We’re at that time of the year when we’re bidding farewell to our summer manicures and ushering in a richer autumn nail colour palette. In my opinion, this is the prime time of the year for nail colour trends. I’m welcoming those timeless nail colour shades like deep burgundy, dark brown and olive green with open arms when I visit the nail salon at this time of the year. However, on my daily Instagram scroll I noticed another autumn nail colour trend that’s just starting to take off. Enter burnt orange nails.
Far from the vibrant sunset oranges we see over summer, burnt orange is the subdued autumnal sister that has entered the chat. It’s an understated take on the twee pumpkin shades we see at this time of the year, with spicier undertones that make the all the more luxe. Erring on the side of brown or red, burnt orange encompasses the colour of autumn leaves and is ideal if you find brown nails too dark and want something a little brighter at this time of the year.
