Ok, you’ve had your fun with your bright pinks, punchy purples and other daring hues during the summer months, but fall is on its way, and so are some more “polished” nail lacquers. To ease the transition from hot pink to cool red, we’ve rounded up our favorite nail colors for fall.

Fall’s the time to welcome brown hues with “I’m Fondue of You” from the OPI Collection de France. This dark chocolate hue looks good enough to eat and refined enough to complement any outfit.

As we’ve learned in past seasons, when it comes to dark polish, be sure to keep a bottle of your chosen hue handy, as a single chip can mean the difference between elegantly polished and unfortunately unkempt.

But, if you can’t resist those dark and darling shades, take another color hint from OPI’s French collection with their crimson “Bastille My Heart.” Sure to complement fall’s dark duds, this twist on the classic red makes a bold and lasting color statement.

Some of us just can’t walk away from our signature color, pink. Let essie’s brand new “Swept off my Feet” steal your favor and adorn your nails this fall. This deep, sophisticated pink is, thankfully, less sorority and more sultry than our beloved summer pink shades, and is the perfect pink for fall.

If you’re looking to step outside the box with your fall color, we think essie’s “No Boundaries” will easily do the trick. This bold fuchsia is sure to turn some heads, but its dark base is still appropriate for fall.
