25 Trendy Brown Fall Nails 2025 That Redefine Autumn Chic

With the arrival of fall, I am always in the mood to take a break, enjoy a latte, and give my nails a seasonal refresh. The thought of wearing cozy sweaters brings to mind my favorite brown nail polish, but this year I am loving the unique and playful twists on traditional fall colors. The rich glossy espresso, metallic accents, and twirling caramel all give off the vibe of modern cozy sophistication.

Why brown? It’s the most unique take on a neutral. Unlike the vivid hues of summer and the light colors of spring, a well styled brown mani has the unique ability to be both supremely chic and make a statement. It’s like the fashion version of a favorite pair of leather ankle boots. Always timeless but every year it gets to shock and delight in a whole new way. Nail artists have already dubbed brown “the comeback queen” of fall nails 2025 and I completely support that.

In this guide, I’ll share some of the most impressive brown nail designs we have come across. Whether you prefer minimal accents, glossy statement art, or playful textures—every look feels fresh and easy to wear. Some of these manicures are ideal for a relaxing coffee date, while others have just the right amount of sparkle for a night out. Best of all, most of these designs are easy to do at home with the right tools and polishes.

Ready to refresh your manicure collection? Let’s explore some designs that prove brown isn’t boring—especially this fall. I’m sure once you check out the designs, you’ll want to sport them through the winter.

Golden Maple Charm

This design embodies the romantic aspect of autumn in its most glorious form with the fusion of beige, brown, and golden leaf embellishments. It is both sophisticated and whimsical, reminiscent of a Central Park stroll during Fall. The maple accents add a tasteful seasonal touch. It is appropriate for someone who desires a festive touch, but wants to maintain an air of sophistication.

For the maple golden charm nails, I would blend Zoya’s “Cinnamon” with Essie’s “Vanity Fairest” for the soft beige brown shade. The golden leaf accents can be done with nail stickers, or foils, which are widely available. Daily Charm, and many other brands, have metallic accents that are super easy to use at home. To maintain the nails’ shine and the foil’s glow, a strong topcoat is essential.

Application is fairly simple: alternate the base colors on each finger, and then foil leaf stickers or press-on nails are added to the accent nails. Tom Bachik, the nail artist who works with A-list celebrities, often suggests to his clients that for precision placement, nail art stickers should be applied with tweezers to avoid smudging. A tip that’s saved me countless redo’s!

I’ve got to confess, designs like this one always put a smile on my face in part because they remind me of cozy weekend days. It’s chic enough for the office, but fun enough to be seasonal. If you want a manicure that barely whispers “fall,” yet “golden leaf” is the softly spoken sweet spot.

Midnight Bronze Constellations

This manicure blends earthy magic with celestial grounding. A glossy black base and shimmering bronze, with some delicate star motifs, makes me think of a fall night sky. Constellation dot-style nails tie each design together and give each finger a bit of a tale. It’s edgy yet feminine, and for that reason, I think it’s one of the most stand out brown nail design of 2025.

For this design, I would begin using deep black gel polish, like with Essie’s “Licorice” and warm bronze metallic like OPI’s “Bronzed to Perfection.” A fine-tipped brush or a constellation stamping kit would be perfect for the star detailing. And, if extra sparkle is the goal, a clear glitter top coat can be applied for dimension without overshadowing the design.

Those constellations require a steady hand. I typically create the dots and connect a few using fine lines. Pros, like Gina Edwards, recommend working in layers and curing between steps to avoid smudging. While it is slow, the results are extraordinary.

Celestial-inspired designs are irresistible to me as they feel intimate, like wearing a part of the universe. Paired with gold rings, this look is perfect for casual, everyday wear while bold enough for a night out. The set is playful yet the glam is undeniable.

Copper Bloom Simplicity

This manicure is a great example of how simple designs can be ‘extra’ in their own way. The warm brown base with floral designs is paired with a copper accent. Floral outlines look fresh while warm brown feels understated. It’s perfect for someone who is playful and feminine, and wants nail art without feeling overdone.

