“For the nails, Karl wanted a green shade to evoke the jade notes of the collection. I worked with our laboratories to offer him a monochromatic palette of 10 green shades. We chose the color that most resembled the green tweed skirt suit from the collection,” - Peter Philips, CHANEL'S Global Creative Makeup Director

Hope everyone had a fabulous Halloween weekend! Mine could not of been anymore fun...nothing like eating, drinking & being scary with the folks you love!  

Well, as you can see I just cannot get enough of Miroslav Tichy! I absolutely love his work!  I read somewhere that he praised luck “Everything is about luck”, he said, "& how one can extract beauty from a mistake".  Hmmm, I like that...until next time my friends!

I'm loving these black patent ankle boots with the Chanel inspired blocked off toe.  Love how they look with tights - just imagine how cute they would look with a pair of nice dark wash skinny jeans! 

I've been attracted to patent & Jade green lately & thought these green peep toe ankle boots were a perfect dark Jade green!  Also like the look of all black with accents of light pink - very cute frilly mini & again with the black patent ankle boots...love!
