Every year when Halloween rolls around, I start thinking about costumes—but honestly, my nails steal the show way before I figure out what I’m wearing.
Black and orange Halloween nail designs are my go-to because they’re festive without trying too hard. I’ve done everything from cute little ghosts to dripping tips that look like spooky candle wax.

Sometimes I mix in glitter or go full-on creepy with spiderwebs and bats. It’s the one time I let my nails get wild, and I love flipping through ideas to see how far I can push the theme.
