Say goodbye to bright pinks and pastels; it is officially fall! We need to break out our favorite plums and grays for this season’s best nail looks! Below are some of the best fall nail colors that you need in order to survive this semester.

My Private Jet (OPI)

With this color, you will be sporting a different shade depending on the lighting. The polish contains a gray, black, brown and green undertone shifting with the time of the day. It has a slight sparkle, which goes perfectly with any outfit!

Sweater Girl (Essie)

This shade is a great mix between a plum, mauve and taupe shade. It looks beautiful on all skin tones and the name reminds us that sweater weather is better weather.

Taupe-less Beach (OPI)

The name says it all! This taupe shade is the perfect cool tone for the fall months. It is a great version of a nude polish, without going completely bland. And it reminds us of the sandy beach!

I Cannoli Wear OPI (OPI)

Boston is known for some of the best cannoli! So, why not wear the shade on your nails?  This cream white color is bold, but also adds a clean and neat feel to a typical white polish.

Crackling Embers (Whim)

Sitting by a warm and cozy fire is everything we ever want for fall. Having your nails match the colors of the fire’s embers is even better! This rich, burnt orange shade has slight hints of red and brown to make it deep for the cool weather.

Grandeur (Formula X)

Blues can be difficult to pull off. This Formula X shade from Sephora is the perfect blend of a dark navy blue shade. It gives us the dark nail look we all want for fall, but still has the blue component, which is a great spin on wearing a black or plum!

Have fun with these fall nail colors! It is the one thing that you can change up without being nervous to take risks!