To achieve the look, I would recommend a medium brown gel polish like Essie’s “Clothing Optional” and a nail art polish pen for white flowers. The copper bit can be done with foil or a copper shade like Zoya’s “Autumn.” The best part about this look is how easy it is to achieve—no need for a professional salon.

To attain this look at home, I would start with a brown base and only leave a single nail without polish. I would then sketch flower shaped petals with white striping polish or stamping plates. Floral designs, as Sarah Bland, a nail artist, says, are usually about balance. The design can be random but it must be evenly spaced.

I particularly like this design because it blends relaxed and refined. It’s the type of manicure that is appropriate for a brunch with friends and will not look out of place at a formal dinner. It has gentle charm in the way that people will see your nails and smile, which captures beauty in an accessible form.

Soft Blossom Mocha

This design of Soft Blossom Mocha has a gentle drawing of a pink flower with each petal painted skilfully. The color mixed with taupe and beige makes it feel like early blooming flowers in fall. It is extremely comforting and is a reminder that even with the change of seasons, beauty is always present.

I would suggest to use soft cream shades like “Samoan Sand” from OPI and milk-chocolate colors like “Spencer” by Zoya. The bloom can either be painted with a very fine brush or stamped with a decal; in my opinion, blush pink makes the design look warmer in contrast to the cool brown which is very appealing.

This look is quite easy to achieve. To get started, I apply alternating base colors. After that, I paint the tiny branches with a liner brush. The pink blossoms are added by simply dotting polish with a toothpick. As noted by celebrity nail tech Julie Kandalec, using shades in the same color family, such as pinks here, creates dimension with very little work.

This is the type of manicure I wear over the weekend. The soft base is easy to wear every day, and the floral detailing adds some fun. These nails are great for the fall season when you want to feel light and romantic, and not dark or moody.

Modern Cocoa Elegance

This design reminds me of deep chocolate shades meets warm coffee tones, giving an individual character to each nail. The richness of the glossy finish accentuates the colors, and the delicate leaf details are soft and feminine. One nail includes some glitter, which is a great detail for a neutral look, and makes it anything but basic. This is a great manicure for someone looking for sophisticated elegance with a playful touch.

For the base colors, I would use OPI’s “Chocolate Moose” or Essie’s “Cold Brew Crew”. A cozy fall vibe would be achieved with a sparkly, copper-toned glitter polish like Zoya’s “Autumn.” A fine nail art brush or sticker can be used to add the little leaf details, which do not overpower the design.

In my opinion, the design can be achieved quite easily at home. First, I’d apply a glossy base coat to use as a strengthener, then add the darker color on alternating nails followed by the lighter caramel color. Paint glitter on one nail, then add the metallic leaves on the rest. Celebrity nail artist Tom Bachik always emphasizes balance when mixing textures, gloss with glitter and matte with metallic—this design does just that.

This manicure is one of my favorites because I can wear it to a fall wedding, coffee date, or a cozy night with friends. It’s versatile, which is why it is one of my top picks for fall.

Retro Swirl Vibes

This design screams 70s-inspired, but updated for modern-day Instagram, right? The glossy swirled almond-shape nails are painted with bold orange, caramel, yellow, and black which gives a retro vibe. The colors are reminiscent of molten chocolate and pumpkin pie filling, which is glossy and gives a 3D effect.

If I were to recreate this, I would use OPI’s “My Italian Is A Little Rusty” and Orly’s “Melt Your Popsicle” for the orange elements. The brown shades would be dark and chunky. The design requires a striping brush which is necessary for the design clean curves, but you can use swirl stickers if you are pressed for time.

