There’s plenty of inspiration out there for long nails and short nails, but the mid-length manicures often get forgotten. We love a mid-length moment, it’s enough real estate to make a statement but still practical enough for your daily activities. We scoured Instagram for our favorite mid-length nail looks to help you get some summer inspiration loading.

Ombre Mid-Length Manicure
Ombre shouldn't be relegated only to long nails—the trend looks just as good on a mid-length manicure. Opt for an almond shape to achieve an elegant look.

A bright orange screams summer, plus it’ll match the accessory of the season—your Aperol spritz. The square shape gives the mid-length manicure a unique edge.

Sherbert Mid-Length Nails
We love the summer sherbert colors in the mix and the way they're expertly blended. Make the look your own and dial up the color or go more minimalistic.
