I have Rose Insolent on its way to me. I hope that Nordie's has that collection out, because I'll probably pick up Rouge Fatal and Rose Confidentiel while I'm there.

Eh, I'm good with it, either way. If the cosmetic counters aren't happenin', I'll just saunter over to the shoes. I'll make 'em take my money one way or another.

Oh, oh. I had totally forgotten about Rose Confidential yesterday night (maybe it was because I was so tired I just could have opened one eye at the time
tong.gif
) but I guess I am adding that one to my mom's present
yes.gif


There is a huge storm right now and it's raining heavily, which is not usual here at this time of the year (we should be enjoying sunny, hot days still) so I am feeling kinda in "fall mood" ... time for warmer make up and Particuliere!

Hope you all have a nice day.

I've been trying to catch up on posts, but still have some to go -

I received my SOHO stuff a couple of days ago, but haven't yet played - I'm hoping to tomorrow.

How exciting! Have fun playing with SOHO. I'm so jealous of all you lucky ladies!!

Yes, I'm loving the lipstick, Confidentielle. When I first got it I didn't think it was too special but it grew on me alot and now it's the lipstick I keep with me in my purse. My "grandma territory" concern, though, was re the related np, Rose confidentiel:

The Beauty Look Book: Chanel Confidence, Confidentielle & Rose Confidentiel

BTW will someone please tell Chanel they need to make these names easier to distinguish - seriously, Confidence, Confidentielle and Rose confidentiel? They are driving me

Seriously. Why do they do that? Lack of imagination? It is so irritating. And there are a lot that start with the same letter (C, I, S) - surely there are more letters/words in the French alphabet/language that could be used? Consider the blush names too - many are some sort of take-off on 'Rose'.

They don't have that issue with the quads, and yes, there are fewer quads than lipsticks, but for crying out loud. Mix it up a bit!

Clearly Chanel could benefit from some creative naming services and a new IT organization

. I hate throwing rocks, but I also hate spending what I do for Chanel to get bad (or ineffective) customer service and have hassles when trying to give them my money

Rant over. Time to go enjoy the luxury of the products.......

curtsey.gif
but they are kind of cheap..lol and want to do it all in house.. anyway, it is lovely to see you posting (admitedly I have not been posting much on the Chanel forum cause I have been pissed at Chanel for my seriously messed up orders and I refuse to take that kind of service
rants.gif
) other than that, sending you a big huggg.. and letting you know that your wise words of warning (about me not dyeing my hair) have come to pass.. I want back to my blonde hair!
cutey.gif
rofl.gif

Ok, here are pics as requested, not that thrilled with them but these are about the best my camera can do:

Hope these help at least a little! Taking swatch pics really does bring even more appreciation for what Erin, Karla and Sabrina do for all of us. It's so hard to get truly representative pics!

GAAAHHHH this is killing me! I love the Soho collection so much. Why does it have to be so unaccessable to me. Even if it comes to Nordstroms their shipping to Canada is ridiculous! I need it to come to Neiman Marcus. Maybe if more comes to Holt's in Toronto I could find a way to get it. I wish they had online shopping :-(
