Spring and summer trend talk is abound. Instead of discussing apparels, we ask “Nail Empress” Jade Tang to give us a forecast of the haut-est nail trends every fashionista and nail enthusiast must covet in 2021.

Jade is a master nail artist, influencer, and founder of nail academy Imperial Room with 15 years of experience performing in upscale salons. Her clients include celebrities and influencers throughout California.

Coming out of a gloomy cold winter, we desperately need brightness and lightness. Hence, expect airy and whimsical designs such as florals, single line art, swirls, and pastels. Tang also loves geometrics, contrast details, and nudes. Below are some specifics on creating the posh looks mentioned.

Flirty Florals - To nail this trend, create negative space with clear or milky base and add floral prints. A simple and timeless clear or milky base color makes a simple yet classic nail canvas allowing the floral patterns to pop. Skillful artists can draw various types of delicate flowers for the sweetest effect. Imagine a beautiful blooming garden on your hands.

Sensational Single - To get this look single line trend, apply a nude base and softly design with a single white or color abstract line. Nude is a timeless color. This two-toned approach with nude as a base is often a runway staple in Spring and Summer collections. 

Flashback Forward - Using bold designs of grid and checker patterns is the key to creating this 80’s flashback look with a modern twist. Bold and inviting pastel and rainbow colors will complete this look for any nostalgic fashion coveters.

Soft & Celestial - This cloud and celestial elements trend is sweet yet daring. To create the right look, create a “sky” by using a pastel or nude base and design with white clouds and celestial elements. This trend is perfect for ethereal fashion coveters as it is soft and optimistic. 

Summer Swirls & Squiggles - If colorful and whimsical swirls are your thing, you will want to nail this trend. The pretty swirls and squiggles are playfully dancing on your nails. For the ultimate effect, choose happy summer and spring colors to brighten your day and your nail admirers’. 

Minimal Spaces - This trend is about putting a very modern take on a classic involving creating a negative space. The creator uses any other color as a base and draws french outlines with a contrasting color. The choices are endless but a few great options are black, white, metallic, neon, pastel french outlines. Fans of minimalistic styles are going to love this. A simple outline of French tips goes a long way.

There you have it. These are the hottest trends to level up your nail game in 2021.
