Thanks everyone!
I did get married in Paris but not Versailles. We got married at a park near the eiffel tower and this specific photo was taken in the garden at Palais Royal.

Thanks, I almost forgot that there must be a 4th part.
I'm really interested how Runway Hit might (really) compare to Kinda Sexy or Oxblood. I tried T's dupe tool, but they almost look the same. I'm not sure how reliable her pics are.

I really like Runway Hit on T. AV... Not so much, but I like it. I need to go and see Karen's review (the full one - if it there)

Swatched some of these today. Runway Hit was my favourite, just gorgeous.
I ended up pre-ordering RH, Steady Going (which I swatched next to Please Me and Pink Plaid and it is very different) and Whirl which is darker then I expected but I think I can make it work.
Persistence was very dark and didn't really look like it did on Karen. Men Love Mystery (swatching for my NC42 daughter) is gorgeous, she will love it. Stone was a lot darker than I expected too.
A lot of pretty shades and plenty of stock from what I saw.
They still have the release date as June 18th.

Thanks a lot! Mandy's swatch makes me want Honeylove. I'm afraid I won't be able to wear RH since it's too warm-toned for me (not enough neutral brown/pinkish tones in there). I already own Oxblood and it's just on the edge of looking good; anything warmer would probably look weird on me. But I'll still have a look at it when the collection launches here...in AugustRunway Hit looks warmer than Kinda Sexy. Here are a few comparison swatches.

Antique Velvet looks very similar to Underworld. I already have Underworld and I'm not sure I need another lipstick that similar so that one may be off my list.

Thank you for saying this. I wasn't into MAC when Underworld came out and I always wanted it. Now, it's a definite purchase.

Same here regarding honey love, and RH. I'm one of the few people who don't like Kinda Sexy, it looks weird orange-brown on my lips. It seems like my lip color makes anything warm look orangey. I'm loving all of the Browns, though. AV is to die for! I have to get the blue, too, even tho I don't know where I'll wear it. Whirl and Stone are up there on my list, too.Thanks a lot! Mandy's swatch makes me want Honeylove. I'm afraid I won't be able to wear RH since it's too warm-toned for me (not enough neutral brown/pinkish tones in there). I already own Oxblood and it's just on the edge of looking good; anything warmer would probably look weird on me. But I'll still have a look at it when the collection launches here...in August :sigh: Until then, I'll admire the photos everybody's gonna post here!Runway Hit looks warmer than Kinda Sexy.

I have the same problem. Kinda Sexy, Brave, Twig, Please Me, Velvet Teddy, Spirit and even Mehr to a lesser extent turn orangey-brown on me. What looks like a beautiful mauve, rose, pink-brown-nude or nude-brown on someone else will be a hideous shade on me.

i had the same issue with kinda sexy, but i recently saw a video on youtube (forgot from which one it was), and the girl said she applies kinda sexy with her finger and rubs it onto her lips bc it changes the colour somehow...i tried it, it really does! was so happy bc i thought i would have to back2mac kinda sexy
it looks more "natural" and less orangey on me now when i apply it like this maybe it helps you too
