Today's article is all about BEAUTY and MAKEUP!!!!! Makeup has been around since the time of Egyptian queens like Cleopatra, and women have been using it to enhance their natural beauty since forever! Why? Well, I believe that makeup helps with confidence, self-image, and has the capability to shape the emotional reaction of others. Just think about the impact that a bright red lipstick can have! My fashion is never complete without makeup. Ever.
A few weeks ago, my MUA friend, Melissa (who is also a Makeup Stylist at NARS at Barney's NY) invited me to the launch of NARS new collection - The Audacious Lipstick Collection. In celebration of its 20th anniversary, they have released 40 new shades of lipstick colors, along with other cosmetics -- including beautifully colored nail polishes. The shades from nudes, reds, pinks, orange, plums, and vampy shades. Each shade is named for an iconic woman in song, film or fashion and is encased in a sleek matte-black tube with a magnetic click.
Of all 40 colors, a selection of 10 shades - Vanessa, Julie, Dominique, Marisa, Vivien, Silvia, Kelly, Carmen, Sandra, and Ingrid - are exclusive to NARS Boutiques, narscosmetics.com and Barney's New York, but all 40 of them are permanent. They were launched a few weeks earlier at Barney's, so I went to the one in downtown to check them out, and I had Melissa do my makeup (That was the most fun part!) Now the collection is available at Sephora and other department stores!
Happy Monday LOVEs!
How was your weekend? Did you do anything fun?
Today's post is all about mens spring/summer suits! Obviously, I don't wear a mens suit, but I am always so into mens-inspired looks. A tom boy/mannish style, matching trouser suits, oversize blazer, and MORE!!!! I bet you've seen me quite often in those styles, right? Also my total weakness for guys is whoever is rocking a stylish suit! Omg...Whenever I see a guy walking on a street and he dresses so nice in a suit, my eyes are changed to <3 right away just like a manga, then I can't help but look at him more than a few times! To be honest with you, one of the list items for my type is "someone who looks sexy in a suit!" lol Every time I go shopping in downtown, I definitely go checking the mens floor 'JUST' to see men sales reps because they are so freaking hot and sexy and seriously make me wish that they were my boyfriend :p
A few weeks ago, one of my friends asked me where he could get a great suit in order to update his wardrobe. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to answer right away. However, now I know I can answer his question in no time because I found an amazing suit store that you will love as well, called BONOBOS! I hope you have heard of this awesome mens brand. Their suits are definitely something I would love (or force? lol) my boyfriend to wear, and I love the vast amount of super stylish suit selections! I am so sure that guys can look hotter or cooler once they put on BONOBOS suits! Not only do they carry the fashionable suits, also available are awesome Pants, Denim, Shirts, Shorts, and of course MORE! I think this is such a great time to switch up your closet since you don't wanna wear a bulky, dark, and poor-in-air-permeability suit in the hot weather, do you?
