Lindsay Lohan Leggings - Uh…

Written by on Tuesday, May 13th, 2008 in Style, fashion flops, leggings, lindsay-lohan.

Mercy.  Let me count the ways this is wrong. 

1.  I hate leggings.  No, I really don’t always hate leggings, I hate leggings when worn as regular old pants though.  Yuck.

2.  I hate metallic leggings.  Yes, I do.  Leggings should only come in black,  period.

3.  What’s worse than leggings?  Stirrup pants.  Yup, worse.  Much worse.

4.  Lindsay, how old are you?  You look 45, rode hard and hung up wet.

So, will you be running out to buy some of Lindsay Lohan’s new leggings?

Weekly Web Snob: May 2, 2008

Written by on Saturday, May 3rd, 2008 in Beauty, Friends of eBeauty Daily, Style, websnob.

Really I can hardly believe it is May already.  Every time I write “May” (which has been a lot in 2 days for some reason!) it freaks me out a little bit.  This has been a tough week for me - feeling the allergies, my son has had some weird stomach flu and my hubby has had a hell week too.  TGIF baby!  I have a lot of link catching up to do over the weekend, so here is the first, with my return to Web Snob, after a week hiatus (has it been a rough two weeks??  Maybe.).  :)  Enjoy your weekend - I know I will!!

Project Runway Designer T-shirts

Written by on Wednesday, April 30th, 2008 in Beauty, Project-Runway, Save Money, Style, sales, tshirts.

Through May 8th, the Project Runway store has a discount on the Project Runway designers tshirts - they are regularly $24.95, on sale for $18.95.  There are some super cute ones in there - I’ve not quite decided yet which one I am going to get.  Here are Elisa and Kit’s tshirts - my two top choices, but Im thinking the boobs probably aren’t appropriate for “mom wear.”  *sigh*

So our newest B&S’er, Tris, at Manscaping-101, has found the quickest way to get fired.    Tag me on a meme. :)   Ha!  Nah, just kidding, I don’t mind.  I am a couple of meme’s behind though, so Ill start with this one and work my way down (riiiiight). 

My Beauty Secrets (this is old news to you guys):

My Foundation: bareMinerals, baby.  I have branched back into liquid a bit, and I adore the youthful look that Elizabeth Arden’s Intervene gives me. 

My Mascara: Oy - I have a ton of mascaras that I have been using - right now my fave is Lancome’s Courbe Virtuose - gives amazing lash with no flaking or smudging, and it is easy to apply.

My Blush:  3 Custom Color Specialists cool bronzer.  Perfection.

My Eye Shadow:  Eye shadow is ALWAYS MAC.  Always.  Nothing else compares.

My Day Cream: This is one that I don’t really have a favorite for.  Right now I am using Eve Lom, and really do like it.  More about that later.

My Lipstick:  Again MAC.  Any of the cool Viva Glam shades and glosses.  Delish.  And good for the world. :)

My Beauty Product Brand:  Again, MAC.  If I only could wear one brand, this would be it.

My Essential Beauty Product:  Definitely the Clairsonic skin care brush.  I will never be without this again if I can help it.

My Favorite Makeup Product:  This is hard.  Probably mascara - just don’t make me commit to one.

My Perfume: I have to stick with my favorite classic - Calvin Klein Eternity.  It is so me.  But I love to experiment.

My Nails:  I love all OPI polishes, Chanel colors (even though the polish quality leaves something to be desired), and Nailtiques treatments.

My Feet:  Zims Crack Creme (this stuff is amazing) and good old fashioned Cetaphil cream - in the tub.  Again, truly awesome.

My Hands: Again, you can’t hardly beat the Cetaphil cream in the tub.  Good for everything that ails (drys) you.

Three Products to bring on a deserted island:  Gobs of bareMinerals foundation (for sunscreen AND beauty), Paul Mitchell Hair Repair, and toothpaste.  :)

Woman I admire for their beauty:  Anyone in Hollywood brave enough to age gracefully, without making their face look like an overstuffed sofa.  Helen Mirran.  Gorgeous.

Woman with the Best Sense of Style: Why is this a hard question?  Uh - Angelina Jolie.  She sure knows how to properly style her arm candy. :)

My Ultimate Dream (but I do not believe in selling my soul to the devil for it):  I already have it - An amazing hubby, amazing kids and an amazing job that I truly love doing.  I couldn’t ask for anything more.  Well, maybe to not have to pay taxes.  But I would have to sell my soul for that one.

How Do I Define Womanhood:  Good heavens.  Women do everything.  EVERYTHING.  So Womanhood is EVERYTHING.

My Favorite Fashion Publication:   Vogue, all the way. 

Holy samoleans - I have to torture 5 other people with this? 

Lianne, Elke, Amber, Patrice, and Pascalle

And a special happy blogiversary to Lianne at The Makeup Girl!  {{hugs}}  Heres a martini and a sake just for you, my friend! xox

Nothing better than super fine fashion for a good cause, eh?

st-judes-fashion-benefit

 

On the evening of Wednesday, April 23, Design Cares presents A Night of a Thousand Lights, at the Roseland Ballroom in NYC - a fundraiser to benefit St. Jude Childrens Hospital.  Click the image above to see the invitation and the full listing of designers and events involved, but it will feature Marchesa designs and will be hosted by Phillip Bloch.  Expected at the event are Molly Sims, Iman, Lydia Hearst, Ivanka Trump, Vince Curatola, Tony Sirico, Diane Kruger, Fabiola Beracasa, Alana De La Garza, Olivia Palermo and Michelle Monaghan.

Oh and the gift bags (oh yes, there is swag involved!) - the gift bags feature goodies from MAC, Brooks Brothers, Sarar, Maybelline, David Barton Gym, Warren-Tricomi Salons - and the gift suite (mm hmm) has VIP items from Stila, Sarar, Skagen and Elemis. 

Wanna check out last years event? (.mov file)

For tickets and sponsorships, or just to make a donation, visit the site at StJude.org, or you can call 212-239-3239.  St. Jude is, next to Susan G. Komen Foundation, my favorite charity - they have a wonderful history of helping children and their families - I hope that if you are in or around NYC, you will consider attending.  I sure wish I could be there!
