We typically let our nails go nude in the Spring and Summer, when we can't really be bothered to deal with getting our digits done. But if that Fall 2014 runways at New York Fashion Week told us anything, it's that this trend can absolutely translate to the cooler months. Swarms of designers sent models with barely there manicures down the runway. But the lovely thing about this trend is that nude doesn't always mean flesh-toned. Scroll on to see the minimal manicures that will inspire your polish choices come September.
