Let’s take a stroll through Chanel Gardénia
Summer is in full swing, and it’s been a much busier time for me than I had ever expected. As I had shared last week, I have been selected as 1 of 10 finalists for the Singapore Blog Awards 2014, and there are a number of events and tasks that I have had to fulfill […]
Swatches of the new Chanel Les 4 Ombres ft. Tisse Gabrielle
Chanel’s recently reformulated eyeshadow quads, Les 4 Ombres, is finally here in Singapore! I had reviewed Tisse Venitien earlier, the feature palette that has been shown on all the marketing materials, and was in no particular hurry to go blow more dollars. But when I found myself inexplicably in front of a Chanel counter, I couldn’t […]
Doppelgänger spotted: Chanel Le Vernis 623 Mirabella
Chanel Le Vernis Mirabella (623) was the one nail polish from the Reflets d’Ete Collection that I had my eyes on the moment I spied the press images online. Orange is de rigueur this Summer 2014, and Mirabella was simply described as “orange”. I don’t know if there are different batches of Mirabella, but the one I […]
Chanel Reflets d’Ete Le Vernis 615 Sweet Lilac
For Summer 2014, Chanel brings us 5 Les Vernis - 1 Eastern Light is a re-release from Spring 2013, the others are new and limited edition with the exception of Tutti Fruiti. I will be reviewing these over the coming weeks, starting with Sweet Lilac (615). I was a little apprehensive when I first laid […]
Bronzed Goddess with Chanel Reflets d’Ete Summer 2014 Illusion d’Ombre
Aahh Chanel, just as I thought I was swearing off your little jars of glittery preciousness (because I never use them fast enough and then they dry up in loneliness)… you turn out even more gorgeousness! I wasn’t even keeping an eye out for these, but sometimes life is like that isn’t it? You just […]
Firstlook at the new Chanel Les 4 Ombres: Tisse Venitien
After nearly a century of dressing women in tweed, Chanel has taken the threads of the fabric and woven a new collection of eyeshadow quads for the eyes. There are 8 new Les 4 Ombres that have been released (and will be hitting most stores this summer) and will replace many of the existing ones. […]
Vacation musings: Let’s talk sun protection!
When I think vacations, I think sunny beaches, endless hours dozing on a hammock in the breeze. It’s interesting because not too long ago beach holidays didn’t interest me at all, I wanted to visit cities, museums, shopping, theater, etc. Probably another sign of aging. But whilst I cannot stay the test of time, I […]
Chanel Dentelle Précieuse Illuminating Powder
Few people would have expected this of me… I’m usually more of a contemporary, bold color & designs kind of person… but there is a softer side in me. And nothing brings out that aspect of me better than… lace! It’s the ultimate symbol of femininity, and speaks of strength in fragility, and impeccable handiwork. […]
