agree, and you’re looking for chic nail-art inspiration to bring to your next salon appointment, look no further than our shimmery trend report, ahead. From silver stars to minimalist gold foils, we’ve assembled an array of glitter manicures ready to glisten in all that extra sun you’re getting.
Starry accents are the minimalist nail-art trend taking over this season. If you’ve got a steady hand, you can paint the teeny-tiny stars yourself, but we also fully endorse the simpler stick-on approach.
This gold foil accent is surprisingly low-key when paired with the perfect nude base polish.
A manicure so sparkly it renders the Kira-Kira app useless.
