Pretty much every week, I don a new nail color. It’s all in the name of beauty duty, of course. But still, there are some colors that I could happily wear every single day. Chanel Black Pearl is one such color. This launched in the dead of winter with Chanel’s 2011 Spring Collection. It was a fantastic, seasonally apt shade in January when we featured it but I love it even more in the summer heat! My summer style has been a lot of color and a lot of prints, and the metallic edge of Black Pearl complements everything.
I do believe this shade was limited edition, but I still see it hanging around some Chanel counters so fear not if you missed out the first time. Do you have a go-to nail polish? Let us know!
pretty shade…
Black Pearl looks great on you! I still have to pick it up but it is part of the permanent collection so no worries. I will pick it up this fall!
Thanks PP! So glad its permanent. I love it – just one of those shades that I did not feel guilty shelling out $25 for:)
“Black Pearl” looks great on you – I’ll have to take a second look. My “go to’s” are Chanel “Khaki Vert” for fingers and Chanel “Mimosa” for summer toes.
Ava — Ooh…the khaki shades! Those hold a special place in our heart:) Glad to hear Mimosa worked for you too!
Sally Hansen’s Complete Salon Manicure has a similar shade, Black Platinum, that’s incredibly long lasting (with a base and top coat).
Tasha, Thanks for sharing. We love those polishes! I’ll have to check that one out too:)
