With the first official day of spring being March 19, springtime is right around the corner, and will be here before you know it. With spring arriving in just a few short weeks, it’s time to start searching for spring 2024 nail ideas now that’ll match the season. Start saving your spring nail design inspo now to allow you enough time to not only make a decision on the color and design, but to also make an appointment with your manicurist!
Plus, people across the country should hopefully start seeing warmer weather coming soon (as per the early spring predictions made by Punxsutawney Phil and Staten Island Chuck, who didn’t see their shadow on Groundhog Day). And what better way to ring in spring than with a fresh set of nails that you can have to coordinate with your spring outfits? With spring being the season that will remain throughout the rest of the semester, here are 12 spring nail designs that will have you excited for the change of seasons and weather.
- Blooming Flower Nails
-
As the flowers start to bloom, so will your nails. This design has a clear base with beautiful pink flowers in the corners, which will match any pink outfit you wear this spring.
- Floral Spring Nails
-
As the TikTok mentions the creator’s inspiration, this nail design will pair perfectly with any floral top you want to wear as a part of your ‘fit this spring. It has a light pink base with light pink roses (and green leaves) loosely drawn on top. It’s subtle, but will pull your whole look together.
- Spring Butterfly Nails
-
This has to be one of my favorite spring nails I’ve seen. The beautiful butterfly nail design on the ring finger is so detailed, and the sky blue is fitting because when I think of spring, clear skies immediately come to mind.
- Lavender Sky Nails
-
Speaking of skies, this nail design is so elegant! It contains a shiny lavender base with purply-white clouds on top. Plus, two of the nails are ombre, which show the clear base morphing into the lavender sky design.
- Green spring nails
-
For those that are seeking plain-colored nails without a design to take away from the color itself, these olive green nails are a good choice. The olive green color goes with any brown or neutral-toned outfit, and the color reminds me of an enchanted, woodsy aesthetic.
- Short Blue Nails
-
If you like blue nails, but want shorter nails this spring, then this look is for you. The blue is darker, but still just as pretty. The length is perfect for someone who prefers nails that aren’t too long.
- Glittery Abstract Nails
-
Just because it’s spring doesn’t mean we can’t have glitter. These glittery abstract swirl blue nails really do pop. They are so flowy, and the swirl makes me think of the gusting wind in the sky through the meadows.
- Clear Floral Nails
-
If you want a dash of orange this spring, then choose this floral design. It has a clear base and orange, white, and pink flowers. The pastel colors against the clear base really stand out.
- Yellow Chrome Nails
-
One thing we can expect more of in the spring is sunlight, so why not have yellow nails to match? These yellow chrome nails add a nice shine, and can match any yellow piece of clothing or a lemon-themed accessory.
- Green French Tips
-
The first day of spring isn’t the only occasion you can look forward to in March. For those that celebrate, there’s also St. Patrick’s Day. This design features different shades of green French tips, with other nails having overlapping heart designs at the tip. Not only does this design work for St. Paddy’s Day, but it also gives off major Buttercup vibes from The Powerpuff Girls.
- Lavender French Tips
-
This year in March, we also have Easter for those that celebrate. This design shows lavender nails with glitter. One nail is completely covered, while the others have lavender tips. One nail also has a bunny, which is perfect to wear for any Easter celebration.
- Pastel Spring Nails
-
When I think of spring — rather than bold colors — I immediately think of light pastel colors. This nail design represents just that. Why pick one pastel color when you can have them all? Have each nail be a different pastel color (orange, yellow, pink, green, blue, and/or purple) and you can have a mini pastel rainbow on your hands.
