There's something decidely refreshing about the August cover of British Vogue. Perhaps it's the gold and blue hues which immediately evoke images of the beach, or the sunkissed colour of both skin and hair.
I love Lily Donaldson's caramel coloured locks, loosely curled with honey highlights. I also love her makeup by L'Oreal, it's natural yet modern without being too trend driven. It just looks so easy and unfussy.
What I'm particularly taken with is the colour of her nails. I have a penchant for nabbing the newest colour and was quick off the mark to dip my talons in Chanel's navy nailpolish 'Blue Satin'. My only complaint (apart from the fact it chips too easily) is that it is perhaps a little too dark and closely resembles black. This is a lighter shade of blue and looks really pretty. According to the credits it is 'Resist and Shine UV Nail Varnish' in Meteorite Black. I hope it's available in NZ!
It's hard to even contemplate getting excited about spring or summer while the country is being pelted with gale force winds and rain, but this cover shines like a little beacon of warm weather hope!
