Chanel has channeled their autumn archives for inspiration when they created the nail polish hues for their summer 2016 collection; at least, in my humble opinion. Almost every fall season, Chanel creates a beautiful brown nail polish hue which is timeless, and timely, for the autumn season. For summer 2016, Chanel Cavaliere nail polish is the Parisian design house’s early autumn gift to nail polish fans everywhere. It’s a fall brown!

There are no two ways around it; Chanel Cavaliere nail polish for summer 2016 looks like a fall brown. It is a medium-dark hue with a slight, sparkling undertone. It really makes me crave dark chocolate. It is entirely possible I have consumed a bit more chocolate this week than normal. Hmm . . .wonder why?! Ha!

Chanel Cavaliere nail polish is a beautiful, brown hue which is timeless, and fabulous. I love this shade! It is perfect to wear now, if you are already bored of your summer color palette, and it is also perfect to wear during the late summer months when we are all feeling like transitioning into the autumn season. I get August and September vibes from this color. Just sayin’ 😉

Although Chanel Cavaliere nail polish is part of Chanel’s new Longwear colour collection, I have found this particular hue wears like the old Chanel nail polish formula. I tested it out with one base coat, two coats of Chanel Cavaliere, and one gleaming top coat. I received one chip on my left pinky, and it wore slightly at the tips of the nails. The entire home-manicure lasted for eight days; which is quite good.

I love Chanel Cavaliere nail polish as a neutral hue for the fall season; I also feel like it would be a good color on toe nails since it is neutral. It should not clash with any summer footwear; that is always a plus!

Until I transition to fall, I will be using Chanel Cavaliere as my go-to toe nail polish. When autumn approaches, I will go back to my hands. What do you think of this very-autumn-hue for the summer 2016 season?

nautica voyage sport edt fathers day gift idea

Nautica Voyage Sport EDT is a new flanker fragrance to popular men’s fragrance Nautica Voyage EDT. This fresh take on Voyage by Nautica is a nautical, woody scent which offers an ideal fragrance experience for men on warm summer days. Love that!

The zesty, green top, and middle notes, combine with the woody, musky base to create a nautical fragrance experience with a slightly warm, woody base. It is ideal to wear throughout the summer on a daily basis. Nautica Voyage Sport EDT is light enough to wear to the office, and sporty enough for weekend activities. It is quite versatile!

Although most eau de toilette’s disappear after four to six hours, Nautica Voyage Sport EDT lasts throughout the day. It is long-lasting, and complex; a joy to wear throughout the day! My husband loves it! Of course, I like it on him 😉

 Top notes: sea spray accord, sea salt, coriander

Middle (heart) notes: citrus zest, geranium, green peppercorn, apple, palm leaves

Base notes: Brazil wood, musk, patchouli, vetiver

If you are looking for a fabulous gift for Father’s Day, an upcoming birthday, or late graduation gift, Nautica Voyage Sport EDT is the perfect choice! This is also a great gift idea to keep in mind for the holiday season later this year 😉

Hopefully Nautica will come out with more products in the Voyage Sport scent. My husband would love to see an after-shave, shower gel, and travel size spray. Perhaps a gift set will come out for the holiday season! Fingers crossed 😉

 Nautica Voyage Sport EDT can be found online here.

When I first laid eyes upon Turquoise by Dolce & Gabbana for summer 2016, I fell in love! This was a nail polish color I knew I had to have for the summer season. It was a little bit hard to find, since it had already sold out in several stores. Thankfully, I was able to find Dolce & Gabbana Turquoise nail polish for summer 2016 in stock, online here (USA), and online here (UK delivery only). Yes!

As with all Dolce & Gabbana nail polishes, the color is long lasting, even, and unique. I tested Dolce and Gabbana Turquoise nail polish for summer 2016 out with one base coat, two coats of color, and one top coat. It lasted a full week! Love that!

Turquoise is a fun color to wear in the summer months. It is bright, light-hearted, and plays well with most other color groups; except shades of red and orange.

I am looking forward to wearing Dolce & Gabbana Turquoise nail polish often this summer!
