For many, including us, Chanel nail polish is probably the only thing we can afford from the high-end brand. That’s why their newest nail polish colors are always on our radar. Chanel’s fall 2010 must-have color is Paradoxal, a gray-violet color that will probably be everywhere for fall. Unfortunately, Paradoxal isn’t available until August, but get a jump on the trend with these three affordable alternatives:
This Charlotte Russe Goddess CR Nail Polish ($3.50) looks like a blend of blue and purple. This color will look great with your favorite black dress.
Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Nail Polish in Plum Luck ($7.99) is a rich, opaque shade that will make you look like you got a professional manicure.
Essie’s Sexy Divide ($8) is a bold purple color that has a hint of shimmer. Wear it for night, or to spruce up your work outfit.
