Chanel Riva Nail Polish and Unnamed Chanel Yellow

Any other fellow Chanel nail polish lovers out there?

Although I’m not a huge fan of the core Chanel nail colors (which have way cheaper alternatives out there in my humble opinion),  I die at the mere sight of their limited edition nail lacquers.  Sucks, because I’m usually in some remote place when the limited stuff releases.

The Internet was abuzz when close up photos from Chanel’s 2011 Resort Collection runway show was released with a closeup of a baby blue nail lacquer.  Everyone waited with abated breath wondering if Creative Director Peter Philips would indeed release this trendy yet delicate shade.  And now we know they’re going to release it – and we now know its name!  I present to you, Chanel Riva:

There’s not too many baby blues out there and this may just end my search for the perfect baby blue polish.  I wonder if it would have discrete shimmer like Chanel Jade?  The promo pic seems to suggest that:

And another bit of exciting news on the Chanel front: Eva Chen, the beauty editor of Teen Vogue, tweeted a preview of what’s to come for Chanel in May 2011.  I assume this is their Summer collection.  Look at that canary yellow!!!  Finally, looks like yellow polish is headed for the mainstream.  I only know very few people who like yellow polish as much as I do. :)

I will make sure to update this post as I get more info.

And because I love the concept of Chanel’s Resort collection, I am sharing a few more photos from the collection.  I love breezy, beachy clothes – I wish I could wear them all year long!

 

Don’t forget about my Asian polish giveaway!  I’m extending it until November 15, to allow more people to enter (and more time for me to go through entries).
