Crisper temperatures and changing leaves call for lots of transitions; a change in your wardrobe being among the most important. As you pull out your cardigans, tights, and boots in shades of burgundy, olive, camel, and mustard, you may find yourself wanting a manicure to match. Lucky for you, there are plenty of autumn nail trends to try, one of the biggest being ombré.
And ombré doesn’t have to mean something complicated.
