What's the difference between these golden pinks?

There's something wrong with me. I love pinks and purples with gold sparkle and I am desperately trying to talk myself out of needing absolutely every single one.
I have: 9:59, Candid, Cashmere, Pink Twink, Pop.
I'm eyeing: Adventure, Cherry Blossom, Chestnut, Chills, Fete, Frills, Naughty, Nekkid, Plush, Purr, Thrills.
Are all of these MUST must haves or are some of them overly similar to others? I keep justifying it to myself that I'm trying out colors for the wedding but seriously, how many of the same colors can one gal possibly own? [Did I miss any?]

I have cherry blossom, plush and nekkid, and I don't think any of them are too similar to colours you have to buy. Cherry blossom is a gorgeous light pink shimmer, plush is kind of plummy, and nekkid is peachy. Crap colour descriptions, lol, but worth buying

You really NEED Plush and Purr... I'm sure of it

Okay so IMO Fete and 9:59 are interchangeable. Fete is SLIGHTLY more brown and less shimmery, however, they give basically the same effect on me.
Nekkid is quite warm. I can't compare it to the e/s you own, but it's got like a pinky-peachy thing going on.
Purrr is also quite warm. I found it too warm for my complexion (I'm very fair - see avatar) whereas I can wear Nekkid. IDK exactly how they are different because I gave Purr to someone else. I think Nekkid and Purrr are very similar though.
Chills is a cool/neutral pink, and is very light.
Frills is a beautiful brownish pink. I think I would recommend this as the "office version" of 9:59 and Fete. You definitely don't need Fete, 9:59, AND Frills, as they are quite similar... that being said, these are my three favorite colors... so if you LOVE 9:59 you might also want Fete and Frills.

Nekkid and Purr are indeed similar, but I find Nekkid warmer and more intense.
Interestingly, even though Zeebs's coloring is similar to mine, I love Purr and user it as an everyday shadow, almost as much as Boom. I avoid Nekkid unless I'm going for something dramatic: it makes my blue eyes pop a little too much, like I'm crying (not sure how to explain, but definitely not something I reach for too often).
Oh, and Plush is a must

I like wearing it along with Purr, Cabin Fever, 9:59 or even Pink Twink.
