While some summertime events may call for bold and specific designs, Sienna Miller's nails prove the power and versatility of classic neutrals...
Though the 2024 nail trends have offered a plethora of bright summer nail shades and classic pastels, we've also seen an abundance of understated, milky tones cropping up - the likes of which, go with every setting and occasion. Case in point, Sienna Miller's appearance at Glastonbury where she paired a chic, minimalistic outfit (as is to be expected from the star), with an equally simple and stylish manicure.
So, if you've been looking for a summertime nail look that seemingly suits every event you have booked in the months ahead - as well as elevating any outfit - here's a closer look at Miller's go-to polish shade of the season...

Sometimes, as Sienna Miller proves, simplicity is key - and speaking of which, this nail look is mercifully straightforward to achieve at home...
