Meet this year’s batch of fall nail colors. From a moss green to a shimmery red, these polishes will have your fall nails on point all season long. Start the season off with Zoya’s subtle Presley polish. It’s a smoky, neutral taupe that can act as a transition between the summer and fall months. As the season progresses, warm things up with Smith & Cult’s Bitter Buddhist fall nail polish. It’s a flattering mossy green that’s just unexpected enough to garner plenty of imitation manicures. Just be ready to share the shade make and model—inquiring minds will want to know. Once mid-October hits, you can take advantage of the full spectrum of autumn nail polish colors. Opt for Sally Hansen’s Good as Blue for those first crisp fall days. A few of our other favorite fall colors for nails include OPI Rebel Without a Moss, Essie Knee-High Life, and Orly Just Bitten. Whatever autumn nail polish you choose, top it off with your favorite gel top coat to ensure your nails make it through the week without a chip in sight. Truth be told, these polishes will have all eyes on your fingers, so you’ll want to be in top shape.

This classic navy isn’t so dark that it will look more black than blue once you put on a coat or two.

If you’re not averse to making a subtle statement with your look, try this metallic hue from Essie’s 90s-inspired fall collection. It’s a silvery purple that looks even better on than it does in the bottle.
