At this point in the season, we still don’t know who will be going head to head in Super Bowl LII (but we DO know Justin Timberlake will be performing the half-time show!), but that doesn’t mean you can’t start prepping the nail portion of your game day attire. Whether you are a die hard football fan, or just hit up the parties because of all the great food, Super Bowl Sunday is the perfect excuse to do a fun mani. We’ve rounded up some stylish Super Bowl manicures that will get you in the spirit in no time.

1. Pigskin & Turf

Keep it neutral and all about football with this cute pigskin and turf mani. You don’t need to pledge your allegiance to any one team while sporting this look. All you need is a festive green, some brown for your football nails and a little free-hand action to create the laces!

The Refs aren’t always the favorite people on the field, but you’ll give them a run for their money with this posh Referee manicure. Use nail wraps or try and free hand this style, cover your entire nail or just the tips- this mani will have you calling all the shots.

3. Football Frenchie

While this definitely mirrors the style we saw in the first mani in our list, we have to say we are loving the football frenchie! Instead of painting your entire nail green, make it fancy and just paint the tips. Touchdown!

4. All About Football

Proclaim your love of football with this somewhat detailed football mani. It doesn’t matter who’s got skin in the game because this is all about the brown and white. Whip out your nail art brushes and get to working- this kind of detail probably works best when confined to an accent nail, not every nail or you’ll be there forever!

5. Field of Dreams

He could…go…all…the…way!!! Your nails are a touchdown waiting to happen and are pretty easy to do. Grab your green polish and your nail art brush to do some basic striping, then add your field yards. Voila!

If there is one thing I wish I had more time for, it would be manicures. Believe it or not, I can count on just a few fingers how many manicures I’ve had in my 30+ years of life. The reality is, my nails have never been a priority for me. But now that I’m a mom, taking care of and pampering myself is something I strive to make time for. Even though getting a manicure is a luxury and not a necessity, I know it would be a great confidence booster and make for a fun girls day activity!

If you are looking for new nail design to try this fall, I love these! They are festive, fun and sure to make your season more enjoyable.

1. Autumn Leaves

You can’t have fall without leaves, right? And this design hits the nail (no pun intended) on the head with the fall colors! I love how each nail has the same overall design, but is also individually unique.

Head over to Wondrously Polished for the full tutorial on this adorable design.

2. Scarecrow

Anytime I hear the word scarecrow, I can’t help but think of The Wizard Of Oz (one of my all-time favorite movies!) and the “If I Only Had A Brain” song. Luckily, wearing a scarecrow on your fingertips is totally cool and you can create this scarecrow nail design regardless of your brain capacity (although I’m sure your brain works plenty well).

If you want to try this look for yourself, check out Slightly Nail Polished for the how-to.

3. Diagonal Stripes

This look is gorgeous! The fall colors and glittery texture make this nail design great for a night out. It will take your daytime jeans and tee look up a notch, and step up your fancy game in an evening dress.
