Elegant -- that dress is so adorable! And Marilyn doesn't have anything on you!!

Armani got my money this week. Chanel will have to wait until the next budget allocation...

Elegant- that dress is gorgeous! Hmmm the swatches pic on purseblog looks piled on and super mousse-y? Hehe I'm making up words here. I'm thinking i may wait till I see them at the counters :( I wonder if they are builable...

Its sooo cute on & we bought them much cheaper in the store.

I agree - I am in love with the blush.
YES to standing over the AC unit. Your hubs will always want the AC running

I read on Karla's site that the new JC will replace Rose Dust. I wonder how close they are? Rose Dust is very similar to MAC Blushbaby. I guess I can always use another nude pink blush!

^ Me too!

On Karla's site it says the new eyeshadows are a "silicon-gel" formula? Isn't that similar to the formula for the Spring quint?

I found the shadows in the quint a little bit hard to work with, but they're so stunning it's always worth it in the end, so if these are going to be similar, I'm definitely going to pick up a bunch!

The summer stuff only came out here yesterday, but I might give that a skip and wait for these!

What are you liking from this collection - curious???
I want to try the shadows. I hope they're not all shimmery like the ETK's. Love them... but a swatch of COLOR without the shimmer would be nice. They did it with black one... so I know it can be done.

I really like the darker colors in the cream shadows. I'd like the eyeshadow quad, the blush, the eye pencil, the darker ultrawear lip color, and the glossimer in Giggle.

See why I have to budget? DOINGTOOMUCH.COM!

Helloooo ladies! Ugh, another crappy work week, but at the very least, I moved to a different desk where I am far away from a rather mean individual and I don't have to deal with her crap any more and don't have to walk on egg shells so she doesn't go into one of her nutty episodes. I'm only the fourth person that's requested to move, and I had a great desk by the window...

Oh well... with that off my chest! Peridot looks so darn pretty in the bottle, I may just have to get that and Quartz. A nude rose blush sounds great, if it is a pinker blushbaby, it's mine. Blushbaby always went orange on me. If the gel shadows are sheer, that's an easy pass for me and the only other thing I wanted was the matte RA.

Elegant, that dress is so pretty! I'm sure you look super gorgeous in them! I love JCrew, I have three items sitting in my cart atm, but waiting to see if any of them go on sale.

I think MissQQ had asked about the LeBlanc collection (Asia exclusive, which is now available in North America, lol!). I purchased Joyeuse RA, Rose Turbillon (sp?) JC and.. and... I also did get the quad, Rose Envolee! Wasn't going to, really don't have the funds to spare atm, but the colour combination is one of the prettiest of their quads imo. I love pinks, and I love dark eggplanty colours and I love Chanel! Only thing is, I cannot bring myself to use any of it right now. It's just so summery here, and I've been sporting the same, hardcore summer look lately!!! Bronze-y eyes with the GA summer eyes quad, with my upper lid lined with MAC's high noon liner (teal), Bronze Corail on the cheeks and a light peachy pink l/s.

Sorry your week was another bad one.

That's exactly how I feel about this fall make-up right now...can't really think about it yet. Your current look sounds beautiful!

Do you think Rose tourbillon will look very different than Pink explosion on?

I only ordered Rose Ecrin and the quad for now. :) It all looks sooo Fall!! I can't really deal with that thought right now, lol.

I was wondering, why is it make up collections are launched so early in the US? Chanel's Spring collection went on sale in January and the Fall collection is already being sold in some places. Summer hasn't even began!

I was so happy to see you here my dear!

That is so great that you have a nice/better working area - & away from the crazy lady. That is always a good thing.

Oooh, you picked up that Asia collection - I love it and can't wait to get the other pieces!!!

Your look sounda beautiful & perfect for summer. I think we're all hoping for a a really pretty Rose Ecrin blush.

Oh I love JCrew! There sale racks are amazing. We bought the dresses on sale for a really great price. They are so pretty on. Thanks!

When 4 different people have to move because of 1 person I'd say it might be time for the 1 person to move -- out the door.

For some reason, I cannot quote!

Thanks for the hugs ladies!

Winthrop, I do think the JC will be different than PE. I am going to give it a try tomorrow to let you know for sure. It seems to be less of a yellow pink and more of a raspberry-ish pink, it's awfully pretty!

And ya, management is aware of the problem and have in the past have tried to do something about it, but she only caused them grief as well as a result. You would think after that many people switching desks, a person would maybe start to realize that they are the problem! But no. It's actually quite comical, because this time around, it was two of us at once that said enough and asked to be moved away from crazy lady!

Nora -- bummer you have to deal with some of those issues at work! Hopefully your new desk will be quieter! Keep us posted on how you like your LeBlanc collection. I only got Joyeuse from that collection -- and I love it.
Looking at all of the fall and holiday Chanel on Karla's site . . . I hope that Enivree RA from the Holiday collex (shimmering pink) is as pretty as I want it to be! But I am still having so much fun with my summer makeup . . .

Does anyone have links to some swatches of the cream shadows? I saw the one posted here earlier, but I would like to see them sheered out a bit. TY!
