Christian Louboutin Spring 2015 nail polish set: review of Hot Chick

Pictured: Christian Louboutin Spring 2015 nail polish set. Review of Hot Chick nail polish; one of three nail polish hues from the spring 2015 nail polish set by Christian Louboutin.

Christian Louboutin introduced a set of three nail polish mini’s for the spring 2015 season named “Python Vulcano.” The limited edition nail polish coffret offers mini nail polish bottles in yellow, “Hot Chick,” blue “True Blue,” and cream “Salonu.” All three colors are right on trend for the spring 2015 season, and reflect colors from Christian Louboutin’s current shoe collection. Love that!

I was excited to receive the coffret and discover the three mini nail polish bottles inside the box. It is definitely a fabulous way to present, and store, nail polish! I also love the mini size of the nail polish bottles. As someone who never finishes a nail polish bottle, I love the idea of a smaller bottle.

I decided to test out “Hot Chick” first. It is a beautiful, yellow cream nail polish which is not too bright, or too soft; it is just right! I used one base coat and two coats of color. Christian Louboutin Hot Chick nail polish lasted five days before chipping. As with any cream nail polish, it needs to be thickly applied. If you use thin coats, you will need three coats of color to avoid looking streaky. 

One test I have with nail polish is if perfect strangers compliment me when I am out in public. Hot Chick by Christian Louboutin received multiple compliments from strangers when I was at the gym, and out running errands. Love that!

I am looking forward to testing out the other two colors from Chrisitan Louboutin’s Python Volcano nail polish coffret for spring 2015. Stay tuned for my reviews!

When I was in New York for fashion week, I took a break from the shows in order to visit Kendra Scott’s showroom in the Garment District. As a fan of her jewelry, I found myself walking into jewelry heaven! The showroom featured Kendra Scott’s classic collection, the Spring 2015 “Avant Garden” collection, her summer 2015 “Via Maya” collection, and a peek her fall 2015 collection, which is in progress. 

Kendra Scott’s spring 2015 collection, “Avant Garden” is a beautiful and dreamy collection filled with pastel agate, opal, quartz, and drusy. The stones are set in gold, silver, and rose gold settings. There were edgy styles like crawler earrings, bold statement earrings such as the “Kaki Earrings,” and seasonal takes on her classic collection. I have fallen in love with the “Susanna Bracelets,” and every necklace in the collection. I cannot wait to collect a few pieces!

For summer 2015, Kendra Scott took her inspiration from the mystifying jungles of The City of Dawn, Tulum, Mexico, and the Mayan culture. The collection has taken a bold turn away from her classic collection, yet successfully captured the appeal which has placed her on the fashion map. Although the designs are new and exciting, the summer 2015 “Via Maya” collection stays true to the brand; you will be impressed!

Due in stores April 15, 2015, Kendra Scott’s “Via Maya” collection for summer 2015 offers bright colors, triangular tiering, and a vibe which will transport you to an exotic beach location in Mexico. Not only do I have many of the summer 2015 pieces on my wish list, I am suddenly craving a vacation to Mexico!

Here are a few pictures of the summer 2015 “Via Maya” collection due in stores April, 2015.
