What camera lens should I purchase for shallow depth of field?

I own a Nikon D3100 (18-55 mm lens) and I really want to do more with my camera than what this lens allows. I'm looking for a lens that will give me really shallow depth of field, any suggestions? In addition to purchasing that lens, I am also looking to purchase a zoom lens. Any suggestions for that, too?
Price is definitely a factor, but I do want good quality, so I'm looking for a good compromise.
