OPI Designer Series Fall 2008
i've just returned from my holiday and really enjoyed myself. hehe.. anyway, i'll be collecting the balance nail polish from the supplier this weekend. Just a littleee while more and you can get your new OPI real soon.
I'm still thinking if i should continue to order from the local supplier or try online stores like 8ty8beauty/head2toe ? Seems like there's always hiccups somewhere. Well, it's not easy to organise sprees especially if you have a day job as well. So far so good.. hehe.. thanks for all your support!
Anyway, spree #7 is coming soon! Probably will organise next week. Do keep a lookout and you can start to choose the colors first. hehe..

OPI spree #6 status updates
i've just collected the nail polish this evening. Unfortunately there were some hiccups with the orders. =(
Apparently, some of the colors were out of stock despite the supplier confirmed with me that stocks were available. sigh.. this was really unexpected and i sincerely apologise to those who were affected. I've already sent u and email which are the colors out of stock. *stress*
Well, i've given 3 options for u to choose:
1. Hold on to the nail polish first and dont mind waiting for the OOS colors to arrive. The goods will arrive approximately next week.*
2. mail those available first and when the OOS colors arrived, den send them balance over. no additional postage cost. If the next batch they still dont have the colors, u might want to change to other color?
3. mail those available ones and refund the balance
* pls take note that i'll be travelling on 21-26aug. I can only receive the new nail polishes after i come back from my trip. will try to collect asap and dispatch within 24hrs upon receiving it.
As for those who are not affected, i'll be posting out the items later today (sat).
I'm really sorry ladies for the inconvenience caused for the delays. I hope this will not affect your spreeing experience with me. If you have any other suggestions or options, feel free to talk to me. i'm open to feedbacks. i'll try my best to accomodate your requests.
time to sleep now after busying with the orders. nite!~

OPI spree #6 update
today i had a flea market at ang mo kio below a HDB for the national day celebration. Well, i've ordered some OPI to sell over there and the response is very poor! hai! luckily i didnt buy too many. hee... partly, the crowd over there are mainly elderly auntie and uncle. So they dont know what's OPI. I'll stick faithfully to my spree next time. Anyway, its a good experience.
OPI spree #6 current status:
i've got about 60% of the slots filled ( including msPinkie's/frm my MSN who has abt 10 bottles). I wanna end this spree quickly and sure you gals feel the same right? Cant wait to try the new colors? hehe.. ME TOO!! I'm aiming for F14 !!
Anyway, lately i think Yahoo email is having some problems. Apparently the emails are either missing or received 2-3 days later from the date sent. I also received a feedback that when she replied to my email, it got bounced. (my mailbox is not full). recently i've similar problem when i reply to someone's email too and it got bounced. When i check, the email add was different from the sender's email although i click REPLY. the email address shld be the same! How did it got changed? I tried a few times and the add keep showing the bounced email addy.
Just in case that you've sent me an email regarding your order or any enquiries which are not answered. Please check your sent folder and make sure the email is correct OR send to estie85@hotmail.com (which is also my msn, feel free to add me) I usually reply emails within 24hrs and i do scan through the bulk mail folder emails as well. So if u dont hear from me within 24 hrs, resent to another email and perhaps you can leave a msg in my CBOX to let me know.
Ladies, would appreciate if you could spread the words around and get your friends or colleagues to join in the spree so we can hit the target faster. Keep the orders coming!
Ciao~

New OPI La Collection de France Collection
OPI has come out with a new collection - OPI La Collection de France.
The French have a word for it - chic. A combination of style, elegance, and confidence, it is at the heart of fashion for FALL 2008. Filled with retro glamour, and touches of both uptown and down, the fall fashion runways featured simply beautiful clothing in a lush palette of color – complemented perfectly by the sophisticated, sensual shades of La Collection de France by OPI.
The effortless style for which French women are known – a juxtaposition of elegance and ease – is captured this fall in polished combinations of tweed and silk, chunky sweaters and delicate blouses, tailored pencil skirts and lingerie-inspired looks. Seasonless fabrics and layers signal a new fashion and climate, with an irresistible, intense selection of colors – saturated shades of purple-blue, peacock green, burgundy, ruby red, deep brown, and iconic black, accented with mustard yellow, burnt orange, and cobalt.
Exquisite nails continue to be an integral part of fashion. Nothing completes a look more beautifully than nails wearing the season’s most significant colors; changing a lacquer shade can change a woman’s entire look – and her outlook. While couture fashion may be reserved for the Paris salons, couture color for nails is accessible to every woman – and luxuriant color is what this season’s beauty is all about.
Nails wear rich earth and jewel tones – dark browns, chocolates, and caramels (We’ll Always Have Paris, I’m Fondue of Jacques!) warm terra cotta and cinnamon (Baguette Me Not), deep wines, purples, and aubergine (Eiffel for This Color, Louvre Me Louvre Me Not, Yes…I Can-Can!), glamorous reds and burgundy (A Oui Bit of Red, Bastile My Heart), creamy nudes (Tickle My France-y), and precious grey-violet (Parlez-vous OPI?). A shimmery or smoky eye, deep-colored lip, and subtle cheek round out of the look.
Couture color for a beautiful fashion season. Yours for the wearing – in La Collection de France by OPI.
