Drugstore vs. Designer: Fall Nail Polish Colors

Yes my beauty addict friends, fall is nearly here, which means swapping out your bright-summer-mani for more moody colors like oxblood, jewel tones, and metallics. If you are looking for the best nail polish colors for fall, I got you covered with designer and drugstore nail polish options to fit your style and pocket book.

While I love the quality, longevity, and packaging of a designer nail polish (hello Christian Loubouitin), not everyone can go blow $25.00 to $50.00 on just one nail polish. So, here is my list of designer nail polish colors for fall with color matches to a drugstore nail polish option. Whether you a designer polish-a-holic, or a drugstore polish addict, there is fall nail polish color for everyone.

Like everything name brand and luxury, you are going to pay for it, and that doesn’t exclude luxury nail polishes. These nail polishes range from $20.00 to $50.00 each (and sometimes more), from luxury name brands like Dior, Chanel, and Dolce and Gabbana. Check out my luxury nail polish picks for fall.

1.Givenchy/Beige Mousseline 02 – creamy nude

2. Guerlain/ Vega

3. Dolce & Gabbana/Deep Green

4. Marc Jacobs/ Dirty Bronze Metallic Shimmer

5. Dior/ Metal Montaigne

6. NARS/Dark Room

7. Givenchy/ Bronze Insense

If you don’t want to pay designer prices, but still want to be on trend, there are tons of fall drugstore nail polish options for you at a fraction of the price. While I can’t say that the quality of a $1.99 nail polish is the same as a $25.00 nail polish, you can still get a similar color for your fall manicure.
