fitting to this heat wave, i am showing ysl vandal orange from the last spring's the street and i collection: "inspired by the graffiti art that colors the cities of the world, yves
saint laurent introduces the limited edition “the street and i” spring
collection. the contrasting colors of the city come to life as a
limited edition accessory: an orange inspired by street art; and an
urbane take on asphalt grey, a shade that’s all around us but rarely as
beautifully expressed as this. perfectly representing the tensions of
the street, pair them, one shade on both fingers and toes, or mix and
match: you’re the artist here."
my obsession with ysl is well known, so where a normal person would ask a question: "do i really need another orange creme?", for me it was a matter of "snatch it while it's still available. and orange is such a versatile shade for people that wear monochromatic clothes.
vandal orange is awesome: combination of a clear orange and a perfect formula. definitely hot weather must-have.
i used base (china glaze strong adhesion) + two layers of polish + top coat (essence btgnts).
