Tulalip, WA CCO (Seattle Premium Outlets)

Oh, and when I went they had two Perky paint pots. I can't truly say there was nothing there since there were quite a few items I would have liked to get (holiday brush set, Couture clutch, the loose beauty powders, Nile shadow, Sex Ray lipglass, more paints) but it's no new shipment and nothing terribly interesting.

Hey ladies, off topic-ish but I have great news - Allyson isn't going to be relocating to Oregon! She was offered the Store Manager position at the new Southcenter freestanding store and accepted so she will still be local. Yvonne (who is just as fabulous as Allyson!) from the UVillage store will be taking Allyson's place as the manager of the Redmond Macy's counter. If you see either of these gals at their new locations be sure to congratulate them on their well deserved and hard earned promotions!

All I know is I'm just happy I'll likely never have to battle the horrific parking lot at UVillage ever again! Yay!

Thanks freyja! I am glad that Allyson will still be close.

Which one is Yvonne? I am glad that southcenter will have a freestanding store because that is a lot better than going to U Village.

For me it is easier to go to U-Village since I am in the North End, and also since I can catch the 68 at Northgate. However Southcenter is fairly easy.

 

[imperfectbeauty]

Same here...i dont live too far from UVillage maybe about 15mins away so i'll continue to go there instead of Southcenter. I didn't know the 68 went to UVillage.

 

[KikiB]

Yep the 68 goes from Northgate to U-Village, also if you live out in Lake City or near there the 65 and 75 go by there. The 68 is easiest for me however if I am lazy I'll just take the 67 which turns into the 65.

 

[imperfectbeauty]

68 is extremely easy for me. i live prob 10mins walking distance from the transit station in Northgate. hmm...good to know that out of curiosity does the 68 run on roosevelt??

 

[KikiB]

The 68 does not. However you can catch the 67, which does, and it goes through UW and turns into the 65 which goes to Lake City but there is a stop on the southeast side of U-Village. The 68 stops on the west side.

 

[imperfectbeauty]

ohh ok...so i could just as easily take the 73 down to the ave and catch the 67 from there. walking isn't really a problem if we have good weather here like we've been having lately. lol.

 

[KikiB]

That is the other way you can do it...as long as you can get to the Ave, then you are good.

So i went to the CCO for the first time ever today with my fiance...he wanted to go to some other stores there so i got to go to the CCO. I ended up getting the paints i wanted and a liquidlast liner. It's quite a bit cheaper at the CCO which im SO happy about!! Plus the fiance was paying for everything not me and we set a $100 spending limit between the both of us so we wouldn't spend too much. lol. I was amazed to see that they had a lip glass or two from Lure still available as well as a lip stick from moonbathe. I wish they had the McQueen Collection paintpots though. Of course they had all the shadows. lol. Nothing new that i saw though from what others had seen.

 

[KikiB]

Which paints did you get! I definitely agree that now is the best time to get paints since they are at the CCO...$11.75 is better than $16.50. That and the lower sales tax.

 

[imperfectbeauty]

I got Chartru and Flammable paints and Inkspill Liquidlast Liner. They had a pack of three that they grouped together for like 31 but i want to try out the liner and see if i like it or not first then i'll consider getting more.

My fiance was like so whats the point of these, so i gave him a mini tutorial on why we use bases with a little demo using chartru and pagan e/s. lol. he got it and plus since he likes when i do my make up he didn't complain one bit. Actually he was tired/sore today so he was like even if i have to spend $100 to get you out of a store I will. LOL!! I spent...well he spent appx $38 on all of it.

we were walking out when i saw the brushes. lol. he wouldn't let me stop to see them so on our next trip up there im going to take a look at the brushes that are available there.

 

[coachkitten]

I am bummed to hear that they don't have anything new in but I am not suprised any more. I don't understand why they don't get bigger shippments because they seem to get a lot of volume from Canada and our state. I am still keeping out hope that a big one is coming!

 

[KikiB]

I don't know either, it sucks though because everything gets SUPER picked-over because of all the traffic from both sides of the border.

OK this is kinda off topic but Im hoping you Seattle ladies will help me.... I am going to a car show in Bellevue with my dad this weekend and I know I will get bored looking at cars for hours on end so.... whats the best mall around Bellevue? I always go to Alderwood which is before Seattle and ive been to Northgate like twice but I wanted to check out some new malls

thank you!

 

[wild child]

Bellevue Square! It's pretty nice there. The Sephora is a decent size & there's a Cheesecake Factory there

 

[KikiB]

Well the obvious one is Bellevue Square, which is a behemoth. Redmond Town Center has some decent stuff but it is further away, and Factoria is just an afterthought. Northgate has gotten better, although I am biased since I work there. I think the Sound Transit busses go the Seattle-Bellevue route on the weekends, so you could hit downtown as well. The malls aren't great-Pacific Place is small and very high-end while Westlake has seen better days (although all storefronts are filled for the most part)-but there are a lot of standalone stores (A&F notably).

This might be a strange question but are you by chance going to the Mustang Roundup at Bellevue Community College? My dad drags us to that every year because he collects classic mustangs. Just thought I would check!

Go to Bellevue Square. You will not be disappointed!

 

[imperfectbeauty]

what everyone else said...bellevue square is a pretty good mall if i didn't live far away i would go there. not that it's that far but with gas prices...
