Carlsbad Premium Outlets (North County San Diego)
http://www.premiumoutlets.com/outlets/directions.asp?id=66

Las Americas (down south, literally the last exit before the border)
http://www.premiumoutlets.com/outlets/directions.asp?id=76

I've found the Las Americas outlets have a better selection (and usually get collections in first), but the SA at Carlsbad are ten times nicer (and don't stare at you like you're THISCLOSE to shoplifting the entire store). But truth be told, the selection at these outlets are not the best I've seen at a CCO, but definitely worth a shot if you're in the area. If you happen to make your way to an hour or two north OC/Inland Empire area, I can give you info on those as well.
Cool! Thanks for the info.

I'll probably be going to up LA to visit a cousin during that period, so i ought to make a list of everything from LA to SD and see which are the easiest to get to. Guess i'll check out the "premium outlets" website for more locations. Thanks, again.

About 6 weeks to go! My GD things should keep me happy until then so that I don't go too crazy, but swatches would be really lovely...

Wow, I think I liked this collection better before the color story and when we were calling it Tuxedo Lesbians. Love the promo picture, hate the fact that most of the eye products are already perm or promo from prior. I am still on a gloss no buy and none of these descriptions is making me want to break that. I am pretty excited about some mattenes in the purple range but not too much else. Of course I am a quad whore but do I need two navy e/s and yet ANOTHER copy of carbon? Even I am thinking of skipping the quad.

My very short list is Unconventional, Seductive Intent, and Nocturnal Instincts. Although all of those are actually cool sounding names now that I see them typed.
