Yes, you can finally retire those greige shades because fall's go-to dark polish isIndigo! While nude colors are also setting trends for fall, Elle recommends switching it up, and trying this edgy shade of blue for evenings.

It has been spotted on the runways and advertisements of Cacherel, DKNY, and Zac Posen fall lines.

Since dark shades show wear and tear faster than a neutral tone, prep nails with a base coat. It gives the polish something to adhere to so it won't chip as quickly and also prevents the polish from staining the nail.

A groomed, round (never square) edge and a bit of length complements this color.


Recommended shades: OPI's Russian Navy; Dior's Tuxedo; and YSL's Moonlight Blue.
