Five Nail Polish Shades That Are Perfect For Autumn!

Much as I'm not really a fan of Autumn, one thing I do love about the cooler months is the rich, deep colours - give me a good burgundy or navy over pastels, anyday! I struggle to find the time to paint my nails very often, but here are a few of the shades you're likely to find me wearing in the coming weeks...

Nails Inc 'Midnight' | You can actually pick this up for free with this month's issue of Glamour if you're in the UK! It's a beautiful deep, super-glossy navy which I'm currently wearing on my toenails. I love this one, I think it looks really chic and classy. (Swatch shows one coat)
Ciaté 'Dangerous Affair' | A gorgeous autumnal burgundy shade, this is the sort of thing I love for a subtle pop of colour in the autumn months; it's a bit different than a simple nude or black, but will go with most things and looks really polished. This was actually a magazine freebie last month, but you can find it at £9 for 13.5ml here. (Swatch shows two coats)
Nails Inc 'Lexington Street' | I know I said I don't go for pastels, and I know this is kind of a pastel... But I'm including it as a nude. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! This is a really pretty almost baby-pink creme shade which will look "done" without being overdone. Free with Glamour this month, or you can buy the NailKale version at £14 for 14ml here.

Models Own 'Absinthe' | This gorgeous emerald-green shade from Models Own's Velvet Goth collection is the perfect party shade in my book! A gorgeous shade with plenty of sparkle, this is one of my favourite nail polishes ever. I can't actually find it to buy online which I'm a bit sad about. (Swatch shows two coats)
Barry M 'Raspberry' | Now here's a classic! This is, as the name suggests, a beautiful pinky-red raspberry shade, with a smooth creamy finish - it's the brightest of the bunch but still deep enough to be decidedly autumnal. I hadn't realised how similar this is to the Ciaté shade until I looked back at these photos - 'Raspberry' is just a tiny bit brighter. And of cours, Barry M polishes are a bargain - grab this at just £2.99 for 10ml here. (Swatch shows one coat)

What are you wearing on your nails at the moment? Do you like the look of any of my picks? Do you have any go-to Autumn shades that I need to try?
