Spring nail trends we love

What? Are you thinking that nude nails aren't a trend because they're pretty much a classic? Well, think again, because they are completely on trend for spring this year. They are also a great base to work from, because you can add some interest with other elements if you feel like it.

OK, so maybe she didn't vote while nude, but she did vote while rocking nude nails. Also, she clearly is voting in favor of nude nails for spring, and that's something that most can agree upon regardless of political party. The nude shade she's wearing here has a pinkish tint. If that color doesn't work for you, there are plenty more nude shades to choose from.

This color says, "Hello, sunshine!" It's bright, fun, and flattering, and it makes us want to embrace brightness. It's bordering on neon, and we're not mad about it at all. This kind of brightness would work with any citrus shade, don't you think?

Sorry, J.Lo, but you can't keep bright yellow nails all to yourself. Vanessa Hudgens knows a good thing when she sees it and isn't afraid to adopt a trend that makes her get noticed. If yellow nail polish has never been on your radar before, it is now.

So we showed you some nudes, and we showed you some bright brights. Now we're showing you a combination of nude and neon. In this instance, it's done in a French manicure style, and it totally works. It's a fun, unexpected take on a classic style.

This is a kind of twist on the bright color with a nude base. It's a bright floral with a nude base. It makes us feel like we're on a tropical vacation. Getting the nails is more affordable than taking the vacation, though, so for now, we'll take the nails.

Do like Jennifer and pick a pastel color that works for both your nails and your eyes. Most of the time, you don't go out of your way to match your nail color to your eye shadow, but spring colors lend themselves to this kind of pairing, so why the heck not?

If matching your nails to your eye shadow just doesn't work for you, try out a monochromatic mani instead. Pink on pink is cuter than you would think. You could do this with any number of colors and it will work. Pick a color, and then complement it with a lighter shade of the same color.

Matte pastel colors look great on Easter eggs and even better on nails. This particular manicure combines a matte trend, a pastel trend, and a different-color-on-every-nail trend for a winning spring option. The colors are just perfect for the season.

If you like the idea of a different color on every nail, but pastels just aren't your thing, you can still do the trend using a more subtle take like this example. Or you could even go totally wild and do the trend with super-bright colors. Whatever works for you.

We don't want you to feel blue, but we wouldn't mind seeing this blue, blue, and more blue trend on you. Even though blue might not be a color you normally associate with spring, it's having a moment on nails. Stick to your favorite blue shade, or do a combo of many shades of blue.

Guess whose pretty hand this is? It belongs to the lovely Selena Gomez. What would you call this shade of blue that she is wearing? Periwinkle? Or shall we just call it perfection? Perfection it is! Also, Selena could totally be a hand model if the whole singing and acting thing doesn't work out.

We told you that blues are welcome for spring, and a good ombre is always welcome, so why not combine the two? Blue ombre nails like these look sharp. We're loving the turquoise shade at the bottom so much. That's another great blue shade to work into your rotation.

The way that the colors on Kylie's nails just sort of melt into each other makes us want to melt. The length of her nails might not be practical for most, but a shortened version with those colors would look just as great. Such a good-lookin' ombre.

Can you tell this is Thalía? It is! Even if you can't tell that this is Thalía, you for sure can tell that the person with these nails has a thing for Louis Vuitton. If you've got a thing for a certain brand, this look might appeal to you.

Here is yet another instance of Jennifer Lopez expressing herself through nail art. Do you see how the top nails have the number 2 and the number 24 on them? Those numbers are there to honor Gianna Bryant and Kobe Bryant, who died in a helicopter crash earlier this year. Gianna wore a number 2 basketball jersey, and Kobe wore a number 24 basketball jersey.

Confetti always seems like a fun idea until it's time to clean it up. The best part about these funfetti nails is that the fun stays on your nails. It's like having a party at your fingertips 24/7 without any of the downsides.

Yes, there is such a thing, and you are looking at that beautiful thing! These nails are proof that confetti can be fun, elegant, and subtle. Who knew? We love how some nails have a larger version of confetti, while others are decorated with tiny, glittery versions.

It's no big deal if you don't speak French, because you can ask for a French manicure in English. Stick with a classic French manicure like Beyoncé is modeling in this picture, or let your imagination go wild with all of spring's nail trends to create your own version.

This double French take is too, too lovely. Other ideas to make a French manicure feel fresher than fresh are to do the tips in neon, pastel, blue, or glitter. Get creative, have fun, and enjoy spring regardless of what your nails look like.
