Fun Read...

Author, Gisele Scanlon, has compiled her favorite goddess-worthy tips from her very own personal adventures, as well as, encounters with your favorite designers and fashion mavens into the hot pink and black velvet covered book, THE GODDESS GUIDE.

THE GODDESS GUIDE covers topics from "Style" to "Travel" to "Joie de Vivre." Inside these deliciously bound pages are tips like what underwear you can wear without worrying about icky panty-lines, what clothes to pack if you're headed to Paris, and how to keep your home spick and span in style. Gisele has even included interview questions and answers with your faves, like Christian Louboutin and Laura Mercier, who answer questions like "So, what's the secret to finding the perfect foundation?"

Beauty is in its lunar phase...

I recently had the opportunity to check out Mac's new line of limited-edition colors called Moonbathe. The colors are vibrant with Pale, phosphorescent Eye Shadows, Glimmershimmers of white gold, Lipsticks and Lipglass of rich lunar metal, blazing golden peaches and radiant pearled plums.

I tried the following colors in the shadows and lipglass and they are sure fire winners...

Lipglass-Crescent

Eye Shadow-Cosmic & Firespot

Dresses and coats and bags, oh my!

While shopping in Soho, I wandered into the Bloomie's on Broadway and stumbled upon the Tracy Reese Spring 2007 Handbag Line. I can't say that all the bags were hits but this is one of my favorites. The Cecily Flap Satchel kinda has a lot going on with this bag but somehow it still looks clean and sleek. This fully lined-satchel has goldtone hardware everywhere, including the protective feet. The only thing that detracts from the beauty of this bag is the somewhat clunky hardware on the turn-lock closure but other than that , it's a winner.
