Fall Nail Ideas that are Perfect for Thanksgiving

With Thanksgiving and the holidays just around the corner, I’ve been in complete prepping mode. We get to see our family after a long time, so we’re extra excited. Since we’re going to be with company, I figured it would be a good time to get my nails done in a fun and festive way. After perusing through Pinterest for a LONG time, I found some adorable fall nail ideas that are perfect for Thanksgiving.

The goal was to avoid Christmas-y looking nails, cuz Thanksgiving is a totally different holiday, am I right? These are all great for the entire fall season, but especially special for Turkey day! AND I promise they aren’t turkeys or pumpkins. We wanted to go for a chic, but festive vibe.

Neutral Plaid
These plaid accent nails is a great take on a popular fall fashion trend. You can use a neutral base and add accent colors as the pattern to avoid a tacky look.

Gold Tips
Take gold foil or gold polish on a neutral nail and brighten up the tips for a way cooler french mani. These would be simple to try at home and will still make a statement.

Trendy Tortoise
You’ll want to consult a professional when trying these but it’ll be worth it. Tortoise print is so chic and minimal and the colors are perfect for fall. Or you can try this stick on option.

Nude Ombre
Take your favorite fall color and get polishes in a few similar shades and create your own at home ombre look! Since there isn’t any pattern, this is the easiest to try at home. Try this set for a minimal ombre.

Glitter Nails
Another easy fall nail idea that you can try at home. Try out a glitter accent nail or glitter french tips in a fall tone.

Fun Leaves
This one is the most icon heavy, but leaves are stunning in the fall and you want to focus on that. Using a brush, try painting on a simple leaf on your accent nail for an instantly fall friendly nail look.
