Chanel Blue Boy nail polish review

Chanel Blue Boy nail polish was originally introduced by Chanel for FNO 2011. I remember when Blue Boy first came out, along with Coco Blue and Blue Rebel. I wanted to get my hands on all three, but alas, they sold out faster than you can say “ring me up!”

When Chanel re-introduced Blue Boy for the winter 2015 season, I was thrilled! Here was my chance to snap up one of the beautiful blue nail polishes from Chanel’s FNO 2011 “Les Jeans Collection.” Chanel Blue Boy nail polish is fabulous! It is a medium denim hue which blends in with any medium-wash denim  you can place your hand next to. It is a casual blue color which offers a cool, slate-like vibe; ideal for any season of the year. Love that!

There are also so many shades of blue which are on trend for the spring 2015 season, this makes Chanel Blue Boy a great color to have in your nail polish wardrobe as move from winter into spring. 

I tested out Chanel Blue Boy nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color and no top coat. Chanel Blue Boy lasted a full seven days! Perfection 🙂

Suede for spring 2015

Spring 2015 suede: Skirt / Handbag / Shoes

Suede is one of those fabrications normally associated with fall clothing. Despite this association, designers have decided to break the stereotype and use suede in their spring 2015 collections. This nod towards the 1970’s inspiration found in many designers spring 2015 collections, is a soft and refreshing take on spring fabric.

Although not dominant in New York, suede was favored by Paris and Milan designers on the spring 2015 runways. This soft fabrication found in both real leather and faux, offers a vintage vibe reminiscent of the 1970’s. So many spring trends tie in with suede including fringe and boho-chic.

Suede can be found on everything including shoes, handbags, jackets and skirts for the spring 2015 season. I found a few fabulous suede items around the web for spring 2015. I hope you love them for spring! Happy shopping, and stay fabulous 😉

Voloom hair volumizing iron review

I have the type of hair that lays flat and also gets wavy. The one thing my hair does not have is natural volume. I was thrilled when iFABBO offered me the chance to test out Voloom’s Hair Volumizer. I was hoping this would be the device that gave me full hair.

I tested out Voloom’s Hair Volumizer on my hair. In order to use the device you have to pin up your top layer of hair. This is easy to do since Voloom provides you with clips. The idea is that you use Voloom’s Hair Volumizer on the hair under your top layer of hair. The volumizer works by separating your hairs in a checkerboard pattern which adds volume. After you add volume to your bottom and middle layers of hair, you release the clips and let your top layer of hair fall over your middle and bottom layers of hair. 

My hair is quite long and I am overdue for a haircut; so my hair has a lot of weight to it. I used Voloom as directed and did see an increase in volume I was surprised to see an increase in volume in my hair! I look forward to using Voloom every-time I want volume.
