Chanel Mediterranee nail polish for summer 2015 review

chanel mediterranee nail polish summer 2015 review

Pictured: Chanel Mediterranee nail polish from the summer 2015 beauty collection.

Chanel Mediterranee is a beautiful, bluish-teal nail polish color from Chanel’s summer 2015 beauty collection. This fabulous, oceanic hue is bright and carefree; ideal for the summer months!

Chanel is a master at creating blue nail polish hues. Mediterranee for summer 2015 is no exception. This beautiful blue hue is a cross between ocean blue and bright teal. It is a fresh color which plays well with summer’s vivid color palette; and it will look amazing at the beach and by the pool. Love that!

I tested out Chanel Mediterranee nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and no top coat. The nail polish was long lasting! Chanel Mediterranee lasted seven days before chipping. Perfection!

Chanel Mediterranee nail polish is from Chanel’s summer 2015 beauty collection. Mediterranee by Chanel can be found online here, here, and here.

Dennis Basso showed his fall/winter 2015/2016 collection at New York Fashion Week on February 16, 2015 in The Theater at Lincoln Center. The collection was luxurious; featuring furs, evening attire, deep navy, and a cool neutral color palette.

My pictures did not turn out from the show. But never fear, an IMG Video is here! Please view the press video below to watch Dennis Bassos’s fall 2015 runway show from New York Fashion Week. I love the gold gowns at the beginning of the show. Which looks were your favorite?

The weather is starting to heat up here in the San Francisco Bay Area. This means it is time to adjust what we wear! To stay cool last weekend, I paired this 1970’s inspired denim skirt with my favorite red blouse. I love how the brass buttons on my blouse play well with these Jenny Present earrings and Donald J Pliner wedges. The metals just work. 

I have also been extremely excited to get my hands on Kendra Scott’s summer collection, “Via Maya.” I am so excited for the collection, I purchased a couple pairs of earrings, a few rings, a bracelet. . .you see where this is going. Bye-bye paycheck! Every piece is worth every cent. I am in love with her summer line! This ring is my favorite. I bought the ring pictured above in both the brown pearl and abalone shell. I want the white version too; but money doesn’t grow on trees. . .so. . .if you hear of a money growing tree, let me know!

My beautiful eight year old daughter took these pictures. When we were taking pictures, she asked me if she can borrow this ring when she grows up. I think she has quite the eye for fashion! I also think she did a pretty good job taking these photos. She has an artistic eye! What do you think?
