Dior is hitting home runs this year in the nail polish department! How fabulous are these variations on pinkish-red nail polish? Love them!!!

Prior to releasing their fall nail polish collection, which I believe consists of three sparkling, iridescent fall hues, Dior is offering a twist on classic, pink-red nail polish for our transition from late summer, into early fall. Hence, the pre-fall 2021 nail polish collection from Dior offers colors we can wear now, as well as any season of the year. Love that!

If you are like me, and you tend to shy away from true reds, you will love this collection. Dior Grace offers an understated, pink-red hue which has beige undertones. If you are more of a dark pink fan, Dior Desir has more dark pink than red in its’ formula, and I have to admit, it is my favorite from the collection. If you are a wild and crazy gal, Dior Victoire is your late summer, early fall color. It is a dark version of fuchsia with red undertones.

Something to note: if you work in a conservative environment, or you have a dress code, Dior Grace and Dior Desir should suit you well. In fact, these colors will be better for a work environment with dress code restrictions than the upcoming fall collection. This might mean the pre-fall 2021 nail polish collection from Dior will be your fall hues. They are fabulous and perfect for fall; yet they transcend season, so you can wear them now, and into next year. Go ahead, use up that bottle until the last drop!

Now, without further ado, here are the three nail polish colors from the Dior nail polish pre-fall 2021 collection!

Dior nail polish pre-fall 2021 | Dior Grace

Dior Grace nail polish is close to a dark rose hue. This polish mixes red, pink, and dark beige. It’s very pretty, and it’s the color I am wearing right now as I type this article. I would say this is the most conventional of the three colors, and the ideal choice for a work environment. Grace by Dior is also the easiest of the three hues to wear with any color palette. You will not find this one clashing with any of your summer or fall clothing. It’s a fabulous alternative to a neutral, and it acts like one too! Love that!

Oh, I love this one too. Dior Desir nail polish is more of a pinkish-red nail polish. It is bold, yet still offers a classic and timeless vibe. Desir by Dior is also an easy color to wear with your summer and fall color palette. I feel like it has more of a fall vibe than Grace; yet can still work in late summer, and the upcoming winter season.

Are you bold? Dior Victoire nail polish is the color for you! This is a dark fuchsia which is a great fall and winter hue. The darker composition allows it to be worn in the cooler months, yet it still has enough of a bright pink-red tone to offer a side of wild fun. This is definitely the notice-me color from the collection. Love!

Summer beach bags 2021

Beach season is here! I love a fabulous straw beach tote this season since straw totes are hotter than hot; plus, when they get sand inside, they are easier to clean than a canvas tote. Love that!

Summer beach bags come in various sizes depending on what you need it for at the beach. A smaller tote can handle items such as a book, sunscreen, and baseball cap. Whereas a larger tote can fit a towel, lightweight sweatshirt for when the fog rolls in, a book, sunscreen, and snacks. The size you get depends on what you like to bring with you to the beach. I also like to look at my beach tote as something which can work at the pool too. So that is something to keep in mind if you are looking at the beach bag to work at the pool too.

I tend to carry two beach bags because I have kids who like to bring extra items to the beach. I normally will have one large beach bag filled with multiple towels and sweatshirts, and also a smaller beach tote with a book, snacks, and sunscreen. Yes, I am one of those bag ladies at the beach. haha
