The summer heat has finally made its exit, allowing a cool breeze to come through and remind us that fall is on its way. As we bring out the cozy knitted sweaters, trench coats, and this season’s must-have bag, I couldn’t help but wonder, what 2024 fall & winter nail trends should I be pairing my outfits with?
Today on the Style Edit I’m sharing some cute nail art to usher you into autumn’s cozy sweater embrace.. If you’re new here, The Style Edit is where I talk about the next biggest fashion trends seen around the web. Make sure to subscribe for more style tips!
Pumpkins, spice, and everything nice. I’m swooning over these manicures! I’ve included something in this list for everyone, from latte-inspired swirls, how to copy the Hailey Bieber “glazed donut” nails, go-to classic shades like burgundy and pumpkin spice, playful takes on french mains, and metallic accents galore—and yes, there have even been a few solid (but far from boring) neutrals trending for the traditionalists among us.
In other words, these aren’t your basic fall nail trends. So should you feel so inclined to pair all your trench coat with a mani worth skipping gloves for, I’ve rounded up the best fall nail ideas that I’ve seen online recently.
