The Black Cherry Nail Trend Is the Chicest Summer Manicure

When it comes to summer nail trends, there are lots of colours to choose from. From classic bright whites to neon shades and pastel hues, it’s definitely the right time of year to have fun with your manicure. That being said, as someone who wears a neutral wardrobe all year round, I tend to keep my nails pretty minimal and opt for soft nude hues and baby pink shades in summer, before transitioning to deep chocolate browns and chic black polishes for autumn and winter.

However, if you’ve read our guide to the most popular nail colours of 2024, then you’ll know that a certain anti-neutral nail colour is having a moment this season. That’s right, I’m talking about “black cherry” nails. Not only is this nail trend proving popular on Pinterest, but I’ve spotted the deep, purply red shade all over Instagram. In fact, just the other day I saw Lily Allen opt for an elegant black cherry manicure, meaning that this trend even comes celeb-approved. After doing some research, there really is no denying how stylish this nail colour looks for summer and beyond.
