EFFORTLESSLY CHIC IN BLACK AVEC MA CHERI CHANEL

Happy Tuesday dear friends,

 how are you?

Hope you are doing well and enjoying the warmer weather that is upon us. Thank goodness Spring has finally sprung. Please pardon the pun , but it just seems to suit the moment as it is so wonderful to see flowers in full bloom and green leafy trees. 

Yesterday evening finally there was some free time to take a long awaited peek at the latest Chanel  lipstick collection at the Chanel boutique.  The shades this season are sensational especially for the Rogue Allure line of lips, which are chic and oh so classic. A young bright thing is surely lusting after them as well for soft kissable summer lips.  Take a peek at CHANEL too my dear friends for the latest  lips collection.  Perhaps something may catch your eye, if not perhaps a peek at my chic ensemble du jour avec ma cheri chanel, may fit your fancy.
