Trending: Cannes Film Festival


CLICK IMAGE TO ENLARGE!


Navy and nude were two of the most popular colors trending at the 64th annual Cannes International Film Festival in Cannes, France. Neutral shades have been very popular this spring and I expect them to carry through into the fall. Many of the top magazines are reporting that red will be a big color for fall/winter '11 but I expect to see plenty of deep, navy and midnight blues in the mix as well. I think all four women looked beautiful!

Nail Polish of the Moment: Desert Haze by e.l.f.


It has been quite awhile since I've done a nail polish of the moment post. Because I scored elf's Desert Haze for such a low cost ($1), I had to share this one with you, girls! Desert Haze is a sophisticated, nude/khaki/grey. Against my very fair skin, it looks great. But there are some cons: the smell is very unpleasing and the packaging isn't great (FYI: I really dislike the brand name e.l.f.). The application was tricky and definitely took some patience! It is slow to dry! But if you can deal with a brush applicator that isn't aligned properly and some of the other grievances that I've stated, this is an excellent find! Desert Haze easily looks like it could have been included in a CHANEL, Essie or OPI collection. I definitely recommend picking a bottle up (I found mine at Big Lots). I used OPI's base coat and top coat and haven't experienced any premature chipping. It's a beautiful shade!
