Chanel Chaine Or nail polish is a beautiful, bold, gold nail polish hue from Chanel’s new, and reformulated, longwear nail polish collection. This bright, gold hue is perfect to wear now, as we move into warmer weather, and again during the holiday season. It is a light-hearted, festive nail polish shade perfect for celebrating holidays, or life in general!

The Chanel long wear nail polish collection includes fifteen new, reformulated nail polishes in both new colors, and best-selling colors. The improved, 5-free formula, includes bioceramics, and ceramides which are known to improve the quality of the nail. I love the fact that Chanel nail polishes are made from good, safe ingredients which are not harmful, yet still deliver a chip-free manicure experience.

Chaine Or nail polish by Chanel is a fabulous first color to try from the new longwear collection. It is a versatile color which is easy to wear on a daily basis, or for special occasions. Gold matches everything! Love that!

I tested out Chanel Chaine Or nail polish with one base coat, two coats of longwear color, and one top coat. The new nail polish formula performed just as well as it’s predecessor. When my nails grew after one week, I changed my nail polish which was chip-free, due to my nail growth. I love long lasting polish!

Chanel Chaine Or longwear nail polish is a bold, bright gold hue which is anything but shy. This color is definitely attention getting, and fun to wear! It sparkles in the sunshine, and enhances any metal color ring. I love the look of metallic nail polish when paired with a bold, statement ring. It really brings all the colors together beautifully.

I am really excited about Chanel’s new longwear nail polish collection. There are so many colors, I am not sure I will be able to buy them all. I will pick out a few, and review them for you. If you see any colors from the collection you would like me to review, please let me know in the comments below. In the meantime, enjoy Chanel Chaine Or nail polish! It is such a pretty color, and it is a great staple to keep in your nail polish collection for special occasions, holidays, and any day you feel festive!

How fabulous did Gabrielle Union look at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party earlier this week! She wore a beautiful gown by Georgine, which is hot off the fall 2016 New York Fashion Week runway. She also kept her hair down in a flirty, undone bob. She looked amazing!

I love how she kept her jewelry simple, allowing the dress to shine. She looked fabulous! Her strappy black sandals were also perfect for the dress.

You can easily recreate her entire look, head to toe, at home! Her dress can be found at Georgine.com, and I found similar earrings and shoes online. Here is a similar pair of earrings which would look amazing with the dress. I also found two pairs of really cute shoes. This pair is under $200, and this pair is a fabulous designer splurge!

I also love that she kept her hair down, and simple in an undone bob. Smooth ‘N Shine has shared with us the steps to recreating Gabrielle Union’s Vanity Fair Oscar Party hairstyle at home!

Stay tuned! I will have Georgine’s entire fall 2016 collection from New York Fashion Week posted soon. Below you can find the hair products used on Gabreille Union’s hair, and my similar accessory picks. For more Georgine, please visit Georgine.com.

dolce & gabbana bonbon nail polish review and swatch for spring 2016

Nail Polish c/o Dolce & Gabbana Bonbon nail polish for spring 2016 from the Rosa Look beauty collection

Dolce & Gabbana Bonbon nail polish is a beautiful pink nail lacquer from the designing duo’s spring 2016 makeup collection, Rosa Look 2016. This fabulous beauty collection for spring offers various shades of pink, and rose, lipsticks, eye shadows, and nail colors; with complementing hues in black and white. Bonbon is my favorite nail hue from the collection.

Bonbon by Dolce & Gabbana for spring 2016 is a fabulous, vivid pink, cream nail polish which plays well with both pastels, and brights. Although it is in the soft pink family, Dolce & Gabbana Bonbon nail polish for spring 2016 offers vivid color saturation; and enough brightness to never be overshadowed by a sunny spring day! Love that!

I tested Dolce & Gabbana Bonbon nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and one top coat. The polish lasted a full week before my nails grew, and it needed to come off. I love this color so much, and the fact that it is long lasting; so I have decided to wear it during New York Fashion Week! You will definitely see this on my nails over the course of the week.

Dolce & Gabbana Bonbon nail polish from the Rosa Look 2016 collection is also a fabulous color to keep on hand as a nail polish wardrobe staple. The brightness of the pink gives it enough sass to not fall into the soft pink “too springy” category. This color can easily be worn all year round; in any season. It is a great pink to own if you tend to shy away from pastels, but want to get in on the current pink nail polish trend. It’s a grown up pink 😉

The Rosa Look 2016 Collection also offers a fuchsia nail polish hue named “Bacio” as well as a classic white nail polish, “Innocence,” and a timeless black color, “Lava.” Dolce & Gabbana’s spring 2016 nail polish colors can be found online here.
