Sneak Peek For Fall: Top Nail Color Trends

Metallic Olive
When you hear “beetle shell,” what’s the first thing you think of? Why, what a perfect nail color it would be, of course. But seriously – this shade of gold, green and blue is iridescently gorgeous. And since the predominant shade is green, it’s the new neutral for fall.
Try: Peridot by Chanel, $25

Navy
This beautiful deep blue has a touch of shimmer that turns glossy on nails. This dark color is high-maintenance, so be sure to keep nails short and neat – hold the chips, please.
Try: Tuxedo by Dior Vernis, $21

Sparkly Gunmetal
The name Smokin Hot by Essie is no joke – it was going on eBay for a whopping $69.99. The regular price? $8.00. But when it sold out, it caused a riot (I’m guessing). Gray isn’t black’s ugly cousin anymore – at least in these shimmery nail colors.
Try: Seagurl by Orly Nail Lacquer, $7.50

Blackberry
The blackest of the berry shades – and the juiciest. This dark shade only needs one coat, a bonus for lazy girls (aka, me).
Try: Carry On by Essie, $8

Ladylike Pink
Every season has its out-of-nowhere trend. A feminine, girly-girl pink in the midst of all these fierce shades? You’ll be the Jackie O in the crowd of Madonnas.
