Chanel Summer 2015 Collection Méditerranée: Red Lips Via Rose Paradis, Allegria and Arthur

Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Lip Colour in Arthur, $36

Now that’s what I’m talking about.

Red.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve got nothing but love for sheer lips, but sometimes red really hits the spot. Especially on a Wednesday, ya know? I can’t think of a better day to wear red lips.

These reds are from the new Chanel Summer 2015 Collection and are available now at Chanel counters and online.

A quick break-break-down…

Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Lip Colour in Arthur ($36) — A re-promote in the permanent line, Arthur is a warm, full-coverage, slightly orangey red with a creamy finish that feels a little thick on my lips, but it’s still very comfortable, smooove, non-streaky and pretty moisturizing. It also has Chanel’s lovely light rose flavor and scent.

Chanel Levres Scintillantes Glossimer in Rose Paradis ($30) — Also a re-promote from the permanent line, Rose Paradis is a rosy pink with subtle shimmer and a medium-weight, non-sticky formula with coverage just shy of full. And yup, that signature light rose flavor and scent.

Chanel Levres Scintillantes Glossimer in Allegria ($30) — Limited edition Allegria is a warm, intense full-coverage creamy red with the same Glossimer texture/flavor/scent as Rose Paradis.

Chanel. Summer. Ah…

Speaking of summer and good things, your nephew and I just had a wonderful dinner outside on the deck. I nibbled on a zucchini noodle dish with lemon pepper shrimp (SO easy to make! Let me know if you want the recipe.) and sipped a yummy white wine (TJ’s Santa Barbara Landing 2013 Riesling. $4.99! So good!) while his tabby royal highness tried to jump up on the table.

Now I’m back inside, but he’s still out on patrol in the Tabby Command Center.

Whatever you’re up to, I hope you’re having a nice night.
