The Yves Saint Laurent Cahier de Coloriage

Arts & Crafts

Top buy of the moment on the cultural front is the Yves Saint Laurent Cahier de Coloriage (coloring book) published to coincide with the YSL retrospective exhibit at the Petit Palais (through Aug 29). The booklet—a steal at €10—features 40 original sketches by the designer, which can be colored in any way you choose, along with tiny samples of YSL's own color schemes that can be used as guides.

Buy it on Amazon.fr! (They may not sell it on Amazon.com, but French Amazon will mail it to the States--we checked. Or you can always fly on over to the Petit Palais to pick up a copy in person.)
