The shirtdress is a classic dress style. This timeless silhouette has been reinvented season after season appearing with varying sleeve lengths, collars, hemlines, and button patterns. For summer 2015, the shirtdress takes on a slim silhouette, single button pattern, double breast pocket design, and tie waist belt. The collars on shirtdresses for summer 2015 are being shown in every style imaginable. Love that!

The shirtdress for summer 2015 is considered a casual style best worn during the day and on weekends. Shirtdresses can easily be worn with flat sandals, high heel sandals, summer booties, and casual pumps. Shirtdresses also look amazing for summer 2015 when styled with an on-trend bucket bag, or flap closure shoulder bag, reminiscent of the 1970’s.

Fabrications for summer shirtdresses are mostly in natural fibers such as cotton, and silk. There are a few styles being found in soft polyester, and rayon. Look for crisp cottons, or flowing silks, for the most “of-the-moment” look in shirtdresses this season.

Although not a dominant runway trend, shirtdresses are a favorite on the street; making them one of the hottest street style trends in casual attire for the summer 2015 season.

I found a few fabulous shirtdresses around the web and assembled them into the shopping widget below. I hope you love them ! I am eyeing the pale blue dress featured above. Love it! Happy shopping, and stay fabulous 😉

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.

Chanel Lavanda nail polish for summer 2015 review

chanel lavanda nail polish summer 2015 review

Chanel Lavanda nail polish is a fabulous purple nail colour from Chanel’s summer 2015 beauty collection. This bright purple hue is warm and playful; allowing it to work well with summer’s bright color palette. Love that!

Lavanda by Chanel is a cream nail polish color with a sleek, high-gloss finish. The first coat goes on with a thin coat of color. To achieve the bottle color with streaking, the second coat needs to be thick, or else a total of three thin coats need to be applied. The end result is a marvelous purple nail polish which brightens each day. Love purple!!!

I tested out Chanel Lavanda with one base coat, two coats of color (three of my nails needed three coats), and no top coat. Lavanda by Chanel lasted longer than most Chanel nail polishes. It was seven days before I received a chip! I am definitely in love 😉 As a note, during those seven days I did some housecleaning without wearing gloves, and I spent some time in the warm sun. The cleaning chemicals, and the direct sunlight did not fade, crack, or weaken my Chanel Lavanda nail polish. That is a rare and notable occurrence!

Chanel Lavanda will be a fabulous nail polish to wear this summer 2015 season; as well as right now! The color works well with the seasons’ color palette and the nail polish is long lasting. This means spending time in the sun, and enjoying outdoor activities, are a little bit less stressful; you will not have to worry about chipping your nail polish, especially with the addition of a top coat. Fabulous!
