Mineral Make-up

It’s a new hype in Make-up and it’s natural — so I’m a fan. Found a great article on Aesthetic Technologies:
Mineral makeup is made from crushed minerals, high on pigment, and containing no chemicals, fillers or dyes. It is also naturally hypoallergenic and it doesn’t clog pores, making it suitable for most skin types. Mineral […]

Summer Jeans for 2008

No, jeans are not too warm for the summer sun. That’s just plain BS. Light jeans in all meanings of the word are great for summer, and will carry your casual look like no other! I went onto net-a-porter to find some extremely sexy summer denim; and came back with some perfect ones! :D

Marie Claire June 2008: Eco Chic Goes Glam

Melissa Shoes: Fantastic Plastic Comeback

When I was in the 6 years old, I saw a pair of plastic shoes being sold by a sidewalk vendor for 30cents at a downtown bazaar. The shoes were shiny black, shaped like ballet flats, with a cut-out design over the entire surface. It was love at first sight. I begged my mom to […]

Badass… with Class

Michelle Trachtenberg debuted on last week’s episode of Gossip Girl. Trachtenberg (remembered for her role as Buffy’s little sister on the canceled show) portrays Georgina Sparks, scheming bad girl who emerges from Serena’s dark past, stirring up trouble for her newly-reformed partner-in-crime. Georgina’s sudden appearance raises many questions that amp the tangled Upper East Side […]

TV’s Latest “Dramaddiction” is every Fashionista’s Guilty Secret

Everyone loves Gossip Girl. Even those who say they hate the show, actually watch it, albeit secretly. But it isn’t just the high-maintenance Upper East Side drama that’s sooo addictive. Most girls, myself included, tune in with habitual obsession every week to salivate over the fashion eyecandy.
Each of the female characters has her own […]
