Chanel Fall 2011

I guess if you have the money & are lusting after it...

You look like you would wear red very well. I never worry about Chanel reds - they are the cream of the crop when it comes to red. Usually always done to perfection.

Chanel red are always intense - thinking of Dragon! I hope I can see this face to face before I buy! I also want to try the new velvet texture of the Rouge Allure I think I've made my decision

Can;t beat Chanel for their Reds.. well, CD does some great reds too but this one should be stunning. And, perfect for the season .

I highly doubt we get this collection as early as July in Canada. We usually get Chanel stuff a month or so behind US here (with the exception of the RC's and RC Shines). I kinda am glad that's the case anyway. Excited as I am about Chanel fall I actually prefer to wait till closer to fall to get buy my goodies.

35deg C plus humidity just doesn't make me wanna wear fall makeup, lol! My Antigone RC shine is getting quite bit of use though...

Shadowy.. my 1st Antigone is going fast.. good thing I have a few bu's.. I just got one called "Unique" -- I suspect it might be a colour for International only.. do you know it?

 

[Shadowy Lady]

Hi HG Antigone is soooo gorgeous! and this comes from a non-believer in sheer lipstick formula, lol! I'm gonna check my counter for Unique. What shade is it supposed to be?

 

[User38]

Hi Shadowy.. it is darker than Fetiche and on me, brighter than Bonheur but with the tiniest flecks of shimmer which makes it outstanding.. I truly did not expect it to be so lovely and did not even see it in person to swatch .. but Ramon bought it for me from Argentina. I have another 2 bu's of Antigone.. lol.

^^ The RC Shine in Unique is permanent here in Germany. I only have Boy so far, but I think I need another color. I was looking for Royallieu, but couldn't find it, was it limited edition?

 

[Shadowy Lady]

HG that sounds beautiful! U're so lucky to own it! I def stop by my counter tomorrow to search for it. I'v had a tough week so I need the makeup distraction

Well, I muse over the fact that ebay people read here & then jack the prices or hoard quantities. I almost bought the lipstick online - we talked about it here & then next thing i know the prices get jacked. This happens on here with the Mac collections as well - ticks me off.

I'm not happy about that either. If I bought all the items I want I'd end up spending about $345. At the current exchange rate that's 236€ and while I've spent that much on Chanel before, it certainly wasn't on 4 items alone. Make up here is expensive, Chanel's Les 4 Ombres costs 46€ ($67) and a Rouge Allure Lipstick is 29.6€ ($43.25), but even at those prices if I were to buy the Byzance Collection here I'd "only" have to pay about 150€ ($219). For that reason I really don't feel like buying anything on ebay. I want to buy all the collection's items (except for the $250 palette), but I'm going to explore every possible option before even considering buying anything on ebay.

If I missed out on a LE item I try to forget it, I just can't justify buying things from ebay with crazy hiked up prices!

OMG! That eyeshadow is flipping gorgeous! Love those kind of colors.

I am in so much trouble....I;m just going to give Chanel my bank account # so they can just electronic transfer all my money direct.

Aggh, just found out my laptop is going to cost $335 to be repaired. Thats a lot of lipstick & blush money
