Makeup Brand Review time! Over the last 14 months or so I have been steadily collecting NYX makeup. Now, many of you have probably seen NYX in your local ULTA or some drugstores which carry it. Often times, because of the low price we tend to overlook it and think that purchasing department store brand makeup or designer makeup will more better or more pigmented. I am happy to announce that NYX should be a high-end brand. As you can see I have a small collection of their items, I'm still steadily collecting it =D<br />
<br />
So I wanted to review some of the items I've tried and see if this might sway your thought on certain products.<br />
<br />
The prices listed are for <a href="http://www.cherryculture.com/">Cherry Culture</a>. I believe the prices vary where you get them. <br />

<b>Eyeshadow Trios</b> <i>$5.50</i><br />
I have about 5 of these and I have to say that I love them! They are highly pigmented and if you're feeling crafty you can depot these and they fit perfectly into your MAC palettes.There's like over 30 different trios to choose from!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik_momHQqg-o0lmoljBoE4G9z7woPr18DHWTNBCcKVZ2i-Z__riLK4Tj_9ptohY0D5PN2eQgNfy94Yz5z33NLYNFRS2LAB8nAxG87E2X902Jz39k4Xl6h_18TYKH-_LIejf4G_JGqCcl0/s1600/d_13516.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEik_momHQqg-o0lmoljBoE4G9z7woPr18DHWTNBCcKVZ2i-Z__riLK4Tj_9ptohY0D5PN2eQgNfy94Yz5z33NLYNFRS2LAB8nAxG87E2X902Jz39k4Xl6h_18TYKH-_LIejf4G_JGqCcl0/s200/d_13516.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><b>Single Eyeshadows</b> <i>$3.50</i><br />
There's TONS of different colors and many are really good dupes for MAC colors. I actually prefer their matte Black to MAC's carbon, it's SUPER pigmented and wonderful. You can get like 3 colors for the price of one MAC shadow. You can't beat that!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkKw6141UxgHFmyLI3m2rCLYEkA3pGV29X6WyTElRDlPR7eD4LPZ-8ps1LXdbkVi0XAnlKC-ublFuYKbB_6Y49PT6NunbrhgYIltbiFQNGUEfZANIqh49C204JICQl1W86KVnozroO104/s1600/d_9289.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkKw6141UxgHFmyLI3m2rCLYEkA3pGV29X6WyTElRDlPR7eD4LPZ-8ps1LXdbkVi0XAnlKC-ublFuYKbB_6Y49PT6NunbrhgYIltbiFQNGUEfZANIqh49C204JICQl1W86KVnozroO104/s200/d_9289.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><b>10 Color Palettes</b> <i>$8.00</i><br />
I have two of these and I love them, they're perfect for travel all the shadows are very pigmented and there's like 10 different palettes to choose from. They mix in mattes with satins and shimmers so it's not like Urban Decay that all you get is shimmers. Plus, when you calculate the price you're paying per shadow it's like $.80 each!<br />
<br />

<b>Jumbo Eye Pencils</b><i> $3.25</i><br />
I simply love these! I have 4 of them and I am aching to get more. I use these as a base for the shadows, they're creamy and with a primer that shadow goes no where. If you're going to invest in just one, get the Milk one. The wide base is perfect not only for the eyeshadows but it makes for a great under eye highlighter.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeEkV0bIefRKqhEwZL0DmRcom05_N2XxXdLXG61NLpBK2KPSAeIv8aRI7kQ4mVkKf2E9Whh9S9Sg0PTXEMlH7AWZkgOyMT_VZhegAluYdkhOY5ABt8tTUl-eXtpjoG1H2usr5Ekitj6sI/s1600/d_7035.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeEkV0bIefRKqhEwZL0DmRcom05_N2XxXdLXG61NLpBK2KPSAeIv8aRI7kQ4mVkKf2E9Whh9S9Sg0PTXEMlH7AWZkgOyMT_VZhegAluYdkhOY5ABt8tTUl-eXtpjoG1H2usr5Ekitj6sI/s200/d_7035.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><b>Slim Eye Pencils</b> <i>$2.50</i><br />
Unfortunately I can't say great things about this liner. I'm not fond of them and I've tried 3 different colors. I find that they're not smooth. they thug at my eye and they're not pigmented. So I'd say put your $2.50 towards something else.<br />

<span align="justify"><b>Ultra Pearl Mania </b><i>$1.50</i></span><br />
<span align="justify">I have this in a few colors and they're great. They're small little things which you have you use a base with or a primer but using the right base they're very pigmented and fun. They'll great a great metallic look used in the right way.</span><br />

<span align="justify">For a couple of bucks this is the best lipstick in the market. All the ones I've tried have been super pigmented, smooth, creamy and so awesome all around. I have about 7 or 8 of them. My favorite color is B52 but I also LOVE Chloe. Some of these are MAC dupes so you can't beat the price, the quality of them!</span><br />

