What came in the *mail* today?

Actually FedEx: an order from LuckyScent.com. I had ordered a full–sized bottle
of Ebba Miss Danielle (hi, could the packaging on these Ebba fragrances *be* any
cuter?) and a sample of Les Nereides Imperial Opoponax (which smells amazing in
the vial – a basenote junkie's wet dream). The fine folks at LuckyScent threw in
a bunch more samples:
– Les Nereides Oriental Lumpur (this smells like fantastic Indian food)
– Les Nereides Fleur Poudree de Musc
– Les Nereides Musc de Java
– Florascent Mimosa
– Florascent Tango
Stellar service, as always!

From Nordies, bottle of Fred's Apple Cider shampoo and a Stila
Convertible Lipstick in Rosette Bloom.

A baby sling I ordered on eBay from a woman who handmakes them. It's
not directly fashion–related but it is a beautiful sling so I figured
I'd mention it – especially since it covers up the top–half of
anything I'm wearing when I use it LOL. For that reason, I figured I
might as well get one that's really pretty. It's tan linen with
little tan dragonflies embroidered all over it. Because the
embroidery is the same colour as the linen, it's very subtle.
Gorgeous and unlike any other sling I've seen anywhere.

Two days ago, the postman brought the new Garnet Hill catalog, a JJill

One is silvertone with blues, purples & green crystals and the other is a
goldtone with orange, purples and lt. blue crystals. Nothing spectacular
but they'll look OK from a distance and much better clumped together with
some real on tweeds. At any rate, I'm satisfied and can't bring myself to

Hey Miss K,
Sorry to take so long to reply. The DVF dress only showed up Wednesday.
The C Vaile dress has loads of fabric with good overlap/coverage of the
boobages. The fabric is very slinky and clingy, though, so the dress
pretty much demands perfect undergarments and a bloat–free day. Since
neither tends to be around just when I need them most, I will probably
send the dress back to NM.
The DVF dress is another matter altogether. It is cut quite close to the
body––the sleeves in particular have a high, tight '70s feel. Also,
there is simply not enough fabric overlap in the bodice. It is very
low–cut and I'd need to pin it shut to remain reliably decently clothed.
Also, I think my hourglass has a few too many minutes in the top and
bottom for me to wear leopard print––particularly silky low–cut leopard
print. A friend was visiting and I had her try it on. It looked
fantastic with her Italian coloring and 5' 4" 130 lb figure, so I gave
it to her.

FREE (well, I did have to include $3) black Playtex 'Feel Beautiful'
semi–demi bra, style 4425. It was one of those mail–in offers from
the store. Buy three (which were on sale, btw) send in completed form
and cash register receipt and receive by mail the same bra you had
just bought.
Beautiful bra, comfortable, AND excellent support!

Stila Foley's rodeo can from Ebay (actually yesterday)
Sept vogue (grrrrrr, my neighbor will be getting another double)

Lavender Denim & Co. brand new leggings from eBay. Wasn't too sure
about the color, but now that they've arrived, I love the color!
Better price off eBay than QVC, that's for sure.

my order from christabelles closet, a black juicy tee for 20 bucks.

A royal blue satin miracle bra!

I "outgrew" my favorite black bag, so seized the excuse to buy the black
Nine West Small Signs bag I've been coveting for a long time. It's
either a satchel, according to the Nine West web site, or a doctor–type
bag, according to shopnbc.com, where it's on clearance for half retail
price plus free shipping thanks to a Labor day special. I didn't
realize it has a wonderful red lining until it arrived today – love it!

Swap package:
Biolage The Conditioning Balm sample, 1 oz.
samples of Aquolina Pink Sugar & some unknown scent, will have to ask
what it is
blister packet of Mark tinted moisturizer in 05––looks way too dark
for me, might work for a friend
set of earplugs (my first reaction was: weird!, but hey, they may come
in handy)
I've been wanting to try the conditioning balm because I had success
with Suave's knockoff. I just hope it doesn't make my poor back break
out like the Suave stuff did.

The Firm Body Sculpting System 3 set
Amazon order with "Dress Your Family in Courduroy and Denim" and Paula
Beguon's Beauty Bible (2002 edition).
Half.com order of "Fashion Victim" by Michelle Lee.
Sept. issue of Atlanta magazine finally arrived. It's the fall fashion
issue. They have their usual stories on the top ten new boutiques, best
dressed lists (who, unfortunately, are all celebs) and some interesting fall
fashion spreads. If you like to shop in Atlanta like I do, this is a good
issue to pick up.
Samples from Paula's Choice: 2% BHA Solution, 1% BHA gel, Balancing
Cleanser, Moisturizing Gel and Non–greasy moisturizer.
Movies from Blockbuster.com rental service. I took the free trial, but I
think I may stick with this over Netflix. At least until the Netflix/Tivo
deal is done.

Annick Goutal Eau d'Hadrien 0.5 fl. oz. 15mL in nice display box from
an eBay auction. Very happy! My 3.3 oz bottle turned on me and
instead of drying down to a powdery finish it stayed with a very
strong musty lemon smell:( I've since learned that I should buy the
smaller size because I rarely wear perfume & it's a smaller investment
to lose if the bottle should go bad. I love how it dries down so I
can sniff it if I smell my wrist, but I don't exude it 10 ft around
me.

sounds like you're having the same kind of service I got
emails went unanswered, package still hadn't arrived after a month
I eventually called, got a nice man on the line who cancelled that order
and replaced it. We'll see if it actually gets here.
then, yesterday, I went to the leasing office where I live to pick up my
avon.com order, and they told me I'd had another package sitting there
for WEEKS. It turned out to be my CCB–Paris order. So, if the 2nd
package makes it, I'll be sending it back.

I'm getting steamed. I guess Monday I'll be calling, as my e–mail has so
far gone unanswered too. I don't have anywhere but the house for the
package to be delivered too.
Last time I ordered from the catalogue (with a check in the mail) and got my
order in what I'd call good time. This time I ordered online with my credit
card. What's taking so long – they're in GA and I'm in NC – lol.
I'll definitely post when it arrives.
