Dominicana!! We're glad you're here!!

Meg, thank you - you are so sweet

- things are getting easier day by day. I am mosquito repellent for everyone else - they feast on me! And I'm a scratcher - man, I HATE them!!

I hope your 'hickey' goes away soon!

MissQQ - thanks for the pic - I will post one of my Songes later today - the eggplant color is very similar to mine -on the back the colors are labeled 'Satin/Pearl/Peach/Eggplant' - my pink color is not at all gritty, and the peach color is just that - a straight-up peach. The silvery-pink color is about the same in mine too.....

I hope everyone is able to get the khaki nail polishes....I will also keep my eyes open -

 

[Miss QQ]

^^ Thanks, maybe they are the same, could be just the way the squares are circles and the arrangement of the colours. And the pics don't show what they really are.

The back of my quad does not describe the colours.

We do, and I bought it. Imaginaire over Confidentielle is brighter, but still soft and goes with everything.

Now I'm looking forward to swatches of Stunt.

OOoo!! I have a rasberry shade from Clinique, rasberry glace, that I really like...I will have to check out Emoi sometime then

I'm glad to hear you're doing better. It is difficult when we lose our furry buddies, but the time spent with them is sooooo worth it.

Speaking of furry buddies, I have an incredibly needy cat sitting with me eagerly (I'm so sure he is

) awaiting Les Khakis. I swear, the two of them take turns being my shadow!

 

[TealAngel]

Has anyone called a Chanel boutique, for reference, to see how the khaki nps are selling, if any colors are sold out, what's in danger of selling out?

 

[purrtykitty]

I'm pretty sure Khaki Vert will be the first to go...just a feeling.

Don't say that! LOL!! I'm thinking positive thoughts here I will get to order one! Even if, I have to pay $10 on one...did I just say that?!...

 

[Miss QQ]

^^ Hope you can get them!

I think I might be leaning towards the Reflets D'Ombre quad, but I'm still totally clueless. I'll have to venture out when my "hickey" goes away and check them out in person.

I had to apply cream too. Mine at the collar bone was the first to heal because it hurt to scratch on the bone. The less I scratch, the faster it heals, so try not to scratch yours. Those at my legs itched so bad that I woke up in the middle of the night scratching them until I had bruises all around the bites! I still scratches those at my legs, and guess what, I got bitten twice again at the outer wrist of my left hand yesterday by the same potent type of mosquito.

Hope you can go and see the quads in person soon!

Dunes looks like a neutral but pretty quad.

ACK!!!

OK some heads up!

the Chanel boutique in Boston, MA did not gett the khaki polishes in!
The Saks in Pittsburgh, PA did not get them in either!

EDIT: Neiman Marcus in King of Prussia, PA did not get them
Nordies in Pittsburgh, PA & Norfolk, VA & King of Prussia, PA did not get them in

 

[purrtykitty]

Yikes! That does not bode well for the online stores! Crossing my fingers for Nordies!

UM...OK...called the NY boutique that is re-opening tonight(Spring Street store)...and to ship ONE bottle of nail polish...$15...WHAT!? I would be curious if someone else called and got the same answer!!!

EDIT: REALLY hope these polishes pop up on Chanel's site...running out of options...no way im paying $15 to ship one bottle of polish...I can be crazy...not THAT crazy.

 

[Shypo]

I can't get Chanel's site to load (quel suprise) - maybe they're loading the nail polishes?

EDIT: Nope, not there yet.

That is ridiculous! I could tack on your Khaki Vert to my order, and ship to you, if you'd like. Shipping would only be around $3, then.

From the sound of it (on The Purse Forum), Nordies is getting these polishes. Some were able to pre-order them through Nordies.

 

[stv578]

Hey everyone!

First off, thanks for all the sweet comments for our new home! It means a lot to me! And yes Karin, the new polishes will be right at home! I'm sure DH will be thrilled!

I'm trying to find Particuliere to add to the other two, but can't seem to locate one atm!

Cheryl, I want to echo Karin's post about our furry little buddies. The last pet I had, I had to give up not long after my son was born because of allergy issues. I still get sad thinking about her.

I'm getting a bit too anxious waiting for Les Khakis to appear! Need to go for lunch, lol!

really?? the Nordies stores I posted in an above post said they weren't getting them...atleast that's what they said to me!...don't take my word on that!

 

[Shypo]

I just got my SOHO order, and the gift packaging was little black bags, not a larger one like I think you other ladies got - unless I saw the pic wrong....and the strange thing is that 2 of the bags are long, and the other more square and short.

All are a simple flat cotton, with cord drawstrings and 'Chanel' / chanel.com on the front. I'll post a pic later today.......along with lippee swatches of Emoi -

 

[genduk26]

i'm guessing Khaki n/p will pop up on Chanel's site this afternoon. then the site will get busy or chrashed. once again we will get confirmed or cancelled by monday. just like soho collection. popped up on friday, got crashed, got confirmed / canceled by tuesday. so lame

 

[purrtykitty]

I got those bags, too, and I didn't select gift packaging. I wonder if they that just for Soho?

that's the wrong kind of attitude! Positive thinking and thoughts only!!
