I don’t know if it’s the promise of coral blush and lipstick, or the adorable promo pics, but I am ridiculously excited about MAC’s upcoming Pret a Papier collection. In fashion, prêt-à -porter means ready-to-wear, clothing that is sold in finished form, with standard sizing (the opposite is bespoke [men] or haute couture [women], which is made-to-order).
Pret a Papier will be on counters April 22.
The collection will include:

I heard about it on Specktra. They heard about it from ChicProfile. And by some kind of voodoo magic Too Much Blush got her hands on Made to Order and Dressmaker, Dressmaker (omg!).
Hi Karla! The Chromagraphic Pencils are flesh toned pencils for the waterline, kinda like the Stila Kajal in Topaz!
Can’t wait for them!
Oooh! No wonder they’re in “skintones” — can’t wait to see!
*drool* this collection looks so amazing. i’m a sucker for coral makeup. i cannot wait.
I wish the packaging actually looked the way it does in the photo you posted. It’s so cute!
OMG! this collection looks cute! I like it!
I’m really excited about this collection! The colours are prefect for a redhead, and it’s coming for my birthday! Perfect excuse. Although I’ve been loving a little too much most of the other collections, too
Hi and thanks again for the link.