This really is about layering. The base is a warm neutral, and then you use a detail brush to paint the swirls with white and a few other colors. The key is to be fluid with the design. If you hold the brush too tightly it won’t be pretty. Celebrity manicurist, Jin Soon Choi, has said that “organic shapes in nail art are more forgiving” which is why these types of swirls are so simple to do at home.

This style feels thrilling and fun to me. It is something I would consider for a girls’ night or even during a vacation. This style is bold yet classy. It is the type of manicure that always receives and deserves compliments.

Golden Leaf Luxe

This design draws inspiration from autumn leaves and takes it to a new level. It combines deep espresso colored nails and gold and bronze leaves. It is as if each nail is brushed with autumn light and the almond shape of the nails adds to the elegance of the design. The shape is lengthening and the design feels like jewelry on the fingertips.

Essie’s “Wicked” would be my choice for the base, and then I’d use gold and copper colored metallic foils or stamping polish. Here, foil glue is a game changer as it makes transferring shiny elements easy. For extra dimension, a dotting tool can help apply glitter.

This can be achieved at home as well. I would use a dark base, apply foils on semi-dry polish for adherence, add gold leaves with stamping plates or decals. Nail experts often stress the importance of two top coats, especially with foil designs, to prevent the metallics from lifting.

I would save this for special events like a fall gala, Thanksgiving dinner, or a stylish office event. It gives that put together “wow” impression that makes you feel more dressed up even when wearing a cozy sweater and boots.

Matte Coffee Charm

This manicure removes some elements, but maintains the drama. Mocha beige matte 3D raised floral details are understated, but modern and have a contemporary flair, while the matte finish remains timeless and bold. It is like a combination of whipped latte and dark roast. It is warm, but impactful.

The stand out detail for this look is the textures. To achieve this, I would start with a base of chocolate and nude polishes and finish off with a matte top coat like “Matte About You” from Essie, which is a classic. For the floral details, gel polish builder is ideal since it maintains shape when curing.

The method is simple. Paint the base colors and cure under a lamp. After that, with thick gel polish, use a layering technique with a dotting tool or detail brush to create flowers and leaves. Cure, apply another layer, and for each additional layer, you create dimension until you achieve the desired look. It is often said that matte nails emphasize 3D detail more dramatically than a glossy finish, and this design illustrates that perfectly.

I always associate fall with matte nails because they remind me of soft suede boots or woolen scarves. I personally see this manicure as understated yet attention grabbing. For this reason I think it will be popular in 2025.

Glossy Mocha Swirls

Brown nails have gotten an update, and it’s spiral. To start, the base mocha nails are embellished with soft swoops of white and bronze glitter throughout. This design is not too busy, yet still has elements of sparkle and movement. The nails are embellished with a modern, chic square shape that is effortlessly clean yet sophisticated.

I personally recommend Zoya’s “Louise” for a deep brown and opos soft white “Coconut Over It”. For a bronzy finish, use copper glitter polish. For swoops, a thin striping brush works wonderfully.

As for color, I would go for a brown base and add the swoops in one fluid motion. For the tip it would be best to add a little glitter to enhance the design and sparkle. Betina Goldstein, a celebrity nail pro, often told her clients, “negative space and swoops make nails look longer.” This design highlights that perfectly.

To me, this manicure is versatile enough to wear to work, brunch, or even date night. While timeless, the swirls add just the right touch to not make it boring. Honestly, this might be the brown manicure I reach for the most this season.

Plaid Charm With Autumn Messages

There’s something irresistibly nostalgic about the warmth of brown and orange and plaid. This design features deep brown polish layered with glossy accents of orange and black check patterns which wonderfully showcases the words “Autumn Vibes.” It’s the kind of manicure that makes you feel cozy and crave pumpkin spice lattes wrapped in a warm blanket.

To achieve this look, I would start with Essie’s “Root Bear Float” for the base and add OPI’s “Have Your Panettone and Eat It Too” for the plaid. Those crisscross lines can be sharp with a fine striping brush or even stamping plates. For the words, a vinyl decal would make the design Pinterest perfect.

