I don’t have time for nails anymore (though I think I may take my 9 year old for a mani/pedi this summer) so I can’t say what’s trendy, but here’s something I used to love doing. Not sure if French nails are still in but: instead of doing the really opaque white, try a pearl white. Looks way more natural while still seeming a bit elevated. I also personally always choose clear topcoat instead of the pinkish stuff; that stuff looks super wrong on my nails for some reason, like really really wrong. Not sure why.

Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

I dont wear nail varnish much but if I do, I go for vibrant colours in summer. I like things like hot pinks, tropical greens, things that really pop.
ha, my partner just went with a hot pink - great color for the summer!
Absolutely!

Pretty much anything green or turquoise and tropical! Example:
oo, such a great idea!
