Nail Polish Shades So Good You'll Want To Theme Your Outfit Around Them

With masses of holiday parties approaching, you're probably trying to figure out interesting ways to look your swankiest. I am a firm believer that the details matter as much as the overall look, which is why nail polish is one of my favourite touches for a party look.

I've selected some of the best new (and some older yet tried-and-true) shades for you to pick and paint with. Now just throw on some cocktail rings and you're done. Fabulous.

  • Dior Vernis in Merveille 651 ($22, nordstrom.com)

    I love the mix of bright pinky-red and gold shimmer in this. It's so very holiday-esque without being tacky or over-the-top. I plan on wearing this shade well into next Spring and Summer, too (that is, if the bottle hasn't run out by then).

  • Butter London 3 Free Lacquer in Chancer ($14, butterlondon.com)

    This is the perfect dark version of Dorothy's-ruby-slippers-red. It's a glittery crimson that is meant to be paired with dark glossy lips (one of Tom Ford's new lipglosses, perhaps?) and a party you plan on staying up 'til sunrise for. Your New Year's Eve shade, right here!

  • Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Viridian ($14, sephora.com)

    This shade reminds me of a forest of fragrant pine trees colliding with holiday spirits (of the alcoholic variety. Absinthe maybe? Where am I going with this?). Wear this if you're the kind of person who wants to feel glamorous but still kind of, you know, weird.

  • NARS Nail Polish in Night Breed ($21, narscosmetics.com)

    Are you that girl who knocks off the ho-hum office party to run off to some swingin' roof-top soirée? Well, this is the nail polish for you, you little party animal.The name alone sounds like some sort of French electro rock album, right? Wear this and you'll have your own mini disco balls at your fingertips. People still like disco balls, don't they?

  • Essie nail polish in Carry On, $8

    I can't get enough of deep reds and plums on my finger tips during the winter.
