Hi Beauties ! With warmer weather in sight, I wanted to share Pantone's Fashion Color Report for Spring 2013! These 9 shades are forecast to be the Hottest colors in fashion this season- 1. Emerald 2. Dusk Blue 3. Tender Shoots 4. Grayed Jade 5. Lemon Zest 6. Linen 7. Monaco Blue 8. Poppy Red 9. Nectarine The color forecast for this Spring consists of an eclectic mix of punchy brights, jewel tones and dusty muted shades. At first glance, the color palette reminded me of a dress from the 70's ;) I typically tend to enjoy a few more neon and bright tones in my spring/summer wardrobe, but think that these color choices would pair well with some of my favorites :) What do You think about the Spring 2013 Color Forecast for Fashion?  * Photo from redoitdesign.com

Spring 2013 Fashion Transition

Image
❤  HI BEAUTIES!  ❤  This week I noticed the very first daffodils spouting their welcome green leaves.. aah finally Spring is upon us! :) In the Mid Atlantic, this time of year is always pretty bi-polar weather wise. With temperatures back and forth between the 40s and 60s, I NEVER know what to wear! So I decided to do an Outfit of the Day (OOTD) video on my Youtube channel sharing the perfect outfit for the winter to spring transition. The perfect compromise is achieved by pairing winter pieces like tights and a cardigan, with spring pieces like lace shorts and adorable mary janes. Be sure to watch my new video for details on this cute Outfit of the Day!  ❤ here -->    SPRING FASHION OOTD Shoes:  Justfab Phoenicia   Lace Shorts : Sara Boo on Hautelook    Tights: Dept store    Cami: H&M    Cardigan: Old Navy   Necklace & Watch: ShopLately    Hat: Forever 21

HI BEAUTIES! While watching HSN the other day I saw a promotional ad for this new product and let me just tell you ... IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT. As most of you beauties already know, I am a total concealer junkie and always on the hunt for  the latest and greatest in the beauty industry.  I struggle with dark under eye circles, puffy bags and  fine lines ( geez, that sounds so awful all typed out lol ) While I have found a few amazing concealers during my never ending journey; I was very intrigued with the new product that popped up on my television screen this week. It was prettily packaged like a lipstick, looked hydrating like a balm, and had the creamy color of a coverage capable concealer?! One look and I was SOLD! May I present to you, Benefit Cosmetics NEW Fakeup Hydrating Concealer Isn't she beautiful?! I feel like I've waited years to see a product like this! While I don't have "dry" under eyes persay, I do tend to have fine lines
