INSPIRATION: PERIDOT AND CHANEL

I'm in love with the Chanel nail polish from the Fall 2011 collection! My favourite shade is this one "Peridot", the same name of a gem whose shades Chanel reproduced. Usually an olive green tone, the amount of iron in Peridot will determine its colour and can include shades of yellow, brown and green (deep olive-green). The nail polish changes its tones also with the light. And the best is I put my nail polish a week ago and my nails are keeping the same brightness of the first day.

NEW YORK FASHION WEEK SPRING/SUMMER 2012 - OFF-CATWALK STYLE

I love the catwalk of course, I'm a fashionist! But what is happening off-catwalk, in the streets around can fascinates me pretty like the runways. There is my fave photos from NY streets during the fashion week Spring 2012 by Tommy Ton "My Street Seen". AMAZING!

I love to see how people, models and fashionists interpret the fashion trends and how they mix them and put their personal style on these trends ditacted by the catwalk. What I love most in current fashion is the diversity of styles. I think fashion never was so free style as now. So...get inspired!
