Way over here in San Francisco, we’re jealous that we can’t attend Fashion’s Night Out in person, but that’s not why we have the blues! For those of you beauty trend-spotters who wait with baited breath for the latest nail polish collection from the chicest lacquer guru around, Chanel, look no further than Fashion’s Night Out special branded offerings. In honor of the ultra-fabulous occasion, Chanel has launched a trio of sophisticated polishes, collectively named Les Jeans de Chanel. Yup, you guessed it – these lacquers attempt to channel a classy, modern way to incorporate cool blue tones into your beauty look and at the same time seek to be as easy to wear as your favorite pair of blue jeans… that is, if you can get your hands on them in the first place! Put yourself on the wait list and pray that you’ll eventually be a lucky owner of the special-edition Blue Rebel (navy), Coco Blue (powdery sky blue), or Blue Boy (a steely slate blue). Unless of course, you don’t think these matte blue shades are fabulous enough to wait for!

As any style-watcher knows, nude is the must-have shade for everything from heels, booties, lip gloss, nails, and beyond. However, despite its timeless popularity, the perfect nude nail lacquer can also be a pretty tricky hue to get one’s hands on; after all, it’s relative to your specific skin tone. But what if choosing your shade was as straight-forward as selecting the correct shade of foundation? Eco-friendly nail artist to the stars, Jenna Hipp, along with her team at Nailing Hollywood LLC, has already has had her work featured in various magazines and on countless celebrity cover girls, but her recent collaboration with green enamel line RGB (and founder Gina Carney) takes trendy, eco-conscious manicures to the next level. With their recent Nail Foundation collection, the power duo seeks to help beauty mavens get that perfect nude shade just for you, no matter what your race – for graceful, elongated fingertips. In-the-spotlight stars Keira Knightly, Michelle Williams and Lea Michele, among others, have already rocked their own specialized ‘nude’ shades in the public sphere – are you curious enough to join them?
