Yes, we go on and on - it's time for yet another
Collaboration Saturday together with my friend Elena from PicturedTinsel!
Chanel Violette 73 is from
2001. It is a very pale and muted
rosy-violet with a pearlescent finish prone to brush strokes. It’s not at all
my color, but I’m so pleased to have it anyhow. It was a pleasant surprise that
two coats were enough.
As I said: it's not a favorite of mine, but I'm happy to have it in my collection!
Now let's see if
Elena has something prettier for us, I'm sure she has...!
Take a look at my hundreds of indies
here: Indies & Co.
So many of these older, but not really old, Chanel polishes remind me of my grandmother's nightgowns. I guess that pearly finish is to blame.
SvarSletI know you are a collector and that you are probably on a good way to own every Chanel polish ever made so I have no doubt you enjoy this one as much as any other that is more to your taste.
Oh, I wish I were even remotely close to woning them all, but I only have a fraction :D
SletThis color is not so pretty ;D but we need it to our Chanel colection, right? :))))
SvarSletYes, you are perfectly right - spoken like a true fellow collector :D
SletQuite a pleasant colour but a bit on the pale side.
SvarSletIt is, but well, we cannot love them all ;)
SletIndeed :))
SletI think this very a very elegant and precious colour, the problem is to wear it with elegance of course! I like it on you Maria,
SvarSletkisses :*
Thanks a lot :D - I'm probably not too elegant ;)
SletI don't think so :-P
SletHahaha thanks, I maybe used to be, when I was younger, now I'm more "practical" :P
SletIt's okay but nothing special. At least it's part of your collection and you've worn it! :-)
SvarSletYep, you are so right :)
SletNot my cup of tea but cute indeed! And it's very old too!!
SvarSletYes, it's fairly old, and nice for my collection!
SletI understand you appreciate it as a collector. But yes, it's... a little bit boring :D
SvarSletYes, nice for the collection, otherwise not so much ;)
SletI am not sure how to think about this color. In one way I like it a lot. But on the other hand I think it would not look that good on me.
SvarSletLOL - it is a demanding one, I also think so :)
SletNot my colour either but you have to say that it looks nice over your nails anyway :)
SvarSletI'm happy you think so, I don't feel convinced LOL