I'm trying to do these once a month because there's so many awesome bloggers out there that need some recognition. My all time favorite for different, bold attire is hands down, Karla. <a href="http://karlascloset.blogspot.com/">Karla's Closet</a> is a little obsession me and my best friend Alex have. In preparation for a thrift shop search we pour over Karla's pictures to find inspiration so when we find this quirky floral dress circa 1985, we pause and consider: WWKD? Well, I'll tell you what Karla would do; she would dish out the $3.25 for it, have it tailored and fitted. Then wear it with a pair of posh in season sky-high heels and a blazer to look absolutely fabulous and feminine!<br />
<br />
Karla has a distinct 1980's high fashion sense and then she updates with with a new Marc Jacobs bag or a pair of new Mui Mui shoes which is what makes it fresh and exciting. Is it possible to do on a small budget? Yes and yes.<br />
<br />
This is how: thrift shopping hardly cuts in the budget, you can get a bunch of pieces for $30. Then you save the rest of your $$ for a pair of high-end shoes to make the looks updated and contemporary. Another thing is that you should start searching for a tailor. Tailoring of antique or old pieces is <b>essential</b>. Very seldom do they fit like a glove. So if you find yourself someone who would tailor your clothes you've got yourself a set up. Another option is, of course, to learn how to sew yourself. It can be a crafty thing to know. Can you imagine finding a pair of vintage Calvin Klein jeans and being able to look at them and say "I can turn these into a great pair of skinny jeans." You can't beat that!<br />
<br />
So here are her looks, plus honestly does she have the most awesome legs and haircut or what??<br />

I am a very girly girl. I dont like sports (I do enjoy both baseball and soccer players), I love Masterpiece Theater, I love makeup, I love pinks and purples and I will be found listening to classical music.<br />

Without further ado, shameless picspam.<br />

I can't promise I will update daily but I will try to keep it going :)<br />
<br />
Now... I wanted to write about something I've really been feeling lately. LUSH.<br />
<br />
Now, I know LUSH it's really either hit or miss with people. Many people LOVE it and live for it, others dont and many others think it's too expensive.<br />
<br />
I have to admit that I really enjoy some of their products and some are just really not my thing.<br />
<br />
So I wanted to make a collection of things I've tried, give a mini-review in case you're considering where to start with it.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><b>Bath Melt: Happy Blooming</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">How it works: You use one of the three blocks as an additive to bubble bar or a bath bomb. It's supposed to leave your skin seriously moisterized.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">My thoughts: The sad thing in life is that I dont have a bathtub in my apartment. I only have a shower, which is fine because I'm because I'm a shower-girl. But every once in a while I'll ache for a bath so this is where my work travels come in handy. I take my goodies with me and I soak at the Marriott. Works out great for me since I dont have to clean the tub :) I really love this product, it smells amazing, like exotic fruits and normally I'm anti-fruit smells. I like muskier deeper scents or floral tones but this leaves my skin so smooth that I end up loving it.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">How it works: You split a small piece from the jello and smush it into your loofa, it'll create bubbles and clean you up!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">My thoughts: It's a clean lemony-scent which I'm all for in the mornings because the scent wakes me up and if you follow me on twitter you know I constantly complain about being tired in the morning so to shake sleep off this things helps out a lot. My annoyance is the ripping of the jello. I think I should just cut it up in squares in order to make it easier.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">How it works: You take a piece of this roll and wash your face with it.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">My thoughts: I hate this with the passion of a thousand suns. It smells like lamb marinade to me. However... my mother LOVES it. I bought like $10 worth of this to test it and ended up detesting it so I gave it to my mom and she does nothing but rave about it and how much better her skin feels. She loved it so much I got her a huge chunk some weeks ago and it made her very happy. So I think you either love it or hate it.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">How it works: You take a piece of this roll and wash your face with it</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">My thoughts: I have a strange relationship with Herbalism. We're not friends... we're more of acquaintances. You dig? I guess I'm an old fashioned girl who likes her facial soaps to have suds so I have trouble falling in love with this. The scent is... alright, I guess. I have a tub of it that I got in a swap and I will use it but I'm not sure if I will re-purchase it.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">How it works: Like a bar of soap, you make little suds in your wet hands and wash your face with it</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">My thoughts: Out of all the cleansers I've tried from LUSH this is my favorite... and I still dont think it's perfect because it doesn't remove my makeup. But if it did I would <b>love </b>it. I love the scent, it's not offensive or anything and the concept is much more traditional which I like. I think I would buy again... I think.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">How it works: I'm still not sure.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">My thoughts: I really want to re-name this to "what the fuck face". I was excited to get a bar of soap so what do I do? I run it under water to make suds and get my makeup off. Yeah. Bad idea. It became a pasty, Vaseline-like mess in my hands and eye. It was not pretty. Later I find out I used it all wrong but by then I hated it and it was sent to permanent time-out in the corner of my vanity. I will most likely be swapping it.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

How it works: Like your grandmother's cold cream, you gently work it into your eye and then wipe it off with baby wipes.<br />
<br />
My thoughts: I'm pretty sure I've raved about this before. But seriously: BEST STUFF EVER. I'm on my second tub, I love it so much, removes all my makeup, it's a bit complicated but when a girl is wearing 3 coats of Diorshow Mascara in Carbon Black life is already at complicated. We deal with it.<br />
<br />

