12 Chic And Spooky Fall Nail Ideas To Save To Your Pinterest Board Right Now

fall nail ideas

My French manicure has overstayed it's welcome, but it's only because I've been so busy saving fall nail ideas to my Pinterest board for next season. I've officially checked out of summer because there's almost always a daily heat wave or run-in with a pesky mosquito that thinks it's discovered liquid courage within my legs' veins. I'm over it, and more than ready for fall!

Do you need some new autumnal options too? Good, then get in because we're going shopping! Get ready to take as many screenshots as your phone can handle because the fall nail ideas are going to make sure you're ready for cozy weather and spooky season.

Stylish Fall Nail Ideas

KISS

Kiss Voguish Fantasy Press-On Nails (Unbroken Love)

Whether you've got fashion week or pumpkin spice season on your mind, these nails have fall written all over them. Okay, they technically have 'love' and cute French chrome accents on them, but you get what I mean.

They're subtle enough to match fall's cozy vibes without fading into obscurity and it's the type of thing I love. I'd personally wear this nail idea as soon as fall starts to show my gratitude for my favorite season.

They serve as the perfect transition between two seasons so you could actually get them a few days before summer ends!

Black And White Abstract Nails

Don't count abstract nails out because there's still a way to make them work for fall. Opt for a black and white color palette to serve as your base while letting the hand drawn designs do most of the talking.

This is still one of my favorite sets to date because it went with everything outfit I chose to wear. Athleisure? No problem. Cowgirl status? You bet!

Bellacures

French Metallic Nails

Love the first couple of fall nail ideas, but want to focus on a chrome French manicure? You've come to the right place!

Similar to the first idea, these nails can be transitional because they're ambiguous and aren't beholden to any rules. You can request these at your nail next appointment or you can wait to debut them after fall's been around for a month.

They'll go with plenty of the fall fashion ideas you're saving to your Pinterest board.

Target

Chillhouse Chill Tips Nail Art Press On Fake Nails (Gone Glamping)

I know you plan to go glamping this fall, so let your nails match nature with a pop of forest green! It's arguable whether you should wear press-on nails in the great outdoors, but no one said you had to do any of the heavy lifting.

If you plan to keep existing in your soft girl era, these press-on nails from Chillhouse are a cute fall nail idea to take on your overnight trip in the forest.

Paintlab

PAINTLAB Tortie Press-on Nails

If you don't buy these press-on nails, I surely will! I love anything tortoise shell — I'll run up the hill towards it every time. It's this close to replacing my love for leopard print, but that's TBD. The point is, these nails are another great fall staple to have.

The only fall rule I have is that varying shades of brown and black together create the best fall neutral. Once you pair it with a rounded almond nail shape, you have one of the best fall nail ideas out there.

I could tell you to stop scrolling because you don't need anymore options, but there's still so much more to explore!

Cozy Fall Nail Ideas

Target

Olive & June Press-on Oval Medium Fake Nails

If you're taking a break from nail art, focus on getting basic nail colors! You can still wear press-on nails this fall, but you'll look like a chic Editor from Runway magazine with these oxblood nails.

You'll be able to secure them with non-toxic and on-damaging glue which is a relief. No one said anything about cute fall styles and damaged nails!

Londontown

Londontown Posh Forever Metallic Nail Polish

Give yourself a gorgeous gel manicure at home with Londontown's metallic nail polish! Thanks to the amazing formula of proprietary kur care, you'll receive a nice dose of strength, moisture, and cute fall nails with each brush stroke.

Also, it's obvious that this nail polish is a must-have for anyone who's been counting waiting to order their drink from the Starbucks fall menu. As you can see, it looks gorgeous against a cream rib knit sweater! You can also pair it with neutral matching sets while you're at it.

Ella + Mila

Ella + Mila Bags Are Packed Blue Nail Polish

Jewel tones are so fall, so go for a true blue nail polish like this one by Ella + Mila. It doesn't contain any animal-derived ingredients which is great for anyone who prefers vegan beauty products. It also dries really quick and claims to be chip-resistant. That's a great feature if you use your hands a lot!

