Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish is a golden, sparkling top coat from Chanel’s Holiday 2015 beauty collection, Vamp Attitude. The Holiday 2015 beauty collection, Vamp Attitude, includes Vamp, Rose Fusion, and Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir.

Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish by Chanel is a clear, deep red nail polish with golden flecks. The clear coat offers a deep red tinge which compliments Vamp when applied as a top coat. The golden sparkles lay flat, so they offer a smooth top coat; unlike many sparkling top coats which leave a rough surface.

I tested out Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish with one  base coat, two coats of Vamp, and one coat of Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir. The nail polish is strong, and takes the place of a regular top coat. My nails lasted a full week! I changed the color due to nail growth, not chipping. Love that!

Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish will be a festive addition to any dark nail polish color this holiday season. Although it looks fabulous on Vamp, I want to try it on a black polish, dark purple polish, and over a silver polish. I think the results will be fabulous! I will be posting swatches later this month, so stay tuned!

The Vamp Attitude beauty collection for the holiday 2015 season by Chanel is nothing short of fabulous. I love all three polishes! Rose Fusion is an edgy yet classic neutral which can be worn during any season. Vamp is, of course, a legendary classic nail polish hue, and Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir is a fabulous holiday top coat which can be used every holiday season; or anytime during the year you want to be playful, and sparkle!

I highly recommend all three nail polishes for your collection. I am thrilled with all three! Chanel Vamp was already in my collection from last year, so adding Rose Fusion and Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir was easy. I love these colors!!!

Chanel Rose Fusion nail polish holidays 2015 review

Chanel Rose Fusion nail polish is a fabulous new color from Chanel’s holiday 2015 beauty collection, Vamp Attitude. The “Vamp Attitude” collection features three nail polish hues for the holiday 2015 season; Rose Fusion, Vamp, and Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir Gold Sparkle. (Look for my review next week!)

Rose Fusion is a beautiful cool, dark beige hue with sparkling undertones. The sparkles appear tonal in daylight, and natural light. In artificial light, the sparkles in Chanel Rose Fusion nail polish catch the light in a rainbow of colors. It is quite remarkable. I wish I was able to catch it in a photograph!

I am in love with Chanel Rose Fusion nail polish for the holiday 2015 season. It is a fabulous alternative to red, and it is a neutral, which makes it easy to wear with any color palette. Love that!

I tested out Chanel Rose Fusion nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and one top coat. The nail polish was extremely sturdy and took eight days to chip! I have to give a lot of credit to this fabulous top coat. My review can be found here.

After several seasons of bright colors, and dark, vampy tones, Rose Fusion is a nice break from the recently popular nail polish tones. Although it is a neutral hue, it is not your average, basic neutral. The beige has an edgy look due to it’s cold undertones, and sparkles! Who doesn’t love sparkles?

I am looking forward to wearing Chanel Rose Fusion nail polish for the holiday 2015 season, and beyond! It is a great addition to any nail polish wardrobe; and can easily be worn throughout the year. Seasonless nail polish is always a winner!

Nicole Miller sent her spring/summer 2016 collection down the New York Fashion Week runway on September 11, 2015. The collection was playful, edgy, and street art inspired. Loved it!

To compliment Nicole Miller’s spring 2016 runway collection’s edgy vibe, butter LONDON’s lead manicurist, Katie Jane Hughes, created a cutting-edge nail art design which worked perfectly; both complimenting and completing the collection.  According to Katie Jane Hughes, “I created this bold nail look to play off of the street art inspired clothing in the collection. Black nails and edgy details are going to be a trend for spring. Spring beauty this season isn’t about playing by the rules.”

The result was amazing. The nails offered a graphic, splatter-effect with a pop of color which mimicked bold street art and graffiti found throughout Nicole Miller’s spring 2016 collection.

Since this nail look was so fabulous, Katie Jane Hughes and butter LONDON have shared with us the backstage secret to re-creating Nicole Miller’s spring 2016 runway nail look at home! Here are the amazing tips, using nail polish from butter LONDON:

Designer: Nicole Miller

Lead Manicurist: Katie Jane Hughes

The Scoop: The graphic, splatter-effect nail art featured a pop of color that mimics the bold street art and graffiti patterns found throughout the collection.

The Design – here’s how Katie created the look:

  1. Apply two coats Nail Lacquer in Cotton Buds.
  2. Dip a bobby pin into Nail Lacquer in Union Jack Black. Position the bobby pin over the nail and blow through the middle to create a splatter effect on each nail.
  3. With a new bobby pin, repeat the process with Nail Lacquer in Easy Peasy (NEW – launching in April ‘16) on various nails on both hands.
  4. Lastly, apply one coat of Hardwear P.D. Quick Topcoat to create a high-shine finish.

How fabulous is that! To shop everything you need to re-create butter LONDON’s nail art look on the Nicole Miller spring/summer 2016 runway, please scroll through the photos below and click on a photo for more information.
