Get set to pounce – the nail varnish of the season hits stores on Friday 13th August. Perfectly manicured claws will be out to grab the new Autumn/Winter 2010 must-have shade by Chanel – Paradoxal.

We’ve seen a fashionista frenzy before with Chanel’s hot nail polishes. In AW 2009 it was Particulière that flew off the shelves, then along came the gorgeous minty green Jade Rose which we’re still loving now. We’re sure that Pardoxal will cause the same buzz.

Aptly for autumn, Paradoxal is a kind of aubergine shade. It’s purple with grey tones which are hot shades for the new season. Paradoxal coloured nails will look fabulous holding on to this season’s must-have ladylike bags.

No fashionista should be without it. Hurry to House of Fraser or Boots and get your hands on Paradoxal this Friday!