While practicing plaid designs at home, I noticed that putting the darkest lines last keeps the pattern tidy. Celebrity nail artist Betina Goldstein always points out that one should be patient with nail art, allowing each step to dry so no smudging occurs.

In my case, I love how it strikes a balance between cute, cozy, and warm without being overly childish. It’s suitable for the office but fun for the weekends. Somehow, every time I sport plaid nails, somebody compliments them and asks where I got them done. This is the impact of walking out with seasonal details.

Matte Browns with Leaf Motifs

Matte nails are timeless, especially with rich hot cocoa brown colors. This design features a warm brown base with layered leaf details and a touch of elegance with soft metallic dots that, while understated, capture some light and sparkle during the fall. Overall, it feels nature-inspired while sophisticated.

The secret in the leaves’ elegance is the matte top coat: try Butter London’s “Matte Finish Shine Free” for that soft, warm and velvety finish. For the design, you can use copper and bronze metallic gel paints for a gorgeous finish on the minute leaf details. If drawing leaf patterns freehand is daunting, nail foils or stamping kits can achieve those crisp designs easily.

During one of my fall trips to Vermont, I tried a look that transformed my entire fall wardrobe. Topped off with a robust brown, the matte finish combined with golden sparkles that catch the light adds a modern touch, especially when clutching a warm mug. Not to forget, pairing it with a chunky knit is simply perfection.

Elegant Coffee-Inspired Designs

The symmetrical patterns on nails painted in beige and brown shades with glossy chocolate outlines and golden accents evoke quiet luxury. The glossy polish finish paired with rich brown and gold accents reminds me of a stylish café. Although it’s simple in nature, it still manages to be a statement.

To achieve this, I would apply “Samoan Sand” as a base and layer dark espresso brown for the patterns. For the accent pieces, I like to use a striping brush which makes applying gold foil really easy. The charm of this design is that it is chic and understated.

This design is for a person who loves minimal, elegant details and timeless pieces, like a caramel trench coat with chic leather pieces.

Glossy Espresso with Whimsical Daisy Accents

Add one flower, and a classic manicure transforms into something memorable. Shimmering deep espresso covers most fingers, with a crisp white daisy and a gold center as the star accent. It is both polished and playful, a wink at the season’s florals while anchored in fall.

Zoya’s “Kalista” would work perfectly as a deep brown shimmer base. The daisy petals, in my opinion, are possible using a dotting tool. For added wow, giving the center a tiny rhinestone or a drop of gold gel polish would add a splash of shimmer.

Tom Bachik, a celebrity manicurist, once said that a single accent nail can elevate a whole manicure, making it feel unique. This design is a perfect example—you can add or remove details as you please. It embodies that daisy-loving, early fall cosiness that many of us crave.

Whimsical Floral Embellishments

This design feels like love letter to autumn gardens and is certainly one of my favorites. The neutral nails are adorned with raised flowers, and green stems with copper accents. The muted base of the manicure combined with the flowers is incredibly chic. The 3D designs balance depth and subtlety to perfection.

To achieve this, I like using Essie’s “Topless & Barefoot” as a base. Copper 3D nail flower charms and copper nail studs work wonderfully to add the flowers. Painting the leafy greens with a detailing brush adds to the precision. The balance of simplicity and adornment is the key: simplicity in strategic placement of the flowers.

Last Thanksgiving I wore a similar embellished design and to my surprise, it got more attention than my outfit. I love nails adorned with texture. The charm of these nails is easy to lose yourself in during the day. The jewels of the manicure world always feel dainty, but are far more enchanting.

Glossy Espresso Leaves

This espresso manicure is sleek, refined, and showcases seasonal minimalism. One nail highlights a metallic silver leaf while another has a branch effect embossed and filled with polish texture. It is eye-catching yet subtle, perfect for someone who loves intricate details.

