Chanel Bombay & Les Essentiels de Chanel 2012 Fall collections.
Oh my, Chanel is certainly not sitting still and has already announced their fall 2012 collection which is has the theme Bombay as Karl Lagerfeld took his inspiration from India this time. Expect sultry kohl heavy looks and golden details as the models rock the runway in this unique video filmed last December:

And of course with this collection a lovely polish is being released called Diwali named after a holiday which is popularly known as the “festival of lights“. It is a glowing golden nail polish created by Peter Philips, and right now it’s available exclusively at the Chanel boutiques. But hopefully it will have a wider release later this year to a Chanel counter near you.
Alongside this themed collection Chanel is also releasing LES ESSENTIELS DE CHANEL, created by Peter Philips who is Creative Director of Chanel Makeup. The collection was inspired by Coco Chanel’s iconic essentials — the little black dress, the quilted handbag and the two-toned shoe.
With this collection come three shades, a lovely fuchsia called Suspicious, a beige nude color named Frenzy, and a brown called Vertigo which has a beautiful shimmer. I cannot wait to find these in the local shops as it looks like Vertigo is totally a color I would wear and I want to swatch it as soon as I possibly can.
What do you think of these two Chanel collections, do you like what you see?

Diwali … not feeling it. Gold is not really my color and I feel it’s easily dupable. I also think Delight (which I have and which is more rosegold) has a similar finish, so I don’t really need Diwali. Though … I do love the name. Suspicious and Frenzy also seem easily dupable, and I don’t do pinks anyway. Vertigo however! Yum! WANT! :D
Lurique aka @Pepperissa:twitter posted a picture comparing Diwali (I love the name as well, the festival of light just has such a fairytale ring to it doesn’t it?) Quartz, Gold Fingers and Delight which shows the difference beteen all colors and finishes. I at first thought they’d be dupes but I guess not, there are differences.
And yes to Vertigo for sure!!!
I looooove the way Vertigo looks, do you have it yet? If so what does it look like swatched?
