8 Nails Trends You’ll Be Seeing Everywhere This Fall
Even though we’re still enjoying the sunny weather that summer brings, we can’t help but think ahead to fall. Fuzzy socks, pumpkin-spice candles, spooky home decor, and fall nails are calling our names. We love sporting bright lipsticks and nail-polish shades in the summer, but after a while, it’s hard to stop dreaming of all of the amazing manicures we can create with our fall nail colors.
Chrome french manicures, abstract designs in neutral tones, and “naked” nails are just a few of the fall nail trends that you can expect to see on fingertips and Instagram feeds everywhere come September. All of the trendiest designs will range from neutral, barely there colors, like beiges, to more autumnal hues, like reds, browns, and green, and even out-of-the-box shades like powdered blues. You can’t go wrong with a plain and simple manicure if the quiet luxury aesthetic is your vibe, but there are also plenty of fun, statement-making nail-art designs to play with if that’s more fitting for you.
Ahead, we asked a handful of nail artists to share their trend predictions for fall 2023, and they didn’t disappoint. Keep scrolling to see the best fall nails ideas to add to your mood board for the new season.
Fall Nails Ideas: Aura Nails
Like Megan Fox perfectly demonstrated, the coolest new trend is called aura nails, which “mimic the colors of the body’s chakras and energy color fields,” Rita Pinto, founder of Vanity Projects nail salon, previously told POPSUGAR. “It’s very New Age meets Gen Z because the colors of the manicures are way more interpretive and expansive than the usual aura-chart colors. I’ve also heard them be referred to as ‘color trips’ in the salon by clients.”
Fall Nails Ideas: Swirl Nails
When you can’t make up your mind on what to get at the nail salon, go with something abstract. “Think thin lines [and] swirls,” Rojas says. Swirl nail art specifically has been rising in popularity in recent months. This fall update replaces the flowers, smiley faces, fruit, and rainbow designs that we typically gravitate toward in the summer.
