We consulted the experts to find the cutest pedicure colors for spring so that you can give your toes some TLC right at home this season.
Spring has officially sprung, and while we all tend to focus more on the cutest fashion trends and manicures we can rock when the weather gets warmer, there's one spring beauty staple that is often overlooked: pedicures.
Fall and winter pedicures are all about moody colors, but warmer temperatures mean we often ditch sneakers and boots for sandals and clogs, which in turn usually translates to toes out. Whether you opt for kitten heel flip flops or Birkenstocks, having the right pedicure color can take a casual 'fit from basic to elevated with little to no effort, since pedis do last way longer than manis. If you are unsure about what color to choose, fret not. We've consulted the experts to answer your most pressing questions and found the cutest pedicure colors so you can give your toes some TLC right at home, including tips on transitioning from winter. Ready to land on the perfect pedi color? Let's dive in! Natalie Minerva, a celebrity nail artist and OPI global ambassador based in LA Ami Streets, a celebrity manicurist based in London Gina Edwards, a celebrity manicurist and KISS Nails and imPRESS Mani brand ambassador 1. Milky Whites Milk nails have been having a moment for months, so it's no surprise that they would also work well for pedicures. “When it comes to color for spring, look for evolving tones and finishes. Pantone’s Cloud Dancer color of the year gives a fresh and sheerer take on bright white,” Streets says. Both Streets and Minerva are fans of a sheer white, like the uber-popular Funny Bunny, for those looking for a sleek take. If you want a simpler option, the KISS press-on toenails in white could also be a time saver. You can also add a twist with classic French tips. “A French pedicure using KISS press on toenails is a spring staple because it’s clean, timeless, and effortlessly polished,' Edwards says. 2. All Pink Everything In the same realm as milk nails, we find pink pedis. However, you don't have to opt for baby pink to stay trendy. “Hot pink, baby pink, sparkly pink: it all works for the spring-summer months!” Minerva says, reinforcing the idea that barbiecore is alive and well. “Pink is my typical go-to pedicure for me personally, and I usually lean in the softer world like It’s a Girl or Cotton Candied Clawz.” For spring specifically, Streets says the paler the better. “Pale pastels are reimagined in illuminator-style polishes ,” she explains, adding that “a forever favorite and my go-to for a sheer high shine rosy pink glow” is Dior's Nail Glow. 3. Peachy Oranges Orange is one of the colors we mostly associate with warmer weather. Once spring rolls around, you can ease into the citrusy shade with a more muted peachy take. “Peach colors sit right between pink and orange, which makes it incredibly wearable,” Edwards says, “it has the softness of a pastel but just enough warmth to feel alive and sun-kissed!” Streets says a “soft peach” is a great “strong choice” for this spring, since it brings “warmth and a healthy glow that feels more alive than traditional beiges or pinks.” If you want to manifest summer or live in a hotter climate, feel free to go all in early. Orange is kind of a fun and quirky twist on a fresh pedicure,” Minerva says. “It’s not the norm, which I like! Silicon Valley Girl by OPI would be a really cute summery orange.” 4. Soft Corals In between pinks and oranges, there's coral—one of the most quintessential spring-summer shades of all time. “I will forever correlate a coral pedicure with growing up on the beach in the early 2000s. It’s very throwback to me, which I love,” Minerva shares, picking Suzi is My Avatar as her favorite shade in this family. 5. Baby and Grayish Blues If you want a pop of color but prefer something a bit more subtle than peach or coral, baby blues are the way to go. “Baby Blue is a cute way to have a light tone on your toes that isn’t white. This way, you get a little color while still having the impact of something bright. Try It’s a Boy on your toes, it’s so flattering!” Minerva says. If you want to give it an edge, try adding some chrome. “Icy blue, especially in a chrome finish, adds a fresh, almost glass-like quality that works beautifully in spring light,” Streets says, adding that “muted or ‘dirty’ pastels like gray-blue offer a more editorial, fashion-led take on color that elevates a pedicure beyond the expected.” Her favorite in this pale gray-blue area is Chanel's Muse. 6. Violet Hours One often underrated spring pedi color is violet. “I’m wearing Vogue En Violet as my current pedicure, and I am in love with it,” Minerva shares, making a case for the shade. “This is actually my second time in a row wearing this color. It feels very young and sweet.” If you want a softer spring version, fret not. “Instead of a solid lilac, a milky lavender with a semi-sheer finish feels more current and wearable,” Streets says. “Jelly rose, or sheer blush tones, also align perfectly with the glazed trend, giving a translucent, juicy look.” 7. Wear Your Greens “Soft greens like pistachio or sage are having a big moment because they mimic the fresh greenery of early spring that we all have been waiting for,” Edwards says, and Streets agrees. “Pistachio green is a standout this season, offering a softer, more fashion-forward alternative to mint or lime.” However, if you want to claim summer energy earlier, feel free to go for lime green already. “Any neon in summer will be eye-catching, especially a lime,” Minerva says, picking RapiDry Screen-Grab Green as her go-to. “If you have fun, bright swimwear you are rocking, this is a great combo.” 8. Chrome Silvers Chrome manis have been on the up, and chrome pedis are following suit this spring. “A chrome pedicure will always be sleek to me,” Minerva says. “I think it’s nice because it adds some flair, and it looks really good with a pair of heels or open-toed sandals. OPI’s Chrome Clawz would be so chic for this look.” 9. Mellow Yellow Another quintessential spring and summer color is yellow — it is the color we associate with sunshine, after all! However, people have been gravitating towards softer, muted yellows too this year. “Yellow is just a very happy color and cute for this season,” Minerva says. “For myself, I might choose a more butter yellow like OPI’s Daffodil Duck Walk.' Edwards agrees, “Buttery yellow reflects the warmth and renewal of the season and pairs beautifully with a lighter spring wardrobe.” 10. Brown Is Never a Bad Idea If color is not your cup of tea and you don't want to stick to white, brown is a perennial choice that also works well for spring. “For those that still favor a bold choice, shades of brown are still going strong and look super chic as a pedicure color,” Streets says, sharing that her favorite rich chocolate brown is Kure Bazaar's Ganache. 11. Passion Reds “Red is forever timeless, no matter what the season!” says Minerva. However, not all reds are made equally, and that should be taken into account when picking the right one. For spring, you want to keep it more cool-toned, whereas for summer, you want to lean brighter. “Maybe I’ll choose a tomato red like OPI’s Cajun Shrimp instead of something with more blue undertones,” Minerva shares.
