What Are Al Fresco Nails?
Dining al fresco is all about the outside, good food and great vibes. And in the summer of the manicure, it’s no surprise to see al fresco nails gaining traction. From Kylie Jenner’s adorable garden mani to the to-die-for fruit nails, these nails are all about what’s fresh and what’s cute.
“If al fresco is defined as dining in the open air, think of this trend as micro nail art with a lot of open space,” explains CEO of Nailing Hollywood, Mazz Hanna. “Al fresco nails usually start with a sheer, neutral base, and include micro nail art that varies finger to finger. Typically, the nail art is inspired by things you would find in nature like fruits, florals and insects.”
“I’m seeing a lot of the fruity nails in this style,” says celebrity nail artist Julie Kandalec. “This is about dining outdoors so it’s very fresh, with lots of butterflies and worms like you might see on a picnic.”
What you include in your nail art is completely up to you. Is the summer cocktail your favorite seasonal moment? Try adorable olives and fruit in your nail art. Love the farmer’s market? Consider adding fresh fruit and bouquets to your nail look. From butterfly and floral to 3D bee nail art, everything from the creepy crawlies in your backyard, to the fruit trays and cocktails at your garden party are the perfect al fresco nails in the making.
This trend should serve your interests and reflect what you’ve been up to this season. From grabbing drinks with friends to perusing fresh flowers, these nails are all about making the most of your summer.
