Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! I absolutely love Valentine’s Day! Mostly because I get to eat as many chocolates as I want without feeling guilty and because I get to spend time with my friends on Galentine’s Day. We take turns hosting fun gatherings on February 13th every year.
We have loads of fun every single year. Anyway, with Valentine’s Day, you will have people who love the holiday (like me) and some who hate it with every fiber of their being. No matter which one you are, I think we can all agree that our nails definitely deserve some love for the holiday.
Getting your nails done is such a confidence boost. It makes me feel so much better about myself even if my life is a train wreck, haha. I’ve already compiled a list of adorable Valentine’s Day nails for people who love longer nails here.
But for those of you who like to keep it short, this is the post for you. I’ve gathered over 30 of the cutest short Valentines nails you won’t get enough of. From different colored nails on each hand, cute simple heart designs, and beautiful conversation nails, there is something in here for everyone!

SHORT VALENTINES NAILS
1. SHADES OF PINK
I love this nail design! If you can’t decide between two colors for your Valentine’s nails, get different colors on each hand.
