Fun Fridays! Meet Fashion Designer Rachel Roy at Macy's

Hello Divas!

It is Fun Fridays! Yeah!  Boy I love Fridays! The luxe kids and I always do something special. Love it!

This Saturday, the style icon and fashion designer, Rachel Roy, will meet shoppers and introduce her Spring 2010 Collection of her Rachel Rachel Roy line at Macy's Lenox Square Mall, Atlanta, GA.  Rachel will discuss her inspiration behind the line and showcase the designs.

Ms. Roy's Rachel line is more affordable than her signature Rachel Roy Designer Collection and "expresses a fresh version of glamour and youthfulness that reflects today's urban sophistication."  The price range for the Rachel line starts at $29 and maxes out at $299!  My kind of prices! Woot!  Now we all can have afford a Rachel Roy piece!

Okay. The heart necklace and the green sandals are too hot!

Of course there will be a fashion show, music and hors d'oeuvres for all guests.  And if you purchase $100 of more of Rachel Rachel Roy, you will receive a Spring 2010 Collection Look Book and a special gift!

The event takes place this Saturday at 2pm at Macy's Lenox Square Mall.

Liberty of London: No Shirt Dress, But Cute Journals!

Hello Divas!

I hope you had a fab weekend!  On Friday I received tons of good news and not so good news, but I figured it all balanced out!  Gotta love life!

Friday was such a GORGEOUS day in Atlanta so I was in the shopping mood.  I went to Target in search of Liberty of London wear, because the clothes are made for beautiful sunny days! There are some adorable dresses in the line, but I wanted the oh so fab Liberty of London Shirt Dress that I hear is already selling like hot cakes on Ebay. Yikes!

Of course I checked three Targets and there was not a Liberty of London shirt dress in sight. Bummer!  But I did pick up these adorable Liberty of London mini journals.

How cute are they?? I love them!  They come in a set of three in various colors and patterns.  I chose this pink set.  So feminine and pretty!  They easily fit inside my bag and I love the ability to jot down ideas and notes on the go.  Especially when I am brainstorming to write!  These journals were only $6.99!  But hurry to your nearest Target, because the Liberty of London items are selling out fast!

Toodles!

Fun Fridays! CVS Sales and More!

Hello Divas!

I hope your week has been fantastic!  It is cold again in Atlanta, in the 20s!! Whoo!

Well it is Fun Fridays and time to talk about things that are fun....like shopping! LOL!

My favorite drugstore, CVS, is having some great sales on Make-Up.  All Rimmel Cosmetics are buy one get one 50% off.  Select Loreal Products are $5 with a CVS card.  Revlon has a sale on its Photo Ready Foundation.  This foundation is all the rage and I can't wait to try it out! It is only $12 with a CVS card. 

Although I have tons of makeup, I feel like I need new make-up.  You have to keep it new and fresh!  Currently I am having a pink obsession and I want the perfect pink lip gloss or lip stick.  Pink just makes me think of Spring and Sundresses! I am going to check out the colors below this weekend.

Lancome Bronze Heat.  A bronzy-pink color. Love it!

Mac Cosmetics Viva Glam GaGa. A true pink! Love the packaging!

Chanel's Rouge Coco Lipstick in Mademoiselle.  A dark luxurious pink!

I am trying all 3 and will get one or maybe two. We will see. Which one you think would look best on me?  I have an idea, but I will try them first!

Toodles!

Fun Fridays! Introducing Lancôme’s Spring 2010 Color Collection

Hello Divas!

How was your week?  I hope fabulous!  It is snowing in Atlanta...although lightly, the city will probably shut down. Hilarious!

Well my favorite luxe beauty brand has done it again.  Lancôme’s has just released their Spring 2010 color collection, entitled,  Ô My Rose.  This collection includes corals, peaches, and teal greens. I am already salivating. This color combination is INSANE!


I am particularly fascinated with the Pop n’ Cheeks blush in Coral Flirt.  It is a peachy blush with hints of gold.  As you know and I can attest, peach blush or bronzer looks AMAZING on brown skin! 

Also I can't wait to get my hands on the Ink Artliner, gel eyeliner in Teal Delight! I love green eyeshadow and this color will look gorgeous on anyone! I know it! I have several Lancome Artliner, gel eyeliners, and they are the best!  They glide on so smoothly and the colors are intense and have wonderful staying power.

Plus the collection includes Le Crayon Khol Waterproof eyeliner in a brownish gold color, entitled Brun Tease and a Teal Color, entitled Teal Kiss.


And Lancome has the best eyeshadows.  Their Color Design eyeshadow quads are fantastic!  The color combinations are perfect.  I particularly love this one. 

This collections has rich corals, peaches, and gold lip colors to complete the look. 


Here is the complete look. Gorgeous!  

You can see the entire collection here.  Make sure to get your favorites now because this collection will surely sell out! 


Toodles!

THISDAY ARISE AFRICAN COLLECITVE AND JUAN CARLOS OBANDO FASHION SHOWS: MAC COSMETICS

Hello Divas!

Remember no matter what you are going through, you can always turn it around!

So far Mercedez-Benz Fashion Week has been simply fantastic! MAC Cosmetics is definitely setting the tone for Spring make-up. The face for spring includes healthy looking skin with natural warm colors.

At the Thisday Arise African Collective Show, the lead MAC Makeup Artist, Fatima, created a simple but classic look. Her inspiration for the look was the fiery orange red color used in the Jewel Collection. Specifically she used a strong red lip with sheer lightweight foundation, black smudged gel eyeliner, and no mascara. Here is the look:

The MAC Products used were:

Lips - Mix of Pure lip Pigment and Park Side lipstick

Face- Face and Body Foundation

Eyes- Fluid Gel Eyeliner. No Mascara just curled lashes.

At the Juan Carlos Obando Show MAC Lead Make-up Artist, Fulvia Fanolfi created a look that was reminiscent of "Old Westerns", which was Obando's inspiration when he created the Spring 2010 Collection. Fulvia used colors that included the colors of the desert. As a result, she used browns, bronzes, and taupes to create a dusky look.

The MAC Products used were:

Face - A blend of MAC NC45 and NC55 on the cheeks, Bronzer, and the color Taupe for countouring.

Eyes - Brown Breeze eyeshadow was used on the eyes.

Lips - Brown Breeze eyeshadow was used on the lips as well.

Here is the look:



As Fulvia stated, "the look is very monochromatic and cinematographic as if the model had been exposed to the sun for a month."

Stay tuned for more Spring Beauty Trends!