How it works: A chunk of this apparently conditions your hair<br />
<br />
My thoughts: I came to the conclusion that the reason this is named 'Jungle' is because George of the Jungle used it to condition his dreads. Now, I tried it. Twice. And I had not had anything leave my hair as nappy and dry since the great Dove disaster of 2004. It was not a good thing. The great Dove disaster of 2004 came when I compulsively bought a Dove conditioner (dont ask me which one, I have deemed all Dove products hazardous to my health) and used it and it dried my hair out so badly that I had to soak it in beer to rejuvenate it. This kind of shit can mess up a girl. So I had the similar reaction to this "jungle conditioner". Unless I want to emulate an extra from a Tarzan flick or begin anew a "Boho chic" look I plan to stay as far away from this as possible. Bad little green block. Bad.<br />

How it works: No one knows<br />
<br />
My thoughts: I think I'm being too negative. I didn't like it. It didn't work for me. Ewww. <br />
<br />

How it works: It's a toner. How else is it supposed to work?<br />
<br />
My thoughts: I love it, I spray a bit in a cotton ball and use it on my face once a day after washing it, it's not drying or harsh and it's a lovely tingly feeling.<br />
<br />

How it works: It's a soap bar.<br />
<br />
My thoughts: I like this product. It works excellent. I dont like the smell. Makes me feel like a walking laffy-taffy bar. It's not good. But I like what it does for the skin.<br />

How it works: You drop it in the water and it makes soothing bubbles.<br />
<br />
My thoughts: This stuff is delightful. I love it. Yes, it smells kinda like cherry but I love playing with it. I have a couple I need to use when I go on my next trip.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
As you can see, it's either hit or miss. I love some things, like others and plain old hate some of them. Now, I have plenty more to try. I got the 'naked' pack this week when I went and I want to try more stuff.<br />
<br />
The thing about LUSH stores is that they have the nicest people working there. They get all excited about a bar of soap and because they seem to love it so much you think to yourself "OMFG, I NEED THIS ASAP." when you really dont and when you make it home (after hiding the bags from a suspecting significant other) you're like "WOW... I got a $15 bar of soap. <i>Excellent</i>, B." But you can't take it back because I would hate to see their disappointed face taking back the soap. So it becomes a vicious cycle.<br />
<br />

My favorite has to be their sudden love for all things white. White blazers, pants, skirts etc. My friend and I agreed that we have to enjoy the white while we can, it looks awesome with our nauticals and it looks even better with corals, which our closet seems to be dominated with at the moment. And what better way to use your new MAC's At the Beach makeup than with white?<br />
<br />

It's part of the Prepster collection that came out last year :)Isabellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17300888241640142995noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119414322234226490.post-92040085969765776732010-05-14T12:03:00.000-04:002010-05-14T12:03:24.544-04:00Blog Pimping: SamFirst of all let me apologize for being a lame blogger this week, I have been completely MIA, I know it and I feel really bad about it. So I'm working to find myself back into your good graces :)<br />
<br />
And thus I bring you - a Blog Love moment! I haven't done one in the longest time so I figure I'd expose you to Sam @ <a href="http://dailyfashionboost.blogspot.com/">Daily Fashion Boost</a> who is just about as adorable as someone can get. I think she looks like a perfect little porcelain doll, her dresses are feminine and stylish. Every time I go to her blog I feel like there should be a music box playing in the background :)<br />
<br />
I hope you enjoy her!<br />

Love her? Want to dress like Sam? Or get inspired by her?<br />
<br />
She does a lot of florals, hair accessories, tights, mary jane shoes, statement necklaces and anything that just feel Victorian-inspired.<br />

Congratulations, guys, I do hope you enjoy all the pigments! I have sent you emails and will need your address :)<br />
<br />
I am sorry I have been dead lately here, I've been dead lately online overall mostly because real life gets in the way. So I hope to have a few posts this week for you and that you enjoy them :)Isabellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17300888241640142995noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119414322234226490.post-17947164293062733112010-05-02T12:09:00.000-04:002010-05-02T12:09:06.016-04:00Review: LORAC's Little Black PaletteOk, product review time! :)<br />
<br />
My relationship with Lorac has been limited. By limited I mean my love for it limits itself to one product and one product only. The brow liner. And that's it. I, for the most part, am not convinced with their product or the pricing of their product. So I usually skip over Lorac when in Ulta or Sephora. Yet this week while I was browsing the kits and palettes that ULTA had for viewing I found this little thing here:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://a248.g.akamai.net/7/248/8278/20100409030205/www.sephora.com/assets/dyn/product/P261912/P261912_hero.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://a248.g.akamai.net/7/248/8278/20100409030205/www.sephora.com/assets/dyn/product/P261912/P261912_hero.jpg" /></a></div>The kit retails for $32 and it includes four pretty large baked shadows and a sample of their eye primer. The packaging drew me in and since I was testing everything else I figured I'd test this. I was surprised... no, SHOCKED that these shadows were not only super pigmented but they were creamy and fantastic. I had to swatch all of them all over the back of my hand much to the sales girl's distress. I didn't even notice the primer, honestly, I was so excited about the shadows. I calculated the price per shadow and it comes to $8 a shadow. I pay <i>almost</i> twice for a MAC one. So I decided to set aside my issues with LORAC and buy the palette. After sneaking it inside the apartment (since I'm supposed to have started a new makeup fast) so the bf wouldn't see it, I happily started playing with it.<br />
<br />
I took some pictures of my journey....<br />