To recreate, I would start with a rich gel base like OPI’s “How Great is Your Dane?” For the metallic leaf, I’m a fan of chrome powders or silver foils, especially when sealed in with a Top Coat. The textured leaf is also easy to recreate. Just like the chrome foils, layered gel polish on the surface with a detail brush and building dry-retaining lines works like a charm.

In my experience, keeping a rich espresso for the base on all nails, then accenting with leaves works best. While I would also follow the nail tech in curing textures independently, I would add an embossed texture at a low power setting. It seems like a longer method, but the results are stunning.

This design is perfect for the cozy sweater weather – my hands feel warm yet refined. It does not grab attention, but rather exudes a polished energy that complements fall knits wonderfully. I find myself leaning towards this kind of nail art when I want my hands to look delicate.

Autumn Copper Glow

This is a set that reminds me of golden hour and leaves falling. It is warm and strong with coppery metallic and white base with a burnt-orange leaf accent. It is striking and bold yet balanced with soft botanical art. The look is very wearable and easy.

For this, I’d grab a copper gel polish—Zoya’s “Autumn” is a personal favorite—and pair it with a creamy off-white like Essie’s “Marshmallow.” The leaf motif could be hand-painted using a fine detail brush and a darker copper or terracotta polish. Foil leaf decals are also an easy option if freehand painting feels intimidating.

While doing designs like this, I start by polishing the copper nails first as metallics can take extra curing time. Last is the accent nail. Celebrity nail pros like Deborah Lippmann often suggest layering metallics over in a neutral color for extra dimension—it is a tip I would use here for the glow I want.

For me, this is the statement mani of the season. It is perfect for Thanksgiving gatherings or any warm fall-ish get-together. This design feels warm, cozy, and inviting and is quite easy to wear with just the right amount of sparkle for day or night.

Mocha and Black Sleek Contrast

Modern and architectural is the direction this design takes. Within sleek bounds, bold black French tips frame a smooth mocha base and are separated by metallic and white stripes, creating a chic graphic look. It is great for anyone who does not wear soft florals or swirls and prefers structural designs.

For this one, I would start with a matte mocha like Essie’s “Clothing Optional” and layer a jet black gel for the tips. Adding the crisp white and gold metallic lines would be best done with a striping tape or liner brush. Beautiful golden accents can be found in OPI’s “Glitzerland” which works beautifully for that.

The secret to achieving this style is to maintain symmetry. For French tips, I start with a curved tip outline. I apply the tips first and then paint the stripes after curing. Nail artist Betina Goldstein often stresses the need for patience while using striping tape because if you pull it off too early, the crisp lines will be destroyed. I would advise using the same logic for this style.

What stands out to me the most is the versatility of this set. It easily goes with a blazer just as it does with jeans, which I believe is one of the reasons why graphic fall nails like this one are so timeless. It is powerful in its simplicity.

Botanical Bronze Mix

This manicure combines various brown colors with gold accents and playful leaf motifs. Some nails are dark with bronze foil or leaf patterns while others are glossy. It tells a story that is cohesive and organized, yet eclectic like a curated fall mood board.

For the base, I would use brown shades like “Louise” by Zoya and “Frock ‘n Roll” by Essie, adding a bronze metallic for the accent nails. These botanical designs can be created easily with leaf stencils or stamping plates. While the designs can be painted on with a steady hand, they can also be stenciled or stamped.

In any kind of nail art, alternating colors and finishes is very important, too. To keep balance, I go finger by finger in order to put accents and avoid having all of them concentrated on one side of the hand. To avoid blurring together, seasoned nail technicians recommend to individually top coat each nail when mixing textures.

This is one of those looks that calls to me because of how adventurous yet wearable it is. The brown manicure is not your everyday type brown. It looks curated and artsy in a way that feels seasonal, making one want to show it off while holding a spiced latte.

