2021 has something special in store for women who love painted nails but don’t enjoy over-the-top designs. Minimalistic nail designs will be all the rage this year. Cute, trendy yet subtle combinations of nude shades, black, pink, and other neutral colours with understated nail art are a fantastic idea of an everyday manicure.

3. Rainbow nails

Of course, 2021 nail trends are not all neutral and minimalistic, as there are lots of ways to incorporate colour into your manicure in a stylish and elegant way. Rainbow nails can instantly cheer you up and fit any outfit or aesthetic, and you can go as loud or as subtle as you want, all the way to rainbow French manicure tips.

However, while you don’t have to do it all the time, matching your nails to the thing you are wearing can be a fun and stylish experience. You can match your nail colour to your dress, shoes, lipstick, or even a face mask, given the new reality we are living in.

6. Accent nail

Going for an eye-catching design on all 10 nails may be too daring for women with a subtle fashion sense, and this is where the accent nail trend comes in handy. By going for one or two accent nails on each hand with a striking design, glitter, of vibrant colour, you easily upgrade your manicure and your whole look.
