Eversince Shopbop has introduced their "My Hearts," I have been religiously adding and extracting my favorites in. Somehow, there has been a trend, one of which is "Black & White."

Eva Green

Everyone says that smoldery smokey eyes are not supposed to go along with completely matte red lip. Now Eva tells us otherwise..... but I guess its only allowed to her. haha.

This was the beginning of everyone's love and "dream" (haha) for pink cigarettes.... The Dreamers.



A boudoir shot.

This one's smokey with glossy red lip. still works.
more smokey with red lipstick-- if I wear this look, Eva is the enabler.

too..... hot.....
such an icon.

Stanick's.

This is the Stanick's and I love them.
Lorraine and Peter.... love them.
Check out Lorraine's video on her channel on Youtube: TheCurrentCustom and TheCurrentBoobies.... if you would like.
She is so much fun to watch.... everyday. lol

Black is the new Black..

Now this phrase is a cliche, but could we deny it?
According to Net-A-Porter, it is going to persist.... for...ever??

Urban Romanticism: vol. 1

Marchesa ss2011 is amazing. It sums up everything we expect from NY-based designer mixed with the romanticism that is transcendent of our era of rigidity and captures all the fantasies of all modern women.






As for our modern representative, Anne Dello Russo is definitely an epitome of urban romantist. This feathery dress is a dream come true.
As for more classic icon, Veronica Lake in this greco-roman style dress sums up what all women desire to be, in terms of their fashion and beauty. This is a true iconic image.

Moisturize Thyself

Now that it is winter, and your heater is on, you need to get your moisture on! These are some of my favs.
Stila Lip pot in Cerise (Cherry Red color)

I got Stila lip pots in a set of three. My favorite color was Baie (a light mauve pink). These are wonderful. If you like MAC tendertones (which are limited editions), these would be nice alternatives.
Tocca Hand creme in Stella (Citrus floral scent)

I love the scent of this hand cream a lot. If you like Tocca fragrances, you will love this! My personal fave of the Tocca fragrance is Guiletta, but Stella is quite nice.
Kiehl's BRIGHT brightening botanical moisture fluid (lightweight moisturizer)
This is very light-weight: great for oily skin, but maybe not enough moisture for dry skin.

Fresh Brown Sugar Hand creme (very intensive hand creme with sugary lemon scent)
Origins Drink Up 10 minute moisture mask (quick pick-me up in the morning!)

Keep this in the fridge, and you will thank me for that forever. It is super moisturizing.
Smith's Rosebud Salve (rose scented lip/cuticle/anything balm)
This is a classic and I probably repurchased this 3 times. I love the scent of this.
Hope this helps
