Mani of the Week: BCA Nails with Geometric Accents
Why we love it: October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It affects one in eight women -- which means just about everyone will know someone in their lifetime who has been touched by the disease. Show your solidarity in style (no pink ribbons necessary) with this icy pink mani, balanced by an indigo blue linear design. It's feminine, modern and unexpected.
To get the look: Use OPI Infinite Shine Nail Lacquer,$12.50, in Suzi & The Arctic Fox and Reykjavik Has All the Hot Spots.

Mani of the Week: Fall-Hued Floral Nails
Why we love it: When you think of floral nails, you typically think spring or summer. Not in this case. Floral nails look stunning in fall-friendly shades like cherry red accented in bubblegum pink, black and white. The clean designs lend a nice pop of color on a dreary fall day.
To get the look: Use Julep Nail Color, $14, in Fran, Lottie, Vicki and Jet.

Mani of the Week: Delicate Leaf Designs
Why we love it: Winter white nails make an impact with cold months ahead. Black foliage motifs on a creamy white base creates a dreamy combination, paired with your favorite fuzzy sweater. The stark contrast makes the designs pop, yet the colors are neutral enough to pair with most anything.
To get the look: Use Cirque Colors Nail Lacquers,$12.50, in Don't Forget the Cannoli and Memento Mori.

Mani of the Week: Good vs. Evil Halloween Nails
Why we love it: Sometimes you just don't have time, willpower or (let's be real) skill to give yourself an intricate, freehand manicure. Just in time for Halloween, NCLA makes looking festive easy with their darling Disney collab -- the Good vs. Evil nail wrap collection. With eight different sets to choose from, you can mix and match wraps inspired by characters like Ariel, Ursula, Cruella de Vil, 101 Dalmations, Snow White, the Evil Queen, Maleficent and Sleeping Beauty. Applied like a sticker between your favorite base and topcoats and filed down to the size of your own nails, they couldn't be easier to apply and look like you totally nailed this year's Halloween costume.
To get the look: Use NCLA Nail Wraps,$17.95, in Evil Queen and Snow White.

Mani of the Week: Metallic, Multicolor Tips
Why we love it: The holidays will be here before we know it -- and with them come fabulous soirees and opportunities to display your affinity for all things sparkly. Whether you're looking for holiday party inspiration or you just really, really love glitter, this chic, celebratory design is equal parts festive and sophisticated. Either way, vibrant diagonal tips on top of nude nails are perfect for a holiday fête or an everyday celebration of the little things -- like a fresh manicure.
To get the look: Use Deborah Lippmann Nail Polish in Baby Love, $18, topped with Across the Universe, $20, and accented with colorful nail foils.