As you can see, these colors are just gorgeous. So gorgeous I decided to swatch them:<br />

These shadows are so creamy and "blendable" that I had to imediatelly do a look with them:<br />

See? SO in love with it! Now, let us talk the primer. I used the primer for the look above.<br />
<br />
One, I LOVE the squeeze bottle. If you were to purchase the primer on its own it's $20 but it's a squeeze tube. Two dollars more than Urban Decay and you dont have to get all Medieval on the bottle afterward. <br />
<br />
Two, I love how rich it is. It's richer than Urban Decay which means I need less.<br />
<br />
Three, holds pigment. I did the swatches and the look with the primer and it really pops the shadow.<br />
<br />
I have not used it all day to see how it does with creasing but I'm not a good judge of that since I dont have oily lids at all and most primers work for me. But I'm taking my kit with me to Seattle and I plan to testing that baby this week.<br />
<br />
Overall? I think it's fab for $32. All four shadows are simply divine, I still refuse to believe this product came from Lorac. Either they've stepped it up or the box and items are mislabeled ;)<br />

Yup! This time I'm having 2 winners! In the past year I have collected an obscene amount of mineral eyeshadows and pigments. OBSCENE. So I'm giving away 50, yes 50 sample baggies 50 different colors. The amount is enough for about 2-3 eye looks. So multiply that times 50 and you've got a lot of effing eye make-up!<br />

I think the reason I admire Carolina so much is because she reminds me of my grandmother and this I mean as a compliment. My grandmother and even my grandmother dress/ed a lot like her. Everything fitted, well done, carried herself with an air of distinction and civility. Like Carolina, my grandmother has staples in her wardrobe. Carolina is known for her tailor crisp white blouse. I'm sure she owns hundreds and hundreds of them and they just make anything she wears that much more fabulous.<br />
<br />
She always keeps her feminine distinctions and you can clearly tell she's the real HBIC. It feels lovely to have a Latina have so much influence and recognition in fashion. To be honest she's the typical woman in my family; elegant and poised but she means business and she can design like it's nobody's business. To me, she's a modern Coco Channel, a living embodiment of her brand and an inspiration. I need to look and act like her when I'm her age.<br />

