These Are the 7 Best Halloween Nail Colors to Try

The season of spooky fashion (aka Halloween) will be here in the blink of an eye. And to be honest, it's never too early to start prepping your costume, which we've actually already started to do for you. We've spotlighted some great It girl–approved costumes, found modest dress-up ideas perfect for the office, and even looked to the internet for some costume trends that will be big.

We recognize, though, that costumes might not be everyone's cup of tea. But that doesn't mean you can't be festive in some other way: Cool makeup is one option for adding a bit of spook to your routine without having to take a major sartorial plunge, as is painting your nails with one of the below Halloween nail colors. Think: a blood red, slime green, and classic orange, plus a few more that can look just as spine-chilling as a skeleton costume. All of these are a low-commitment way to celebrate October 31.

Ahead, see seven Halloween-appropriate polishes we'll be swiping on our nails when we're just not in the mood to piece together a costume.

You can't go wrong with red nail polish. It's classic, but also spooky, especially when paired with an all-black look. Vampire vibes, anyone?

Black nail polishes ooze grunge vibes, which is why it's perfect for the spooky season—but best of it, it pairs well with everything.

Slime green is still reigning supreme in the fashion and beauty worlds, and that's exactly why you should consider sporting the hue on your nails come Halloween. Plus, it's perfect for a Frankenstein-inspired nail design.

Sorry to state the obvious, but orange nail polish is about as essential to Halloween (and fall) as candy corn. 

Royal purple is elegant, but when paired with a lacey black dress or a slime-green top, it becomes a tad bit more terrifying (in the best way possible, of course).

Blue polish is dark and sinister, but not quite as mysterious as black. It also pairs well with everything.

When in doubt, metallic it out. The shiny lacquer is great for a disco-inspired costume (or maybe a space-themed one). 

Next up, 10 fall nail trends that are blowing up this year.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
