Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

The June Vogue features Chanel's Super & Genial lipsticks! I'm assuming it was Super on the Model - very very pretty on her.

You will come back with much appreciation for what you have and learn so much about other ppl who share this planet with you. And you will realize in the end that ppl are always the same. The basic struggles remain untouched.

Enjoy your weekend, dear!!

I wish my husband and I had taken the time to travel more before we had kids!! You use the "lost" shirt trick, too? LOL My husband still believes that things just happen to get lost in the wash. haha I just got an email today from Chanel about free shipping. Oh why do they tempt me so?? Ummm, it doesn't take much to tempt me!!

What I love about Exquise it's the fact it's a chameleon shade... it's bright but not bold and you can always tone it up or tone it down with gloss!! Since it's a warm shade it'll never look too bright. But that's me...

Don't worry, it you truly want to, you'll travel. Now it's easier and there's lots of options!! Maybe when your kids grow a bit?? I traveled a lot as a kid and a teenager with my parents and memories of all those travels are one of our most cherished as a family... there's no family dinner or meeting at my parents where we not revisit them!!

I don't use it that often, but I have!!

I think its page 75. I hope I have the issue right - I saw it at my hairdressers this morning. Unless it was Glamour mag., but I'm pretty sure it was Vogue.
Its featured on the inside cover I believe & then they send you to the article.

I was almost certain it was June - maybe July??

Or, maybe its a different page!

Isn't that watch beautiful!!!

I told hubby that he could get the black one & get me the white

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

^^

I'll look at my Vogue closely. I still don't get the July one.

Yeah that watch rocks!! Your idea it's great!! If only we could afford the two of them!!

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

Is it possible there are different issues for different countries? I know some magazines even have different issues for different parts of the US....

Oh how exciting...the first step in the big move! I'll be thinking of you and your family this weekend hoping everything goes smoothly without any little hiccups. Glad you'll be able to check in from work too, we'd miss you around here!

I'm so looking forward to hearing about all of your weekend events ladies! The hubby and I are going to enjoy some frozen drinks and snacks all weekend with friends while watching as much of the World Cup as possible (and calling our dads of course!). We kind of have the revolving door place...everyone comes and goes whenever they want and we love it. No kids for us yet (changing in the next few years) so we're really living it up like kids ourselves until then!

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

Some fall collection info:

I found most of the new fall collection on NM's website! It's not listed under what's new, but in the actual product sections. The new items aren't shown yet in picture form, but they're listed on the drop down boxes when you go to pick your color. I found most of the collection...minus the JC blushes (Enigma, all 4 Glossimers, the 3 Lipsticks, and both Nail Lacquers are all up now).

All of the items are on Back Order status and have the notation of "Expected to ship no later than 7/7/2010".

That's not too long to wait, hopefully the collection will start showing up elsewhere soon!

Oooh sounds nice. Okay, I guess I still need it! I wore Satin Taupe today and I really like the colour, but I find it looks slightly purplish and definitely has that golden sheen you describe.

Taupe Grise is really a pretty color especially if you like smokey eyes.

That watch ranges in price from $5000.00 - 18,000.00