I have not been asked to do this nor have I have I been sent any of the merchandise.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i> </i></span> <br />
Loving Gossip Girl blatantly for the fashion and then for everything else I was excited to see what Eric Damon (the show's designer) was going to create for the girl's looks in this line. I saw the dresses this morning (the entire collection is dresses, if I'm not mistaken) and I've got some thoughts.<br />
<br />
Overall, I'm honestly not impressed with the collection. For starters, though I am a fan of black myself, I feel there's too much black for this collection that is launching as Summer quickly approaches us and people are looking for more color than anything else. With the exception of one of Blair's dresses all others are either all black or have black detail Secondly, I'm not sold on these really fitting the character's personality that much. Now, I understand that all this has to be toned down for it to reflect a 'wearable' adaptation of the show so I will let that one slide.<br />
<br />
Let us begin with <i><b>Serena</b></i>:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkptWTT40XcPbN-p0Fwx1cFT4kEwFGhOpcnnHCknLDz21spdVT4-FSxzsLfDBcbhVfiRuKQ0sDe1V5Eui9XZuai76LrxgrIPwe3S_Xa8ZyP1IprAG9BFmn-68wCRhKHwMLlJD7d0jB17o/s1600/Serena1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkptWTT40XcPbN-p0Fwx1cFT4kEwFGhOpcnnHCknLDz21spdVT4-FSxzsLfDBcbhVfiRuKQ0sDe1V5Eui9XZuai76LrxgrIPwe3S_Xa8ZyP1IprAG9BFmn-68wCRhKHwMLlJD7d0jB17o/s320/Serena1.jpg" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCEgHGgREUq1kwic5T9H6K5eUNnyOMstuuQkD7KZeU48LwMDXS59ckuT8AimzjzSl7fl45wCsyLOYvG7r5f94s-JLJXl9zA6czI1yyp5l3bCElquUnDmQG9EYG0T1dzxKJa9mn37eEGAw/s1600/Serena2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCEgHGgREUq1kwic5T9H6K5eUNnyOMstuuQkD7KZeU48LwMDXS59ckuT8AimzjzSl7fl45wCsyLOYvG7r5f94s-JLJXl9zA6czI1yyp5l3bCElquUnDmQG9EYG0T1dzxKJa9mn37eEGAw/s320/Serena2.jpg" /></a></div>I think the first dress fits her character to the T. However, I'm not convinced about the second one, at all. The first one is a reincarnation of the ever so popular "bandage" dress by Herve Lager. Though it suits S I honestly feel it now feels dated; this is something I would've been excited about a year ago. Does this make sense? I'm also afraid of the many people who shouldn't wear this dress who will happily stuff themselves into it. I can't say much about the second one, mostly because I've seen similar things in Ross. And I have to say that Serena wears a lot more color than this, even her formal dresses tend to be nude-hues or blues.<br />
<br />
The <i><b>Blair </b></i>look:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqoLH5v7YfywohN7friyEmiw3tqzXQ5eAKuuChyM7gfm_BWGxJZdfTYEPP9_y3_Fx91n-KtHitQ_Is_oN03OQ7UgWsGpjysFauoR_WUEh1Kke218sCCiQ3PxF2LazKYIO4A5dEOJs-SN4/s1600/Blair1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqoLH5v7YfywohN7friyEmiw3tqzXQ5eAKuuChyM7gfm_BWGxJZdfTYEPP9_y3_Fx91n-KtHitQ_Is_oN03OQ7UgWsGpjysFauoR_WUEh1Kke218sCCiQ3PxF2LazKYIO4A5dEOJs-SN4/s320/Blair1.jpg" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyAhAqunhqlQ0hlC3iuEk-jNGpxqJKMHc1gDFEqYRwiZbQBo8adIsDzGEitllQQPB5eRzEF49wWbEIElpQG0SHEGBq9XpbwTlRLYLGjiNnm6QpEbxyWwoufptT0jn_q1vRPmjtfTvLjVU/s1600/Blair2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyAhAqunhqlQ0hlC3iuEk-jNGpxqJKMHc1gDFEqYRwiZbQBo8adIsDzGEitllQQPB5eRzEF49wWbEIElpQG0SHEGBq9XpbwTlRLYLGjiNnm6QpEbxyWwoufptT0jn_q1vRPmjtfTvLjVU/s320/Blair2.jpg" /></a></div>The first dress is very similar to something my Blair would wear, the floral is lovely and very summery. The Blair looks look more like Spring/Summer to me than all the other girls. I think the colors chosen are fun and bright and happy. Let us talk about this second dress. While I admit it's just adorable and dainty I'm pretty sure this is more of a Jenny-style circa Season 1 (before the black eyeliner) and I'm also pretty sure I've seen this exact same dress in Project Runway, I think Season 3. To me Blair often looks a lot more like a 40's screen siren than anything and though dress #1 is lovely I dont think it's a good representation of her character. Blair is the Queen B and to me these lack the 'presence' her show attire reflect, that Upper East Side bitchy-princess is lacking in the translation. <br />
<br />
On to <i><b>Jenny</b></i><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh9B39rTr2yTQOEv4O_FqKtLKwkdwKCGOb8Q6AcmZW9WYrbmzQwyesNrdB-K8xYViCboQJQQauD49qy1YEXAOgI5xocom9gVQXvzI8yLo3078o_VO0ylEiKlaUnutzuCqyKznpclZX_7E/s1600/Jenny1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh9B39rTr2yTQOEv4O_FqKtLKwkdwKCGOb8Q6AcmZW9WYrbmzQwyesNrdB-K8xYViCboQJQQauD49qy1YEXAOgI5xocom9gVQXvzI8yLo3078o_VO0ylEiKlaUnutzuCqyKznpclZX_7E/s320/Jenny1.jpg" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEUl8DjRoVLkSORSFfwIvL5iwK8c1CKM7g5pYtHk47Go5zzfsvxkZtbkykjFZcwfRX-3kaydCixb7sXR_R__In5EAXf4SjhIcWslexa0GJJhYA3U9aLhaFTRZIDOjzAiA45RI8fU0D3_A/s1600/Jenny2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEUl8DjRoVLkSORSFfwIvL5iwK8c1CKM7g5pYtHk47Go5zzfsvxkZtbkykjFZcwfRX-3kaydCixb7sXR_R__In5EAXf4SjhIcWslexa0GJJhYA3U9aLhaFTRZIDOjzAiA45RI8fU0D3_A/s320/Jenny2.jpg" /></a></div>I think the looks fit adequately her punk-rock chick look. I actually adore the first dress, it's my favorite of the entire collection. I love the lace and the tier detail and I would totally wear it... IN THE WINTER. Sorry. I would wear it with some tights and booties and hot pink polish but definitely not something I would get during this time of year. I've got no comment on the second dress, it's just not my style at all.<br />
<br />
and finally <i><b>Vannesa </b></i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQDdgQCrTQYbCIyNetyMc7GTess8j9nK0oXzN9SlaYUUXZ0G5-JYTWx7Ev8vKBzCXe-oa5JTD2L6Wj_9S-tlau8Dd27UyXVlO3Bnw0b39fTj_qb4fBRLTsWn5j0wUfLoa0duZ4E_2gRLQ/s1600/Vanessa1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQDdgQCrTQYbCIyNetyMc7GTess8j9nK0oXzN9SlaYUUXZ0G5-JYTWx7Ev8vKBzCXe-oa5JTD2L6Wj_9S-tlau8Dd27UyXVlO3Bnw0b39fTj_qb4fBRLTsWn5j0wUfLoa0duZ4E_2gRLQ/s320/Vanessa1.jpg" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyTy8JprvpNFWq0EGSzrw5h2gWELpHd59jBYak5gp0iiC8kgbLpAbTRCkQiCe5TfARCN5PVvfHqbVBCrSi8cN1bM6xpnoAxogKyiHSfJbxWyrRBIVwUX-WlsT04yeRPommmW6ygwEtCgc/s1600/Vanessa2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyTy8JprvpNFWq0EGSzrw5h2gWELpHd59jBYak5gp0iiC8kgbLpAbTRCkQiCe5TfARCN5PVvfHqbVBCrSi8cN1bM6xpnoAxogKyiHSfJbxWyrRBIVwUX-WlsT04yeRPommmW6ygwEtCgc/s320/Vanessa2.jpg" /></a></div>I dont think I mention enough how much I dont like animal print. So that settles my thoughts on the first dress, it is something Vanessa would wear though. The second dress is better but again not something I'm impressed with, I've seen similar ones in Ross or Forever 21. Though these are things she would wear if I'm not mistaken Vanessa wears a lot more color than this; perhaps some purple or yellow in there?<br />
<br />
<b>Over all</b>, these are OK dresses, I dont think they're anything particularly special and MUST HAVES. I think that Anne Sui had more interesting designs for the Target line and even fit their characters more. I have to say I'm disappointed, I really love Eric Damon, he seems like a sweetheart and I've loved the designs he's created for the girls on the show. Like the dress he made for Jenny in the season 2 premiere was gorgeous. So a bit of a let down but oh well, what can a girl do?<br />

