Popular Fall Nail Colors
Each fall, brown, maroon, and burnt orange nails reign supreme. But have you considered colors that have fall fashion vibes? Consider navy, grey, maroon, and even nude or peach! Check out some of our favorite fall colors, including ombre and multicolor nail designs.
Brown nails are the perfect go-to in the fall, and we love this multi-color approach to a classic style. While each almond nail is *technically* brown, the varying shades give this manicure amazing dimension.
These green and milky white nails are a fresh approach to fall nails that are sure to be a major hit this year. We especially love the hit of gold leaves on a single nail. Subtle and classy.
If you’re looking for something elegant and dramatic, consider going with maroon nails this fall. This fall almond nail design goes the extra mile with a gold reverse french tip (half moon) that’s an absolute stunner.
We love this understated look for the fall. A rich navy blue with gold accent leaves on short nails is super cute and classy at the same time.
Orange is obviously a fall winner, but we love these patterned burnt-orange nails with a single black accent nail. While shorter fall nails are super on trend this year, this style would also look great on coffin acrylics too.
Ombre nails in the fall tend to look more like candy corn than cute. This peachy orange-to-white ombre nail palette is great for when you want to have bright fall colors without feeling like you’ve got your Halloween manicure in September.
Trendy Fall Nail Designs
Every year new trends pop up in the fall, and this year is no exception. We’re seeing more western and witchy designs, but there’s also a movement back to simple fall designs. Here are some of our favorites.
Western nails tend to innately have a fall color palette which makes them a great option for autumn. An alternative to black would be to incorporate more turquoise.
Witchy fall nails don’t have to equal Halloween nails. In fact, some of the best witchy nails don’t feel Halloween-ie at all! This long manicure is army green (another fall favorite) and features glitter, a single beige nail, and some awesome decals. 10 out of 10.
These V french tip nails have a few simple fall leaves and varying colors on the tips. We love how unique this is without being over the top.
You can never go wrong with pumpkins or plaid! We love this whimsical autumn design, especially those army green accent nails!
Short Fall Nail Inspiration
Short fall nail styles needn’t be boring. From simple, to cute, to classy, there are endless options of how to wear your short nails in the fall. We’re loving the trend of short square nails, but oval nails are a timeless classic.
Cute Oval and Almond Fall Nails You’ll Love
We love all these autumn nail designs on almond and oval nails. We’ve featured a few earlier too and for good reason. These similar and versatile nail shapes lend themselves to every nail design.
