This manicure uses strategically placed silver foil stars on a wonderfully milky base to create an elegant look that works all year round. If you’re after star nail art that never gets old or tacky, this is the one for you.

@overglowedit3. Magically Color Sprinkle Nails

A fun and colorful take on a simple star nail design! To recreate this look, all you need is a clear base coat and an assortment of glitter stars placed all over the nails. Top it off with a clear top coat, and voila!

@overglowedit4. Sophisticated White & Gold Nail Art

Oftentimes, less is more. This seems to be the main idea behind this exquisitely elegant star nail design. A simple white base that features just a few tiny gold stars on two middle nails will be perfect for any occasion.

@overglowedit5. Shimmery Pastels

Another simple design that uses only tiny star accents to elevate the look, this time, each nail has its own main color painted over the entire surface. Some shimmery, some pastel, with a simple gold star placed at the base of each nail, work so well together.

@overglowedit6. Silver Foil Star Nails

These star nails are perfect for those wanting a bit more glitz but would still like to hold on to that simplicity offered by a milky white nail base. By using simple silver star stickers like these ones from Amazon and a bit of sparkle, this nail art design is so easy to recreate.

7. Pastel and Neon Star Manicure

Now, who said that elegant couldn’t also be colorful? We hope no one because this look will prove them wrong in a heartbeat. A combination of neon and pastel colored stars on a simple monochrome base will help you feel all kinds of joyous.

Another tiny gold star design, but this time on a perfect baby blue base color! This star nail design looks amazing on most nail lengths, but we do prefer shorter nails just because it helps draw the eyes to the nail’s golden centerpiece.

@overglowedit9. Silver on Purple Nail Art

If you prefer to wear your nails longer but don’t necessarily want intricate star nail designs that are difficult to DIY, this look is for you. An amazing purple base that almost looks like it’s changing color depending on the angle is topped off with one or two silver star stickers on each nail. Easy yet effective!

@katiealice_nail_design10. Celestial Star Nails

What are stars without the moon? Why not invoke the feeling of a moonlit night over a sandy beach even if the temperatures aren’t that friendly? Use a pinkish or a beige pastel color as your base and add celestial-inspired nail charms like these ones from Amazon to hold on to the summer a bit longer.

@overglowedit11. A Splash of Colorful Stars

This manicure is extremely simple to do at home or to explain to your manicurist if you’re not big on doing your own nails. It’s a simple look that uses the negative space of a clear base coat (or slightly milky) to make the combination of different-colored stars really pop.

12. Hearts and Pastel Starry Sky

This bligny-looking nail art is done without stickers, even though it looks so perfect you’d think it was. The silver details are a mix of star, moon, and heart outlines, with some of the stars filled out. You can use whichever monochrome base you want, but we do love this gentle violet color, as it makes the art really stand out.

@joelyoceannails13. Simple Little Star Nails

This star nail art is so easy to do even if you’re in a rush or your manicurist just had to reschedule your appointment. A metallic rose gold nail color, some glitter polish and a couple of rhinestones are all you need to walk out of your house looking snazzy.

@gabhy_nails14. Shooting for the Stars

This slightly strange star nail design will probably not appeal to everybody, however, the artsy types will appreciate the work it took to make it look this flawless. Featuring a face of a sleeping woman on the thumb nail, with her hair spilling across other nails, this design uses the black color of the hair to bring to life little star speckles.

@thenailladylincoln15. Playful Gradient Blue Star Nails

Even though the winter season is not yet upon us, it doesn’t hurt to get a little inspiration for the holidays. This design features a cute gradient design of blue nail polish along with some glitter and 3D rhinestones for added glamour. While just two of the nails feature stars and blingy accents, the other three are left sober in a blue gradient.
