Polka dot nails are all the rage right now and I am not at all mad about it. They look fun and perfect for vacation and everyday looks. But not all color combos look good, some tend to look quite tacky at times.
I have been trying different color combos and I have found these 13 color combos to be fun and look classy as well. Because lets face it, we are not taking off our nail polish everyday like our outfits, so we need to wear colors that works well with our lifestyle – work, everyday and weekend.
And these color combos take the worry out of your head.
Chocolate Brown + White
Chocolate brown is the summer alternative color for black. It looks sophisticated but it does not look as intense as the black nails. Pair it with white nail color as polka dots and you can wear this color combo for days everywhere.
This is perfect for ladies who love wearing darker nails all year round. I love this color and it’s my favorite shade lately.
You don’t need the French tip design, try with just an overall nail polish. And add the dots using a pin.
Fun Blue + Butter Yellow
This is one of my fav color combo and I am wearing the color combo on repeat because it looks fun but the soft blue shade balances the butter yellow shade. You can add the butter yellow dots in a subtle way on 1 nail.
Or you can also try it on all the nails. The blue being the base and the dots being yellow looks much better than the other way round. This is perfect for everyday polka dot nail color idea.
But if you are headed for vacation, swap the colors and you have a chic vacation ready nail.

Black + Soft Pink
If you are a fan of the black nail polish then this shade will be perfect for you. Black base nail color and white polka dots create a high contrast and it looks tacky.
But if you pick a darker shade like pink, it looks more subtle. But here the polka dot size actually matters. Tiny polka dots look more elevated than bigger ones.
Black + Soft Pink
Mauve is a universal shade that looks great on any skin tone and is a neutral shade that you will look great in. And mauve with white polka dots looks chic and sophisticated. Its not too bright, but the polka dot bring a bit of a fun in it.

Light blue is another popular warm weather nail colors, but it does end up looking basic. But by adding bright blue polka dot to this nail design, your design looks fun and perfect for summer weather.
Since both shades are from the same color family it does not feel as much of a contrast and your nails look classy and elevated. And absolute must try nail color combo this summer.
