The cooler months are fast approaching, and it’s officially time to pull all of our cosy knits, denim jackets and oversized scarves out of hiding.
The change of season also sees many of us reaching for a new nail colour.
While the warmer weather is all about pretty pastels and bright poppy shades, autumn calls for a much moodier aesthetic.
Whether you’re looking for the perfect muted blue nail polish to match the stormier skies or opting for a deep red to draw some colour to your otherwise neutral look, autumn nail polish colours are some of our favourites.
Below, we share the nail polish shades we’re painting our nails with season.

What Colour Is In For Autumn Nails?
Deep reds, browns and orange hues have always been in for autumn nails and that hasn’t changed.
This year, we’re expecting to see the return of all of our favourite red shades, including maroon and crimson, as well as some dark brown, orange and purples.
However, this autumn, we’re also expecting to see some softer additions join the mix, including light brown, muted blues and greys.