Bellacures

Peek-a-boo Black Nail Polish

Classic black nails will always be in. You can call these nails moody, but it doesn't change the fact they're going to be the most versatile idea you wear this fall.

Since there's no additional rhinestones or nail designs associated with this idea, you can actually recreate this at home. It can be your way of saving money so you don't have to choose between toilet paper and wine à la Shonda Rhimes.

Spooky Fall Nail Ideas

Glamnetic

Glamnetic Sandworm Press-On Nails

"Look! You've been to Saturn! I've been to Saturn! Whoa, sandworms, you hate ’em, right" is one of my favorite unhinged quotes from Beetlejuice that match these press-on nails perfectly.

Since we're finally getting a long-awaited sequel to the cult classic, it feels fitting that I include these beauties in the fall nail ideas roundup. They mix a bit of the sandworms' design with the classic Beetlejuice suit I love to see Michael Keaton wear so I think this means you just discovered your Halloween costume. 👀

Walmart

Salon Perfect Halloween Press-on Nails (Orange Pumpkin)

The first movie I think about when I see these nails is Scream. That's one of my favorite teen slasher films that I still watch to this day so I love how these designs seem to pay homage to Ghostface.

The pumpkins and orange crochet lines are an added touch that takes the edge off the 'killer' aspect which may make some people feel more comfortable looking at your nails. Then again, it doesn't really matter if other people don't get them.

Bellacures

Spooky Spider Nails

Undoubtedly someone doesn't have a fear of spiders and I applaud you for having the courage I don't. So, if you're trying to think of your next spooky Halloween costume, let these nails be your guiding light.

They're deliciously witchy and seem like you can conjure pumpkins to break out in a jubilated song.

We've covered a lot of cute nail ideas, but we've finally narrowed down the 'outdated' trends artists and nail techs are seeing less of. It's not that 3D art isn't cute anymore, but Maria Jones, a nail artist on the platform CoverClap, says she's got a feeling "neutral and minimalist nail styles will always have a place in the world of beauty." And if I'm being honest, it seems that's what people are more interested in when it comes to their nails right now.

Jones adds, "Simple nude tones, soft pinks, and sheer polishes are staples because they're universally flattering and appropriate for any occasion." For a pop of color, "classic red nails" are another "timeless trend" that makes them "a go-to choice for many, regardless of the season or year."

Knowing this, we asked Jones — and consulted this GlossGenius trend report — which trends are on the outs as well as what you can wear instead!

Scroll to learn about which outdated nail trends it's time to give up for 2025!

Etsy

1. Duck Nails

Considered one of the more gaudier nail trends on our list, duck nails are officially OUT. GlossGenius reports that this style and "chunky highlights are falling out of favor according to professionals." The reason for this is that they're seeing more "clients lean towards sleek, minimalist styles."

Cora Pursley

2. 3D Embellishments

Another trend GlossGenius considers 'outdated' is excessive nail art. Jones agrees, saying, "I think we'll see less of the really textured nail arts-like excessive 3D embellishments that have been really dominating the scenes in recent years." As cute as they are, more people are looking towards wearing nails.

Etsy

3. Ultra-Long Nails

Jones says, "Another thing which is leaving is ultra-long and stiletto-shaped nails." However, this doesn't give you the license to ask about women's bathroom habits if you spot them wearing this style (major side eye to Dax Shepard's interview with Cynthia Erivo).

Nail Reformation

4. French Tip Design

This nail trend is controversial because it's technically 'outdated'. But, it's been revamped so many times that it's not fair to tell you not to wear it anymore. According to GlossGenius, they're "seeing a major comeback, with demand increasing by 87% over the past year." Based on their findings, "updated takes like colored or ombré tips are especially popular."

Pop Polished

4. Jelly Nails

Unfortunately, we haven't seen as many people wearing the once popular 'jelly nails' that were everywhere. I personally think the concept was cute for a while, but phased out after summer. For all we know, they could make a brief comeback but not long enough to make a year-long impact.

