Ignore the Weather Channel, because only capitalism truly knows what season we’re in. And it’s definitely fall, y’all. So deflate those pool floats and start hoarding the pumpkin spice. It’s time to pick out the fall nail art that will match your favorite sweaters.
Whether you’re most excited about peeping leaves, drinking enough PSLs to fill a pumpkin patch, or outdoing last year’s Halloween costume, these autumnal nail designs are a great way to embrace those cool, crisp fall vibes.
The Best Fall Nail Art Ideas
1. Fall Floral Nail Art
Don’t forget to put these in water. The nails, of course. We have no idea how to keep flowers alive.
2. Color Block Nail Art
Grab four of your favorite fall colors and some nail tape and you’ve got a nice color block going on. And a subtle nod to the Hogwarts crest!
3. Fall Landscape Nail Art
If you’re thinking there’s no way you can do this, just stop. Bob Ross has been training us for this moment our entire life and we can’t let him down.
4. Tortoiseshell Nails
We honestly wonder if tortoises are aware of their fashion icon status. We hope it doesn’t go to their head like every other 450-year-old we’ve met.
5. Cow Print Nails
The fact that we like these nails only proves further that we make our own fashion rules. White after Labor Day? Yep! Or before, depending on how you look at your calendar.
6. Retro Fall Nail Art
The ’90s may be having their comeback moment, but may we suggest stepping back in time just a little bit further? Not too far though. Modern plumbing really is a marvel.
7. Hedgehog Accent Nail Art
Fall tones, gold foil, a mushroom, a hedgehog, and a pumpkin all walk into a nail bar. This is probably not the night out they envisioned.
8. Pastel Ghost Nails
We don’t really come alive until September ends, but our nails do!
9. Fall Vibes Foil Dip Powder Press-On Nails
Grab these press-on nails so you can spend more time enjoying all these fall activities. But we are wondering where the “couch blanket burrito” option is.
Available on Etsy.
10. Autumn Color Palette Leopard Print (Matte) Press-On Nails
You may not automatically think that the leopard is an animal that screams fall. But have you ever been inside one of their dens? It’s like a HomeGoods store threw up in there.
Available on Etsy.
11. Witchy Fall Nails
If we look into the future, we can see that you’ll love this nail design. Once you put in your contacts, that is.
12. Mudcloth Nail Art
These mudcloth-inspired nails are perfect any time of year, but they’re definitely giving off some fall vibes.
13. Foxes and Pumpkins
These nails should be done right around the time all of our Starbucks fox mugs arrive in the mail. See y’all in a month!
14. Checkerboard Hearts
Next up in the game-inspired nail collection? Twister, because we like chaos. Stay toxic!
15. Orange and Green Nail Design
Sage green and orange are an iconic duo for fall nails. Notice we’ve evolved from burnt orange. Our baking skills are improving!
16. Gothic Glazed Donut Nails
Glazed donut nails is our new favorite nail trend. Pretty, yes. But they also hide any residue from our dozen a day habit we got going on.
17. Purple Flames
This is what happens when witches get a hold of the flame nail trend. Oh…what did you think happened when you lit the Black Flame Candle?
