So I know I’m way behind on the wedge sneaker trend.
I always thought it looked super cute but I hesitated for a few reasons.
Here are my reasons and why they don’t stick now (I rationalize very hard lol):
One, I rarely walk out in sneakers so I figured when would I end up using them?
They give a totally different vibe! They take it up a notch, so they are more shoes than sneakers but are still very casual.
Plus, I have enough shoes.
Never!
I just got the Urban Decay Naked Palette 2. I was super thrilled to have gotten it at Sephora.com because they keep going out of stock. They are also sold at Ulta.com and Urbandecay.com. It retails for about $50.
This palette is a follow up to the best selling original Naked Palette. I do not have that one so I can’t compare but here is my review of the product as is.
Packaging: Quite sleek, and it has a really nice mirror for on the go touch ups. The case itself from what I hear is a lot more sturdy than the original. It is now made of tin, I think, and clicks shut, while the other was made of cardboard and closed I believe with a magnet. I also would think that this exterior would be simpler to wipe clean because of it’s smooth texture, as I’ve heard the other material snagged dust and dirt very easily and was impossible to wipe clean.
Pallete: The colors are really beautiful. They are mainly browns, bronzes and taupes in addition to a perfect matte black. This is where my first disappointment comes in. I know that this is supposed to be a neutral pallete but I personally would have loved to see Continue reading
A huge trend for the fall 2011/winter 2012 season has been the Peter Pan collar.
It’s really amazing what a well placed collar can do to an outfit. The rounded edged collar brings it up a notch, adding a girly sophistication to the look. Depending on size and materiel of the outfit, the collar can also create a “vintage-y” effect. From completely embellished collars, to minimal ones in plain white, it is the current must have for any fashionista!
Here are some photos of it being worn on runways and celebrities alike.
I absolutely love love love Victoria Beckham’s style. She has an aura of sophistication.
She always looks impeccable. That includes obviously when she’s dressed for a party or night out, and just as much on her casual looking days when she’s out with her beautiful kids and hubby! She can pull off anything.
And I totally envy her closet! Her bags, her shoes and clothes, I love them all. When she’s not wearing the intentional “over-sized, loose fitting” look, her clothes are tailored so perfectly on her body it’s as if she was sewn into them. I always get my clothes tailored-I hate when things don’t fit just perfect. It is a rare instance when right off the hanger it fits perfectly. Many people just put on an outfit not caring about strange pulls or creases. Ahhh lol-that’s a major pet peeve of mine!
