morechanelmakeupfw11After previewing fall make-up trends from the runway back in February, I have to say I am most excited about CHANEL's collection. In a word: metallics. Dramatic, at that. 

While I was too late to pick up Illusion D'Ombre long-wear gel eyeshadow in Epatant (the green featured below that I love), I did manage to snag Illusoire, a gorgeous greige/purple shade (featured left). Phenomenal! The new matte lipstick (I want plum) won't arrive until September, but I suspect it will be worth the wait.

As for nails, I finally picked up CHANEL's Graphite nail color. This shade is way cooler on than in the bottle. It is glittery magic with just a hint of seafoam green behind the gray. I'm giddy with anticipation to get this color on my nails!

So what colors can we expect to see this fall? Bronze, gold, copper, khaki, platinum, metallic green and plum. A stunning palette perfectly suited for my fall '11 mood!

When you tweeted about the polishes, I was convinced I needed Peridot. Now,
between this and your last tweet on the Graphite being barely seafoam, I just
might have to get 2. Pooey says my wallet.

You will love Graphite. There's just a hint of green behind the gray to make it
over-the-top good!
