Dior Velvet Eyeliner

These puppies have mixed reviews online, but I still cant help but be fascinated! They are velvet eye liner appliques and they stick on like a sticker and you can peel them off and reuse them. I am definitely tempted to buy these. I love the makeup designers at Dior, they definitely know there stuff!  The bottom ones have swarovski crystals. What do you think?

Sunday Shenanigans

This Sunday I wanted to present you with something different, something more interactive, more heartfelt. Music is something that inspires us all. I personally am not a musician, only in my dreams at night...but music is something that has inspired and sometimes guided my life. So I thought I would bring you some music that might guide your life in the direction you would like to go, maybe it can create peace in your day or make you smile. Maybe it can help you reflect, or bring your thoughts to a place of clarity. Here are just a few artists that have inspired me and that have helped me live in the now, if only for a moment. I hope you have a lovely  musical Sunday! Thank you for reading and following my blog! 

Calvin Klein Fashionably Multi-Tasks

Your eyes are not playing tricks on you my dear sweet readers...these Calvin Klein Sunglasses also have a built in USB stick. Brilliant! I am such a fan of items that multi-task! You cant go wrong! 

USB Chic

I like my geek gear to look chic and in these modern times this is a request that is easily granted. Being a blogger, I keep two things on me at all times...my camera and my USB drive. Well after about 2 years my USB has really hung in and served me well! But it is getting a little beat up and I think it is time for a little upgrade. Here are some chic USB ideas:

Olivia Wilde's look Perfected

The hair style, the highlights, the tan, the eye make up, the lip color, the dress....Olivia is on fire! I absolutely love the hue of her lip color, it is perfectly matched to her coloring. It isn't distracting to her look and yet is somehow still bold. Walking that brilliant fashion tight rope with the perfect balance and seemingly greatest of ease. Olivia Wilde...I salute you!

My New Red Shoes

Okay...Okay, they are not mine yet...But they will be very, very soon! After searching and searching for a red pair that had a classic design with that timeless quality we all love, while at the same time I wanted them to be somewhat unique. I am high maintenance, I know this! Especially when it comes to shoes...I know what I like! My feet are my best feature, so I need to choose wisely. 
After soul searching (get it?) and budgeting and shopping, and shopping, and shopping (life is hard, huh?) I have chosen THE pair for me... BEHOLD:

I will be buying them this week at Nordstom's, they are currently selling for $149.95. 
I think they are modern while still somehow remaining true to some classic shape that is fun with the wedge. The ankle strap is wonderful and the heel is high but with the platform they are not too high. Which means that I will be able to wear them comfortably around the office for work! Lovely! What do you think?

Fashion Week Street Style for your Sunday Shenanigans

I called my Mother when I saw this outfit. She used to make me pants just like this back in the late 80's/early 90's. They are totally comfortable and all my friends wanted a pair. When wearing pants like this wear a platform wedge and a cropped jacket and you will be showing off your cute hips and elongating your legs in no time! Comfortable and fun! ("Mom, let's buy some fabric and get to that sewing machine.")

A POP of color, then everything else neutral and black. This look works to show off her skinny mini physique. 

A girl cant go wrong with a horizontal stripped top!

Perfect way to wear your pants with ankle boots.  Loving this relaxed look! Perfect for Sunday's by the way!

Leather, Leather, Grey, Black. Put it all together and you get rocker chic!

How very Mad Men. I am loving the unique cut to her shoes. It really is all on the details. 

Long Skirt + Leather Jacket =  DONE! Perfection.

Mixing Red's and purples with a relaxed fit, wonderful! And then the white shoes just make this outfit  POP!

Preppy and fancy!

Peach, delicate and perfect. Plus it blends with so many other colors so nicely. This has a very nice cut to it, it might even be vintage. 

I am loving the kick ass skirt with the relaxed tee. Always a good choice!

Very in this season to mix reds and purples. I could see this being on trend for the Christmas season this winter!  A local and budget friendly place to shop this trend is at Express. (p.s. her bracelet is massive!)

This look really deserves a blog entry all on its own! I LOVE this look. Its relaxed and on trend.  I adore how her hair has a delicate pink hue on the ends. I want this outfit! She is officially my fashion week, fashion hero!

White blended with off white. Delicate and charming!  I also like how her skirt is very tailored and has strong lines, but she softens the feel with a gentle and relaxed tee. 

I like how she has worn a long sleeved shirt with a mini skirt. It brings emphasis to her legs and tones the look down just a bit. 

This dress falls perfectly on her physique. It helps that she is probably a model herself, but still. Girl looks good! 

Gentle Pink with Grey, you cant go wrong. And I LOVE this bag with the studs on the bottom!
