Dior Steel Grey nail polish is a hot new nail colour from Dior for the fall 2016 season. Steel Grey by Dior is exclusively available online here, and is part of Dior’s special edition collection for fall 2016.

The fall 2016 season is all about red nail polish, and metallics. I am a little bit bored of red nail polish, so I am drawn towards metallics for the autumn season. I am already a fan of metallic polishes, so it is exciting to see what designers are coming up with for fall 2016!

I love Dior Steel Grey for fall 2016. It is a medium, metallic grey which resembles dark pewter. I find it edgy yet glamorous; while remaining neutral. Love!

This a great neutral, and go-to color for the fall season. It is also perfect if you seek an alternative to red nails. You can find Dior Steel Grey nail polish for fall 2016 online here.


Chanel Emeraude nail polish for summer 2016 review

Chanel Emeraude nail polish is a vivid, dark green nail polish hue from Chanel’s summer 2016 beauty collection. This seemingly autumn hue, is just bright enough to border on a summer green; yet dark enough to be a good transitional color for the late summer, and early fall season. Love that!

While dark green is normally a color we see in the fall season, Chanel has thrown out the notion of traditional seasonal hues, and they have given us a fall brown, as reviewed here, and a fall green; with a twist. Although the summer brown nail polish hue offered an extremely autumn vibe, Chanel Emeraude nail polish offers a mixture of summer and fall; making the shade transcend season.

Chanel Emeraude nail polish is a fabulous color to wear this summer season in contrast to all of the bright colors, and girlish pinks, we are seeing in nail polish this season. Emeraude by Chanel is an evergreen hue, with a slight sparkle undertone, which plays well with summer neutrals, as well as summer brights. It also offers a fresh take on what summer green is supposed to look like.

I tested out Chanel Emeraude nail polish with one base coat, two coats of Emeraude, and one shiny top coat. The nail polish wore well for a full week. I had a little bit of wear on my right hand, but I believe it is from cleaning the kitchen without gloves. I am really bad about wearing gloves to do housework.

This will be a fun color to wear later on in the summer when I start to style my summer clothing in the fall trends. It looks amazing with shades of brown, and summer neutrals. I love the earthy vibe it gives off.

Chanel Cavaliere nail polish summer 2016

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?
