100+ Gorgeous Nail Art Designs To Try In 2024-2025

Sep 06, 2022

As we would all agree, creativity has no boundaries. Paints, brushes, and colors are not just meant for paper or a canvas. Creativity doesn't need a canvas. Everything is a canvas for it. And so, art has found a new canvas in our Nails.

Nail paints have been all around us for a long period. Seeing those colors popping out on nails isn't something new. However, for a long time, we have been painting our nails in a very basic way, just applying a simple coat of a color that we love. But an artist inside all of us is now awakening. 

Every part of your body, no matter how small it is, is an expression of you. Your nails might seem insignificant to you when it comes to you getting dressed or enhancing your personality. However, that's not true. Your nails are a part of your personality. They enhance your beauty. As argued historically, art in any form has always been a way to convey your feelings, your likes, and dislikes. This is why we see so many women painting their nails with things they love the most. It can be something related to their favorite tv series, a food item they love, related to a festival they enjoy. 

Nail art has become quite popular these days. Beautiful nail colors, exotic nail extensions, and exclusive theme-specific designs are an add-on to your look. It has become so popular these days that you don't need an occasion to get your nails done. They have become a part of your normal routine.

After deciding on the outfit, jewelry, and other accessories like shoes, and clutches, the next thing the bride decides on is the hairstyling and makeup. In makeup, nails are also something that needs to be looked after. The photographer might take a close shot of your ring and the mehndi-clad hand and if you are the bride with kaleeras, then it is a mandatory shot and while taking detailed shots of the hands your nails will be visible. So why not choose a beautiful nail art design that will go with your bridal ensemble?
