Scary Stitching These stitched up nails have us channeling our inner Sally Skellington. To pull off this Halloween nail art, pick three of your favorite nail colors. We recommend starting with a seasonally appropriate orange polish, like Essie Nail Polish in Sexy Divide, Fear or Desire and Vices Versa. Then, use a black nail art brush to "stitch" each color together for a spooky-chic look.

Some great Halloween inspired nail ideas! The zombie nails are so realistic, it's eerie. My favorite idea though is the ghosts. So doable and so cute.
