Perhaps Karl Lagerfeld was taking the eco-friendly slogan "Go Green!" literally while designing Chanel's Fall 2009 line-up. The collection included a head-to-toe green tweed look, complete with a minty-fresh polish that was on the nails of every model walking in the show. Like last year's "Blue Satin" shade, this Jade lacquer is already climbing toward cult status - normally priced at $25, it has sold out of every department store and is at the moment only available for resale on eBay for upwards of $75.