Caramel Floral Glam

This is a warm floral set that combines warm colors and floral design with warm caramel tones. The honey brown nail polish with a glossy shine makes the manicure look polished and warm, while floral art on cream colored accent nails brings out femininity. With the right amount of glossy sparkle, the rhinestones add festivity without being over the top.

For this design, a caramel colored polish like OPI’s “Fall-ing for Milan” works well together with a creamy nude base. With a detail brush or floral stamping plate, the flowers can easily be done and the rhinestones can be applied with nail glue and topcoat for a secure finish.

To begin, I paint all the nails caramel and then add the floral accents on top. I add the rhinestones while the top coat is still a little wet, and afterwards, it is cured to fix them in place. Julie Kandalec and other nail specialists often say to limit embellishments so the manicure remains elegant and refined, which is definitely the case here.

I think this one is perfect for special occasions. It would be ideal for a fall wedding or a holiday dinner and though it is glamorous, it also feels soft and romantic. The warm colors, floral designs, and just the right amount of sparkle make it feel elegant and flawless.

Floral Touch with a Sparkle

This design definitely feels soft and feminine with its combination of deep, chocolate brown nails and white florals. One nail is fully covered in glitter, which adds sparkle and twinkling light and is especially festive for fall. I would describe it as a cozy yet chic manicure that is delicate, yet bold.

I suggest using “You Don’t Know Jacques” by OPI for the brown base, with floral accents, and “Penny Talk” by Essie for the glitter accent. For the flowers, a fine detail brush, or a stamping plate would work well. The brown base is deep, and the white accent is bold, making the design eye-catching and striking.

Recreating this look is easiest if you start with the glitter nail, applying and sealing layers of top coat until smooth. Afterwards, paint the chocolate nails, and when they’re fully dry, carefully add floral details with white stamping polish or a fine nail art pen. It’s a design that embraces a certain imperfection—the charm is the attempt that shines through.

This one makes me think of the comfort of curling up with a cozy blanket and a candle softly flickering nearby. It’s understated and romantic, and honestly, I could wear this look all season long.

Ombre Mocha Fade

This style is all about seamless blending. The nails start with a clear base that transitions into warm caramel and deep mocha shades, resulting in a smooth and sophisticated ombre. The coffin shape gives the nails added length, and alongside the chic gradient, enhances the design even further.

For this set, I recommend using an ombre gel polish set like the Modelones Ombre Brown Kit. It includes a base and an extensive set of warm shades. The ombre can be achieved with a sponge or airbrush and topped with a glossy top coat for that glass finish.

While doing this at home, I would start with the lightest shade at the cuticle and then add darker shades towards the tip, blending with a sponge until the gradient blended into itself. “Clean blending is everything for ombre nails,” as Nail Artist Chaun Legend reminds his clients, and I too, appreciate this. It is what adds polish to this style.

What caught my attention with this look is the effortless versatility. It is bold enough for a night out, yet subtle enough for the office. It is one of those manicures one never tires of looking at.

Chocolate Glam with Rhinestones

Here is a design with a little more drama. Brown glossy nails with glittery tips and little rhinestones. The almond shape adds elegance, but the shimmer and sparkle keeps it fun. Earthy with a hint of glam, and utterly stunning.

For the solid brown nails, I would choose “Espresso Your Inner Self” by OPI and for the glitter polish tip, “Summit of Style” by Essie. The small rhinestones can be placed with the help of a tweezer and blend with the rest of the design without being too much.

To apply the tips and glitter gradients, start with the solid brown base first. Work from the tips upwards and add glitter for the gradient effect. To complete the manicure, the polish should be tacky when you add the rhinestones and a strong top coat should be used to preserve the polish. It is important that the top coat is gel, as professionals state that it keeps the rhinestones from falling off.

For any fall celebration, a date night, or the holiday season, this look is perfect. This manicure is special for when you want to feel a little extra special, and adds a touch of sparkle when needed.

