Ah, March. Spring is theoretically here (those in Boston might disagree), the sun has stopped setting at 4pm, and wildflowers are starting to emerge. While it’s tempting to paint your nails green this month with holidays like St. Patrick’s Day, there’s plenty more March nail ideas out there.
For instance, you could make King Midas proud by dipping your nails in gold for the Oscars or finally decorate them with that pie nail art you’ve been eyeing since two Thanksgivings ago.
Or, celebrate Women’s History Month by emblazoning them with the visage of a woman you’ve always admired.
Maybe not Yzma again, though.
24 Nail Designs to Try This March
1. Green French Manicure
A French mani, but make it Spring. Then hop down to Luv Nails & Spa to get yours done.
2. St. Patrick’s Day Rainbow Nails
St Patty’s Day nail art can go in a lot of different directions, but we like the one that ends with gold at the end of the rainbow. And, apparently at the beginning of it too with help from Color Street and this creative nail artist.
3. Green Color-Blocked Nails
It’s easy being green. As long as you have a really steady hand. Or nail striping tape. Or both.
4. Shimmery Green and Gold Nails
We may have audibly gasped when we saw this iridescent green and gold nails. But like a tree falling in the forest, you’ll never know. Oh. Erm.
5. Shamrock Nail Art
If your nail painting skills match ours, make your own luck using a nail stamping plate instead. Or shamrock stickers. More time to pick clovers, less time spent picking nail polish off your cuticles.
6. Oreo Nails
You dip, we dip, you give us your Oreos. Unless they’re the Swedish Fish-flavored ones. Then, uh, nevermind. Art by The Nail Shack.
7. Cookies and Creme Oreo Nail Art
What do you mean you didn’t know Oreo Day was March 6th? Thankfully, Nail Dacci is here to help.
8. Gold Stiletto Nails
Look, you might not be walking the red carpet at the Oscars this year, but with this gold inspo by Minea Bergström there’s no reason your nails can’t look like they are. Thing, where’d you go?
9. Golden Nail Design
These gold chrome and glitter gold nails by the YS Studio look like they’re ready to hold a Cadbury egg. Or, a statute of a tiny gold man. One of those is tastier than the other.
10. Gold 3D Nail Art
All that glitters isn’t gold. In this case it’s nail polish, so please stop trying to drag us to the pawn shop.
11. Pi Day Nails
So that Aronofsky movie was all about nail art? Now it all makes sense. If you want to recreate Flight of Whismy‘s look, use Now & Zen’s Holographic Shimmer nail polish and this nail stamping plate.
12. Pie Day Nails
With a selection like this, it’s hard to choose a favorite. So we won’t. We’ll choose 3.14 of them.
13. Blueberry Pie Nails
We’re really more cake people than pie people. Still, that blueberry pie looks pretty tasty. There goes us indulging in our nail biting habit again.
14. Green Magic 8 Ball Nail Art
How come every time we ask the Magic 8 Ball what we should order for dinner it just says “Yes”? Nails by Kaseyy. Food by :shakes again:
16. Waffle Nails
We’re pretty sure that waffle cones still count for Waffle Day (March 25). And if not, just consider us rule breakers. Except when it comes to the Oxford comma.
17. Pisces Season Nails
This London-based nail artist captured the Pisces constellation on these pretty nails. Leo, how’d you get in here?
18. Pisces Nail Art
Ready to swim with the fishes? We hear they’re really friendly! Gorgeous nail art by Mandy.
19. Spooky Pisces Nails
Watch out. These are a bit bony.
20. Green Pisces Nail Art

21. Frida Kahlo Nails
For Women’s History Month, this Frida Kahlo nail art celebrates the work of the incredible artist. And this incredible nail artist.
22. Girl Scout Cookie Nail Art
It’s Girl Scout Cookie season. Show your loyalty to your favorite cookie with these. :cough: Thin Mints :cough:
23. Floral Spring Nails
Ruth’s cherry blossoms are giving April showers bring May flowers. Hold your horses, guys, we’re not even though March yet.

Are those hibiscus? Pansies? Snapdragons? Welp, looks like skipping botany class has finally caught up with us.
