This is the second week that we move in our
new flat. A quantity amount of hardboard boxes are awaited, a pile of books and
magazines stand by, several pieces of jewelry spread around at corners of
wardrobe; I am exhausted now and then but still, I am happily busy rearranging
my favourite mini items for their organized household.
It is bizarre but true, that we always
rediscover the forgotten goods while packing them, or precisely, unpacking them.
A lovely illustrated book by Megan Hess, about fashion icon Coco Chanel,
wrapped with milky white silky paper, bound around by the silver-logo ribbon,
and finally attached a silver pistil camellia flower, is a generous gift from a
retail owner. While I always believe that new home owns new deco, as well my
styles can be yet chic and fresh, thereupon, Chanel Le Vernis Pink Rubber #542,
Vibrato #665 and Fortissimo #681, the pinkish and le bleu are the perfect match
to mix and play, on my toes, to celebrate the ownership of our new home.
Pink Rubber #542 is Chanel holiday limited
edition in 2016, which is an edgy interpretation of classic polish, formulated
with certain powders to leave nails a shine-free, matte finish. Unlike the pale
effect of Ballerina #167, Pink Rubber #542 can contrast more of the feminine
touch together with either neon navy feel of Vibrato #665, or twilight metallic
hue from Fortissimo #681. In single coat they are all perfectly opaque, and the
consistency and formula are no doubt exquisite, and for the toenails, wearing
Chanel Le Vernis can sustain for over 3 weeks, almost without any minor tip
wear.
The strongest passion on my jewelry
collection, is not relying on bracelet, not necklace, nor even ring, but boucle
d’oreilles, as known as earrings. At first I hold doubt if I would still wear
dangling style while spot this Chanel glass pearl pair, since I don’t bother
the glamorous bling to enhance my rather minimalistic daily outfit, but this
craftsmanship with burgundy metal and iconic double interlock C logo, I was
allured by its Byzantine era touch (burgundy is more of visual amaze than the
navy blue version) and the size of pearl drop is not too round, not overwhelm,
not exaggerating, therefore, together with le Vernis, un livre de Coco Chanel,
I just nail them all, to welcome my exciting mind of staying at new home.
