Ok, on my vacation I must say that I took some time to pamper myself. I’ve got to be honest, spending hours on the internet – along with working meticulously with the keyboard, automatically gives way to some rancid looking nails (in my case). Between nail biting, hang nails, and everything that takes a toll on my fingers…..I’ve taken the intuitive on getting my nails UV gelled up. And let me say…I am finally happy. Shoot, I feel half way feminine! Then came my spur of the moment jolt of wanting to get my “end of the summer” pedicure (yesterday), I found myself at my local nail salon snubbing the various colors that sat neatly adored on the shelf. Wondering….’where have all of the colors gone?” – you ladies know what I mean. It’s either too light of a color, too dark, no in between. Granted….if you have a darker skin tone, your always wondering if you can get away with certain nail enamels. Everything that we see on the runways or in magazines isn’t meant to be worn by everyone. And yes…that is definitely a known fact! And this summer everyone was going crazy over the buzz surrounding Chanel’s Jade nail enamel….which is indeed interesting to the eye. According to a few sources- one of my favorites, All Lacquered Up, Chanel’s Fall nail collection “Jade” series features two soft hues of “jade green” & “jade rose” which was supposed to be offered later this fall. But NYC folks have the advantage tonight of popping the lids via Chanel boutiques in celebration of Fashion Night Out. Starting September 11th Chanel’s Jade Nail Collection will be sold for a limited time exclusively via Chanel.com & Chanel Make-Up Studios for $25 each. I definitely love how the pictures invoke a genuine jade colorway….but I am kind of curious as to know how it looks up close and personal. Only time will tell…..will you be the first on the scene rocking Chanel’s latest nail hues?
