Chanel's Spring 2012 runway show was only a few days ago so now we have a sneak peek at the new spring polishes for next year!

Me too! That's actually the one I think I want the most, now that I look at it! Seems bizarre to be thinking about Spring... We're still having summer weather here in October (although last week was rainy and miserable). I've only recently picked up Graphite and Peridot and now I have to think about Spring?

He's a Tonkinese, actually. It's a breed that originally came from crossing Siamese with Burmese cats. And he's a complete camera diva... Definitely takes after his mum that way.
I'd also just like to say that I think it'll be hard for Chanel to top their Fall selection of polishes. Of course, it's a matter of personal taste, but I really feel like they hit it out of the park with these three. I'm wearing graphite right now and I keep pausing as I type, because I get fascinated by how the light plays on my nails.

I get lots of compliments on graphite including, my hubby. Yes, I have 2 Russian Blue's. In your pic the coloring looks the same to me. I have read that Tonkinese is an amazing breed. I will probably always have a Russian Blue however, I would consider get a Tokinese, too.

^^ Very pretty!
Winthrop - Thanks for the link. She has great comparisons! I want Rose Cache more now. I liked it when I swatched it, and seeing it so different from Jade Rose in her swatch now, I definitely want to get it.
I'm wearing Pirate on my toes. This is my first red np so I'm easing into it because I don't really dare to wear red nails, though I wear red lips every now and then. Pirate is quite a unique red, it is a jelly and at the first coat, it is very pink red. On the second coat, it becomes a true red, but still a jelly. It also looks darker in the bottle, so I wonder if it will turn darker if I apply a third coat.
See how pretty Pirate and Rose Cache are!

Miss QQ, irl does Pirate look darker like in the fourth pic showing 3 fingers with it on, or lighter & brighter like in the comparison to Fire?

^^ Pirate is dark, more like the one with the 3 fingers, but it is not quite so brown. Not sure how many coats she had on though. Like I said earlier, with one coat it is pink red, and with the 2nd it turns a deep red. Maybe with a third one it is even deeper, like how it looks in the bottle. Are you picky with red nps like me?

Yes...I never feel comfortable wearing them except on my toes. But that sounds promising that it's darker and yet not brown. Thanks alot for your help!
