LOL Lou! Pink Rules! But occasionally I sneak in other colours, besides other shades of pink! I also love lavender and sage green and soft grey. Of course pink goes with all of these!!!!

Sold 80.00 of decks. Not enough. Must sell more. Must sell. Must get rid of. I have the selling bug. And last night I watched Coach bag collections and laughed myself silly. Some people have about 50 bags and here I am thinking I am tremendously luxurious with my lovely selection. Well, I love them, but I won't be needing 50, nor 20, nor 15...8 bags tops sounds reasonable, right? Spring/summer bags and fall/winter bags?

Must sell more decks....

Debi, I love all those colours too :) Although sky/crayon blue is my favourite colour of all, and I pretty much avoid it at all costs in my makeup collection. lol!
Woooo, go selling decks!! :) You'll have to tell us which bags you have your eye on so we can ogle at them together! :p

Shaddowaddict, this post is for you! Here's the pic of me with my NMWK:



That's pretty close to the actual colour in natural lighting - maybe a touch more blue and dusty :)

I have mixed feelings about this one. The formula is quite thick in order to suspend the glitter - yes, this one is glittery and even a touch gritty, not shimmery. The purple base is quite sheer - it's almost a jelly colour. It took me three coats to get it to the bottle colour, and it was a bit tricky to apply. I wasn't convinced it would look good until I put on the third coat, and all was well. I still have little pieces of glitter on me, and I found it difficult to get a really smooth coat on. With my Seche Vite on to finish it off, it becomes much smoother. But, the end colour is very pretty - a dusty, blue-based purple with lavender glitter. I think I would like it better on my nails if they were a touch longer, and I think this will make an amazing summer pedi colour :) For now, it's almost a moody, spring crocus purple, great for grey skies and rainy days.

oh wow! it is such a pretty colour! but yes it sounds like a typical glitter polish. to get rid of the gritty feeling you could put seche vite as a top coat on. that is so thick that it covers and gritty feeling :)

Hello, ladies! I have been spending some time away from the computer so I haven't catch up with the boards. Hope everyone is doing fine!

I saw the new Kristen collection from Coach in person and I'm in love! They are beautiful and functional. They come in several colours and there is a blush colour which feels so springy!

I also saw the new collection of silver jewellery from Thomas sabo and I love what they have this spring/summer. I love the Rebel at Heart range as well as the Seasonal range. But I didn't buy anything yet because I'm not sure if they are something I will wear again and again, like Tiffany's for example, whose designs are timeless. Do you ladies wear a piece of jewellery for a few months and then more or less leave it on the shelf after that? Is that worth buying?

Here is the website if you are interested.

jenn - the butter london n/p is gorgeous. I love such colours and it's even better when glittery. Too bad about it being gritty.

Off to catch up with the boards. :)

^^ Take your time to decide and buy something you love. Then you will treasure it endlessly. ;) I have looked at Thomas Sabo a few times. It used to be very popular here until Pandora invaded us and became very popular since last year. Yeah the designs are very rock-n-roll, and I like some of the hippie style as well. I like the pendant you linked above too. The catalogue I picked up today showed the same pendant with pink stones, giving a rock princess feeling. I'm the same, I always go back to the same faithful ones. I do that not only with jewellery but with clothes too, and those I always wear are usually the comfy ones.

I like this wing earring.

And this pendant, which looks like something out of the vampire dramas, though I'm not a fan of vampire shows.

This has been a bummer of a day! No one is buying decks. I haven't sold anything in like 24 hours even though there are three boxes up for sale at excellent prices and all OOP decks. People are looking for insane deals that just are not going to happen, so until I get more sold, the Coach bags are on hold. I'm still expecting 250.00 in MO's to get out two more packages. 5 should reach their destinations tomorrow. In the meantime I feel like a black cloud is hanging over my selling spurts and I am getting mad! I want this done with and over. These people on that forum whine all year long about not having these decks and when you offer it to them at a steal they still don't get it. Then they get mad when I take them off the market because they kept hoping I would go down in price. Maybe I should be doing ebay. Then I can watch them go up in price instead. Grrrrr......

Debi--love the way you did your liner. Hopefully people will start buying again and not expect you to practically give them away.

Thanks for the name of that medicine. I'll have to see if I can find it. And yeh we do have interesting topics here from cosmetics to vomit and back without blinking our lovely made-up eyes.

