September 16, 2021
The arrival of each new season brings new trending colors and an opportunity to change up the color palette of your clothes, makeup, accessories and more. Perhaps one of the easiest ways to embrace trending shades is by opting for nail colors in the season’s hottest hues. Here, we’re sharing this fall’s must-try mani shades and our nail polish picks to go along with them.
Indigo Blue
You can’t go wrong with a deep, classic blue in the fall. It’s the perfect transitional shade because while it’s vivid and bold, it’s also deep and full of depth. ILNP Boutique Cosmetics in Set Sail is a vibrant indigo shade with micro-holographic flakes throughout to add a gorgeous reflect.
Magenta

The Essie Expressie Quick-Dry Nail Polish in Don’t Glitch, Get Better is a bright magenta shade with a metallic finish. The classic cream nail polish finish has been ultra-popular in recent years, but metallics are making a major comeback.
Olive Green
Olive green 一 a slightly warmer iteration of army green 一 is another popular shade this season. Opt for two trends in one by going for an olive green shade with a deep, metallic finish. Essie High Voltage Vinyl has a dark base topped with striking olive and gold shimmer which gives it a grungy twist.
