“Matte is also having a large moment with these nail art designs,” Weber shares, so make sure to add a topcoat if that’s your vibe. “Thanksgiving is usually a time for clean classic nails with gorgeous fall hues but no art,” he adds.
4. Brick reds
Similarly, brick reds and true reds are also having a major moment, Weber shares. Inspired by apple picking, CND Cherry Apple, which has deep blue-red undertones, is an option he favors. Brick tones are great “for more traditional looks,” Weber says, picking CND Books & Beaujolais or CND Maple Leaves as choices toeing the line between red and orange.
5. Milky nudes
Milk nails have been having a major moment, and they don’t seem to be going away any time soon. Webeber shares that shades like CND Negligee and OPI Hearts and Tarts will be massive this fall for those looking for a more minimalist, neutral pedicure in the pastel realm. Think pink so pale that it is almost white.
A take on a French tip mixing the two shades is also a good idea. “For something minimal but stylish, a micro French using OPI Nail Lacquer in Put It In Neutral as the base with a thin OPI Nail Lacquer in Alpine Snow tip adds a subtle, elevated touch for the season,” Duran says.
6. 50 shades of browns
Of course, it wouldn’t be fall without brown. Mocha brown, espresso brown, chocolate brown… they are all reigning when it comes to fall nail trends, so draw inspo from your favorite seasonal beverage for your fall pedicure ideas.
“For fall pedicures, OPI has the perfect lineup to match the cozy vibe of the season. OPI Nail Lacquer in Espresso Your Inner Self brings those rich latte vibes,” Duran says. Weber, on the other hand, suggests CND Arrowhead or Fedora for richer options if you like a darker pedi color.
7. Mauves
A good in-between, bridging the gap between pinky pastels and coffee browns, is mauve. Weber says shades like CND Mulberry Tart or LeChat Grace are in. You can get a simple gel nail polish or opt for more intricate nail designs, adding a vampy twist with burgundy accents.
8. Forest greens
Last but not least in the list fall pedicure colors, we have forest greens for those already thinking ahead to the holidays. “OPI Nail Lacquer in Stay Off the Lawn!! delivers the ultimate forest green for a bold yet grounded look,” Duran says. You can go more forest or more pine, depending on how you like your toenails to look, but they’ll bring in a festive touch.
