Chanel Azure nail polish from the summer 2013 beauty collection review

Chanel Azure is the sparkling new, blue-green nail polish color from Chanel’s summer 2013 beauty collection. This beautiful nail polish color offers a blue and green color kaleidoscope on your fingertips! Not since Peridot has Chanel designed a nail polish which changes color according to the light and angle of the hand. Love this!

Azure by Chanel is simply stunning. I am not really sure how else to describe it! Chanel Azure looks like a deep water hue when set against a swimming pool; as shown in the photo below.

Chanel Azure nail polish also sparkles and shines in direct sunlight; as seen in the below picture.

I also love the green-blue color saturation of Chanel Azure in the shade; as shown in the below photograph

Chanel Azure nail polish for summer 2013 is a cool, sparkling blue green which works perfectly with the season’s blue palette, shades of green and also adds the perfect color pop to summer’s black and white trend. While the color does not play well with summer 2013’s orange, red or brown hues, it does compliment yellow and pink which are also hot colors for the summer season.

In all of the photos I used one base coat and two coats of Chanel Azure without a top coat. The nail polish lasted for six days before chipping. This is by far my favorite nail polish color from Chanel’s summer 2013 beauty collection. I plan on wearing Azure as much as possible over the summer months! I hope you love it too!

Chanel Azure is priced at $27 and can be found online here. Happy shopping, and stay fabulous

Bright colors, pointed toes and 1980’s inspiration

Pattern, bright colors, pointed toes and 1980’s silhouettes are all hot trends for spring/summer 2013. These are trends which I love! I decided to mix them all together, which this Milly dress helped me do  , and bright out the color of 2013 through accessories. What is your favorite way to mix these trends for spring?
