Price Range $76-$100

If you don't want to wear every shade in this Marc Jacobs palette, $99, I'm going to assume you were hit in the head with an icicle while on a romantic sleigh ride. Because that's the only logical explanation. It has just the right amount of neutral shades and jewel tones to create a variety of looks -- shadows eight and nine (a sheer olive green and shimmer pewter, respectively) look particularly captivating when paired together.

Price Range $100+

If you're looking to splurge on a palette, let it be this one, $210. The Venetian-Masquerade-inspired collection is drop dead gorgeous to behold. The real statement is the to-die-for eye shadow quad -- the outside is a work of art, and the inside is imprinted with a mask design you won't want to mar with your shadow brushes (but you will, because the colors are irresistible). A rich Bordeaux mascara and crimson lipstick round out the set.
