Ooh love those blue eyes! I am not one to usually wear blue eye shadows but after seeing the looks at Nicole Miller’s fall fashion show I may have a change of heart. This show was all about dramatic blue eyes and makeup artist and seasoned pro James Kaliardos created them by using a gorgeous blue eye shadow and using a layering effect to create just the right amount of drama.
To get this smoky eye looking so good, he enlisted the help of MAC’s Marine Blue Ultra Paint Stick. For anyone who is not familiar with these little gems, they …read more

Thakoon Panichgul has been on a roll ever since Tilda Swinton wore one of his gowns to the Berlin Film festival. Since then, the journalist turned designer has been getting a lot of press and his dress worn by Michelle Obama at the Democratic Convention in late August has kept his already busy schedule even busier.
Needless to say the pressure was on as he presented his Fall collection to an audience that included White House social secretary Desirée Rogers and longtime supporter Amanda Peet. All nervousness aside the show was a hit with surprisingly safe and retail-friendly clothes that combined …read more

Celebrities made their way down the red carpet at Sunday’s Golden Globe Awards held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles. These ladies are living proof that you can certainly age fabulously. I don’t know where to begin. This is my favorite award show because not only do so many celebrities look great, but Hollywood is a buzzing! The look this year when it came to beauty was bold red lips, heavy eyeliner, lots of smoky eyes, and golden glows. My favorites of course were the ladies who went for the striking eyes.
Starting with Mary-Louise Parker, looking beautiful in …read more

I never made it to the Coach Factory store this week, as I had hoped. But I did place an order on the Coach site today and
drum roll please…

My purchase! The Coach Hamptons Weekend Patchwork Tote. It wasn’t even in my initial picks, but I saw someone carrying it last night, and I knew this bag was the one.
The best thing about my purchase, with the shipping and tax, I still didn’t have to add on any money to it, as my gift card covered the entire purchase. I even have a few bucks left for my next splurge. …read more

Forgive my rant here, but I must tell you something. I am a people watcher. A people critic. And I love to critique those that just think they are “all that” and then some!
Imagine the things I had to say to my walking buddy this afternoon when a 50-something lady with way too much makeup on, with way too much bleach in her hair, too much perfume, high heeled sneakers, and too short shorts breezed on by. Who did she think she was? Seriously. The only person that could nearly pull off this look would be Paris Hilton.
We need to …read more
