Red Alert: Diptyque sample sale

So I’m more than mildly obsessed with Diptyque…I even just bought one of the summer three candle sets just “because.” “Because” is really not an acceptable reason for me to spend $80 on three tiny candles (I had a $25 gift card to Saks) and now I feel incredibly guilty…but. they. just. smell. so good.

Anywho, Dina from Eye4Style, a Goddess in my book, posted this SAMPLE SALE invite. Is it true? It seems too good to be…but it is. Mark your calendars and get there EARLY.

MET-inspired gold snake bracelets

So I recently headed up to the MET to check out the new “Model as Muse” exhibit. Seriously, I almost died. After getting yelled at by security for trying to take a non-flash photo with my iPhone, I realized that I’ve never wanted to take pictures of anything else quite so much. I left feeling inspired and got a nice jolt that made me remember why I love fashion so much. Since I was already there, I also decided to check out some the other regular exhibits and I stumbled across this amazing ancient Greek snake bracelet. I immediately came home and started a search to find a similar, maybe even cuter, gold snake bracelet that isn’t dated B.C. Check out what I found…

Mascara Monday: Maybelline Lash Stiletto

So welcome to Mascara Monday, Part III. Enter Maybelline Lash Stiletto. First off, I love the name and the slogan “the only mascara that does for lashes what stilettos do for legs.”

Second, this mascara really lenghtened my lashes and the black is deep and really stays on well with no clumping or flaking. The Pro-Vitamin B-5 formula conditions and smoothes for black-patent shine! Approved.

Leighton Meester’s MTV Movie Awards Makeup

So

needless to say, I’m a big style stalker of the fabulous Leighton Meester and, lucky for me, I was able to get her makeup scoop from her makeup artist, Molly R. Stern for COVERGIRL, for last night’s MTV Movie Awards!

“Leighton’s look was sexy with an edgy feel. She wanted to look like herself while celebrating the rock ‘n roll spirit of the night. I started by basing her skin with Cle de Peau’s new cream foundation in O20. For her blush, I used Shiseido’s Accentuating Powder Blush is Glistening Brown.

On her eyes, I based them with Vincent Longo’s liquid eyeshadow in Midnight Mauve. Over that, on the inside lid into the crease, I dusted NARS night clubbing glittery powder eyeshadow. Inside her eye both bottom and top, I lined her eyes with COVERGIRL Exact Eyelights Brightening Liner in Vibrant Pearl (NEW from COVERGIRL, hitting shelves in late July!!). Her mascara is COVERGIRL LashBlast Luxe in Black Emerald. And to finish the look, she is wearing COVERGIRL Outlast Lipstain in Cinnamon Smile.”

Will Ferrell…the latest SPF product?

Nicole Richie and jewelry? Makes sense. Kim Kardashian and a butt-blasting workout video? Makes sense too. Will Ferrell and a sunscreen line? Um…I have to say that this is so out there, that it’s actually genius. In Will’s continued support for the charity, Cancer for College, 100% of the proceeds ($12 a bottle) will go towards the charity. Cancer for College is a charity that provides college scholarships for cancer survivors and amputees. “I’ve always dreamed of owning a lotion company,” Will said of his choice to create sunscreen, “And I’ve always hated cancer.” Not only are the bottles completely hilarious, but they actually WILL protect you from the sun this summer…grab them up fast.
