I don’t really change up my makeup routine that much. Even in the fall and winter I still keep my makeup pretty light and stick with my standard pink lipstick and winged liner. One thing I do love to switch up is my nail polish! In the summer I go for bright colours and in the fall I love wearing dar shades that remind me of the changing seasons.
Essie Skirting the Issue
This burgundy wine colour is incredibly beautiful and unlike any other shade I’ve come across. We all start reaching for deeper, darker colours during the fall and this stunning red is a must-have. You could even use this polish during Halloween. It’s deep blood red hue would be perfect for accenting a vampire costume!
Essie Don’t Sweater It
Part of Essie’s neutrals collection, this gorgeous mauve is one of my favourite Essie colours ever. It’s great anytime of the year but there is something particularly cosy and fall-like about this brown/purple shade. I mean, it has the word “sweater” in the name, so you know it’s perfect for fall. Gimme a Pumpkin Spice latte and this Basic White Girl is SET!
Dior Métropolis 702
I have a small (ok huge) love for hunter or army green. Most of my clothing is in this shade and now my nails match too! This beautiful green colour from Dior is one of my new favourites. It’s from their 2015 Fall Collection and it’s just a great shade for fall. I know my pal Nancy also loves this shade – it was her top pick from the Dior nail polish collection!
What are your favourite nail polish shades for fall? Let me know in the comments!

Metropolis was also my top pick, STUNNER! I have two other essie polishes that are my favourites for fall–Angora Cardi, and Cashmere Bathrobe (which I’m wearing today!) gorgeous picks 🙂
Megan Joy says
I just googled Cashmere Bathrobe and it’s sooo pretty. It reminds me of the one I just got from H&M. You can never go wrong with a beautiful grey!
Chantal says
All of these are beautiful, but Skirting the Issue is absolutely gorgeous!!!
Megan Joy says
Yes, it’s such a pretty red! I get compliments every time I wear it.
Agata says
Beautiful picks! I just did a post on my favorite fall nail polishes too. My all time fall fav is Pepper from Zoya but I have been also loving In The Lobby from Essie’s Fall 2015 Collection. Is a little bit similar to Skirting The issue.
Megan Joy says
I just up looked The Lobby from Essie and it’s so nice. It’s more of a wine colour and I really like it!
Jen says
I love all three of these, but Skirting the Issue especially- it really is a perfect blood red! 🙂
Megan Joy says
Totally, blood red is the perfect way to describe it. Great for the fall AND for Halloween : )
Filomena says
*gasp* Don’t Sweater It has my heart. It looks pretty similar to one of the new MAC releases actually!
Nancy says
YES to that Dior green one for being a top pick for Fallllllll!!
Megan Joy says
Haha I know we BOTH love that one : )