Minimalist Plaid Lines

This stunning manicure is accented with geometric and chic elements. White lines are added with a striping brush and to complete the look, nail art tape is used to form a chic plaid design on the dark matte chocolate brown base. While it is minimal, it is still bold and timeless.

A matte top coat is key here—something like OPI’s “Matte Top Coat” will do the trick. For the white lines, I’d use a striping brush or even thin nail art tape with white stamping polish. The sharp contrast keeps everything crisp and stylish.

For this style, add a matte brown base coat and wait until it dries. Then, apply nail tape to create clean cuts before adding the white lines and finish with a layer of matte top coat. for the final touch. To keep edges from becoming blunt, peel off the tape quickly, and apply a thin layer of matte top coat for a final touch.

This look is both chic and effortless, akin to pairing a structured blazer with a soft turtleneck. It has a very put together vibe ,while remaining comfortable and easy to wear.

Swirling Mocha Elegance

This manicure incorporates rich mocha and chocolate brown tones while finished with bronze swirls that look like liquid art. The glossy mocha brown with gold accents not only highlights the nail’s surface but also catches the light beautifully. The swirls gave the nails a sense of movement, as if they’re somewhere gliding through the air. It completely transforms your look and gives your hands a polished appearance, even if you’re just sipping coffee.

For this design, I would use a gel polish in a very dark brown, such as “Espresso Your Inner Self” by OPI, as a base. Warm copper or rose gold metallic gel swirls adds a nice touch as well. Brands like Gelish or Essie’s Gel Couture have some perfectly shimmery shades. To complete this look, a fine liner brush is a must because those swirls need precision.

For DIY versions, I begin with a base layer on every nail and let it cure completely. After that, I add the swirls. To make it easier, nail professionals suggest sketching the design with a lighter polish and then adding metallics over it. This is a technique I learned from watching Betina Goldstein, a celebrity nail artist. As she says, “patience and thin strokes” are essential, and I couldn’t agree more.

Like I mentioned, I love how this design is artful and still wearable. The base brown is grounding, however the metallic touches make it almost look like jewelry. Personally, I would wear this design to a fall wedding or on vacation. It is timeless and very versatile, but still on point for fall nails in 2025.

Nails that Look Like Argyle Sweaters

This design is a delightful blend of autumn style and nail art. It evokes a warm feeling with brown hues and beige diamonds, identical to a stylish argyle sweater. A glossy finish makes it look sleek, which is a modern twist that balances the cozy vibe.

For this look, I would use Essie’s “Mink Muffs” and OPI’s “Samoan Sand” for the beige contrast. A detail brush with a diamond pattern or a stamp makes achieving the argyle look simple, so you don’t have to worry about intricate detailing.

It is best to follow a step-by-step process in layers. Start with a solid base, and then paint in the diamond shapes one at a time, overlapping them to achieve the argyle crisscross effect. Finish with a glossy top coat to create the effect of the pattern being seamless.

This is one of my favorites because it reminds me of fall fashion that you can wear on your nails. It is cozy, a bit retro, and absolutely Pinterest worthy. I would wear it with a knit sweater and a pumpkin spice latte—it just oozes autumn chic.

Let’s be honest, brown nails have undeniably secured their place as a must have for the fall in 2025. With their ability to be styled in so many different ways, they are undeniably creative, chic and stylish. Whether you prefer glossy metallics, soft florals, or bold graphic lines, this trend has a version that suits your mood and lifestyle. I love the fact that these manicures capture the warmth and elegance of the season, but still have room for fun.

This is the time to be adventurous with the different shades and textures of brown for the fall if you’re contemplating changing up your nails. These designs are perfect for the entire season, from casual coffee dates to evening events.

I am curious about something completely different. Would you rather prefer a design that is calm and warm , or does a loud statement piece suit your personality better? Some of them are more statement and other more subtle. Tell me which one really captures your eye, because I really want to know what your top picks are.
