Oh Elegant. How awful for you and your family to go through that. I'm glad he's ok.

Lord that sounds gut-wrenching.
I"m sending you big hugs, and a glass of good wine.

Really, I'm sorry for such a horrible day. I'm just glad he's ok though.

I'm glad you posted about it here, and that it can be a place for support for you.

You guys mean so much - thanks for being there. Doing better tonight.

Yep, wine for sure tonight & hopefully a good movie to relax me.

I was thinking that the swatches of clarins Lilac pink ls were a little bit different for me - not quite as light pale lilac pink as I was hoping, but the color is still really pretty.

Oh, pfft...my armani order - delayed by fedex they say because of the weather in TX - what the heck - still??? When I called the 800 number the automated said it was still scheduled for delivery today, by late in the day I figured something was wrong so I called again & they said no delivery until Tuesday

I didn't know that fedex doesn't work on mondays????

Hopefully it will grow out fast for you. Do you let him know that you weren't happy with it?

Hey, did you see the Joyeuse lipstick pic yet? Its SOOO beautiful!

No, I didn't see the pic yet, but it sounds just lovely!! Did you post the pic?

My hair actually isn't bad - it's a good cut, it's just that he whacked the back of it off after I've been growing it for 6 months. And the color is ok - I actually got compliments today at the mall......so I guess he's got a reprieve. He's quite aware that I was miffed - knowing him he'll not charge me for my next visit (he's the salon owner). I came home and washed/dried it and it looks pretty decent...

Anyway, in other news, I picked up a couple of things today - my 2 Boy lipsticks, Mating Call and Paparraz-she shadows, and the Golden Lariat MSF. I also got Heroine, and was quite surprised at how well I like it on - Marajode, I see what you mean! It's quite a complex color......

I wish my Flaunting It would get here - I had one, but I must have left it in the hotel when I was in NYC last month - grrrrrr - came home and couldn't find it. So I called the LV Pro store and they still had it - but that was almost 2 weeks ago, so I don't know where the package is (I also backed up Gulabi). I guess it's a good thing they make you sign for it, but without an order or tracking number it's impossible to know where it is. I'll have to call them to find out I guess.

I also got Lovely Rose CL blush - it's kind of pale, but very very pretty. Oh, and my Lilac Rose isn't as lilac-y either - more of just a shimmery rose color - pretty yes, a must-have, maybe not.

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend, and Elegant, I hope the wine and movie are just the ticket to helping you get calm again.....hang in there!

Elegant, I am so sorry to hear about your day! What a roller coaster! Hopefully you can have a nice relaxing evening with your family and get your nerves back in order - I can't even imagine how you must have been feeling!!!

I know I don't normally post here, but I have been lurking so that when I have a little bit of extra cash I can make my first Chanel purchase (I own a couple of glosses, and that's it!) :) I'm sure all of you will have converted me one of these days. lol

1. LOL Elegant!
I just saw that post from Meg!!!!!


2. Meg, I don't want to get creepy on you or anything, but I love you.

3. Shypo, I love that your post was numbered. It certainly lent an air of professionalism. That tickled me, enough that I'm going to flatter you with imitation in this post! :)
I can certainly understand you being so ticked about him cutting off more than you wanted! My hair grows about an inch a decade, so I'm uber sensitive to cutting too much I'm glad you are liking it better now. (and I can't get rid of the wonky spacing during my edit. This is the opposite of your professional-looking post, lol)
4. Jenn, woohoo!

glad to see you here!


5. Elegant, I can't wait to hear about the Armani eyeliner!

Elegant, I'm so sorry to hear about what happened. I hope your father gets better soon. (((Hugs))).

Cheryl, the Espiegle/PE combo was Megan's idea and I agree, it sounds great! I will definitely be giving it a try this week! And I can totally relate to your rant about your hair. I use to have a hair dresser that would cut off any growth knowing full well I wanted to grow my hair out.

Miss QQ, if I had to choose between MA and the G Blush, I'd definitely pick the G blush, it is seriously gorgeous!

Winthrop, thanks for the swatches.

Hope everyone's weekend is going well so far. I'll be working for a bit tomorrow (extra time to help pay things down) and then hopefully off to dinner for Valentine's day!

^^ Thanks, I'll bear that in mind. I want MA more for the packaging actually.

Jen - Great to see you here! Chanel is very addictive!

Cheryl - Hope your hair grows out soon! It gets better when you style it the way you want. I don't get it either, why do stylists not listen most of the time? I tell them the length I want and they would go way shorter, or just trim off 1cm!

elegant - what an awful experience for you and your family. Hugs!
