7 Nail Colors That Are Thanksgiving Classics
When you think of fall, one of the first things that probably always comes to mind is sweater weather. Starbucks' popular PSL might be another, the sound (and smell) of crunchy leaves, and, of course, Thanksgiving. Turkey day is like the unofficial kickoff to the holiday season. Gifts are given, delicious food is devoured, and family time is of the utmost importance.
Because this time of year also tends to creep up fast, we decided to curate a handful of Thanksgiving-ready nail colors that'll come in handy when you're planning your outfit for the occasion (because yes, we've all done that). These shades are sure to take your feast-friendly getup to a new level of cool. From autumnal orange to matte brown, ahead are seven hues that are absolute Thanksgiving classics.
Orange
Orange you happy we included this classic hue? We are, too. The tangy shade is one of this season's biggest color trends. Sporting it in polish form is a super-easy way to get in on the vibe.
Brown
Don't shy away from this autumnal hue. It'll pair well with all your Thanksgiving looks.
Burgundy
Burgundy is another must-try color for the holiday season. Wear it now and keep it on through December.
Yellow
Add the perfect pop of color to all your outfits this season with a swipe of yellow polish.
Green
Green is a classic fall nail color, and as such, it's an essential Thanksgiving hue, too.
Gray
Gray is the new nude. It's the perfect color option for when you want something subtle.
Nude
When in doubt, you can always reach for tried-and-true nude nail polish. It pairs well with everything and just always looks, well, polished.
