I’ve reached the point in August where I’m simultaneously trying to squeeze every last drop out of summer and getting low-key embarrassingly excited about fall. I still want bright colors and anything that looks good next to a tan, but I’m also suddenly eyeing black polish and every shade that could reasonably be described as pumpkin spice. My favorite nail looks this week reflect that exact state of mind.
On one end of the spectrum, there are butterfly motifs, tiny stars, and a colorful striped French that still feel right at home in August. Then there’s the other camp: glossy black, zebra print, molten orange chrome that practically screams pumpkin spice, and deeper shades creeping onto toes before we're quite ready to commit to them on our fingers. Somewhere in the middle, mixed-metal chrome and a polka dot deep red French make a very convincing argument for ignoring seasons altogether.
