Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThere's a discrepancy in what I can afford and in what I want. I want a whole lot more than my wallet will allow for. Le sigh. Ain't it always like that? Ah well. Instead of ending up in serious debt, I covet items and stare longingly at them for hours online. This is especially true of beauty products. I've got a lust list a mile long of products that I would adore to have. At the top of...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI mentioned a while back that even though in recent months I had been abstaining from eye makeup, I had just gotten bit by the smoky eye bug. Well, now I've moved on to bigger and better things. After a detour in 'puppy eye' land, I am now firmly in cat eye territory.
Right now I am using Essence Stays No Matter What 24hr Waterproof Eyeliner Pen which is great for the price, but I've just about...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basIsn't it the way it always goes? When summer hits, I immediately crave sweater weather and when fall comes around, I yearn for sunshine, flowers and beaches. In an effort to stop my whining and bring a little spring into my step, I decided to start injecting some spring beauty into my daily routine.
Sure, it may not be the 'of the now' jewelled smoky eye. But you know, what? I don't care. These...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWhat are you up to this weekend, chicks? After the epicness that was ShopCrawl, I'm looking forward to spending some quality time curled up on a couch and catching up on Netflix (Breaking Bad marathon, anyone?). Aside from vegetating, I may also break out my DIY kit and work on a little home improvement project or perhaps cook a delicious meal!
To help with your weekend plans I found a few...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe 2013 Emmy Awards recently took place and I guess, people won or something? There were gold statues given out or whatever? To be honest, I wasn't really paying a whole lot of attention. Can you tell?
First of all, dude, awards shows are like, long. But more than that, I could barely keep my focus. You see, I am easily distracted by pretty things and there were many pretty things to be seen...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basFall is really here, and I'm loving it. This means I want burgundy, emerald, purples, blues and all the shades in between. I'm not a pastel type of gal, so spring and summer shades don't do a whole lot for me. Jewel tones for fall is where it's at.
If you're on the same page as me, you're likely looking to spruce up your makeup bag this season with a few gorgeous lip and polish colours. We've...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI put my skin through a lot (long nights, little sleep, cocktails and salty but oh so delicious foods), and in turn, it rebels. I can't really blame it. When it does get angry, I try and calm it with a few beauty products and give it some much needed TLC.
My go to products include masks and moisturizers and of course, I'm always on the hunt for something new and better. This week, we want you...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI have what may be some shocking news for you ladies. You may want to sit down. Ready?
Here it is: Birkenstocks are back and bigger than ever.
At the Spring 2014 runway shows in New York, Houghton (left) had custom Birkenstocks for the catwalk. They weren't the only label taking a lax approach to fashion week. Edun (right), Shades of Grey (middle) and Tina Turk all put models in comfy flat...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basAnyone who knows me, knows I love the movie Clueless. That closet scene?! Ugh, I die. Besides being a major style inspiration (hello, she's the lady who introduced a young Alexandra to Calvin Klein and Alaia!) Clueless has offered up such dialogue gems as 'Kind of a Baldwin' and 'As if!'. So it's safe to say, that Clueless is an epic and iconic film.
So when I found out that NCLA developed a...