Nail Trends To Try In 2025

1. 'Structured Gel Overlay'

GlossUp has seen a 214% increase in clients asking for services like Gel-X. Unlike regular nail polish, this process involves a UV lamp that 'cures' the color you've selected. It's also meant to last longer than a regular manicure.

Mariam Kajaia

2. Dip Powder

Remember when people learned how to do their nails during the early days of the pandemic? Well, the nail trend of using dip powder is here to stay! Instead of being applied to false nails, acrylic powder is placed over your natural nails. This is yet another way to make your manicure last longer instead of solely relying on nail polish.

Jasmine Williams

3. Almond Nails

Instead of seeing super long stiletto nails, Jones says these "dramatic lengths are being replaced with more functional shapes like almond or short square nails." She calls them "stylish yet manageable" which I personally agree with as a busy mom.

If you need more outdated hot takes, here are 8 makeup trends to steer clear of this year.

1. Strawberry Shortcake & Bows

If you're ditching traditional V-Day plans in favor of something that centers your relationship with your friends, you need something that's not obviously associated with romantic love. Why strawberries? Besides being one of the sweetest fruits you can put in any dessert, they have a cutesy vibe that looks amazing on nails.

P.S. Add a pink bow decal to one of your nails for a bit of contrast!

Zoë Kravitz may have moved on already after her split from Channing Tatum, but she's not the only one! According to rumors, Channing has his own new love interest — and she's apparently a model. While we want him to be happy, we're heartbroken to see one of our fave heartthrobs off the market yet again! So here's what we know about Channing, how we got here, and his alleged new gorgeous girlfriend.

Scroll to find out everything you need to know about Channing Tatum's alleged new girlfriend!

I believe that practically everyone has had their own personal "Channing Tatum awakening" at one point or another. For me, that came in 2006 when he starred as Tyler Gage, alongside Jenna Dewan as Nora Clark, in Step Up. What's hotter than a troubled, handsome, and surprisingly talented hip-hop dancer falling in love with a ballerina? I rest my case.

That's why it was thrilling to find out the pair began dating in real life and tied the knot on July 11, 2009. But then, after having a daughter together, Channing and Jenna announced they were getting separated in 2018, and plenty of fans were devastated.

Their divorce was reportedly only finalized in September 2024. Regardless, that hasn't stopped 44-year-old Channing from getting back out on the market.

First, on October 30, 2023, the news broke that he'd gotten engaged to Zoë Kravitz, an American actress and filmmaker most well-known for her portrayal of Catwoman in The Batman and directing Blink Twice, which also starred Channing as Slater King.

www.instagram.com

Yet, one year later, in October 2024, Channing and Zoë called off their engagement and split up after spending three years together. Since then, the actor has seemingly begun seeing a younger model, 25-year-old Inka Williams.

Channing and Inka attended a pre-Oscars party hosted by the Creative Artists Agency (CAA) at The Living Room in Los Angeles on February 28. They've also been seen together around town. One source confirmed the pair were "seeing" each other when speaking to People after reportedly meeting through mutual friends.

www.instagram.com

"She's great. She has her own life. She's young but seems older," the source said of Inka.

"Channing's doing well. [Inka] makes him happy. He's reuniting with Zoë later this spring for another movie project. It shouldn't be too awkward; they ended things on okay terms."

Inka, who was born in Melbourne, Australia, and raised in Bali, Indonesia, is signed to IMG, a top global modeling agency. She previously said that her childhood in Bali shaped her into a "very compassionate person," and she later moved to London to grow her career.

www.instagram.com

In addition to modeling, the 25-year-old also launched her own fashion brand, known as She Is I, in 2019. Her mother often made her clothing when she was a young girl, and she viewed the business venture as a way to continue her mom's "legacy in design and bring back to life her amazing relations from the '90s."

"I always knew one day I would try my best to create those timeless pieces from her wardrobe! I still wear the pieces she made and wore through the '80s, '90s, and 2000s," Inka wrote on her brand's website.

Channing and Inka both have yet to comment on public speculation about their supposed relationship. Nonetheless, she did post a story from the beach on her Instagram @inkawilliams, with the words "I love you" written on top of the sand.
