Summer is quickly approaching, which means it's time to dust off your favourite sandals. Because of this, you might be thinking about heading to one of the best nail salons or doing a pedicure at home to freshen up your toes.
If you're wondering what nail trends you can expect to see this season, then you've come to the right place. Here at Marie Claire UK, we are always speaking to the experts and keeping you up to date on the latest nail designs, and we've just been told that pastel pedicures are the way to go this summer.
That's right, celebrity nail artist Harriet Westmoreland just confirmed it, and told us: "I think pastels are back—and people will definitely be going for them on their toes this summer. We’ve seen a lot of dark colours, but these brighter shades are set to make a comeback."