Your thoughts on the collection?Isabellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17300888241640142995noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119414322234226490.post-86947914610826948232010-04-26T10:26:00.000-04:002010-04-26T10:26:55.826-04:00Fashion Icon: Faye DunawayTo say that Faye Dunaway was a fashion icon of her own is an understatement.Faye defined an entire generation; she represented a changing era. She came into films at the end of the 60's and she contradicted the trend of the 'hippy' girl which commandeered that era. To me, she represented what a lot of the 80's and late 70's would look like and she rocked it like no other. She had a fondness for nudes, hats and strong women. What's not to admire?<br />

I choose three roles of her which I just love and to be honest, making this post has made me want to have a Faye Dunaway movie marathon. <br />
<br />
The most famous one, Bonnie look with loads of hats, pencil skirts, form-fitting sweaters and the fabulous bob. <br />

The Network look, mid-70's. Tons of nudes, blouses and scarves with soft waves in the hair.<br />

And my personal favorite, The Thomas Crown Affair role. Optimal rich-girl look with over the top hats, gloves, classy chignons and mini-skirts and jaw-dropping backless dresses.<br />

My grandmother, however, always loved the navy and white combination and had loads of purses and shoes with this theme. I'm ashamed that I didn't know better than to treasure these things. Now I look at these nauticals with new eyes. I actually love them! I'm sure everyone is building plans of what to do for the summer even if it's a short 3 day trip somewhere sunny, hot and fun. I always hit my favorite Florida beach for a long weekend in the Summer and one has to pack accordingly.<br />
<br />
The good thing is that nauticals are very easy to find this season and all you really need is one piece to pump up an outfit. A little Nautical goes a LONG way.<br />

So can you be surprised that my favorite trend is the statement skirt? I love a lovely bold skirt and when you find a good bold skirt, it'll be in style year after year, you just pair it up with different accessories and it's instantly updated. You can find a Statement Skirt nearly anywhere these days, I found some lovely ones online. The great thing about this type of skirt is that paired with some flats it can be a perfect Sunday morning, stroll in the farmer's market ensemble. Paired with strappy, sparkly heels it's perfect for a party. :)<br />

There's just something lovely about strutting with bare legs and a happy skirt around your legs, puts you right into the Spring feel.<br />

Oh Reese! I think all of us have some sort of a childhood memory of Reese. For some it may be 'Man on the Moon' for others something like 'Cruel Intentions' but despite which film role made us love her we all have to admit that the girl has style. For me it was 'Far and Away' a small Disney film that never made it far but I still remember watching her in it, little did I know that I would come to love the way she carried herself and the way she dressed.<br />
<br />
The busy lady, mother of two with seventeen careers has won one word for me: polished. Reese does NOT hit the red carpet unless she looks absolutely stunning. Like Michelle Obama type of stunning. Though she prefers a more laid back look in her everyday life and if you catch her on her work out days you'd argue with me but for the most part you've got to tip your hat to her. She looks to be very involved with her kids and her career and she can still pull a pair of skinny jeans with flats and huge sunglasses and rock it.<br />

I have a thing about lashes. I just love all sorts of mascaras, I've put more gunk in my eye than it's usually recommended. So I figured I'd share my <b>top 8</b> favorite mascaras of all time.<br />

I know this is like a cult favorite but in case you've never tried it - try it. I really dont understand what you're waiting for.I love this so much I have it in a few 'types' and a few shades. The wand is weird when you first use it but because I have large eyes I dont have a problem getting the tiny hairs.<br />

