Everything can be falling apart, but at least I have my nails 💅🏾. I, personally, love to celebrate the changing season with a brand new nail color and a fresh new design. This time of year means bright oranges and reds, iridescent leaf stickers and glitter everywhere! Here are 10 festive nail ideas designed by nail techs of color to give you some inspiration.

Fall Leaves and Gold Sparkles (@marienailz)

Clear gel extensions are a trendy new way to make your nails stand out. Stamp on some colorful leaves and a ton of gold glitter and you’re ready to take on fall with a new coat and a pumpkin spice latte. Nothing can bring you down with fingers this festive!

Burnt Orange Ombre (@fefethecreator) 

Definitely try out this reverse ombre nail look. A fun switch up from the usual French mani, the reverse ombre fades the color in at the base of the nail, leaving the tips to be a colorful statement. If you’re feeling really bold, try this little ring accessory for an extra chic twist to your look. 

All Black With Bling (@_linadoll) 

All black will never go out of style. Try dressing up black nails with some jewels to really make them pop. I suggest picking bling that matches the jewelry you usually wear, that way you’re always matching and you always look put together. 

Glitter Everywhere (@kdnails_)

Glitter nails are super fun and put you in a good mood all day. Life is a party when there’s glitter involved! Try an all orange look this fall to match the freshly fallen foliage (see what I did there?).

A Little Bit of Everything (@bettycakezz)

Now that it’s November, we’re in that weird space in time where you’re not yet over the fun of Halloween, but you’re excited about Thanksgiving dinner, and yes, it’s a little too early, but Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas” has already got you by the throat. Who needs to play it safe when you can celebrate all three! Green, black and nude nails with fall leaves and gems in Christmas colors? Perfect!

Pumpkin Spice Glitter Explosion (@grabbers_bycyn)

Pumpkin spice no longer has to only be your favorite fall flavor, it can also be your new favorite pop of color for your nails, especially when you throw some sparkle on it. 

An Espresso To Go (@flynih_)

All shades of brown are very on-trend right now. Whether it’s a flat white or a mocha latte, any shade of coffee brown is the perfect nude. Pair these nails with a ’90s-inspired lipstick and you’re good to go.

Plaid, Plaid and More Plaid! (@dallasalexiaxo)

Plaid is a great autumn staple that looks even better on nails. Try this classic design or take a look in your closet, because your next nail design could be on your favorite flannel.
