FALL BLUES (Chanel Le Vernis)

Its official. The end of summer is here *sigh*. While the weather in Montreal is still relatively warm, its hard to ignore the change in foliage and the leaves on the ground. What else would one expect, it is in fact October 1st!?

Personally, I love this time of year. For me it means switching into the comfort of my staple fall clothes and boots as well as transitioning my makeup routine into deeper tones to compliment the season.

One aspect that I find necessary in my beauty routine is to trade in my hot summer nail polish tones for a more neutral fall look. While visiting Paris this past summer,  we went to Chanel in search of some new colors to use for a versatile day to day look. I usually steer towards dark colors like a deep red or burgundy, but I decided to switch it up and set my sights on a navy blue tone called "Blue Rebel".

To put it lightly, I LOVE this color. This time of year I find myself wearing more denim which perfectly compliments this matte tone. Chanel has a wide variety of blue tones that I definitely recommend you discover for yourself. The nail color is quite long lasting, however, to maintain my nails underneath I match it with Butter London Nail Foundation and Topcoat. I always rave about Butter London as they have amazing quality and variety when it comes to nail care as their ingredients don't wreck havoc on your nail beds. Always a plus!

So that is what I am wearing this season!
