Gossip Style: Blair Waldorf
 

While Serena accessorizes her school uniform with a cool leather jacket, Blair takes her look to another level with her Victorian-inspired ruffled blouse. On bottom she wears a simple navy skirt, and adds pops of color with her green tights and red headband. Let’s see if we can get this look for less.

It’s time for….Look for Less!!  Yay!  Ok, I am very rested and feeling good this morning.  So – today’s look for less is inspired by Lauren Conrad.  Yes she may be a little annoying with the excessive crying, but come on, her style is usually on point.  Here is a way to get her look for way less:

So far everything is looking pretty nice!  There is also going to be animal print clutches, leaopard, zebra and tiger.  I can’t wait and I really am glad that they decided to throw in zebra and tiger which are usually neglected for cheetah print.

Wow, ok as soon as I get some new information you know I will post it for yall.  Any questions ask and I will try to find out for you and any comments please post. 🙂  Happy Saturday!!

Hello possums!” Dame Edna Everage is in the house! With her zesty zingers, cutting-edge appearance – lilac hair (which is completely natural), rhinestone-encrusten face furniture, fanciful frocks – frankly; there’s nothing like a Dame!

Dame Edna is the resident muse for our spectacular post-holiday makeup collection, and modestly describes herseld as “probably the most popular and gifted woman in the world today: housewife, investigative journalist, social anthropologist, talk-show host, swami, children’s book illustrator, spin doctor, megastar, and icon.”

With packaging as mirthful and minx-like as the Legend herself, the Dame collection of heavy-on-the-lilac lipstick/lipglass, eye Shadow, highlight powder and nail lacquers is in a class by itself!

Follow my beauty regime possums, and you’ll never be cosmetically challenged – Dame Edna

The Dame Edna Collection for MAC Cosmetics has got to have the craziest and most amusing (or annoying) promotional posters and packaging – glittery light lavender, with Dame Edna in all her “happiness” and flamboyancy!  I will be honest when I say I have no idea what they were thinking when they chose Dame Edna as a fashion or makeup icon…I mean we have a plethora of drag queens who love makeup (a bit redundant huh?), who could be a much better choice for a makeup line, but I digress.!

I’ve managed to review some of the items of this collection, and they are definitely bold, and colorful!

3194492752_b2be0f95fc

The Wisteria Eye Trio has the colors Fineshine ( L ), Wisteria ( V ) and Divine Night ( V ). Wisteria is a silvery white color with very fine microshimmer. This would be perfect to be applied on the inner V of the eyelids, or for flamboyant browbone highlighting. This would definitely lift the brows because of its shimmer effect!

3193649219_34e428e880

Wisteria, is a captivating light blue shade. The shimmer is very low, and I bet it’d look lovely on the lids, on both fair, or tanned complexions. I would think it be best with a white eyeshadow base for a really light blue pop, and if you put a black shadow base on you could really do a quick and easy smokey eye.  Divine Night, on the other hand, is a medium black ( not too black ) with medium shimmer ( white ) as well. It was just okay, I think I like the black from the MAC Chill Collection better.

3194494650_170ae2bceb

 

 

Their lipstick, in Kanga-Rouge, is just perfect because it comes in the texture that I so love – Amplified Creme. Amplified Creme lipsticks glide like butter on the lips, and they make the lips look so creamy and full! The shine is just right, the creaminess just astounds me, and the color, in red, makes me want to run out and put on a Marilyn style dress! It’s a definite candidate for that perfect red!

3194494310_48598e719c1

 

 

The lipglass in the collection Possum Nose Pink lipglass is a red-pink shade that looks juicy. It has microshimmers that really make the lips pop out, and give such luscious shine! This would be perfect for a shiny tint during the day, or worn on top of any pink, or red lipcolor for that high megawatt shine and beautiful color.

I haven’t had the chance to post pictures of the highlighters in this collection but I may do that later. I can say that they’re a little bit matte, not flat, and the shine is not too much. They’d make really nice, subtle highlighters, because they have no glitters at all. I’ve been thinking to get them, but I want to focus on getting the complete MAC Hello Kitty Collection, as I definitely have my eyes on that!

Here is the breakdown of all the items available:

Now, everyone should know that I love Barbie. And when I say I love Barbie, I mean I LOVE Barbie. I have over 20k dollars worth of collectable barbies in their box, untouched. And yes I am in my 20’s. So when I heard Stila was doing their own take on the Barbie as makeup theme, I almost choked on my Coke Zero. What?? AFTER MAC already did this? Well it must mean it’s either gonna suck compared to MAC or its gonna rock the house.  (PS I am gonna post more swatches and in depth personal reviews soon – I promise)

So from what I can tell, it’s gonna ROCK THE HOUSE!!  They are going more old school

stila_barbiepreview

The collection features four Decades of Beauty cans, each $40, with a booklet inside describing the beauty and fashion wardrobes for each doll. The first, #1 Ponytail Doll, celebrates the first Barbie, launched in 1959. It includes a red lipstick called Ponytail, a liquid eyeliner and a three-pan paper-wrapped compact with two eye shadows and a cheek color. Malibu Barbie, which highlights the doll of the same name that launched in 1971, has a pale pink Lip Glaze called Malibu, a black mascara and a compact with two eye shadows and a bronzer. Foxy Doll, which depicts the African-American Barbie launched in 1980, includes a Lip Glaze called Foxy, mascara and a compact with two eye shadows and a cheek color. The final offering, Jewel Doll, is based on the 2000 Barbie of the same name and includes a bright pink Lip Glaze called Jewel, a Multi-Effect Mascara and a compact with two eye shadows and a cheek color.

Stila also will launch a new version of its patent-pending talking palette with tips and tools on how to get the Barbie look. As with the beauty cans, this product, which will retail for $40, will be available only at Sephora and sephora.com.


You read right–Barbie Loves Stila launched this morning on Sephora, and they’re now ready to be purchased by you and yours. I’ll be abstaining myself, though the Talking Palette is mighty tempting. I hope you’ll all send in photos and swatches and whathaveyou when you get yours 🙂 Shop Sephora.com to purchase!

spring09_barbie005Barbie Loves Stila Talking Palette ($40.00)
Palette features four pretty in pink (and purple) wet/dry eyeshadows that create the classic Barbie eye look. The best part? It’s foolproof! It literally talks you through every step of easy application and there’s even an insert card with instructions on step-by-step makeup application, as well as information on Barbie through the decades. Palette includes shadows in cool pink shimmer (base), bright lilac with gold sparkle (lid), deep pink (crease), and dark purple with blue sparkle (liner).
