Chanel Fall 2012 Vernis

I don't know what it is about Chanel nail polish, but it's probably the only makeup product I ever get excited about.  I know nothing about foundation or blush or mascara etc.  I very rarely buy makeup and have used the same products for years with the addition of a few necessary items, like bronzer in the dead of winter so I don't look like a corpse.  Nail polish allows me to experiment with cool colours in a way makeup doesn't (since I am challenged when it comes to application and I end up looking like a hooker when I try).  I particularly love Chanel nail polish because the colours of the upcoming season are always trend starters, anticipated and coveted. And who doesn't love the luxe look of the nail polish bottles themselves.

I'm not a huge fan of the 'Suspicious' colour but I am loving the neutral colour of 'Frenzy' and the greyish tones of 'Vertigo'.  Since Chanel nail polish is expensive, I usually wait to go through Duty Free on a trip to pick one up.  Look's like I'll have to do it at the end of August on my way back from London.  Perfectly in time for the beginning of Fall.
