In the Trenches | May 20, 2010

In the Trenches

Burberry is about to become more luxurious (if that’s even possible), with their soon to be launched line of cosmetics. It seems that all design labels have their hands in all cookie jars. And why not? John Fairchild himself said, “fashion is everywhere, it reaches everyone”. Indeed.

However, the creation of the makeup line seemed like the next step according to Christopher Bailey, chief creative officer for Burberry. “It started because I felt that, at shows and the shoots, the whole [Burberry] attitude is epitomized through the shoes, the bags, the clothes, the accessories, but then the face was the one … Read More »

Tips on Using Bronzer | May 19, 2010

Tips on Using Bronzer

Since Summer is around the corner, I’m getting a lot of questions about getting a sun-free bronze look.  The best, quickest and cheapest way to do this is with bronzer.

Here are a few tips, and I have also included some for women of color:

What specific brands/colors of bronzers work best for all colors of … Read More »

Internet Provides Instant Gratification, But At What Cost? | May 19, 2010

Internet Provides Instant Gratification, But At What Cost?

Shortly after my “Aha” moment with Kelly Cutrone, I found myself sitting in on another Scad Style event.  From Magazine to Monitor – The Rise of the Blog panel discussion featured four of the Design Industry leading professionals.  Jaithan Kochar, Nick Olsen, Rita Konig and Eddie Ross discussed their perceptions, thoughts and ideas of just how E-Magazines and blogs impact not only the magazine industry, but our life and the world that we live in as well.  One of the first questions raised was whether or not the rise of the digital world will see the fall of the current … Read More »

Limoncello Cake | May 18, 2010

Limoncello Cake

I have seen recipes that call for Limoncello for a lot of years but have never made any of them. I finally remembered to pick up a bottle of Limoncello the last time I visited the liquor store and I’m so glad I did.

This is an easy cake, light and lemony. Served alone or with fruit, it’s a FABU ending for an Italian dinner.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare an 8-inch cake pan with cooking spray. I used a springform pan.

Whisk together the yogurt, eggs, canola oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, … Read More »

Small Town Dating: Sex and the City It Is Not | May 18, 2010

Small Town Dating: Sex and the City It Is Not

When I first became single after a long relationship I felt empowered, liberated and confident. I was certain the world was my oyster and better things lay ahead. I looked forward to weekend getaways, late nights out on the town and daytime retail therapy with the girls, sure my remaining time would consist of being wined and dined by single, attractive men. I was certain my life would be full of cosmopolitans and Prada, investment bankers and champagne. I basically thought life would be all ‘Carrie Bradshaw’ when, in reality, it’s very much ‘Bridget Jones’. Minus the chain smoking, Hugh … Read More »

The Good Stuff | May 17, 2010

The Good Stuff

Good stuff surrounds us, but oftentimes we ignore the good stuff.  We’re pining away for what we perceive to be the better stuff.

Goal-setting, and possessing a clear vision for what we truly desire, are absolutely essential in order for us to grow.  Yet we must remain cognizant of all we currently have, to feel true appreciation for it, in order to acquire even more out of life.

Members of the Woe is Me club remain as such simply because they chose to be there.  We have the power within us to drop out of the Woe is Me club and live … Read More »
