During the Golden Globes last Sunday, there was one beauty combo we couldn't keep our eyes off of: the smoky eye and nude lip. We saw it interpreted by three ladies, each who pulled it off flawlessly. We love the contrast of the dark, dramatic eye with the subtle feminine lip. A nude lip can scare some people off, but don't freak yet. The trick is finding the perfect shade to match your come...

Are you a #selfie taker? Fellow CA staff member Miranda is a selfie addict. I just caught her taking one as we got into the elevator on our way to lunch, just sayin'. I myself, am not a huge fan of selfies. They make me self conscious and usually I end up the one behind the lens instead. Of course, we're all our own worst critic. How many times have you snapped a selfie, checked it out and...

2014 is a huge year for me.  I’m officially done having babies (my youngest, Lina is 6 months old) and I have some pretty substantial goals lined up for myself.  One of those goals is to get really fit.  And by fit I don’t mean skinny. I mean toned in a way that would make Gwyneth Paltrow - but not Madonna -  proud.  So, I thought what better motivation...

IMO, award shows are usually a total snorefest. I'm not the only who feels this way either. Gwyneth P and hubby Chris Martin agree apparently. I have to say though, this year I kind of enjoyed myself. Tina and Amy were HIGH-larious as per usual, Emma Thompson's martini induced speech was amazing and this may have been one of the best year's fashion-wise. With the exception of JLaw and Dior's very...

Four power house women graced the cover of Elle for their Women in TV issue. Mindy Kaling (i.e. my soulmate and spirit animal), Allison Williams (of my fave TV show, Girls), Amy Poehler (SO funny) and Zooey Deschanel (a.k.a. my pretend BFF). Each of the covers was so fierce and attention demanding that it seemed only necessary to write about it so I could day dream about the awesome shopping trips...

I am in the unfortunate situation of being both incredibly lazy and loving beauty products. When I'm at home, or coming from the office, my usual look is subtle, natural and laid back. Hairs in a bun and clothes are mostly easy, throw on basics. However, there are occasions that need me to quickly take my lazy Alex look and bring it to fancy schmancy professional Alex. Interviews, meetings, dates,...
