I guess it is the summer and it's always warm and sunny in So Cal, but unfortunately, some of the holes are over the butt. We're first generation Chinese, they don't throw ANYTHING away even if money is not at all a hardship for them.

Maybe I can turn these pants inside out and use them for waxing my car...

Because of the whole Rodarte contreversy that mes bordertown to me just looks like it is inspired from blood. I can't explain it but it's like a white background oozing blood.

I will be passing this collection anyway as i don't think anything suits my skintone.

Temptalia just confirmed that all of the sales from this collection are going to help the situation in Mexico. "MAC to Donate its Global Profits from the MAC Rodarte Makeup Collection to Benefit Newly Created Women and Girls of Juarez Initiative"

not only is this true, but MAC is also changing the visual image and the product names for this collection.

susanne, because they are doing this, can you possibly remove the image and names (of new, non-repromoted items) as all the current images and names must be destroyed. thanks!

Ok, I will remove the names and pics....

Can you PM me please if you have the one news I can post them?

Rodarte is NOT launching from what I just heard! My MA just got the call while I was on the other line with her.

I personally do not know if this is true or not.

What???? I am shocked and confused.... They were making all those changes...

 

[trulynicole]

If you can't read it sorry ): but they said its launching just a couple minutes ago. I hope Mac gets it straight...

I too believed that this collection would get a whole new look, names, and everything. If the news is true, it's very shocking. What is going to happen with those products they already have made?

 

[elegant-one]

They don't always know whats going on when they answer the phones. Maybe they didn't get the memo yet.

OR, my MA is wrong

 

[peachsuns]

Looks like I'll join you, laylalovesmac.

They should just scrap this whole collection. That's what should've been don from the very beginning. This whole saga amuses me now because it's just a comedy or errors.

 

[laylalovesmac]

^The cancellation doesn't affect me since I wasn't going to buy anyway, and I agree. It should have been scraped from the beginning.

 

[elegant-one]

I'm pretty sure that they wouldn't call the MA & tell them that if it weren't true.

It wouldn't affect me either. Not only because it isn't brown girl friendly, but even if they had the hottest colors I've ever seen, I'd boycott. If there was something offensive to my culture, I'd hope people of other ethnic backgrounds would do the same. This just doesn't sit right no matter how much they try to fix it.

 

[trulynicole]

^ Agree times 10. I wasn't going to buy. The whole situation was offensive. This collection should just go bye bye

 

[peachsuns]

Thank you, elegant and trulynicole for the info.

Hope we'll find out about this soon.
