Baby blue nails are having a moment right nowInstagram

While nail art is fun, a French manicure is chic and chrome nails are always a vibe – this spring, it's all about baby blue nails.

Giving that same fresh manicure feel that white nails often give, although we'll admit: Tom Sandoval ruined that look for us, baby blue nails are an easy way to spruce up your look and prepare for the sunnier days ahead.

From creamy pastel blues to colour-popping cobalt, if you're looking for spring nail inspiration, you've come to the right place.
