DH called the look "robot toes"! Such a pretty colour though, goes on beautifully and looks really nice with black sandals! |

Ahh that green looks so lovely on your skin tone! I don't want to grow old and not be 'allowed' to wear the trends. What's the fun in that?
But if I saw my mother wearing the majority of my bright polishes I'd be mortified. Luckily she only steals Essies.
I cannot wait until Nov. for the holiday collection. I'm still sooooo upset we didn't get the RAL or RC. I want to cry.

Elegant, let us know if they do offer free shipping! I was so fed up with the site, I missed the entire Soho collection. I went out of town and and am just now getting caught up on everything!
I did manage to get the new mascara and am loving it! It almost gave me doll eyes -- it made my top and bottom lashes long and thick!
Hope everyone is doing well!!

Me too. Why does Canada always get the shaft?
Do you know how much the quads are sold for in Canada. I think I heard somewhere $70? What about that Soho blush/highlighter? I always order from NM in the US so I don't know. I just know the RCs are $8 more in Canada which is NUTS.!

Even though I spend so much $ on Chanel I can't seem to justify $30 on a mascara. It's one thing I keep getting drugstore because you have to pitch them so often. I'm sure, knowing me, one day I'll sucumb to the temptation though. It sounds amazing!

Bergdorf Goodman has a good deal going on. BGBEAUTY for $25 off $100 and BEAUTYFS for free shipping. They do not have alot of the newest Chanel...no Soho, Khakis or Extrait de glosses, but they do have Rose Confidentiel np and Rose Confidentielle, Excessive and Emotive l/s, and of course the Enigma quad, all of which I have seen people wanting to buy with free shipping. They also seem to have some of the older glossimers that are not around alot of other places anymore.

My lashes have gotten so wimpy, it was time to step up my mascara LOL You can get samples of the mascara, though, if you want to try it out!

So, no luck with Nordie's round two. No one was at the counter...again. Oh well, guess I'll just have to stalk the websites, etc.

Quoting myself to say that while I still prefer RC to KV on myself, after trying a full mani (then taking it off and trying a full pedi) I ultimately decided that RC is in "grandma territory" on me.

That's too bad...do you have Illusion D'Or? I wonder if adding a little sparkle topcoat might punch it up a bit?

Go figure. Oh well, I'm not too fussed...the Extrait collection is out at my local luxury department store stand-in, Von Maur.
Sidenote, I stopped by the VM in Wichita while I was killing time waiting for hubby to finish up work, and asked if perchance they would be receiving the Soho collection. The SA said that a customer told her the Extrait collection was part of Soho, but they wouldn't be getting the eye shadows. I had to correct her, I couldn't help myself.