I think this was the first mascara I used in High School that was actually good and when I used it I was like 'WHOA' <i>that's</i> what lashes can do? I used it for many years and then I forgot it and left it behind and then I recently re-discovered it. It comes in all sorts now, I've been meaning to try it in the 'Blackest Black' one, once my current tube is out I may go for that one.<br />

A friend bought me my first tube because she fell in love with this mascara. Thank god I discovered this after college when I had my first 'real' job because otherwise I wouldn't have been able to feed my addiction. I love this mascara SO much. I have already long lashes but it makes them even more amazing which I just love. It's not horrible to remove either, I dont use the waterproof formula either. I think I have bought like 10 of these tubes in my life. This is also good if you're got small eyes with small lashes because the wand is so thin.<br />

I own this one in brown because I wanted a more 'natural' look mascara but it surprised the hell out of me when even in brown it's amazingly awesome. I was so impressed with this that I got tubes for my friends when they were in sale at Target. I was having lunch with Alex the other day and I noticed her lashes were amazing and she said 'that mascara you got me, I have to say that it's the best mascara I have ever tried'. And for Alex to admit I'm right takes all the Olympian gods, if you get my drift ;)<br />

This is a pretty recent acquisition of mine but I am in - IN LOVE - with it. I believe it's worth all twenty-eight dollars of it. This is an insane mascara. However, I dont use it everyday. This is a weekend-nights or special events mascara. I keep it well sealed until used so it wont dry out but this is a absolutely fabulous mascara, especially when you're doing a smoky eye look. Gives a true -fake lash- feel to your lashes.<br />

This one is very hard to find these days since Max Factor is being pulled from US shelves. But you can easily find it internationally. My cousin in Puerto Rico sends them to me <3 But this mascara is absolutely divine and kicks ass of those twice it's price. I have it in the very black one and I just love it. This is also my friend Glenda's, who is a professional makeup artist, favorite mascara along with Lashblast.<br />

This mascara and I became bffs this past weekend and I'm already wondering how I ever lived without it. The answer is that I didn't - honestly! The trick to this one is to let the white primer part dry first and then go in with the carbon black, otherwise you get gray lashes and that doesn't look good on anyone. But once you get the gist of it, by your second coat of black you're wondering if you're seeing things. It's really that amazing, I have been wearing everyday since Saturday when I got it.Even the bf commented on it and he, like most men, dont understand the general use of lashes to begin with.<br />

This was discovery on a whim, I just felt bold and picked it up without hearing about it and I was very much impressed. I am loving these 'double' sided wands. I took it with me to my trip to Washington and I got several compliments on it, it creates a really wonderful bold lash. They have several kinds of it also.<br />
<br />

And that's it! I hope this helps if you're in the market for a new mascara and you're welcomed to suggest some to me. I have in mind to purchase the Givenchy one so perhaps this will one day be a top 9 favorite mascaras, lol.Isabellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17300888241640142995noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119414322234226490.post-10761422728580933072010-04-09T09:43:00.000-04:002010-04-09T09:50:42.462-04:00Shoplust: Anthropologie - Part DeuxYay new goodies at Anthropologie!

These are the products I have either discovered, recently bought and am in love with once more. Or it could be something I had and re-discovered and now am in love with. Please keep in mind that this is makeup and it works differently on everyone depending on their skin tone, skin pigmentation, body chemistry etc.<br />

ELF's Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder ($3)<br />
I continue to be amazed at ELF's products. This one is my current fave of them, their set carries the perfect light blush shade and the perfect contouring shade. It's great for my traveling because it's two in one. Very pigmented and lasts me all day.<br />

Benefit's High Beam ($24)<br />
I've never honestly used this product though it's been quite a cult favorite for a while now. I got this Benefit kit thing and this came in it. I never purchased it because I couldn't justify spending $24 on a highlighter. Yet... now that I've been using my sample sized one for two weeks now I realize why people love it so much. Dabbed and blended under the eye instantly wakes you up. This is one I am buying a full size of it soon.<br />

MAC's Eyeshadow in 'Woodwinked' ($11)<br />
I had a period of three months when I went crazy and bought like too many MAC eyeshadows. Then I forgot about them for pigments and such. Now I've re-discovered them and realized why I bought 'Woodwinked' to begin with. It's absolutely brilliant. That's why!<br />

Heavenly Natural Beauty's mineral shadow in 'Bambi' ($1.75 for sample jar, $5 for full jar)<br />
I bought a whole bunch of things from HNB some weeks ago, tons of samples because I didn't know what I wanted. Yeah... this color is perfection. It blends so well, not a lot of fall out on me. It's just my perfect skin tone with a lovely lustre glimmer to it. It's perfect for daily wear.<br />

Spring nails. (from L-R) Chi's In Between the Sheets, Sally Hansen's Lively Lilac, Maybelline's Pie in the Sky & Rimmel's Steel Gray.<br />
It's not deep-buried secret that I love my polishes. These four just happen to be my 4 favorites this month. They just scream Spring.<br />

