Purple Reign

You would be forgiven for thinking I was talking about the weather when I remind you that Spring Summer gave is Greige. But No! Even though uncannily like our skyline. Greige was in fact the nail colour shade that took the beauty world by storm. Not a grey nor a beige this bestselling shade even had a waiting list. Well it did you you wanted top wear the Chanel version daaaaahling.

This season we are taking it up a notch with a hint of purple. The shade associated with rock royalty. Purple Grey as predicted in February by the major playes in the fashion world is set to steal the limelight and rock the catwalk and Chanel have came up trumps with their take on the trend. Paradoxal is the colour to hit their already cult collection Le Vernis Nail Colour and is already selling out fast even at the £16.50 price tag. I've had flights cheaper than this but hey, anything for fashion folks.

Well you will be pleased to know that I've sourced a substitute for you at just £5.00. Yep. Models Own have a strikingly similar colour called Purple Grey and having tried both myself. They look pretty darn close. Available now from http://www.modelsownit.com/ and I'm told from October in Boots stores.
