Of all the autumnal months, your October nails can feel like the hardest to settle on. Afterall, there's a plethora of options, from timeless seasonal picks and chic dark colours to Halloween-inspired designs. When it comes to manicures, there is such a thing as too much choice.
So far, rich burgundy and chocolate brown nails have been topping the 2025 nail trends for this month, but with October ushering in shorter days, chillier weather, and of course, the spookiest of occasions, you're not limited to autumn nails. Classy Halloween nails, like black French tips and vampy dark reds, are very much on-theme, but equally, if you want to bypass all nods to the 31st, soft coffee and burnt orange shades, layered over short nail shapes, are also lovely choices. As we've said, there's a lot of choice.
