25 Gorgeous White Nail Design Ideas

Now that summer is just a few weeks away, it’s the best time to sport some gorgeous white nails with these white nail design ideas.

This time of year is perfect for wearing white. In America, it’s become a tradition to wear white after Memorial Day. That’s because the warmer months are usually spent wearing lighter colors.
