Hoodies in all Shapes and SizesI may be treading into controversial territory due to a tragic event in Florida that took place recently, but I’ve always loved hoodies.
There are many reasons why hoodies are so popular.
They’re easy to wear (who doesn’t love a relaxed fit), capture the latest trends, and can effortlessly work with any wardrobe.
Of course, if you want to wear a hoodie to express your views, that’s fine too.
Mod-Inspired Makeup Using PastelsFans of Mad Men, who caught the Season 5 premiere, may have noticed that the lady-like fashion of the earlier seasons has now moved on to the brash Mod look of the Swinging Sixties.
Style icons of the era, like model Twiggy, also incorporated the Mod look into their makeup.
You can create a Mod look using this season’s pastels to highlight your eyes, lips, or nails.
Courtesy of the Red, White and BlueAre you a fan of Barack Obama and love to wear nail polish?
If so, you may want to help the cause by picking up the Runway To Win nail set including red, white, and blue nail lacquer.
The nail polish line, which cost the campaign $10,000 to put together, was designed by Richard Blanch of Le Métier de Beauté for the campaign’s Runway to Win collection.
Versatile Eye Pencil for Precise Color DefinitionSo far, it looks like 2012 is all about lips with the wide range of lip products on the market including everything from lip stains to lip sheers.
Whether you choose light or heavy lip coverage, you want to balance your eye makeup so that it sets the right tone.
Clinique Quickliner for Eyes Intense features richly pigmented color with an effortless glide‑on application without skipping, tugging, or dragging on lids.
The eye liner pencil has a soft, creamy texture like liquid liner and requires no sharpening. In a single stroke, you get non-fading, long-wearing color that lasts up to 12 hours.
Major Volume and LengthBy now, we’re all familiar with the dramatic look that smoky eyes create.
If you want to take it one step further, there is a way.
Smoky Lash from Make Up For Ever is an ultra‑pigmented mascara designed to enhance the volume, length, and curl of your lashes.
The wide, dense brush of this mascara penetrates into the roots of your lashes to ensure that each lash is completely coated with mascara. The result is dark and defined lashes that don’t look fake.
Long-Wearing Color Plus a Glossy TopcoatIf you’re tired of your favorite lip color doing a disappearing act, it’s time to check out the staying power of lip stains.
I admit that I’ve been a reluctant believer. However, a lip stain that combines that best of both worlds (color that you can count on plus gloss to finish the look) has me changing my mind.
The Skinn Tint & Shine lip stain and gloss duo features a matte, long-lasting stain on one side. On the other side of the tube, you get a complementary shade of lip gloss that locks in the stain with just the right amount of shine.
New Additions to the SoftShades CollectionIf Shrek can inspire a nail polish collection, shades reminiscent of the New York City Ballet is even less of a reach.
Seriously, the colors of the New York City Ballet are so appealing that OPI is launching a SoftShades colors collection next month including five sheer, neutral shades and one silver sparkle shade.
According to Suzi Weiss‑Fischmann, OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director, the NYCB is rich with artistic history. “The dancers, choreography and costumes provided a wealth of inspiration for a range of soft, feminine hues. The beige, pink, and white lacquers bring to mind classic ballet slippers, tutus and leotards, while the sheer lilac and gray add muted color to ballet’s traditional pink.”
Luck Me Chanel Makeup TonightTo celebrate the opening of a new Las Vegas boutique, Chanel recently launched a limited edition beauty collection named after Sin City.
The Las Vegas de Chanel collection includes four glitchy pieces, which you can wear in your home city (if you don’t get to Las Vegas too often).
The Lucky Stripes Iridescent Powder for eyes and cheeks is the focal point of the collection and it looks like a winner! The powder is a blend of sand and bronze shades embossed with stars that have been inspired by the desert of Nevada.
