Inspired by Japanese Akoya pearls, CHANEL’s Perles et Éclats Collection draws on Coco Chanel’s love of these lustrous gems and their complex luminosity, with several pieces here absolutely delivering on that aesthetic. For example, feast your eyes on that exquisite highlighter … I rest my case.

To try now: Beauty from CHANEL Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2021

 

 

This past January 26th, CHANEL held their Haute Couture Spring Summer 2021 show at Paris’ Grand Palais (the Maison’s venue of choice, I might add) and even with all the Covid safety measures in place, there was clearly an air of joy & unity present.

Beautiful! OPI Neo Pearl Collection

 

A while back, OPI released the Neo-Pearl Collection which consists of 12 pearlescent shades, but in a first for the brand: 6 are in the regular formula and 6 in the Infinite Shine formula, with none of the colours duplicated. I’m a little behind in posting this, but with the incredibly warm & sunny weather we’ve been having here in Montréal, these summery hues seem to fit in so perfectly right now!
