So I went on a lil nail shopping spree today lol I got the mini opi euro set( Suzis Hungary again, can't find my chez book , such a Budapest, and another polish joke) along with a full size of Polka.com, the blue and purple mariah Carey liquid sands full size and anti bleak, Essie T&C ( finally!! lol) , Nopi modern family Alex by the books and stand by your manny, and Illamasquas jomina. sephoras did not have the speckles set yet! darnit lol I'm trying to decide what to wear o my cousins wedding Saturday so I can paint my nails lol. I feel a sense of accomplishment crossing these polishes off my list. even tho I just keep adding more lol

Is anyone ordering Eastern Light or Western from chanel? I'm still debating on if I need western so I got eastern for now.

I went online to purchase Eastern Light and noticed on the Chanel web site the bottle in the AD has 'Easter Light' not Eastern Light. Very strange and a tad confusing---how do they not check these things??? It's a beautiful polish, I love wearing white polish, especially on my toes-----and it shall be mine. I know it will look amazing on you honey on boost!!!

I saw that typo. Ever since you mentioned wearing white polish with black Manolo Blahniks, I've been a little obsessed with white polish. My first was Zoya Purity last month. Then I got Chanel Intermezzo... Wait, that's all the white polish that I have. Lol. It felt like I had more. Maybe because I've been writing down white polishes that I plan to buy next. Eastern Light is on that list for sure. I still need to work on getting a pair of Manolos, but at least I'll have the polish covered.

I vote for Essie Turquoise & Caicos!

That's an Essie oldie but goodie. I think I got it because I liked the name! Pretty polish that gets my vote too!

My favorite whites are Essie's Blanc, Zoya's Purity, and Butter London's Cream Tea. Hopefully Eastern Light will rise to the top of that list because I ordered it! I think your favorite pair of strapy black patent leather sandals will work. It just looks so classy w/a white pedi.

honey, you're killing me! I need Shadow. I'm getting Eastern and Western Light. I have Western on hold at Saks with my SA and I'm waiting for her to get Eastern in stock. I know they're on Chanel.com now, but I'll get a GWP and double points if I order from Saks.




I also like your mani. I knew about the 30% off, but didn't know they had China Glaze. I'm taking a look. I'm waiting for Raindrops, too. Am I the only who thinks of that song, Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head?

Oooh, what colors did you get in your haul? I mentioned that Neimans had Tutu some pages back, but I guess my post got lost in the shuffle.

I think I must have missed it because I was so mesmerized by your amazing NP stash!!!

What happened is this---I was in bed with a back ailment----along with strong medication, my iPAD, iPhone & my credit card when I accidentally hauled the following;
Archie's Girls Prom Princess (mind you, I had already purchased 16 items from this collection).
The Benjabelle Brush Tree (in black)
Nail Polish: Dior's TuTu & Golden
Estee's Absinthe
Deborah Lippmann's Groove is in the Heart
Butter London's Artful Dodger
Chanel's Skyline, Island,& Eastern Light (Friday)
Illamasqua's Scarce, Mottle & Freckle
YSL's Jade Imperiale (replacement)
Other: NARS Eyeliner Rue Bonaparte

Everything has shipped except for Eastern Light because I ordered it after seeing Karen's swatches on Friday. That's a dozen NPs. Now with my luck my 12 A Englands will arrive before I have a chance to come up for air. I have my eye on a few more Illamasquas, one of which is the Neon pink. What a great pedi color that will make!

I was at my dm this morning and got 3 crackling tops coats from the Essence "Oz The Great And Powerful" Collection.

I had no idea there was such a collection but the polishes looked so nice that I had to get them

 

[Anneri]

I'm so not into crackling polishes, but now I've seen this: http://lackfein.blogspot.de/2012/09/crackling-sponge.html I think I've to brave the snow and get them!

Just because I can't leave my nails alone and got L'Oreal's Confetti polish today:



This is over Raindrops.

Next time I use Raindrops I plan to do a kind of sandwich and put one coat of Confetti between two coats of Raindrops.

 

[MACina]

I don' t do crackle nails often but sometimes I really like it.So far I do only have some OPI crackles and that is why I thought
it was ok to get some more

Thank you for the link, looks great

I can't wait to wear T&C I have wanted it for so long lol but I was always after the LE colors. glad I caught a break and got two perm products! (illamasqua jomina is perm). now I am going to look at those chanel reviews! medgal that is an awesome haul! I kinda wanna go see if Sally's has anything new lol

I'm not a fan either, but I love the way that it looks on others. It just doesn't suit me. I have to say, however I am open to experimenting. After all, it's just nail polish right?

I'm popping on here really quickly to say that if you have a 15% off coupon reward from Sally Beauty, you can double it today only and get 30% off. I went and got a bunch of China Glaze polishes and the 240 count of Graham HandsDown pads' along with some other non-nail stuff. My Sally's also has an additional $1 off China Glaze polishes until 2/28' so I got 10 of them for like $3.84/each with the 30% off. I hope that helps someone!

Thanks for this tip CC---so thoughtful of you to share. I wish Sally's were close enough to me to make the trip worthwhile.

I didn't seem to take that long either. LOL

drank it all. every last drop. LOL
that white chanel polish is goregous. I love wearing white polish too. I remember when Essie Ballet slippers (is that what it's called) was popular a few years back. (10???) LOL Back then I loved all things nude and light. Then in winter I'd do a dark chocolate brown.