Loreal's Studio Secrets Primer ($11)<br />
Yeah... I'm a bit addicted to this thing. I wish it came in a more friendly jar. I wish it was in a tube. But this baby kicks my Smashbox Primer's butt. That's saying A LOT for me. I'm a Smashbox Primer loyalist since it first came out. Now... I'm finding myself ignoring it in favor of this one. As you can see, I need a new jar.<br />

8. Lipsticks - MAC's Marquise D' & NYX's Tea Rose.<br />
I had the MAC one forever ago but it fell behind my bed and bf recently found it when I was making him my furniture around. Now I'm like "NEW LIPSTICK!" and I've been wearing it nearly every day. The NYX one is just gorgeous, it comes with me in my purse wherever life may lead me.<br />

ELF's Eye Makeup Remover Pads ($1)<br />
Yeah. $1. One fucking dollar! Sorry. It's just too much for me, after years oppressed into accepting inflated makeup prices I come across this baby for $1!!!! Not that big, this is why I compared it to a US quarter, but this little thin pad thing takes off ALL of my makeup. It comes with I think 18 pads and I use one on each eye. Plus it's so tiny and perfect, fits in my luggage without making TSA think I'm some sort of a terrorist. Win, win!<br />

10. Viktor & Rolf's FLOWERBOMB perfume (prices vary)<br />
Alex, my bff, who is allergic to life gets tons of makeup from her cousin that works in the Nars counter at Neiman Marcus. She also gets perfumes. I'm lucky enough that Alex has an allergy list to rival a Connecticut resident and I get all the 'left overs'. Including all the perfumes. I love minis because I travel so much, they're perfect for traveling so I took this with me in my recent trip and I must say this perfume must love my body chemistry. Because I was innocently browsing a home design magazine when this man slides up to me and tells me 'you smell great' and then walks away. I know, I know - a bit creepy - but I didn't see him again. Apparently he just needed to tell me this so I will take it as a good thing rather than freak out. Hence I'm dubbing FLOWERBOMB the perfume that attracts strange men in airports.<br />

I'm really excited I did this, I wanted to thank everyone for sending in their entries. It was my first time using the random number generator and it was quite an adventure. But now that I've got it figured out I will be holding more giveaways! I really wish I had enough bottles to send each of you one.Isabellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17300888241640142995noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119414322234226490.post-53001598607124523382010-04-03T11:29:00.000-04:002010-04-03T11:29:00.336-04:00The Basic ThreeSpring is that great time when some days might be warm and other days might be cooler. I have been really watching what I spend because I am saving up for a lovely September vacation but a girl still needs to update her wardrobe, correct?<br />
<br />
I've narrowed down three basic pieces that one can consider investments during this season.<br />
<br />
<b>The Draped Cardigan</b>. You can find them nearly anywhere these days from high end to Target to Macy's. I have been steadily collecting them in a few basic colors. I have them now in black, gray, white and wheat color. But I've been really considering getting it in a non-neutral tone just to spice things up. This cardigan will save you from what I like to refer to as 'over thinking the outfit'. From skinny jeans and flats or cinching the waist with a belt over the cardigan and a dress underneath, you can use this for nearly anything.<br />

<b><span style="font-size: small;">The Jean Shirt</span></b><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="font-size: small;">. Now this is a new one for me. For starters I had to mule over how this piece would fit into my seemingly "dressy" look. I'll be honest, I dont 'dress down' much. I own one pair of sneakers and those are used to work out. I dont own sweatshirts and the only article of clothing I steal from my bf is his dress shirts which I love cinching with a belt. Yet after thinking it over I discovered that I quite like it if done tastefully. Now, be it that you're a rocker-goddess or a conservative like me this can definitely work for you. </span></span><br />

We know heat that most people dont understand. I'm not talking about the sun bearing down on you like it does in Phoenix. I'm talking about gasping-humidity that makes you want to dive into a glass of ice water. That type of heat. And this type of heat last from about now up until November. Yeah, we have issues.<br />
<br />
So what exactly do we have to do to stay looking fabulous through the months of unbearable heat ahead? These are a few tricks I've learned:<br />
<br />
1- <b>Keep the toes done because you're going to need sandals</b>. Most important in the hot weather is making sure you dont go around with crunchy feet. There's no greater sin.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">2 - <b>Dont fight the hair</b>. If you've got curls, then you've got curls. You're going to have to come to terms with that one on your own. If the humidity is high, April showers are approaching or you're coming fresh out of the pool/beach dont waste your time blow-drying and then flat-ironing that hair. Add some product to it, diffuse it and let it air-dry. Combat frizz by using serum and dont comb it once the curls have set it. If you've got straight hair just add some good products to it and let it air dry for a sexy-casual look. If you've got long hair braid it or top with fancy yet laid back up-dos. And then, anyone can do a fancy-dandy pony tail. If you've got a cute face maybe it's time to try that pixie look you've been thinking about.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</div> 3 - <b>Purse essentials</b>. If you've got a long day, chances are you may not have time to go back home and 'touch up' before the date or before you meet your friends for diner. If you've got a car, I always carry a few shoes in the trunk along with a change of clothes. Cause you never know. If all you've got is your purse make sure it's a nice large one because come Summer you need essentials.<br />
