Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

Heehee! I'll bet your face smells divine, lol!

And thank you so much elegant! I was pretty nervous about posting a body shot, but then I figured, I'm also in the process of dropping some weight, so this'll be a good way to chronicle the loss, as well.

I loooove hats, especially in the spring/summer. Keeps my scalp from getting burned...it's already been burned once, and it isn't even summer, yet! I'm in need of a good straw hat, and I'll have to check that one out.

I have Mystic Eyes, Kaska and Variations. I love all of them, but especially Mystic Eyes.....if you can find it, Demure is fabulous too for a smoky neutral eye. Most of my others are older LE ones.

Oh, and I recently bought Winter Nights, which is gorgeous, but I haven't worn it yet.

OK -- all of you fabulous ladies are making me want to place an order for quads right now! Sandra Bullock was on the cover of In Style a while ago and it said she was wearing Mystic Eyes. I have been obsessed ever since!!


Elegant -- I want Chanel to do free shipping again, too!

I have the US Songes - the colors listed on the back are Satin/Pearl/Peach/Eggplant - all have a subtle shimmer - the colors are a light rose, a muted pale pinky/white color, a pale peach and the dark color is brown with plum (eggplant describes it pretty well). Mine is an older one, so maybe they re-released it internationally with different colors

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

Wow, I put the Kaska Beige quad in my Chanel cart and forgot all about it! I want it so bad. It looks so delicious in the looks used on Temptalia.

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

Since Neimans has the free ship now (but what I want they either dont have or its backordered) I was thinking about the Demure quad - but they don't have it

Nor do they have the new stuff that was in todays Chanel email. double

Me too!! I was hanging around the MUFE thread earlier in the week - I ordered a couple of the new aqua shadow creams (I can NEVER remember the name of those things!) - can't wait to get them from Sephora!! Woo hoo!

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

So I'm contemplating my list for the new duos.....I think I want the following:

Berry Rose
Taupe
Gris

I think I'll limit myself to these 3, since I want the Enigma quad and one of the new JC blushes.....and probably 2 of the glossimers.......it's going to be an expensive Chanel summer/fall.

You've inspired me to create a blog - granted, most of what I have to say probably won't be of much interest to many others, but what the heck. I'm playing around with the format now - I can't seem to find a template I like, but I'll figure it out eventually.

Mine has a head and no body!!!

I feel like SUCH a goober!

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

I'm so happy to have inspired someone, lol! I messed around with formatting for hours before I finally got it the way I wanted. I originally picked out a pink template, but it irritated me, so I went with that minimalist one and did colored fonts.

Oh, and now my MUFE goodies arrived, so I'll have those to swatch, review and do EOTDs with!

I just added your blog to my favorites. Very cool. I've been thinking about a blog, also. Heaven knows I have the time. Maybe soon. I love the name of your blog, too. I also have an obsession with makeup/cats.

For some reason, the link didn't work for me. Is your blog up and running? This is so fun, I love it -- more makeup obsession!

Update: got it to work!!
