When you think of fall beauty, rich, dark colors come to mind. Vampy plums, burnt oranges, rusty reds, and browns are traditional colors that coordinate with fall fashion and the changing colors around us. The same rules apply for nail polish. We tend to reach for darker colors which seem more season appropriate but this fall, why not add some pretty pastel polishes to your fall nail rotation? We promise you’re going to fall in love with these pastel nail polishes just like we did!

1. Jin Soon Moxie
Did you ever think you’d wear a muted pink polish in the fall? I know, this shade is very spring-y, but believe me, it works. Imagine this lavender pink on your fingertips with a big, chunky black sweater, jeans, and some cute booties. It’s a really great shade for every day or date night. It’s also a great choice for when you wear open-toed shoes!

2. Wet N Wild 1 Step Wonder Gel in Pretty Peas
I’ve seen these bottles at the drugstore but really didn’t know what they were all about. Turns out, I was missing out on an easy, 1-step gel formula that doesn’t require a top coat or lamp. Pretty Peas, the color of the label, is a cool pastel blue that’s totally unexpected but wearable in the fall and winter. How pretty would this color be with a black half-moon?

3. Dior Vernis Gel Shine in Minimal
You really can’t go wrong with nudes no matter what time of the year. Nudes give you that perfectly polished look without looking like you tried too hard. Dior’s Gel Shine in Minimal is a delicate nude that’s understated and way better than a clear polish for those times you want to look chic without too much fuss.

4. MAC STUDIO NAIL LACQUER X CHARLOTTE OLYMPIA in Good Old Days
This isn’t the typical white polish you see all over fashion bloggers’ IG photos, this cream polish has hints of red, beige, and burgundy and is formulated to be chip-free and long-lasting. It even boasts a flat brush applicator for easy application that’s goof proof. What makes this color so wearable in the fall is that it’s mixed with other colors so it’s a creamy white that works well for so many occasions.

5. Essie Now and Zen
Now and Zen is a sable gray that’s part of one of Essie’s fall 2016 collections. This gray is one of the more predictable shades for fall but it’s still a great pick. It’s a flattering neutral to go with your entire fall wardrobe and you won’t get bored of it. Wear this on casual days and hanging out with friends over cocktails.

6. Smith & Cult Nail Polish in Subnormal
I practically fainted when I first saw Smith & Cult’s nail polish. It’s one of the prettiest nail polish bottles I’d seen and the colors were amazing. This periwinkle color is a fantastic option for ladies who aren’t into gray polishes. The powdery blue hue is reminiscent of gray but just a little brighter. And although it might appear to be sheer in the bottle, it’s really opaque and glossy, two great qualities in a polish!

7. RGB Cosmetics Nail Polish in Camp
Lastly, let’s not forget to include a soft green polish in the mix! RGB’s mossy green Camp polish is a fantastic choice for fall. You get the forest green vibes but in a softer version that goes with just about everything. Wear this with your bomber jacket and jeans on weekend hangout with your girls or show them off in some strappy heels.
Available at net-a-porter.com for $18
Pastel nail polishes come in so many different shades and the great thing is that they look good with so many pieces in your fall wardrobe. Do you like wearing pastel nail polish in the fall? What’s your go-to color?
