Are you looking for some cute vacation nail ideas to try out on your next trip? If so, you’ve come to the right post!

What’s better than planning for a vacation! Picking out your swimsuits, dinner outfits, beach accessories and of course your mani! There are so many cute nail designs out there that are perfect for your next vacay!

I love getting a vacation mani. I feel like once I paint my nails, the vacation is actually starting, who else feels this way?! Below I wanted to put together my favourite styles. There are so many options to choose from, from French tip nails to evil eyes!

A lot of these looks can easily be recreated at home, you don’t necessarily need to go to a salon! If you’re wanting to try out a matte look, I recommend getting this matte nail polish:

To be able to hand draw on flowers, we recommend these nail art brushes. They are incredibly fine, and help draw out really intricate details:

I’m Engaged!

A little life update I wanted to include in this post is that I got engaged! Chris and I went to Mexico and he popped the question in Tulum! See the first photo in this post for my nail details! It was such a magical night that I’ll remember for the rest of my life.

Below, I’ve rounded up 50+ of my top vacation nail ideas! Remember, feel free to pin any of the images below to recreate all of these designs in the future!
