Coming Soon – The All Lacquered Up Collection from Barielle
Exciting news fanatics! I’ve been dying to share this beyond thrilling development with all of you. For the past I don’t know how many months, I’ve had the good fortune to collaborate with top Celebrity Manicurist, Barielle Spokesperson and Shades by Barielle Creative Director, Elle, to create their fall and winter collections!! Can you even? Seriously, it’s like a dream come true. Believe me, if you had told me that someday I’d be dreaming up polish colors for a major brand like Barielle, I would have slapped you silly.
After spending a week backstage at New York Fashion Week and talking trends with Elle, we came up with 12 amazing straight-from-the-runway shades that will blow your mind. We just finalized the names last week and I’m hoping to have the finished polishes to show you soon. I’ve seen samples and let me tell you, they’re GORG.
Now you know because it’s named after ALU that there’s a green, right? And if I said gray, would that surprise you? Well, you haven’t seen a gray like this. And if I told you I named a color Falling Star could you imagine what that might look like? I wish I could spill more but I’ll let you salivate on that for now. More deets to come soon. I promise!

Thats so amazing. I dont even know how you kept it under wraps for so long, I would have been bursting at the seams. LoL. Cant wait to see what you guys have come up with!
!!!! I’m so excited for you! After stumbling across your blog a few months ago, you quickly turned my nail polish interest into obsession…. Can’t wait to see the fabulous colors you created!
I’m pretty sure yours will be the best collection out there! I’m so happy for you. Your blog is my favorite, by far, and it keeps getting better and better as time goes by. I’m dying to see the new colors! Will there be a discount code for ALU readers (hint, hint!)? When do they come out?
I’m so excited to see what colors you’ve come up with. You have wonderful taste, and I’m only sorry I don’t yet know of any stores near me that carry Shades by Barielle.
pardon my french but i am so fucking exciteeeddddddddddddddd!!!!!!!!!!
Wow this will be bad for my budget… I can’t imagine not wanting all the shades with your taste at the helm of creating them!
Will you please cover the new Chanel shades that came out last week? Thank you and congratulations!
Ooh, sorry for the double post, but speaking of Chanel, I wonder with your straight-from-the-runway tease if the collection will include that gorgeous mint green we saw on the Chanel runways!
Thanks everyone! Your support means so much. I really hope you love the colors.
KimmyDarling – I don’t know what their deal is with CVS but it may have just been to carry last years collections and not the whole line.
Jennifer A- What Chanel’s are you referring to? I’ve reviewed the only ones I know about, Orange Fizz, Golden Sand, Cosmic Violine and Mica Rose.
Oh you mean those Tokyo colors? I don’t have details on them yet
TEASE!! (LOL) Can’t wait to see them..now, if I could only find barielle anywhere
Oh, congratulations! That’s HUGE – and well-deserved. I can’t wait to see them, and I’m sure you’ll be directly responsible for yet another big ol’ dent in my wallet.
Michelle, that is amazing! I have been reading your blog since you started it, and am so excited that you get to do something like this now!! You deserve it
Wow. Now if we could just get some of "our people" on the inside at OPI, China Glaze, etc.
Can't WAIT to see what you have cooked up for us.
Congrats! That is so awesome! I can't wait to see the colors! Hurry up and show us already!
Congratulations
I’m really excited to see the new shades. I only own one Barielle color.
Michelle! That is so exciting. Congratulations. I cannot wait to see it all.
Michelle, this is amazing news! No one deserves to be immortalized in the polish world more than you do! It’s a polish lover’s dream!!! Congratulations!
A-MA-ZING! Congratulations!!!!! I’m so happy for you and can’t wait to see it.

Congratulations! This is an honour, and you will have a million hits on your blog when the swatches are posted…we will be glued to our computers!
You go girl!!! Where would you recommend buying Barielle on-line?
I’d love to see a “behind-the-scenes” post on how they approached you, how the collaboration unfolded, and your specific inputs for the line. I also have my fingers crossed that this might turn into a lucrative career move for you. You’re a professional consultant, now!
Congrats
That are wonderful news, I´m excited!
But could you do something for your international readers? I know Barielle has an UK based website, but they don´t stock the nail polish shades *sigh*
Will there be a way to get my hands on it, even when living in Europe?
Wow!! Congratulations first of all!! Secondly, I can’t wait!!!!!!
Wow, that is amazing! Congratulations!
