A new season with Les Fleurs de CHANEL Spring-Summer 2021

We may be in full-throttle winter mode, but I’m already looking ahead to warmer weather — and something about CHANEL’s recently launched Les Fleurs Collection for Spring/Summer 2021 hits all the right notes. For starters, it has the words “spring/summer” in it (yay) but who are we kidding? You guys know I’m ALL about CHANEL anything …

Well known as enjoying shaking up the beauty industry, NARS has just released the Climax Extreme Collection which builds on the success of the brand’s Climax Mascara which launched in 2018 (previously reviewed here).

The iconic Rouge Noir* family also has a new addition in the form of liquid liner, and even though I tend to reach for pencils, you can bet that I’ll be giving this one a whirl.
*Graciously gifted by CHANEL for my unbiased consideration

For CHANEL’s recent Fall/Winter 2020-2021 Ready-To-Wear show, Paris’ historic Grand Palais (aka: the brand’s go-to venue), was transformed into a representation of the River Seine. With undulating curves and a sinuous catwalk polished to mimic crystal clear water, the looks presented fit a nautical theme via swashbuckling influences, thanks to ruffles a-plenty and gleaming admiral buttons — but what truly captured me, was the makeup. I’ve probably said a billion times before how “wearable” a particular look might be, but this one truly tops them all.
