This fall it's less about nail art and more about basic, solid colors, like ruby reds, navy blues and emerald greens. But don't think typical matte shades only. There's plenty of shimmer and shine in these polishes. In fact, there are so many cool new shades it was hard to narrow things down to a selected few.

Violet
I'm obsessed with OPI Do You Have This Color in Stock-holm ($10) from the Nordic Nail collection. This deep, dark purple is actually sophisticated enough to wear to work and after hours!
Metallic gold
Sally Hansen's Miracle Gel in Game of Chromes ($10) makes for a nicer and darker nude.
Dusty purple
The Dior Vernis Pied-De-Poule Polish ($25) is a soft purple with hints of gray. It's as versatile as a pair of denim blue skinny jeans.
Pale pink
Want a feminine color that's not too girly? Try Jin Soon Nail Lacquer in Nostalgia ($18). It's the perfect fair medium.
Sheer white
Put away your nude nail polish colors and switch things up with a sheer white shade, like Essie Polish in Marshmallow ($9). It's perfect for French manis too!
Navy blue
For the girl who loves herself some black nail polish. Amp up your look with a classic navy shade, like Dolce & Gabbana Intense Nail Lacquer in Peacock ($25).
Mixed metals
Bold gold glitter and metallic shimmer will take you into the holidays with style. Try Nails Inc Alex Sequins Polish ($15).
Ruby red
A ruby red polish is just as classic as a little black dress, meaning it will never go out of style! I love Lancome Vernis In Love Brillance Gloss Polish in Miss Coquelicot ($15).
Gray green
Essie's Polish in Fall in Line ($9) is a greenish gray that pairs perfect with classic autumn colors. You can't go wrong!
Emerald
Emerald was big last fall, but this season it's back with shimmery vengeance. Try Butter London British Racing Green Nail Lacquer ($15).
