Among the top color choices this year, LeChat Nails Educator Anastasia Totty predicts that unexpected, vibrant hues will be among the top polishes for this season. “Bright colors like neon yellow will be a very popular addition to any pedicure this season,” she says.
And with the start of fashion week season, it’s safe to assume that influences from the runway will be showing up for the toes as well – after all, autumn is still a great time to show off your pedicure in a temporary weather. Having an eye on fashion shows, Totty is excited for blue to make a big splash this year. “Everything from sky blue and baby blue to midnight blue to royal blue will be in.” As for other colors, greens, oranges and fall classics like burgundy and brown will still be seen on the year’s best street style stars, while gold foil and crystals will be more a wild option to experiment with this season.

Tiffany Blue
Tiffany Blue, a beautiful hybrid of light blue and turquoise, is an elegant and timeless color for fall. You can choose to wear it alone or add some embellishments to help it stand out, but either way, this is a fantastic pedicure choice for the new season.
Nude skin tone
Bana, the Los Angeles-based manicurist, recommends choosing a nude that matches your skin tone to minimize the look of overgrown nail polish. This color wash is both subtle and minimalistic, and will go with any type of transitional footwear you choose.
Dare to Go Bright
A rather unusual choice for fall, keep the days warm with a neon yellow polish. The vivid contrast will bring you joy even as the days get shorter and colder.
Burnt orange
A neat fall is striking, channel the changing leaves with burnt orange nail polish. This color will play well with your favorite sweaters and coats. Just remember to add a top layer for a durable wear.
Frost yourself
For upcoming occasions or special events, go all out with glitter nails or chrome accents. For foot care, hydration is essential when the weather starts to cool, especially if you’re drawing too much attention to your feet with an eye-catching polish. “Use an extra moisturizing body lotion on your feet, then apply cuticle oil to your toes and wrap your feet in some comfy socks to let the moisture soak in,” Bana tells TZR.
Pink Barbie
Bright and medium-toned pinks are taking over the fashion industry and then making their way to pedicures, with Barbiecore leading the pack. The pinker, the merrier.
The red ruby
With the holidays approaching, ruby red is a stunning color for both fall and winter. When doing this at home, Donna Charloff, director of service operations for Miniluxe, recommends using a glass foot file after the shower to maintain a salon-worthy pedicure. “A foot file combined with Miniluxe Nourishing Cuticle Oil Dropper will keep cuticles hydrated and fresh,” she says.
