I'm sure you've all heard of the covetable new chanel 'le vernis' nail varnishes.
Chanel always seem to produce the 'it' nail colour of the season, jade, particulere, paradoxal, and now black pearl. Equally as gorgeous in my opinion is it's more angelic counterpart, pearl drop.
To begin, black pearl.
A deep gunmetal shot through with a teal iridescence, there are also veins of silver shimmer.
I've never been one for black or very deep nail colours, but this is much less harsh and more wearable than the traditional black.
The first coat, i find is slightly thin and translucent, the second brings out the depth, and the third creates a wonderfully murky finish.

Next up is Pearl Drop, a milky, creamy white pearl with yellowy golden tones, this really is the perfect pearl shade.
I think it would be beautiful on the toes in summer with a tan, and though i like it now i really do think bronzed skin would give it the best backdrop.
For a 'polished' look i would use just one coat, but for maximum effect 3 looks the best.

There is also a beautiful peach shade, so i ask you, which would you choose?
