What are the Nail Art & Design Trends for Summer 2024?

It’s finally summertime – our favorite season at Danni & Toni! While the Halloween and Christmas season are festive and fun, summer is the perfect time to show off everyone’s nails – with the added bonus of gel pedicures making our sandal-clad toes shine bright!

We are pretty sure that you also love this time of year, and may well be looking to stock up on some gel nail strips for time in the sun with your family and friends. But with such as wide selection of nails and styles out these, what is the best way to go about choosing your gel nails for the summer season?  

Well, this summer is all about bold, vibrant nails which make a statement, and convenient and flexible gel nail strips are leading the charge. Whether you are lounging by the pool or hitting the beach, gel nail strips ensure that your nails look fabulous and trendy with minimal effort.

 

Why are Gel Nail Strips the Perfect Summer Choice?

One advantage of high quality gel nail wraps is that they last longer than traditional nail polish, making them perfect for a busy summer schedule. Nail polish also chips easily during summer activities, and is not great in the water. But gel nail strips from Danni & Toni are waterproof and can last up to 2 weeks when applied correctly. They are also an ideal solution compared with doing nails at the salon (have you checked out the inflation on salon manis and pedis lately?) and they are convenient and fun to do by yourself, or together with a group of friends as a summer night activity. You’ll see that you don't need to be a nail art expert to create Instagram-worthy nails!

In 2024, nail buyers are flocking to bold colors, as well as designs with glitter and shine.  The trend for this season also includes mix-and-match designs, where each nail has a different but complementary look. Luckily, you’ll find many such options like this on our website, with many of our 28 nail sets including different styles to match in different ways.

All in all, 2024 is all about expressing your unique style and having fun with your nails. So, if you haven't tried gel nail strips yet, now is the perfect time to jump on this trend and let your creativity shine, especially with new products and amazing deals at Danni & Toni going on all summer long!

 

5 Major Nail Art Trends for Summer 2024:

1) Bright Colors - summer is always the best time to break out some bright colors on your nails. Especially at the pool or beach, you can’t go wrong with yellows, pinks, blues, and greens that might be challenging to pull off during other seasons. So take advantage of this by grabbing some fun nail styles!

Recommended DT Pick: with so many bright and fun color patterns to choose from, it’s hard to pick just one! But our team is loving the new Neverland style, which mixes a few different vibrant colors together with a sparkling, gradient look! It’s so fun and you’ll be sure to get a lot of compliments on them.

2) Transparent Nails with Overlay Designs - we’ve gotten a lot of requests for clear gel nail strips that let people see their natural nails, but that have a bit more fun to them than regular transparent ones. So, we’ve brought out some new styles for the season that are sure to please! You’ll find them in our summer new arrivals collection, and can choose which best match your personality.

Recommended DT Pick: our customers have been snapping up our new Shooting Stars pattern in big numbers since its release. And for good reason… these nails are subtle enough with their transparent base, but also add the shine and sparkle of large and small stars on them. Ideal for summer nights, you’ll feel like a star yourself when you put these on.

3) Mix-and-Match Nails – these type of nails are a deviation from standard solid and gradient color nails of the past. Instead, you’ll get a smorgasbord of different colors or styles in the same pack, that you can use however you like. Since each Danni & Toni set comes with 28 nail strips, you’ll have an almost unlimited amount of combinations when using these on different fingers.

Recommended DT Pick: Add some gold in your nails this summer, and mix-and-match your nails while doing it! The Gold Plaid pattern puts gold and nude split nails next to checkered plaid designs, each of which is unique. So you can put them around on your fingers and get a different look each time. A nice option especially for gold lovers.

 

4) Red Nails (For Manis & Pedis) - red is always a good nail color, and it can range from dark pink shades all the way to deep burgundy – and everything in between. This season, red nails seem to be especially in style, and you’ll likely see a lot of them on the boardwalk and poolside this summer. Danni & Toni has dozens of red nail options for fingers and toes, so you can choose from almost any hue and style.

Recommended DT Pick: for this one, we’ll go with a pedicure pick, in the spirit of shoes and socks coming off for the hot weather! The Almadine look is certainly a stylish one that you won’t go wrong with, given its deep and sensual shade that will attract just about anyone’s eyes.

 

5) Convenience and Flexibility - along with the freedom of mixing and matching, people enjoy the ease of gel nail strips for the summer season. Since you can apply them in just minutes, they are easy to get on with very little notice, or switch styles whenever you please. You won’t need to arrange any nail salon appointments and can have complete flexibility to do them yourself.

Recommended DT Pick: well, all the nails at Danni & Toni have this flexibility, but one thing that you’ll need to ensure your nails stay on well and looking amazing is our Premium Nail lamp. It is sleek, small, and comes with an attractive black velvet bag, so that you can take it wherever you go.

 

Now that you've seen the top nail trends of the season and some of our recommendations, you'll be able to embrace these gel nails to keep your nails looking fresh and stylish all summer long!
