Pedicure: the 5 colors to show off this summer From chrome light blue and neon blue, to deep purple

Between sandals, flip-flops and open-toe heels, hiding your feet in summer is basically impossible, so you might as well choose a nail polish that really makes a statement. And yet, in the end, the choice almost always falls on the same two or three shades: red, white or black. This summer, however, it’s worth stepping a little outside your comfort zone and breaking the monotony, there are far more interesting shades to try. Here are a few ideas.

Pedicure: the 5 colors to wear this summer

Chrome blue

The chrome finish continues to dominate the nail world, like the viral mermaid nails trend, and is increasingly taking over pedicures too. Chrome blue is the perfect summer shade: bright, playful, it enhances a tan and immediately evokes the vast sea we can’t wait to reach.

Jade green

The jade green is an unusual shade of green, but one that instantly stands out. It’s a cool and slightly vibrant tone, capable of giving character even to a super simple pedicure. It’s definitely an alternative to the usual nudes, perfect when you want to switch things up and add a bit of energy to your summer style without going over the top.

Neon blue

The neon blue is a true summer classic that, unlike more predictable choices, never stops being popular. It’s bold, electric and instantly brings a different energy to the pedicure. Against tanned skin it creates a strong contrast and becomes the true star of any look.

Deep purple

The deep purple is a slightly less obvious summer choice, and that’s exactly its strength. It’s a perfect alternative for those who usually love dark colors like black: it doesn’t try to be fresh or playful like the shades above, but it still manages to look great. It works especially well paired with contrasting flip-flops, like coral ones.

Barbie pink

Barbie pink needs no introduction: it’s bright, playful, a little kitsch in the best way possible, and that’s exactly why it works, especially in summer. On feet it becomes super eye-catching and instantly gives the pedicure a more lively and fun vibe.
