While the official start of fall is still a few weeks away, our hearts are already in the season. Our Pinterest boards are all about Halloween, we’ve lighted pumpkin-scented candles, and we’re drinking spiced chai lattes. The only thing that could bring us deeper into the season is a fresh, on-theme manicure.
While a chrome fall manicure or an autumnal French tip can be sparkly or modest, going monochromatic with an earthy green is another an option. While reds, oranges, and yellows are clearly the season’s colors, the appropriate shade of green can convey the same message without being overly obvious.
From regal emerald to dusty sage, there are plenty of fall green nails to check out. Do you feel the same way? Scroll down to see 22 fall-appropriate green nail ideas.
“To recreate this autumnal look, select a dark, luxurious green tone that truly captures the essence of the season,” suggests Juanita Huber-Millet, founder and creative director of Townhouse, a premium manicure salon. While this emerald green shade would look great on any nail shape, we really like how statement-making it is on a coffin-shaped manicure.
With an earthy manicure, you can tap into the Virgo energy and feel more grounded. This one has a dusty green base with white and brown veining, creating a marbled look.
For a minty moment with a bit of sparkle, look no farther than this gorgeous combo. Apply a base coat (at least two layers) of a creamy, pearlescent polish, then stamp on a minty hue with a sponge to create a gradient effect.
When we think of fall colors, we automatically think of melancholy, darker shades, and this mossy green evokes all of those feelings.