Jenn--thanks for the pics. That's really pretty but not sure if I want to work with it so much with it being gritty. I still cannot find my AHTQ and if I don't find it soon I will have to buy another bottle. I love that if I need to have a more neutral color it works well but yet I can still have the pretty shimmer. I get lots of compliments when I wear it.

Lou--when I clicked on that link that is the necklace that first caught my eye. I love the heart and wings. Glad your kitties are feeling better.

MissQQ--I love most the stuff on that site. I'm probably too old for it but I still like it. I still wear my Betsey Johnson stuff. I love a lot of her wacky items. I go in spells with all my stuff. I'll wear my Tiffany charms for a bit and then move on to something else. It really depends on what mood I'm in and that's why my items vary so much in style from classic to funky. But I have quite a bit that just hangs or sits in my jewelry chest.

And now for my rant of the day. I am just absolutely livid that ABC for one is not pressing charges against Chris Brown after his tantrum on Good Morning America and two that they are still going to have him perform on DWTS next week. He stomped off set and down a hall then threw a cooler and busted out a window and then not long after was all smiles and acting like nothing happened. HELLO??? ABC this is typical abuser behavior.

I know that I am super sensitive to this type of thing because of being abused myself but seriously? What kind of message does this send to kids---that it's ok for guys to act like this and there be no consequences and girls there's no need to get the authorities involved it's just boys being boys. Oh and lets reward him and go ahead and have him perform on one of our top shows.

He really set me off when he said (referring to beating up Rihanna) that he was over that and it was in the past, he just wanted to focus on his album now. What the f*ck does he have to get over? How about all that she has had to deal with? She was beat up by someone she trusted and loved. She was humiliated and embarrassed in public with her face bruised and swollen on tv. magazines, and newspaprers everywhere. She also had to try to heal emotionally and physically while the whole world was watching. Really ABC wtf????

Debi i love your Liz Taylor look! you have done her proud!

And i don't knwo much about this Chris Brown guy other than he hurt Rihanna
thmbdn.gif
Sounds like a massive douche bag to me! Luckily i don't think he is that popular in the uk so we don't hear much about him!

You know we should all start branching out here! We have an entire chatter section to chat in but we all come here just to talk! Maybe if we chat in other threads in the chatter section even more people will join in our conversations! I'll make some threads where we can chat about our day and stuff for us! It will give us more variety! I love the bimbo thread but maybe i am all bimbo'd out?!

Ooh, I will look for the other thread, but hopefully this will not be the breaking of the Bimbos! That would be like the Beatles or the Bangles breaking up. Maybe this should be about all things shiny and glittery? Which is basically everything in my life! lol Okay.......I am not THAT bad!

I did have fun with my Elizabeth Taylor look.I have found if I am not too tired that playing with wild makeup looks is a great thing to do before you take your MU off for the day! I am actually thinking of starting up a blog, once I find the perfect title for it, on MU. I have a few ideas that I think might add to the Beauty community, especially for women in MU ruts, or older, etc. like I was.

One person finally bought a box last night and right now someone is looking at another. I have about 300.00 coming in right now so that makes me feel better. I will try to put more up today and keep the wheels turning. I also need to do my nails and try to find time to stuff some haul pics up. Busy, busy me!

yay!! i am happy that you have quite a bit coming in and that somebody bought a box! oh and i ned to do my nails when i get home. currently they are naked! but i think i shall wear china glaze orange marmalade - a stunning orange jelly with gold shimmers. perfect for the sunny weather we have been having!

oh and the bimbos won't break up! i just want others to join in chats. maybe some people feel like they can't join in here because they aren't part of the 'club'. which of course is not the case!

Debi - love your liz taylor look too. Have fun exploring! I experiment different ways to draw my eyeliner but I have inner double eyelids and heavy lids so I find it hard to make my eyeliner show up unless I draw a thick line. But this can look too much sometimes.

shadow - I don't know much about Chris Brown too other than what he did to Rihanna. It's bad that they are still letting him perform. Yeah we are never too old for a bit of funky and wacky wardrobe choices! I like the style of Betsey Johnson too. I try not to buy jewellery that I'll only wear a while because then I don't know what to do with them. Your Tiffany charms must be very cute, and they are intricate and timeless.

lou - congrats on being a veteran mod!
