Holy shit those are ugly. Those aren't the ones I wore though. Mine were navy blue leather lace-ups with the wavy sole. Mmmm....the 70s. How can an entire decade be so fugly?

Mine were kind of like these:Famolare Shoes with leather piping around the toe box. (As if that made them any more attractive).lol

ETA: I found some! http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/6/8/1...7076076_tp.jpg . I think one year I got this "fancy" pair:http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3278/...64709d.jpg?v=0 . Hey that was the height of fancy when you are 6yrs old in the 70s.

I might just come out there like a winner, and shop more then MAC! lol.

the packaging has holographics (sp)!

they're black metal compacts witha black and whie plaque with the repeat mac logo that changes into a black and white floral pattern for the holographic.

and there are some repromotes of LE colors and the look in a box all have perm colors. so sadly there are repromotes.

 

[Susanne]

Thank you Erin!!

Do you like the eye palettes anyway? Which shades can we expect? Will we get SE brushes and what do they look like?

I haven't caved and bought a MAC pre-made palette in years. Granted, I almost never use palettes, but they are always a little tempting. Looks like I'll be skipping this collection as well. Though I do looove mini lipglasses.

 

[romi79_2008]

That`s not so bad... for my wallet. I have the products in the look boxes-skip, I don`t like the frost finishes so unless the colors are really special skip the lip products. I have the brushes full isze-skip
I`ll just have to see the es palettes - I said to myself I won`t buy any lustres -happy
Thank you Erine

Two of our houses of worship in Seattle: Nordies and Starbucks (also born in Seattle). It's like I always tell DH, all good things come from Seattle.

Good things do come from Seattle! The greatest city on earth IMO!

 

[Miss QQ]

Thanks Erine. The packaging sounds very interesting! I want an eye palette and maybe a brush set and lip bag.

 

[LMD84]

this collection sounds great! i'm just really hoping that we get at least some of it in the uk! thanks again Erine!

 

[iadoremac]

I wont get the lip stuff because i dont like l/g with frost finishes. No point getting the e/s look stuff because the only color i want there is amber lights. I think i would just get a palette. If this collection comes to the uk
