A hot sizzling trend of the season is a nude lip. You might feel that matching your lip color to your skin tone will look weird or boring. However, au contraire that is when the real magic and dramatics begin!
This classy look when done properly draws just as much attention as a bolder more boisterous shade would. Be very careful to make sure all dead skin as well as flakes have been removed prior to lip tint application. Failure to do so could result in the final result looking like your lips are bumpy and that is so not cute. This trend gives off a very natural and sophisticated vibe.
We are fans of MAC Cosmetics Pedro Lourenco Summer 2014 lipstick collection. We recommend the MAC Cosmetics Pedro Lourenco Summer 2014 Peach Beige lipstick to achieve a nude lip. Happy shopping!
Beauty Notes: This is kind off topic, but not really! HA! Here are a few more shades from the MAC Cosmetics Pedro Lourenco Summer 2014 collection that we thought were simply stunning.
Shade: ROXO
Shade: RUBY
We heard this one and had to take a spritz in honor of the lovely Nia Long! Nia has become the first African American
spokesperson for White Diamonds, the wildly popular fragrance made famous by Hollywood icon Elizabeth Taylor. Long has been a fixture in film both in front as well as behind the camera. Talented, beautiful and now leaving she is leaving her mark in the beauty world as well.
Elizabeth Taylor’s White Diamonds perfume not only made women feel strong and sexy, but helped a good cause. While alive proceeds from the White Diamonds fragrance benefited the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation. Congratulations Nia and to quote Rihanna, “Shine bright like a diamond!”
Needing a new lip color to mesmerize the masses? The Rouge G De Guerlain Summer 2014 collection has exactly what any diva is looking for! Like several other collections you win some and lose some. Meaning some of the shades are here to stay while others are only for this season. The collection brings on 5 permanent tints as well as 2 limited edition colors.
What we also love is the lipstick’s overall formula. There are plenty of lipsticks on the market that can be quite drying, not this collection. Your lips will stay smooth and kissable thanks to the product’s hydrating and smoothing properties.
Don’t ruin an amazing outfit with the wrong handbag or clutch. Summer fashions usually incorporate lighter colors including ivory and whites. This Brian Atwood clutch is perfect for such fashions as well as darker ensembles in order to give such a look an extra pop. The sequined design is exquisitely breath-taking and sure to draw attention.
Makeup shouldn’t be so serious, you should always have fun trying out new looks and trends. MAC Cosmetics wants us gals to all go to Playland with their stunning summer collection. The shades are boisterous yet luxurious. With such diverse tints available you will be able to create a fabulous chic summer look. However, better get them while you can, because these little pretties are limited edition.

Now here is a menswear collection with some serious roots! Designer Laurence Chauvin Buthaud’s S/S 2014 collection bridges together two cultures, African and European. Buthaud’s travels served as her inspiration and infused her collection with rich colors as well as prints that prove couture can be timeless no matter where you are from. Enjoy the spread and be sure to with us your fashion thoughts!
Well well well, hello there beautiful! You can feel sexy by the clothes you wear, the way you style your hair and by the fragrance you spritz. Victoria’s Secret never disappoints in making a woman feel like a sassy superstar. Their Bombshell perfume contains notes of vanilla orchid, purple passion fruit and Shangri-la peony. This intoxicating blend will have you feeling like a Bombshell in seconds.
Application Tip: Enjoy your favorite scent longer by applying your fragrance after your shower. Skin absorbs more after it is wet.
These sandals are simply FABULOUS! The ankle straps, metal detailing and intricate design shout, ” I’m chic purchase me!” We hear New Look loud and clear with their collection especially with this particular pair of sandals. They are the perfect example of a summer shoe that can translate easily from daytime wear to a night out excursion.
