Classic & Clean

You can never go wrong with a clean, classic French mani. This month, skip the white and go for a dark purple or black instead.

Touch Of Sparkle

No, you don’t have to tuck away your favorite shimmery polished this October. In fact, a smidge of gold or silver will give your black French mani a chic feel.

Bring The Drama

Might as well go all out with your moody French manicure. Rather than a skinny line, ask your nail tech to draw on a thick coat on the top. It’ll make a statement for sure.

Striking Ombré

Love the ombré hair trend? Consider the effect on your nails. A black ombré French manicure with a gold rhinestone strikes the perfect balance of spooky and cute.

Cool Abstract

Take cues from Kourtney Kardashian’s design here and apply a thick black line on top and then a skinnier one on the bottom of your nails for extra intrigue.

Unique Shape

Switch things up by trying out a unique design with your French manicure, like a cool V-shape. Then, choose a dark polish to give the distinct look a moody vibe.

Fresh Nail Art

If you’re a fan of nail art, here’s an idea: Instead of a design on all five nails, pick two to compliment your French mani. A cute black cat is a seasonal favorite.
