Make-up Trend: Eggplant Nail Polish

Before you break out the holiday red nail polish you'll be wearing all season, take a cue from Rachel Roy at the Accessories Council ACE Awards in New York City and test drive a suitable transitional shade: deep, shiny purple. This hue tends to darken when dry, so select a color that's a little brighter and more magenta in the bottle. And as always, keep your nails short and rounded to avoid looking too goth.
