This Understated Manicure Colour Has The Internet On A Chokehold RN

When I think of spring, my mind paints a picture of blooming flowers and blue skies, especially when it comes to nail polish colours. Pastels like baby pink, and blue usually dominate the scene, but this year, an unexpected hero has emerged from the shadows to claim its spot as the season’s favourite: grey, or as the TikTok trendsetters call it, “stone nails.”

Before you dismiss this as just another fleeting trend, hear me out. We’ve all spent a winter wrapped in layers of grey, from the sky above to the clothes that shield us from the chill. However, stone nails defy the dreariness associated with the colour, bringing a fresh perspective to the manicure table.

I personally love this trend and think the shade is going to be one of my go-tos this summer. But since I know you guys like a little variety, here are a few gorgeous grey nail ideas that will match your aesthetic

A Shift Towards Subtle Sophistication

If you’re hesitant about diving into the deeper shades of grey, this set adds a little bit of white and glitter to keep things familiar.

This sleek design is girly and elegant at the same time, I mean who doesn’t want a little grey heart on their nails?

A little true to the original ‘stones’ that inspired this shade, these coffin nails have a gorgeous matte finish that is sure to make heads turn.

If you’re someone who likes to keep their nails short, this minimal bejewelled design is the perfect summer inspo.

This one is a personal favourite since it mixes two of the best mani trends, in my opinion – mini frenchies in grey. What’s cuter than that?

The epitome of stone grey nails, I think this is actually going to be my colour of the year.

If you already love the colour and feel like experimenting, this minimalist geometric set is to die for!

Grey and glitter? Yes, please!

Let your nails tell a story of serene sophistication with these matte grey shades and a pop of spring colour.

Since you’re doing grey anyway, why not go marble instead? Stays in the same colour spectrum and is wayyy cuter than plain old grey nails!

I love this one because it really brings out the harmony between the colours of spring and the stone grey – add a little gold for some contrast and people will be stopping you on the streets to ask you where you did your nails!

Last, play around with a few charms, textures and colours to truly make this colour your own.

The stone nails trend seems to be a statement about where beauty is headed. In a world constantly chasing the next bright thing, there’s something profoundly refreshing about turning to nature for inspiration. So, next time you’re considering your manicure options, stone nails might just be the unexpected twist your spring aesthetic needs!
