Budget Fashion Find: Emerald Kimono Dress by Paul & Joe

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

It’s always nice to see a splash of colour in between clouds of neutrals and pastels. That is why I love this silk dress by Paul & Joe. It would look awesome with silver or gold accessories and a belt.  It can also be worn on its own or as a top.

Luxury for Less: Edmundo Castillo Gold Strappy High Heels

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I am still looking for a pair of shoes to wear to my friend’s wedding. I am drooling over these gold leather, Italian-made shoes. It’s too bad they don’t carry my size and they’re not silver-toned. Other than that these shoes are gorgeous and at that price (OMG!), what a deal!

Budget Beauty Find: Clinique Make-Up Palette

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I can never get sick of make-up palettes/sets. Clinique is having a great deal on their eye and make-up kit set.  I love the berry lip colours and the pastel colours for the eyes. With pastel eye shadow, less is more. A hint of pastel green, blue or pink is always pretty and very spring-like. The blue shade will look fabulous on green eyes and the green shade will bring out the blue in blue eyes. And for those people with brown eyes? All colours will look amazing! Lucky you!

Fashion Inspiration: Disco Dancing

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

This is such a fun dress! It reminds me so much of disco days from the 70’s.  The dress is covered with champagne sequins (how delicious!) and it can be worn in soooo many ways.  With black hose and heels, like the model. Belted, with boots, and a blazer. Over leggings and flats for a more casual look or with bare legs, strappy heels, dangling earrings (hoops maybe?) and a loose loose chignon for a more sophisticated approach.

Budget Beauty Find: Scott Barnes Chic Palette

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

I like really like this trio of blush colours by celebrity make up artist Scott Barnes (he worked with JLO when she was really big star). I am a big fan of contouring. I love how it changes, adds drama to the face along with instant modelesque cheek bones. I like to reserve heavy contouring at night because during the day it is too obvious. During the day a swipe of bronzer or blush is suffice.

To learn how to contour see the video below.

The video below shows how to contour with cream and powder blushes.  I like both methods but the powder version works better for me because my skin is a bit more on the oily side. Cream options does wonders for drier skin types.
