Oh wow, that's gorgeous!!! I can't wait to get it either!! I hope this collection launches soon - I have a feeling that Nordies will get it to coincide with their Anniversary Sale in July.......

Miss QQ - I ventured into some of the 'stage makeup' brands such as RCMA (foundation - which I LOVE) and La Femme (blushes and eye shadows are cheap cheap cheap and insanely pigmented) and Rouge Bunny Rouge (eye shadows and lipsticks). Sunday Riley also captured my attention a few months back, and I have collected several of her shadows and blushes - I can't say enough about them.

I guess there's room in my heart for more than just Chanel

Cheryl - The brands you named are interesting, I wish I have access to them.

This collection still doesn't feel real to me as fall seems like a long time away. I need to keep reminding myself to save money for it!

HG - Welcome back!

I'll be 50 next month and I've been gray for the last 20 years! Hope that makes you "youngsters" feel better!
Thank you Ernie!

Shypo, HG, great to see you back

HG, I posted a question on this thread a while back, wondering where you are. Maybe you had a psychic mind

I love the look of Vertigo. Thanks for the link, Naynadine! As of now, I think Chanel np is my weakness

I'm kind of thrown off by the colors right now. I got so tanned just from walking around & running & stuff (I never sunbathed) and the stuff that's usually a no brainer to put on looks strange on me. Especially corals. On the other hand, colors in the orange family looks incredibly fab. But I rarely use orange in Fall/Winter... maybe not so good time to buy new colors now

If you're interested, Rouge Bunny Rouge is available through www.zuneta.com, who ship worldwide. Their service is phenomenal as well.

I've been curious about Sunday Riley, but unfortunately the brand is tricky to get up here. I believe that Barney's ships internationally, but I know a couple of people who have had real horror stories getting orders from them.

Those polishes look amazing! Awaiting for Suspicious swatches, although I know it cannot let me down ...

I only found these

Chanel Fall 2012 Les Essentiels De Chanel Nail Vernis 561 Suspicious, 563 Vertigo Swatches and Review | Fruity Lashes

The Polish Jinx: Chanel Fall 2012 Nail Polish Swatches - Vertigo, Frenzy & Suspicious


For some reason I'm not interested in Suspicious at all. It is a beautiful color, but I guess it's just not my kind of color.

Thanks Naynadine! I have to agree about Suspicious, there is something I don't like about it, or maybe it is because it is somehow a "regular" shade compared with the other two.

Thanks so much for the swatches, I love the 3 of them ( Chanel polishes are very addictive ! ) but I have to think it over : do I need those polishes, well rendez-vous à l'automne !
Frenzy is pretty, Vertigo is really deep and dark and Suspicious may have many dupes I think, although I have to see them in person.

I have a lot of bright pinks and fuchsias too, and thought I will skip Suspicious for sure, but it swatches quite special. I want Frenzy, unsure about Vertigo.

Some promo pics for this collection. There is a colour chart too.

Thanks for the chart Miss QQ - I think. I am in trouble with this collection. My preliminary list is:

Indiscret single e/s
Vertigo, Frenzy np
Caractere l/s
Rose initiale JC
Premier Regard quad

Maybe I can whittle it down if I can see everything in person.
sigh.gif


Hmmm...the quad seems like it may be a pain to work with...I think I will be taking my Winter Nights to the counter with me and comparing them on my skin.
