Do autumn nails have to be boring? Fashionable manicure inspirations for autumn 2024
Autumn is often associated with boredom. After the crazy, creative summer and the vibrant holiday shades comes a time full of nostalgia when browns mix with grays in the fashion world.
Do autumn nails have to be boring? We say NO, and in today’s styling review, we want to show you how to quickly and easily create fashionable nails for autumn 2024. Get inspired. Reach for striking colors and patterns to shine this fall!
Autumn Nails – Colors
After a summer full of pastels and neons, autumn brings more muted shades that add elegance or deep colors inspired by nature, each with its own unique vibe.
Regardless of your preferences—whether you are a fan of subtlety and classics or you prefer creative solutions—you will find the perfect autumn manicure for yourself!
Delicate Autumn Nails
Nails in the clean girl style are still trendy, meaning minimalist soap nails, girly pink ombre, or timeless French tips.
The choice of the French tip color is yours. The classic milky white stripe and metallic tips, such as shimmering gold, are fashionable. If you want to add a bit of edge to your look, brown or black finishes will also be a hit for autumn 2024.
If you prefer a single-color manicure over French or ombre, go for a light blue hybrid polish. This will give you delicate autumn nails that will look great alongside the beiges and browns in your stylish outfits. This manicure will perfectly contrast leather trench coats or suede accessories like boots or bags.

Autumn Nails in Trendy Shades
Fall in love with a color palette inspired by nature this autumn – its mysterious, artistic vibe! We are convinced you will find your new favorite color! Here are our suggestions:
Hot Chocolate
Hot chocolate is our favorite warming drink for the autumn-winter season. Its deep, aromatic color will make its way onto the nails of fashion-loving women this autumn, securing one of the top spots on the hottest trend lists!
The chocolate brown shade pairs perfectly with trendy gold accents and warm nude tones featured in your favorite outerwear. We think such hybrid polishes look great on short, square, and long almond-shaped nails.
Fierce Red
Red is a timeless choice for women who appreciate classic style. Bold, saturated reds and deep wine shades look fantastic on their own or combined with glitter—silver or gold. You can choose a lacquer or top coat to match the jewelry you wear every day.
Red autumn nails give your looks a unique character, no matter the occasion. Worried about drawing too much attention to your hands? Start by painting only two or four nails red, leaving the rest in a nude shade. We hope you will soon fall in love with red!

Aromatic Olive
Muted shades of green, like khaki or olive, look fantastic as nail colors for autumn-winter outfits. They’re a less conventional choice than the classic French manicure or elegant burgundy, but in autumn 2024, they’re definitely in the top 10 trendy nail finishes.
Among muted greens, each of you will find a color that beautifully complements your skin tone. Whether you have a tan or fair complexion, choose a warmer or cooler version of olive green that flatters your beauty!
Delicious Honey
Honey is another strong nail trend this coming autumn. Honey-colored nails pair perfectly with thick, autumn wool sweaters, especially those in warm brown, pumpkin orange, or deep cobalt shades.
If you're a fan of shiny nail accents, complement this dark yellow color with gold transfer foil, powder, or glitter. This way, you can quickly transform a simple everyday manicure into a feminine look perfect for special occasions.
Autumn Nails – Patterns
Now, discover some of the top patterns that, combined with the above colors, will make your autumn manicure cohesive and anything but boring!
Leaf Motifs
Leaves are a timeless pattern for the autumn season. They bring life to any style, looking both delicate and bold. If you are a nail art fan, you will surely enjoy drawing artistic leaves yourself. Use a precision brush to fully control your movements and perfect every detail of your little artwork.
However, if you are a beginner in nail styling or don’t want to spend too much time creating intricate designs, find nail stickers with leaf motifs! It's a simple yet equally effective way to add a WOW factor to your decoration.
Animal Prints
Leopard print was a top summer trend, seen on flowy dresses, satin skirts, and fashionable bags. It undeniably took over the fashion and beauty industries, gracing the nails of top stars. Other animal motifs, like snakeskin or zebra stripes, are joining the trend.
You can replicate the chosen print as it appears in nature or creatively adapt it to your manicure, for example, by changing the colors or adding shiny accents. Opting for nails covered in animal prints will showcase your fashion-forward style.
Gothic Inspirations
As mentioned, black will capture many fashion hearts in the coming season. Gothic designs and motifs are a returning classic, especially with Halloween approaching and its dark atmosphere.
Of course, to achieve a gothic look, you don't need to paint all your nails black. Accents in the form of decorations or stickers are enough. Black ombre also works great! Use a sponge to create a flawless ombre effect.
Space on Nails
Are you a fan of astrology, horoscopes, and reading mythology stories on long autumn evenings? Do you eagerly await new phenomena visible in the night sky? If space inspires you, you can also show it on your nails!
Moon motifs, stars, zodiac signs, and other symbols related to astrology are returning to fashion in a big way. If you want a cute, girly effect in your manicure, add light blue or milky pink and add glitter. But if darker colors resonate with you in autumn, fall in love with navy blue and black.
