NAACP Image Award Trends: Blacks, Nudes + Plum Shadow

    If you tuned in to the 2010 NAACP Awards you definitely saw some of the most fabulous black women in the industry sporting all of the latest fashion and beauty trends.

    Stars like Eva and Anika Noni Rose wore beautiful pale and nude colored dressed, paying homage to the coming spring season.

    In the makeup department one trend that stood out was plum eyeshadow.

    According to BellSugar,

    A plum-toned smoky eye proved to be the look of the evening at the 2010 NAACP Image Awards over the weekend. This hazy hue has just the right amount of punch to create the perfect amount of drama, but thanks to its richly pigmented finish, it also has a sophisticated feel. Pair this shade of purple shadow with a neutral or subtle berry–toned cheek and lip for a flattering style. (Just avoid choosing a plum shadow with pinkish undertones — a surefire way to make it look like you’ve missed out on a night or two of sleep.) And for something fun, use two purples in the mix, just like Gabrielle Union and CCH Pounder did.
