This summer nail trend involves mermaids and you’re going to love it

PRETTY.

I do love a good nail trend and this one is so pretty, I can't deal at all. Mermaid nails are taking over Instagram and considering how fab they are, it's not hard to see why. Glittery, rainbow hues of pinks, greens, blues topped off with embellishments including glitter, starfish and shells not to mention the cool scaled effect of a mermaid's tail. To be fair, they're pretty similar to aquarium nails but that doesn't make them any less pretty. Here are some of the gorgeous Instagram posts featuring the trend.
