Nail Flavor of the Week: Color Club Taboo!

nail flavor of the week

Janey attends a private school where she needs to wear a uniform every day and is not allowed to have polish on her nails.

For a girl surrounded by fingernail polish, this has proven a very difficult task. (Especially because she has two older sisters that paint their nails several times a week!)

One of the highlights of Janey’s weekend is rushing home on Fridays after school to paint her nails.

Today she selected Taboo! by Color Club Lacquer, a deep purple full of pink and gold shimmer.

This also happens to be the shade I’m wearing this week as well. (Although, I must say, my painting skills are much more refined than Janey’s.) (Not to brag or anything. I mean, I do have 31 years of experience over her.)

I also just realized I forgot to show you the color I was wearing last week. If you follow me on Twitter you might have seen this Twitpic showing that I, once again, rocked Chanel Diabolic:

I can’t get enough of it!

What are your favorite nail shades this season?

I received this update from CHANEL News in my inbox this morning and I’m so inspired!

Everything about this collage makes me happy. While I can’t afford to buy those amazing shoes or that gorgeous jewelry, I can certainly paint my nails CHANEL Jade green:

And then I can go about my fantastic day…
