My Favorite Fall and Winter Nail Shades

In the summertime, I’m all about a bright nail color. Give me all the oranges, pinks, and bright lilacs.

But come fall, as my wardrobe darkens a bit, I tend to avoid color altogether on my nails. I’m a bit more creative with my toe nail color, in fact I just chose a deep jade color the last time I was getting a pedicure and I really like it.

But typically, I wear one of these shades all fall and winter. They are easy, sophisticated and go with any outfit.

You Don’t Know Jacques – it’s the darkest I wear, and a rich warm grey with a hint of brown

Don’t Bossa Nova Me Around – This is a creamy light shade with the softest light purple hue

Don’t Sweater It – a sleek grey shade that’s cool with purple undertones

Smokin’ Hot – a deep plum with grey mixed in to mute any vibrancy

Chinchilly – a soft and light grey that’s the easiest to wear

Touch up – the lightest of the bunch in a barely pink/purple neutral

Take me to Thread (not pictured) – a soft grey that has a touch of taupe

We have such similar taste! I love nude nails during winter. Greys and nudes make me feel so chic and put together.

Take Me To The Thread is by far my favorite shade right now. I’ve been wearing it nonstop and the Gel Couture by Essie is awesome!

Chinchilly is one of my all time favourite autumn nail shades! It’s so easy to wear and goes with basically everything. I love all of these colours, muted greys and nudes in the autumn is definitely the way to go
