C2 is good enough

Thanks, I really appreciate it!

Sooo... for those who have seen/swatched the Stowaways quad, is it worth getting instead of Shore Leave and Illegal Cargo? I can't seem to get my mind off the yellow in the quad!

Let me add that although collections are launched on the site on a Tuesday and the collections are in stores/counters on a Thursday, you can receive your on-line order on a Wednesday if you overnight express it for $5.00 provided you used the free-shipping code or the $60 promotion. A caveat, though, is you HAVE to place your order by 11AM EST or EDST, phone or on-line, to receive the order the following day.

Chrome Yellow or Going Bananas from C Shock could be an alternative for the yellow in the quad.

The yellow in the quad would be my main motivation for buying it. (Not to mention that it's LE and I feel like if I pass it will be out of my life forever!!) The other colors don't appeal to me at all. Although I don't own Satin Taupe yet, I don't feel like it's a color I've got to get.
The white doesn't show up as much as I would like it to and the blue color looks just like Knight Divine.

Despite all that, I still want the quad! WTH is wrong with me?? Someone needs to talk some sense into me.

Oh, you know what other clothes will look gorgeous with NN - Sunny Yellows with white or navy pants, skirts, shorts, or jeans. Red lips, nails & blue accented eyes would look stunning with anything yellow.
I don't normally wear yellow, but I did just buy a sun top in a beautiful bright yellow & white

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I am definitely going to try out Port Red to see if it looks good on me.

The swatches look very pretty, it doesn't seem THAT orange or tomato red as I was imagining. But we'll see. If I don't get it.. maybe I'll try Russian Red and take home another red.

I am warm in coloring, NC30... yet I wear blue based reds and fuchsias... I'm thinking for some reason that Port Red won't look good on me just because it is warm. Does that make sense?

I'm still only pretty much going to get Mutiny.
Ensign sounds tempting.. but I don't want to fall in love with it, if I already love Prrr and it's supposedly pinker or something. I'm satisfied enough with Prrr... plus it's perm!

And Freshwater!
I'm really trying to go for the perm collection huh?

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I went to Nordstom today to check out the quad. I really like it. I think the texture and color payoff for the yellow e/s is better than Going Bananas IMO. I was going through all my damn shadows this morning and realized I didn't have Satin Taupe for some reason. So needless to say I pre-ordered it for tomorrow.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I can't get to MAC this week either, so I ordered some stuff online. Not a lot as I'm saving money for Cool Heat. But anyways I got 2 e/s Illegal Cargo and Pandamonium and I'm very happy. I really tempted to get Mutiny pigment too but we'll have to see.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

Port Red. Is that metallic like Queens Sin or typical creamy red like most of the other reds.......

If it is metallic, then I want it, but if it is just typical red, I am not so sure., of course we have no MAC near me so I can not see it myself.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

Anyone knows the name of the song in the promo video?

Thanks!

Yellow seems to be a new colour for this summer - I also bought two shirts in a lovely yellow with white two weeks ago. I agree they will look gorgeous with white pants or jeans.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

Ok I need help or advice. NN and Stowaway is on Nordtrom.com now. And When I got to NN it takes me to the collection and I can order. But when I click on the Stowaway collection it just shows the picture of it. They are gonna realease it online right? And maybe do you guys think that it will launch tomorrow since it is the release date?? Help I called c/s for Nordtrom and they where like huh? Let me transfer you to the beauty department. ANd they took too long to answer so I hanged up. Ughh...I am having a MAC quad attack..lol, J/k but does anyone know how this works....TIA.

They will probably put it up tomorrow. They usually take longer than the MAC website.
