Oscar de la Renta Ready to Wear Kaleidoscope Swatches +

I finally mustered the courage to swatch my kaleidoscope, and good lord it's so beautiful. That red is seriously going to be my go to shade for this fall.

Being in New York, I see and sometimes meet famous people from time to time, but never have I been humbled by how grounded and down to earth someone is until I met Oscar himself. There's something to be said about how nice and relaxing someone sounds, plus him saying it's a pleasure to sign my kaleidoscope in Spanish. It was a little moment that made me smile.

and random aside: Anna Wintour showed up at the Le Metier de Beaute counter. Can we also say Dustin looked so hot !?!? :D Thanks Dustin for saying that I looked good. :) Wearing a skirt was definitely a bit awkward. lol.

ok onto the swatches:

L to R: Red Chiffon, Champagne Silk, Teal Weed, and Pink Suede (flash)

    Oh my!!! That is beyond gorgeous! At first I was thinking the eyeshadows looked just "OK" but they are fabulous. And that red ....oh that red!!! I think I'm crying inside over not having this. I should have figured it out but I was too nervous to preorder having zero idea what was in the kaleidoscope...eyes? lips? face? combo? I'm having a little stomp feet pity party in my head right now!

    I know right?!? The red lipcolor is the star!!

    As for the kaleidoscope itself: you would have to call the Oscar de la Renta boutique to see if there are any left: 212-288-5810

    i'm glad you said hi now @ Dain. thank you for liking my taste in makeup. :)

    it's funny you mention about my specific taste; I was asked by some makeup artist friends to blog because they always loved what I would purchase. lol.

    So you definitely have good taste if you like what I like, since Makeup Artists like it too :)
