Lash Xtension



So Halloween is just a few days away and I'm trying to get my costume together before Sunday. One item I needed to get was false lashes. I think regardless of what your costume is you should still throw on a pair of false lashes just for fun. I bought mine from MAC but there are so many options out there I thought I'd show you a few of my favorites.

If you want natural looking lashes try...

Laura Mercier Faux Lashes $18 or MAC No. 36 Lashes $14

If you want thicker lashes try...

MAC No. 1 Lashes $14.00 or Shu Umera Luxe Black $22.00

If you want fantasy lashes try...

Illamasqua No. 26 Feather Lashes $22 or MAC No. 42 Lashes $14.00

Besides MAC, Illamasqua makes the best false lashes. If you are really looking for something unique and different try Illamasqua they have everything from natural lash extensions to full on feathers creations.

MIA Cadet

and I'm in love. This picture does not do these boots justice. They are so comfortable and the color goes with everything. Kind of of a grayish khaki, also available in black. Can't wait to wear them out!

Vogue Project

The walls of bedroom are bleak and boring. I don't have a single stitch of artwork hanging. Why? Because I change my mind way too much. I can't design myself business cards because I'd be sick of them in a week. Anyway I came up with an idea to add some style to my bare walls that I don't think I would ever change my mind about. And here it is...

Holiday Collections

The stores will soon be filled with holiday decor and before you know it the chaos of holiday family functions will consume your life! Something exciting to look forward to are the holiday makeup collections. I'm getting a sneak peak of MAC's this Tuesday and I'm dying to snag a set of their brushes in one of the perfectly plaid cosmetic bags.

Holiday collections are always limited edition and they go FAST! Stock up if you find that perfect shade of lipstick you've been searching high and low for because once it's gone, it's gone. Most collections hit stores this month so ask your favorite makeup counter so you get first dibs. Happy Shopping.

Tokyo Milk

The search for the perfect fragrance is always a challenge for me. I change my mind too much and I always regret buying that $70 bottle of perfume. So, I discovered the perfect product for me and those who are searching for their signature scent...Tokyo Milk. With 18 different scents I'm sure you can find one that suits your taste. What I love most is the price. These cleverly named perfumes are only $28.00 for 1 oz. I highly recommend trying these along with their line of luxurious soaps and lip balms. I found my stash at Grandmother's Buttons in St. Francisville but the entire line is also available online at tokyo-milk.com

Olivia Obsessed



So we all love to hate her self absorbed character on "The City" (I say character bc I don't believe she has ever actually worked for ELLE) but the girl has style! I love just about everything she wears and would love to peek into her closet.  Here's some of my favorite Olivia looks from the past few weeks...

P.S. check out the Proenza Schouler Lace Up Boots in the bottom right pic...love!
