There are so many colors and trends to try this upcoming season. There doesn’t seem to be anything brand new this year, but there’s definitely a return of some old classics (mainly plaid). While I’d love to tell you that I’ll be sporting leather, plaid, booties, and camo this fall, I can’t make any such guarantees. And since I’m usually a bit slow to transition into new seasons, I usually like to just paint my nails an appropriate color and then everything else falls into place…
Painting my nails is a quick and easy way to transition into a new season and stay on trend without feeling uncomfortable or breaking the bank. If I’m unsure about a trend, I find that trying it on my nails is a good way to test it out. Here are five popular fall nail polish colors. I’m a huge fan of dark reds, so that’s where I’ll be starting, but I know I’ll move on to metallics, greens, and dark purples in no time!!

I'm with you on the essie and dior for sure! It's hard to go wrong with deep red for fall.
I'm really loving the dark army green shades for fall…I need to get one soon!
Reds/burgundies, purples, and metallics are my life. Seriously, they make up like 50% of my collection. Have you tried all of these? One day I aspire to get one of those high-end ones just to look at. lol
Army greens are a favorite of mine for fall!
I know! My friend bought me my first dark red last fall and now I'm obsessed!
Me too. They're so easy to match with – and they look trendy yet refined!
haha – then this is the list for you. I haven't tried too many of these brands. I know and love Sonia Kashuk, Essie, and OPI. I want to try the Crabtree & Evelyn as well as the pieces of art in Dior, YSL, and Tom Ford!
Mine too. It's gonna be hard to pick which of these colors I like most!
Burgundy is definitely a favorite of mine for fall. Also, deep navy!
Ooh! I hadn't thought of deep navy. I have a funny thing about blues – I just never like how they look. But I have one (midnight cami, I think, by Essie) and it's almost black. I love it!
I love greys in fall
Me too! Though now I'm starting to wear them year round!
