FAUX BOB

Rodarte sisters started this fall’s hairstyle trend by creating a faux bob which is inspired by Australia in the 20′s.

A colorful nail collection by Thakoon for Nars
Posted on 16-03-2012
 

In one of the season’s more colorful collaborations, the designer Thakoon Panichgul of Thakoon has made a limited-edition series of lacquers for Nars based on the brights from his spring runway. “The prints in that collection were inspired by the rich color palette of India — the spices, the holy festivals,” Panichgul says. According to the designer, when the Nars team, who did the beauty look for the show, first saw the color boards, “we immediately realized that it made perfect sense to do a nail project together.” The Thakoon for Nars polishes  will be available May 1.

Chanel Sky Line Nail Polish
Posted on 31-01-2012
 

When it comes to nail polish, if Chanel says “Jump,” we say, “How high?” Thus, we were instantly smitten when we received this preview image of the nail polish that debuted at the CHANEL HAUTE COUTURE SPRING 2012 show last week in Paris. Appropriately titled Sky Line, the pretty sky blue nail polish has a gentle shimmer that will fit in perfectly with a summer wardrobe. Even better, the polish is part of an entire collection, titled Bleu Illusion, which will include navy blue eye liner, a rosy pink powder blush, eyeshadow in different blue hues, a creamy lip color, and more. What can we say? Bring on summer! The Bleu Illusion is set to arrive at Chanel counters, as well as online at Chanel.com, in July.

The most sparkly to seductive New Fragrances
Posted on 22-11-2011
 

OSCAR DE LA RENTA LIVE IN LOVE

Of the fragrance’s name, Vogue‘s Andre Leon Talley declared on Twitter, “That’s my new mantra. It’s brilliant.” This intense floral—a blend of jasmine, rose, and orchid—never overpowers thanks to grounding notes like cedar and sandalwood.

BOTTEGA VENETA

Hewing closely to the brand’s minimal but luxurious aesthetic, this is one beautifully bottled scent. The leathery floral is somewhat dirty, which gives it a primal quality. But fresh jasmine and citrusy bergamot notes keep it ladylike and modern.

DOLCE & GABBANA VELVET SUBLIME

If you love citrus, this might become your new favorite scent. Zesty orange blossom and intoxicating neroli transport you to warmer climes—and the elegant purple-capped bottle doesn’t look like a vacation tchotchke.

TOM FORD JASMIN ROUGE If it’s spice you’re after, look no further than Jasmin Rouge. This is no entry-level scent: Ford threw in the whole spice cabinet—ginger, cardamom, and cinnamon—then laced this fragrance with vanilla for sweetness and amber for depth. The result? The extra-sweaty sexiness that has become Ford’s stock-in-trade with, well, everything.

ELIE SAAB LE PARFUM

The designer’s namesake perfume strikes the same tone as his dresses always have: feminine, but not frivolous. Orange blossom, jasmine, patchouli, and cedar, inspired by Saab’s native Lebanon, make this scent creamy and warm, but it somehow manages to retain a lovely lightness.

CHANEL JERSEY

Part of Chanel’s Les Exclusifs fragrance collection, Jersey has a masculine edge that comes courtesy of its star ingredient: lavender. Long used in men’s colognes, lavender is fresh and calming. Add in a little sweetness (vanilla) and heft (musk), and you’ve got a scent that’s as weighty as the fabric for which it’s named.

The devil is in the detail with beauty now with the main focus on nail and lash-transforming accessories to make for a super-groomed look.
