Guess who's getting Excessive? My fiance knew that I was on the hunt for a Chanel red. So he looked through my history and found the swatches that I've been looking at on Temptalia and took it upon himself to search the net and find Excessive (which he found on neimenmarcus.com). He said he liked that one best b/c Temptalia described it as a cherry red.

He wanted to surprise me but he couldn't wait. It's on backorder right now. I should have it by the end of the month. I'll post swatches as soon as I get that baby in my hands!!

Ladies I want to thank you again for the warm welcome. I'm so glad I started posting.

Wow - now that's a nice fiance!

Can't wait to hear what you think of it.

 

[missanne]

Thanks. I always show him pics of colors that I like, but I never thought he was really paying me any attention. Now hopefully he'll like Excessive so much he'll get me Dragon too.

Tomorrow will be my baby girl's first day of kindergarten, ugh, that'll be tough too.

The first days of school can be so tough. I hope it all goes ok and your kids have a great time! My 2nd grader was a little teary today because she says she misses me so much at school and it makes her cry.

They can be so tender!

I must say you have a great fiancee! To start supporting your Chanel habit already

A keeper for sure!

Back to stalking Chanel full-time. No sign of Les Khakis. I'm going to try to refrain from posting until they are up for sale, so as to not unnecessarily alarm anyone.

Why, do you think it may be today

 

[elegant-one]

Well, Chanel CS says that my order shipped on the 5th, but the tracking still does not show where it is. UPS says the shipper must not have shipped it

Probably just a delay at UPS because of the holiday - I hope

 

[purrtykitty]

Lol...I think tomorrow or Thursday will be the day Les Khakis goes live. Give the webmasters time to get it up. I wouldn't be surprised to see the polishes up maybe late today, but "Out of Stock" like Soho was.

 

[elegant-one]

They are having issues again today on the site

They said that they are trying to get it fixed. Kinda silly to send out that mass emailing on SOHO when they knew it was already broke on Friday. I can't check out, then whatever is in the cart just disappears.

 

[Shypo]

I am having the same issue - I received no email confirmation of shipment, but the site says it shipped today, but UPS can't find any info on it.

Good thing they have beauty and skin care nailed down.....they could use a hand with technology, that's for sure!

Well I'm glad to know that its not just me. I get on Chanel's CS all the time (like Friday & this morning)

I'm bad

 

[purrtykitty]

My guess is your stuff is sitting waiting for UPS to pick it up. That's why there's no shipping info from UPS side. It has a tracking number, but UPS hasn't acknowledged the package yet.

I checked my packages today, and they just arrived in Kansas City. On track for arriving tomorrow!

 

[elegant-one]

^Awesome!

 

[TealAngel]

Just thought I would check the availability of the SOHO line on Chanel's site. I Can't believe the nps aren't sold out! Maybe not everyone knew about the free ship code late last week/over the weekend and they just figured to wait until the khaki nps came out so they would only have to pay shipping once?

Mine is the same way - just Billing Info Received since 9/3.

 

[purrtykitty]

Well, the collection wasn't supposed to be online until the 7th (according to blog sources) and I just got the e-mail today. Plus, the website is apparently being a pain again (it's probably overloaded with buyers). I wouldn't be surprised if the nps (or at lease Steele) were gone by the time Les Khakis are released.

Grrrr...I hate that and it happens on there all the time!

 

[User38]

I just got a nasty surprise -- out of the four prods I ordered from Soho Collex, 2 were "cancelled" and I received instructions that I needed to reorder..lol. What a ~!@#$%^&* Chanel website is!

these were the ls and lg.. and now I am waiting for the axe to drop on the quad and the np.

yep yep... it freaks me out that a site like Chanel would have such a lousy service for online purchases

lol.. good thing my post hangover blush was bought in Saks NY

the website is poorly designed and is a pain in the ass to use. I got the purple np cancelled already
