Summer is upon us and there’s no better way to welcome the sunny days than with a glossy manicure. This season’s trending nail colours include warm weather mainstays like lemon yellow, sky blue, crisp white and Pantone’s colour of the year, Living Coral. But there’s also room for modern neutrals like pale moss green or a sheer glitter coat for those who prefer something subtler.
