Venomous Villains.

I love mac makeup. I especially love the limited edition collections they do. On September 30th they are once again unveiling a truly unique collection, it is called "venomous villains." This collection of makeup is an ode to villains everywhere. They have makeup dedicated to Cruellea de Vil, the Evil Queen from Snow White, Maleficent, and Dr. Facilier. Take a look!

The Hills Style?

I don't know about you, but I was a huge fan of the hills at the beginning. As the seasons continued and time went on I lost interest in the show and only watched episodes here and there. So, I have been reading in a lot of places that LC is planning to release a style book. Now, I don't know about you but I was never a fan of Lauren Conrad's style. She is the perfect example of what a lot of money and little creativity can get you these days, but that is just my personal opinion. I would never have thought she would write a style book. Based on these excerpts I think many would agree.

This blog is made to share and enjoy fashion. But with fashion, I believe, always comes beauty. Makeup, hair and nails are like accessories. If done right they compliment an outfit perfectly. Lately, my hair has been dry and frizzy. The climate where I live makes it difficult to have lustrous hair all the time. I have literally tried dozens of products and masks. I have been using the Frederic Fekkai 3 minute hair mask, which is nice but it doesn't give me enough moisture. I have used an all natural L'Oreal mask which smells nice but that is about it. I have also used Keratase masks. Keratase makes wonderful products but they're seriously expensive at 30.00 + dollars per product. So I decided to get creative, I found and adjusted a wonderfull ALL NATURAL recipe. I have been doing it once a week for about two weeks and I have noticed a real difference in the texture and look of my hair. Give this recipe a try and let me know how it goes!

All Natural Hair Mask:
1 egg
1 mashed banana
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons milk
4 tablespoons olive oil

Mix ingredients together and apply to hair. Leave for 20-30 minutes. Wash out with shampoo.

Half Price

Hello out there. I just found two awesome websites I need to share. The first is called www.sale.com and its exactly what it sounds like. It is a website dedicated to discounted designer clothing. The next one is an ode to my previous post about vintage. It's called beaconscloset.com, a website for the amazing designer vintage store in NYC. If you haven't checked these sites out, you're missing out!

Vintage

I can't say that I am the biggest vintage collector. I have a few pieces, mostly consisting of hand-me downs from my mom or my grandma. The items I have been collecting are what I consider vintage staples, a jacket, a beautiful pair of old leather boots, a handbag, and last but not least, costume jewelery. It seems to be that whenever I compliment someone else, the item is almost always vintage. (Either that or the person doesn't want me to run out and buy the same piece, and for that I cannot blame them). Lately, I have been scouring eBay trying to find some vintage gems. Here are some of my dream vintage finds.

tis the season.

No no, I am not talking about the holidays. I am talking about fall. I think somewhere, sometime I have mentioned that fall is without a doubt my favorite season. Where I live the seasons are all how they are described in books. Spring is wet and rainy, Summer is hot, Fall is cool and crisp, and Winter is just plain cold. I really can't explain why fall is my favorite, it just is. But! I think it has a little to do with the fashion. I am a sucker for a nice pair of boots, I love finishing off a look with just the right jacket and I love accessorizing with wool tights and scarves. The colors you wear in fall are also what draws me in. Mustards, dark greens, navy, rich reds, black they are all colors that even when you wear in other seasons they have a distinct fall feel. So in the spirit of fall here are some of my favorite looks for the 2010 season!
