Dior unveils a new color collection for summer with four fun shades for your lips & tips. Check them out below!

Introducing Summer Mix, a charming new color collection that captures the carefree spirit of summer with four infectiously fun shades of new Dior Vernis Nail Gloss and two shades of Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss.

In 1962, Dior was the very first Couture House to launch its own brand name nail lacquer to match its already iconic lipsticks. A Dior slogan from the period captures the popularity of the new product: “Today, the four shimmering letters of Dior have come to the tips of your ten fingers.” In the 1970’s, Dior became a leading brand in terms of color range by launching forty matching nail and lipstick shades. And now, in 2012, Dior celebrates 50 years of nail lacquers that have since become stand alone fashion accessories. Inspired by a couture spirit, the Dior Vernis collection currently features 25 permanent shades, from the classic Red Royalty #999, the favorite color of Christian Dior, to the trendy Gris Montaigne #707, inspired by the Louis XVI-style chairs of the original Dior reception rooms on Avenue Montaigne. In addition, each Dior color collection features limited edition Vernis shades that instantly become the must-have accessory of the season.

Vernis Gloss (Retail $23.00)

A brand new translucent, glossy formula with a “sorbet-like” finish.

  • Cosmo (178)- cheerful watermelon pink
  • Calypso (158)- bright candy apple red
  • Acapulco (118)- tart lemon yellow
  • Lagoon (198)- cool swimming pool blue

Addict Ultra-Gloss (Retail $28.00)

  • Rouge Croisiere (854)- happy red
  • Rose Bikini (664)- perfect pink
  • Gold Sunrise (224)- a gold shade
  • Orange Pareo (542)- an orange shade

The collection will be available this coming June at Dior.com.

Guest post from my friends over at College Candy!

After taking a peak at the incredible spring 2012 RTW collections on Vogue.com, I was inspired by how gorgeous the ensembles came together. Spring trends included a large amount of color blocking as well as certain couture looks that are surprisingly wearable. As high fashion and expensive the real runway looks are, imitating them with affordable pieces under $60 will make you regal-ready for any spring event you’ll attend.

Head over to College Candy to check out these budget-friendly looks!

Not everyone has the fashion budget to stock their summer closet with apparel from Thakoon’s Spring/Summer 2012 collection (we can only dream!), but luckily for us makeup collectors, we can still infuse a bit of the designer’s Bollywood-inspired runway to our everyday looks this season! Thakoon Panichgul’s first-ever collaboration with beauty brand NARS brings us a limited-edition six-piece collection of gorgeously bright nail lacquers. Right on-trend with this season’s festive warm-weather brights, all six shades are inspired by the exotic, high-impact hues found in Indian spice markets. From the fiery orange-red Lal Mirchi to the cyan blue Koliary, each shade retails for $18 a pop and delivers a glossy, long-lasting, chip-resistant wear. While all six shades are gorgeous, my personal favorite is the sunny yellow, Amchoor, which is the perfect in-your-face yellow without verging on blindingly neon! You can find them all online as of May 1st!
