Now i can haul this collection at my bfs house if it comes up and he wont even know hehe ^_^
I got concerned reading about the iPhone issues so I checked mine. I was able to get on the US site w/o the google chrome app. Not sure why but I'm glad I checked. I learn so much from you awesome ladies!

LOL, that happened to me too not too long ago at the MAC flagship.

I got antsy of waiting and stalking the website so I went to the pro store and purchased my items today. I actually stayed true to my original list...

Dramatic Encounter L\S - Very vampy dark. It does look like Yung Rapunxel on my lips, however YR has a purple undertone and DE has a red undertone when I look verrry closely. The application of DE is better but still not a need if you have YR. Outrageously Fun L\S - A pink Up The Amp just like CartoonChic said. In hindsight, It's not a need but I guess i'm happy to have it. I definitely do not need another pink lippy for another year. Flight Of Fancy L\G - Just like all the swatches. Love it. Small Vanity Blush - I wanted to love it but for some reason didn't. It's not that dark\deep as some of the watches depict. It's more of a pinky\peach. It's just seems like a sheen on me so it can be a color that's buildable. WOG & Superb EDSF - Experienced skippers remorse so I am happy to finally own them. I ended up hauling some PRO blushes since I skipped out on SV. Swatched the other 3 lipsticks but they all seemed too pale for my complexion although I feel I should've gave glamourdaze a second look over. I didn't catch the name but there is a champagne EDES, it was soooo buttery and seemed like the perfect color for an eyebrow highlight. I would've purchased but my wallet was already hating me.
Try Outrageously Fun with Flight Of Fancy over it. It makes a beautiful combo.

Yea, that's what i'm waiting for, too. Every time I see a swatch of Easy Manner, it looks a bit different each time

I pre-ordered via Nordstrom today and the MUA said things look totally different in person. Things that appeared too light via camera swatches and even in their product books were not.
Just saying.

I have Narcissus, Plum Fun, Desire and Vacant, a pretty decent range in the purple family. I'm tying to control myself a bit here. Do you think I need Flight of Fancy too? Narcissus is gorgeous and a real favorite. I'm not sure about how it stacks up against Flight of Fancy....H-E-L-P

I wish I had Narcissus to compare.

But I think Narcissus is lighter in color and lacks the glitter of Flight of Fancy. Plus I love the CSG formula. I would say Flight of Fancy is probably closer in color to Richly Revered CSG, but with sparkle and the tacky texture of a Lipglass. I don't have any of the other glosses you mentioned either, so I'm no help here.

I think Stylishly Merry is a skip for me. Plum Dressing is a close enough Dupe for me if I really need something similar. Not as shiny... maybe reflective (I don't know the word I'm looking for) but it works for me. Yeah! One more thing off my possibility list. :)

They are indeed similar, but SM looks a tad brighter. I don't have PD but I do have Hepcat, which I believe is also a touch brighter than PD. I wonder how SM would compare to Hepcat. I need to trim down my list!

I just want this collection online already! ;). There are no stores or counters close by and I thank everyone for their swatches and thoughts. So far this is my list: Glamourdaze l/s, Stolen Moment e/s, A Natural Flirt e/s, and Ready to Party e/s. I also plan to get the coral mini lip set, the orange/peach brush set, and the smokey eye palette. Not toooo bad

i wish i had picked up narcissus.
i've learned my lesson this year (with makeup as well as other things) -- if you think you might like it, buy it - don't wait too long. because later, it might not be there!!!

Flight of Fancy looks nothing like Narcissus imo. I relate Narcissus to being kind of a lavender with a hint of pink in it. That's why I love it as much as I do, because it's so gorgeous on its own. Flight of Fancy is much darker, maybe a hint of plum, and it has a reddish tone to it. Then FoF has sparkle/sheen in it, whereas Narcissus does not.
