Coming Soon – Chanel Paradoxal and A New Blue
Back in March during the Chanel Fall 2010 runway show we learned that Chanel Global Creative Makeup Director Peter Philips was bringing back Jade Rose from the Jade Collection this Fall.
Jade Rose was kind of lost in the craze over Jade last year so it gets a second chance at stardom. Though thanks to my girl Izzy from Musings of a Muse we see that Jade Rose has some stiff competition in the murky purple-tinged Paradoxal. I know I can’t wait to get my hands on it! |
In other Chanel news, the Cruise 2010-2011 collection made its runway debut this week with the models sporting both Jade Rose and an unnamed baby blue nail polish that will be released sometime in the future. If history tells us anything, I’m thinking we may see this as part of a limited edition collection a la the Paris Shanghai and Paris Moscou collections.

My word, they are PRETTY!
I love love love how Paradoxe looks in the bottle! I’ve seen a swatch somewhere, where it didn’t look as good, but still pretty hot!! Can’t wait to see it either
Could What’s With the Cattitude be a possible dupe for the mystery baby blue?
I’m thinking it might be. It sure would save everyone some $$$
Excited about Paradoxe!
Man, Paradoxe looks so pretty!! I wish I could afford Chanel nail polishes, but for now I’ll just drool over it.
Gorgeous! I can’t wait to see a swatch of paradoxe.
Oooo, considering how devoted I am to my purples, especially Vendetta (wearing it right now topped with OPI Mad as a Hatter), seeing Paradoxe made me squee out loud. I can’t wait to see swatches!
omg. seriously, i have the SAME combo on right now. Vendetta + Mad As A Hatter. Blue Satin + Absolutely Alice is my other fav combo.
Ooh Paradoxe is pretty and I missed out on Jade Rose the first time (I live in UK and it didn’t come here, a wonderful friend got me Jade though!). I have only just collected the Paris-Shanghai and the summer Les Pop-Ups and then I see the next installment! I love my Chanels and my collection is getting very big now!
The Baby Blue is interesting, although I am unsure of whether I can get away with this colour Chanel usually proves to me that I can wear them (Nouvelle Vague, Jade and Particuliere were ones I thought would never work but I love them!)
Thanks for posting!
are you sure that blue isnt just nouvelle vague? looks pretty close to me…. x
oh no i see its much bluer and lighter… two light blues in two seasons? yes please
!
My info came straight from Chanel. It’s not Nouvelle Vague. It’s a new color. They just haven’t named it yet.
I believe its called Riva and will be out Christmas time. I read this in the UK edition of Marie Claire.
Can’t the baby blue polish be Nouvelle Vague?
Could the color Bogie from the new China Glaze Vixen Collection be a dupe for Paradoxe?
Hmmmmm…
I just noticed that in your picture gallery China Glaze Lemon Fizz is labeled as Yellow Fizz.
Pretty!! Can’t wait for Paradoxal.
I also think it is nouvelle vague! I saw a friend wearing it this weekend and it looks just like in the picture.
Paradoxyl looks very much like Zoya’s Ki from the picture. I can’t wait to see this one swatched and maybe even a comparison swatch. I have Ki, so I wonder if I already have a dupe LOL!
The color looks fabulous. Chanel is really taking fashion to new levels.
hmm, that blue looks strikingly similar to my Blueberry Ice Cream by Barry M. I’ll wait until swatches until I buy
some swatches of any kind would be nice
I’m sorry I haven’t had any swatches up but my laptop died and I had to get a new one and have my old data salvaged. Plus I needed a new photo editing program. I’m doing the best I can and am finally able to start putting some swatches up again.
Baby Blue is really popping up this season! I just don’t know if I can get on board.
Ooh, can’t wait to see a swatch of Paradoxe! It might be a more vibrant purple than the disappointing Vendetta (which just looks black on me)
I called my local Chanel to discover that the blue is already sold out! But was able to get 2 bottles of the Gold Lame so hyped about that.
I’m excited about Paradoxal and can’t wait for it! Do you know, if it is going to be offered in Germany?
Any idea how does it compare to Silver Purple 782 from Dior??
I just picked up paradoxal yesterday! I love it! It’s like a cross between Dior silver purple and Chanel Particuliere.
Is Paradoxal different enough from Silver Purple to make it worthwhile to purchase? Thanks!
I would say so. To me they look nothing alike. Silver Purple is well, silvery with a hint of smokiness while Paradoxal is more of a browned grey purple.
Does anyone know when paradoxal comes out? I have to have a bottle!!
Kimberly – Who has it in stock? I got the chanel email but was wondering if (hoping) it was in stores yet??
