I'm back from one of the greatest places I ever visited. I left my heart there more than 20 years ago and I never understood until last week when I came back. New Orleans is the city for me!
Guess what I found in a Walgreens in the middle of the city? Check out the picture proof, one bottle of the elusive SH Opulent Cloud and one bottle of Borgheses Stellar Notte!
Here are the posh ones, MAC Brown Bag, Chanel Gondola, YSL Pink Moon and Estée Lauder Ultra Violet.
Assorted Sally Hansen, including the lovely Opulent Cloud.
Claire's polishes, both regular size and mini size. Some of them have flakes and are supposed to be scented when dry. I have no idea if that works, or the quality of the polishes. I just picked them up on a whim, there was a BOGO and I splurged. :-)
Last, the assorted suspects with the notorious Stellar Notte as the prominent star.
All in all a good haul considering I didn't have the time to get to a mall or even a Sephora. It feels good to be back with the kids, but I'll always have a piece of my heart in New Orleans!

Ooooohhhh... that's all I have to say.
SvaraRaderaOj, oj, oj... Wow! Wow igen! Vilken härlig skörd!
SvaraRaderaNinni and Sminkan,
SvaraRaderaWow, is the right word. I can tell you, I got a funny look at the cash register at both Claire's and Walgreens. Probably most customers don't walk out of there with more than 15 bottles of polish.. ;-D
I was on the verge of having to pay extra for heavy luggage at the air port too. Apparently, 50 lbs was maximum weight, and my bag shifted between 50 and 51. In the good old days, I would have packed it as carry on luggage but now I would surely have been stopped as a suspected terrorist if I had tried that. Times changes!
wonderful haul! The hello kitty nailpolishes look so adorable, I wish that I could find some of those. xo
SvaraRaderaWow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow!
SvaraRadera:)

SvaraRaderaCaitlin,
SvaraRaderaI found the Hello Kitty polishes at Claire's. My oldest daughter (soon to be 7) tried the lilac one on today. Very sweet and girly!

SvaraRaderaTruly, a great haul! I had so much fun in NO, I worked very hard every day but fortunately, no convention is going on into the night and the french quarters are open almost 24/7!
Oh my! I got a pocket full of Jazz music! I swear, I'm going back again someday!!
Nicole:
Yeah! Go to NO, try the Beignets, listen to the music and dance!
(and of course, haul some polish)
Audrey,
Right, we all know what is important here :-D
(I've got a tiny voodoo doll too, and if my boss gives me grief about my polish again, I know just what to do..)
You got all of these on one trip? Wow! I thought I had big shopping hauls, this is huge and GREAT!
SvaraRaderaJackie S,
SvaraRaderaIt is hard to restrain a polish junkie from europe when one is let loose at a Walgreens. We don't have those great pharmacies in Sweden, so I hauled :-D
Actually, I maxed my luggage weight on the plane ride back to the pound. One more polish and I had been forced to pay for extra heavy luggage! (phew, I was nervous there a second..)
