Tips for Simple Summer Stiletto Nails
Long stiletto tips are the first place a manicure breaks, so build strength with a hard gel or acrylic overlay and never use the points as tools for opening cans or peeling labels. File only the sides with gentle strokes to keep the point centred, and refresh your top coat every few days — bright summer colours show tip wear quickly on a long nail.
From a single watermelon accent to a full sunset ombre, these designs show that simple artwork looks anything but basic on a stiletto shape. Choose the colour story you love, keep the details clean, and let the length do the showing off.
