Chic After Dark: A Street-Style Lover’s Look At Parisian Fashion

As you know — and if you don't, you really should — we've challenged you to build a beautiful Pinterest board of Parisian-chic pics, the best of which will win its creator a $5,000 dream trip to Paris. All you have to do is enter, pin a couple of photos from Estée Lauder's "Nails: Chic After Dark" board, and hunt down some fabulous fashion images. Though that sounds simple, it's actually a pretty tall order. See, to craft a collection of pins that catches our eye, you're going to have to strike out in an unusual, original direction, like Ms. Elise Yetton did when we tasked her to offer up a selection of photos that would inspire all you aspiring winners. Naturally, we expected Yetton — the media director for the denim line, imogene + willie, the beautiful blogger behind Pennyweight, and an avid pinner — to offer us some lovely images. But what we got was a glimpse into perfect Parisian street style, gorgeous nail art, and a lot of unexpected takes on French fashion — something to think about when you cook up your own board.
