After a glorious summer, the weather is starting to cool down as we head towards autumn. Just like the fashion world, each season brings with it new trends and a new colour palette. So it’s out with the pastel hues and #Barbiecore pink and in with these five autumn nail shades.
Here are the colours to ask for at your next manicure appointment.
1. Dark green
Lime green has been having a moment because of the Y2K trend revival of 2022. But it’s time to pack that bright shade away because dark, mossy, forest greens are going to be everywhere this autumn. It’s the perfect mix of sophisticated and quirky.
2. Navy blue
Whether you like a navy that’s *almost* black or one that has a more nautical feel, this is one of the autumn nail shades that’s been doing the rounds on social media. It can be worn instead of black for a modern take on a dark, edgy look.
3. Plum purple
Rich plum purple is going to be replacing cool lavender this season to keep our fingertips looking warm when the weather is cold. Not only does it look great on its own but can be elevated by adding some gold accents or nail art. Fancy!
4. Dark brown
This shade has been trending for a while, with dark brown becoming the new black in the fashion space. The same goes for your nails! Colours range from deep, chocolate browns to subtle black-browns, giving you plenty of options to wear.
5. Burgundy red
The colour of your favourite red wine, burgundy is going to be seen everywhere this autumn. This is a deeper shade of red but is still considered a classic and is flattering to all skin tones. It pairs well with moody weather and a glass of cabernet sauvignon!
