Valentine’s nail inspo that will put your heart on wings

I don’t care if you’re boo’d up or not, Valentine’s Day is one of the dreamiest days of the year. Sparkles, strawberry short cakes, flowers, explosions of glitter. Strangers hurrying home after work holding bouquets all the way down the subway line. Magentas, silvers, and reds. Sexy little slip dresses. Red wine in the tub, old Sex and the City episodes. Cocktails and dim lighting. Sharing love with the people you. All of it. I adore it. Love in the air makes my heart feel kaleidescopic.

But what do I love even more than Valentine’s Day?

Nail art!

I’ve decided to play Cupid today and bring these two things together so that I could give you an official NBGA-approved list of dreamy, sweet, and romantic nail art inspiration for Valentine’s Day. Here we go.
