Green is in!

I've actually been catching up on reading about "Fashion."
Rumor has it, Greens & Jades are the "in" colors for this fall. ^_~
Time to bust out that green nail polish ladies!

I need me some Chanel Jade nail polish!
I'll pick up two bottles tomorrow, one for me, and one for my November Lottery Prize!
haha I'm a sucker for anything pictured in a magazine, and I read about this in the latest Cosmopolitan (the one with Kim K. on the cover).

I've been wanting to make some pieces with Jade, but most of the Jade that can be found in the USA is no good. There is a jewelry trade fair/convention come November 14th in Tacoma, Washington. Tickets are $5 at the door. Minh's sister Van & I are planning on checking that out. I have my finger crossed for Jade. I've heard from several friends & family members that the best Jade comes from Taiwan. Is anyone familiar with Jade? Let's chat!

Anyhow, what's new with you girls? I've been reading blogs : ) Seems like everyone is enjoying the Sephora F&F sale ^_~

My package actually arrived today. I ordered 6 tubes of YSL lipsticks, which ones? You'll have to wait to find out! I now own a lucky 7 tubes. I was a bit disappointed when Sephora didn't include my 3 samples :( I guess they ran out of samples? I did get my 100pt sampler of the Nars primer. Can't wait to try that out.

I don't have much more to say apart from have a great evening!

Love,

Steph

  2. I hear all the jade now a days is all fake. I got my jade bangle in China like almost 10 years ago on vaca with the parents, but my pendents are old, from my grandparents. So hard to tell what is real or fake. Take lots of pics at the convention if you can, I bet there will be lovely pieces!

  3. That jade green is very pretty, but that pastel shade makes me think of summer more.

    I survived the sephora F&F without buying anything! Hope I don't cave anytime soon haha

  5. Green is love! You know black & green are my colors! :) That CHANEL one is super pretty!!

    I have lots of Jade, but as far as quality goes I'm afraid I can't help you. But my Gma used tell me that the more you wear your jade the darker it gets. I believe her! ;)

  6. Hi! I just discovered your blog (now that I'm a addict to DSK jewelry XD).

    I heard a LOT of good things about the Chanel's jade. I won't buy it cause I find it too expensive for a nail polish (already have over 150 of them so I have several nail polishes very close to this color).

    I didn't buy anything through the sephora sale, I'm completely broke right now -_- but it's nice to be able to spend even a little less (to buy more IMO ^^).

    About jade, you're so right! It's really difficult to find good ones but hope you'll be lucky ^^
