Chanel has a new lipstick! Get excited!! The new Rouge Coco Bloom lipstick collection is a hydrating and plumping lipstick line which offers strong pigmentation and shine. Love!

I don’t do fillers, so plumping lipsticks are always a fun way to plump up the lips. Normally, when I try a plumping lipstick, there is a tingling sensation as the lipstick has an ingredient which irritates the lip skin, which in turn, makes the lips plump up. Chanel would never do that to us. There is nothing irritating about this lipstick. That being said, I didn’t really see a plumping effect either. So, there’s that. . .

This lipstick does do something which I love. Chanel’s Rouge Coco Bloom lipsticks offer the pigmentation of a cream lipstick combined with the moisture and shine of their regular rouge coco lipstick collection. This makes the Rouge Coco Bloom lipstick collection the best of both worlds; pigment and moisture. Love that!

I am a huge fan of Chanel’s various rouge coco lipstick lines. They are always moisturizing, and they offer the right color when I need it. If you are looking for a lightweight lipstick with strong pigmentation, but don’t want to wear a liquid lipstick or a cream lipstick, then this is your new lipstick!

For spring, I purchased three colors, which you can see above. I plan on purchasing lipstick from this collection again in future seasons. The pigmentation combined with the lightweight, moisturizing formula, makes this a great alternative to a cream lipstick. Love!

Dior nail polish sells out fast! If you love a color, it’s imperative you snap it up right away. Of course, that isn’t always possible, and I get it. I lost track of how many times I have missed out on a beautiful Dior nail polish color simply because it sold out before I could get to it. It’s hard being a nail polish fan!

Thankfully, one of my readers reached out and asked about similar hues for Dior Pink Sakura nail polish; a color from Dior’s spring 2021 beauty collection. Since my original post receives a lot of traffic, I suspect a lot of you have been searching for a similar hue too! So, I looked at my favorite nail polish brands, Dior, Chanel, and Essie, and I found a few similar hues to Dior Pink Sakura. If you missed out on the original, never fear, the similar hues are here!

You might be wondering why I placed this post in my Designer or Deal thread. Well, since Dior is designer, and Essie is a deal, I felt like it fit. I hope you think so too 🙂

Which similar color do you like best? I hope this post helps, and stay tuned! I am un-patiently waiting for Dior’s summer nail polish collection to arrive. As soon as it does I hope to snap it up and share it with you!. Chanel too!

Thanks for stopping by!

Spring 2021 swimwear

The weather is starting to get better! This means it is time to start thinking about pool and beach wear!

As the economy continues to open up, and more people are vaccinated, it is safe to start going out more. This means, the beach and pool parties are calling our names! Time to get our outfits ready!

The 2021 swim season has a few new swimwear trends for us to fall in love with. We are looking at swimwear which is easier to move in, so we can play in the pool, and at the beach. Another trend this swim season is the one shoulder one-piece. I love this one. It really looks high-fashion by the pool or at the beach. That blue one shoulder suit above is calling my name; and it’s in my shopping cart!

The bikini is the two-piece of the year. Look for tank style tops, one shoulder tops, and twisted fabrics. For the bottom of the bikini, we are reliving the 1980s with higher hips cuts, and waistbands up to the belly button; if not covering the belly button. The backs of suits this year are a bit cheeky; so don’t cheat on your squats and lunges! Work that bootie!

Since spring can be a little cooler than summer, look for cover-ups which can cut the wind or keep you a little bit warmer. I love these jumpsuits, long cover-up dresses, and these cover-up pants. This time of year, it’s a good idea to carry a lightweight cardigan sweater or sweatshirt with you to the pool or the beach. You never know then the wind will kick up, or the fog will roll in!
