That is what I am afraid of. I missed LG on Macys & Bloomingdales this morning. Ugh! If I go to either the counter or Mac store thursday and there is a crowd how will they deal with it?
Quick I missed out too but I just called Macy's Customer Service and placed an order with them right when they opened at 9!!! Got Love Goddess!

Very true! I am debating picking up the e/s and blushes now or waiting til they arrive on the department store websites in the UK. I am also liking the look of SI for some reason?? Do any pale NWs like it? TIA!
Yeah, SI is nice! It's not the kind of colour I usually wear, but it's good for a dramatic, edgier look on occasion. It's very, very close to Lady Danger though, so you can always pick that up instead.

I know - it's astounding! I feel ridiculous also but I know fine well had today not played out how it has that I would have missed everything - guarantee it!

I picked up TPC and skipped on Legendary, but I'm NC15 and I honestly think Legendary looks slightly similar to Immortal Flower and I really don't use that one often so couldn't justify it. TPC seems like a more "everyday" thing imo. I'm so excited, it's showing as "In Warehouse" - who knows maybe I'll get lucky and it'll ship tonight (doubtful but I can hope!)
Definitely - this sort of thing is so hard to predict!
I'm so glad you manage to get what you wanted :)
I also have IF, so I may just get TPC - it looks really pretty in swatches!

Ooh I don't have that one! I might just order it anyway. I'm sure someone on here would be willing to take it off my hands!
I remember that I liked it when Iris Apfel came out, but for some unknown reason I didn't order anything from that collection - I really wish I'd snagged Pink Pigeon and Party Parrot!

Did you get anything from MM yet?

She's too funny! Here's a pic of her putting on a kate moss lippie that I got her for "playtime" around the house but now she wears it everywhere. oh boy!

The lady on Nordies Live Chat just then said the collection will be up "before midnight tonight" but doesn't have the exact time ... Uh oh! Let the stalking commence!!

It really is! I actually missed college today even though I had every intention of getting up and going in but slept so awful due to spasms in my neck that when my alarm went I just ended up going back to sleep. When I did wake up I felt so guilty and awful that I e-mailed my teacher apologising profusely lol. I know though that had I gone, it'd have come out earlier than it did and it'd be sold out. Tis how these things just work lol.
I am too, thank you! I also picked up a bunch of perm items: Blot powder (It better work!), Lip Prep & Prime, Rebel l/s and Beet l/l (original to save £1 on MM shiny packaging) along with the BP, TPC and LG. Spent way more than I intended though. Oops.
TPC really does look pretty in swatches, I'm excited!

I kept on checking the MAC site on my phone in the intervals between teaching! I was in the library when I ordered actually (meant to be studying malaria), but the computers had MAC as a restricted website so I managed to order via my phone. I was quite surprised I managed it actually!
TPC looks prettier the more I search for swatches! I may just cave before Debenhams has it up.
So thankful we didn't seem to get all the craziness - it just makes everything a little more relaxed!
 
I went to an event on Friday to pick up my presale items and get a little Marilyn makeover...



Everything that was sold out had a sticker on it, convenient I suppose.



I'm not a fan of what she did to my eyes but I love love love the BP & Love Goddess. The BP was used all over my face, I think I need to get a backup of it..




Today I tried the Deeply Adored lipstick & I love this one too.

Wow! I ordered mine Thursday and there already at the post office and I only did standard shipping. I'm quite impressed with their speedy delivery for this line. I order online from MAC all the time and it usually takes longer than two business day.

Lol, how terrible of you! Thinking about makeup when you should be studying malaria! Tut tut.

Ah yeah - I'm not surprised it was restricted. God forbid people do anything other than they should be lol. I'm impressed you did! I had to order takeaway on just-eat once for my family as I wasn't gonna be in town to go pick up food in time and had to order it off an iphone, was a nightmare!
It does, right? Ahhh cave! I plan on ordering from Debenhams later in the month for points. I wanted this stuff asap though and Debenhams always takes like 5 days to get to me. I just couldn't wait any freaking longer.
It's weird we didn't get the craziness, I was expecting it. I am relieved though and I feel quite calm knowing I missed the "mad rush" and got it. I had a mini-one when trying to order though. Put the wrong card number in and had it declined so I had to rush onto my online banking and have a freak-out thinking my money had vanished into thin air. XD

I feel a bit silly for going so crazy now!
Can't wait to get the bp and my lippies though

I have to go run some errands and I'm scared to leave my computer lol! I feel like if I'm not sitting and staring at the Nordstroms site, the Marilyn stuff is going to come and go without me! :p
