Those are great choices. I have Emeraude and plan to get Onyx. The grey shade in the upcoming Chanel quad looks a bit like Onyx. Re; TF All they had were testers for pre-ordering. Those were locked away. So the SAs were trying to show me how they wore the blue one. LOL. I also tried Wicked, but now am leaning towards the Chanel cream from the new collection. It's a pinky peachy color. The odd thing about BG is that the store lighting makes all the SAs see me as cool toned so the Chanel SA was telling me I should only wear cool toned blush. It's how I got sold on TF platinum which looks horrible on me and had to return it. So I really have to double check anything I try on there rather than purchase right at the time. Right now for the TF Spring, I am most interested in the mascaras. How is the TF mascara?
Oh I see about the testers being locked away. I already have the cream blushes in Affinite 65 (Intense Blue
Pink) Chamade, 67 (Deep Pink) Inspiration -64 (Soft Blue-Pink) and Intonation, 69 (Warm Rose).
I sure hope the new one is different from these pinks. It'll be a real bummer if not.

I've never tried the TF mascara.

It looks peachy with a hint of pink. I have Affinite, Intonation, and Presage. It's not another pink, but it also looks like it could be a bit light. I know Christine at T likes the Chanel cream formula and it's her kind of shade, so she might swatch it and we'll see.

I'm not sure what to do. I'm not in love with the plum duo. But I think that is the only one that would be flattering on my eyes, and would be (of the three) the one I'd reach for most. Though, the Green and Blue-- from swatches-- seem to be a little more intense and pigmented. I feel like these shades would be much more appreciated in person. I'm not sure I can drop the money on a TF duo without knowing if I'll for sure like it or not. Wish I had a location near by!
Lauren: Are the department stores stocking testers now? If so, I might have an opportunity to go by. The problem is they so sell you and then I feel guilty for not buying. Also on the Xavier/ VF differences, when I arm swatches them after the storm in better light, they were much closer but the Xavier after stain is slightly warmer and the bullet colors are different too with VF pinker and Xavier more red-- not that that means much.
My Neiman's didn't have the testers of the duos out, but as soon as I showed up to swatch some of the boys, the SA pulled them out without me even asking. They're a pass for me, especially at a $60 price point.

Not sure if this link has been posted here but it is Silverkris' swatch post and FOTD of the new TF eye duos: http://www.silverkis.com/tom-ford-spring-2015/

For me, I am going to pass because these are not what I would really wear. I use these intense colors as eyeliners and prefer stuff for that purpose-- but enjoy everyone!

Oh no.... now I need Crushed Indigo. I'll have to text my SA in the AM. *sigh*

I just named some of the pinks that I have and hoped something different was on the horizon. I also have Presage
(my fav), Cheeky, Destiny, and Revelation. I think that covers all of them. I'll be looking for those swatches.
Thanks!!!

This looks so pretty layered! I'm going to try it tonight with Raw Jade. When I applied it the last time, I just did the traditional way of applying then blending. I guess I should wet my brushes too to really get the effect. Thanks for sharing the link!

Just a heads up for any Aussies here that the Fall collection has finally hit Australia. I just ordered Softcore from David Jones. So thrilled, I had major skippers remorse over that and had completely blanked on the fact it would be available here eventually.

Well, Meddy, I ended up ordering the Chanel blush from the Whitening collection sight unseen. It's not out yet but from the advanced photos, it's right in range for me. I also ordered the TF purple mascara. It can wear it to give a little oomph to the neutral eye I usually wear and it will work with the lips and boys like Francesco as well as La Romanesque and the Affinite blush. I have yet to try it, due to the lock away the product incident, but will try to get in store to do so before it ships.

That's so cute! I remember when I was in the UK last and my mom emailed me to tell me George had developed a skin rash and had scratched himself raw in a spot and she had to take him to the doctor. I almost wanted to come back home right then and there. Lol
