Glazed donut manicures of every color were the staple of the last couple of seasons, but this summer season is taking shape and appears to be heavily inspired by our favorite fruits. We've already seen how lemonade nails have altered trends with their bright and vibrant yellow hues, and this has opened the way for even more "edible" nail looks to hit the scene.

No matter the tone of the colors, this combination is one to watch this summer season.
