Top 5 Fall Nail Polish Trends

By Ariel Preciado on September 13, 2013

Fall is around the corner, which means fall trends are ready to mix into our wardrobes today! Starting small, let’s talk: Nails. Last year we had pastel colors and ombre nails, so what can we expect this year? Bold and bright; perfect for class, work, or a night out. Read below for current nail trends:

1. Dark Hues: The most popular being Oxblood: a cross between brown and deep red.  This color looks great on all skin tones and jumps between all types of fashion. Other colors to look for include: Navy blue, smoked lavender, and crimson red.

2. Metallic: Use silver or gold nail polish  if you want to add some bang  to your outfit. Feeling iffy about this bold statement, try out a silver or gold glitter nail polish to achieve a similar look.

3. Matte: One of my personal favorites, dress your nails up in this trend for a finished velvet look. Find as a colored nail polish or as a top coat for the colors you currently have!

4. 3D: Studs are making their way onto nail beds this fall, but if wearing metal on your fingertips makes you a little uneasy, try a more subtle 3D look. Sally Hansen’s Sugar Coat is a great balance that also leaves an interesting  texture on your nails.

5. Nude: Always a closet staple, nude nail polish is a must-have! When picking the right one, find a match between your nail bed color and your skin tone. Butter London, Yummy Mummy

Choosing nail color seems small compared to choosing an outfit, but the right nail polish color can help bring together or add an edge to your daily look. Which would you wear?
