:haha:   I think its a lovely color for you. So which one is next :amused: :cheer: I think it just may become one of my all time favorite lipstick colors. Funny, I was wearing a T-shirt almost the exact same color.

Oh, no! Don't ask what's next! :lol: Ok, maybe Enjouee.

Are there special exclusive shades for like Nordies & Saks? I missed that if it was mentioned.

I don't think so. I didn't see any shades at Saks that I didn't see in Bloomingdales. Oddly enough, though Nordstroms still didn't have these new shades.

Beautiful pictures Elegant! Hmmm, looks like I should have ordered the pink coral one, too My package is supposed to get here Friday . . . fingers crossed.

Just got back from the mall. I bought Secrete.

So pretty. On my pigmented lips it's like a muted rosy pink. It looks almost the same on me as Mac's Mehr (which I love), but obviously, this texture is so much better. It's an everyday color w/o being boring.

I'm glad I got Secrete. Hopefully its not too close to Seduisante on me. Super excited for Extatique

I'm wearing Pirate now. Its not as deep of a red on like I thought it would be. A bit more on the very slight pink/bright side. Its a classic red though. It reminds me of a Gwen Stefani red.

Aaahh Palpitante is so pretty on that swatch! It makes it so much harder for me to wait!! lol

I think something is wrong with the shipping between Chanel & Nordies because the last few items I have bought, I had to go to different stores because Nordies was out of stock and waiting on Chanel shipments. They did have the new RAs testers but they don't have them to buy, so I don't know what's going on. My SA has lost money from me because I've had to purchase else where.

 

[shontay07108]

I prefer to buy from Nordstroms, but since they didn't have them I had to go to Saks. I actually went to Bloomingdales first today b/c I prefer them over Saks but the SA was alone and dealing with 4 really obnoxious women. I just walked away. off topic, but I have to rave about the D&G lipsticks in a place where people will read. :lol: Seriously, you guys need to try these things. The Monica Bellucci lipsticks, in particular. They are divine. The creamiest, most opaque lipstick and so long lasting. I got my third one today, Natural Monica. The best nude ever. On someone lighter it would be like a pinky/brown nude. So gorgeous.

 

[Bonitinha]

^^Oh dear -- another high end lippie to try!!

SO funny! You should tell us more shopping stories - I know you have them.

I'm game on the D&G - I love D&G.

And yes, Nordies is having problems getting shipments from Chanel.

I went to my local mall, and somehow these ls had snuck into the Chanel display. No fanfare whatsoever. Needing some retail therapy because of work, I purchased Enjouee, Gracile, Coromandal, and Exatique.

If my work continues to annoy me, then I may go back this weekend and buy four more. LOL! In short our IT department destroyed our computer/communications setup. My boss called it a "royal clusterf**k."

 

[CartoonChic]

NO! I will not be seduced by another high end brand. *slams down computer and storms out of thread*

Yay! Get onboard with D&G. I can't believe how good the lipsticks are. The creamy foundation is really good, too. I hate that I have to order from Saks b/c their shipping costs are out of control! I don't feel like making the trip to the store in NY. You'd think Neiman's would carry it. I have tons of stories, but I try to leave them out or else I'll end up writing a novel. People are hilarious/frustrating/unbelievable. If they could see themselves, maybe they'd quit it.

:lol: Oh, I love that expression. I use it often, myself. Well, at least you got in some retail therapy!

Come on over to the dark side. It's fun over here. Oooh, can I post pictures of them? Maybe I should. I would never want to hijack the Chanel thread, but...

It was a real shock hearing that come out of her mouth - LOL. Picture a sophisticated woman, in a power suit, who is always politically correct, etc.....

I may not make it until the weekend. I may go to the mall tomorrow. I keep asking the IT guys & gals if, when and how they are going to fix this mess. They keep saying "We don't know."

I'd like to see the pictures. Oh no. I'm already being sucked in.

Yup. If your own IT crew doesn't know how to fix the problem, then that's a perfect description of the situation.

 

[elegant-one]

I feel the same way about people - they drive me nuts in public.

Ahh man, Neimans doesn't carry D&G! that stinks

 

[shontay07108]

Packaging (my three Monica lipsticks + one from the regular range. I've put that one through hell).

Italian Monica, Only Monica, Natural Monica and Cosmopolitan

Cosmopolitan, Italian Monica, Only Monica, Natural Monica

same order

 

[Sugar & Spice]

I like the look of Natural Monica but I'm sticking to my lipstick list of 2 FNO lippies and the Dior Star fushia.

The train stops at 3 lippies lol

 

[Bonitinha]

Shontay -- is Natural Monica the pink nude I have been searching for all my life???
