Dark Feminine Florals

Chopped Cherries
Cherry motifs have gone from season to season without falling out of style, but to make the fruit feel more appropriate for fall, you should opt for a burgundy. This nail artist also added a drooping effect which gives a sullen feel that’s more fitting for the time of year.
Metallic Moscow Mule
Inspired by the cup that holds the classic Moscow Mule drink, metallic copper-toned nails are one of autumn’s top nail trends. They’re a warmer take on the popular silver chrome, and there are so many ways to incorporate the lustrous sheen into your manicure.

Glitter Tips
Elevate your classic Frenchie by ditching the white tips, and opting for a glitter. Nothing adds glamour to an outfit like a little bit of shimmer and shine. Everyone will be stopping to get a closer look at the festive feel.
Fab Foliage
One of the best parts of the cozy season is looking at the brown crunchy leaves that coat the sidewalk. You can recreate that picture on your fingers by adding leaves as an accent nail (or two). To spice it up, pair the earthy pattern with some gold flakes for an extra dazzle factor.
Modern Art Mix
This set deserves to be hung in a museum. The contrasting circular pattern replicates modern art you’d find in a luxe hotel while the muted color scheme makes it great for anyone looking to tone down her vivid shades.
Starry Night

Mingled Tones
If you’re unsure what colorways look best together, know that warm and cool mixes will never fail. A chilly blue and toasty brown are always a safe bet. And, it’s even more fun when the frosted shade serves as an accent.
Chocolate Dots
Coordinate with the delicious turkey and gravy on your Thanksgiving plate by going for this chocolate brown dotted design. It’s a super simple way to upgrade the trending shade and it’s the most dainty nail decoration for anyone who loves the coquette aesthetic.
