As I spent yesterday reading InStyle and Marie Claire I was overly intrigued by a Chanel lipstick ad. I have always had a slight obsession with the story of Coco Chanel and I could not quit looking at this add. The ad did it's job perfectly! It sold the lipstick to me instantly. My eyes kept going right back to the lips and the color on them. Now it escapes me which magazine I read about the lipstick in but one of them had a write up about it. This shade from Chanel is named 'Boy'. It was named after the love of Coco Chanel's life, Captain Arthur Edward 'Boy' Capel. With already having an obsession with Coco's story I had to have this lipstick.
I went to Nordstrom today and told the lady "I need the lipstick in the ad!" She hadn't seen the ads yet but knew instantly I was talking about 'Boy'. She told me that the shade had launched only in a few larger stores to start with and no one else was allowed to launch it until April 6th. She said they have had it for a while but if anyone put it out or sold it they would lose their job. Basically, this lipstick is a big deal! So I obviously left Nordstrom owning 'Boy'.
I could not wait to get in the door earlier and try this lipstick on. I can not quit rubbing my lips together. It feels so great on! The color is perfect for all skin tones and colors! And added bonus: It looks great with this years hot color...coral! Sweep some coral shadow across your lids, mascara to lengthen your lash line and make your eyes pop even more, and rub 'Boy' all over your lips! You've got a look that is great for everyday and with a few minor adjustments can be taken from day to night in minutes!
Until next time!
