Ladies, this season, it's all about the brights! Rock your eye-popping pinks and violets for day, and vivid color combinations for evening. If you haven't already checked out the new line of Motives® pressed pigments, I highly recommend them! They come in fierce shades that really make a statement! I like to wear pretty, summery shadows during the day, and then make my evening look pop even more with false lashes. Falsies and Motives® Lustrafy mascara create the most gorgeous, spidery lashes ever! Bright, bright mermaid inspired eye shadow and ultra-sexy, long lashes are SO hot this season.



Motives® Pressed Pigment Powders are highly pigmented powders that glide on easily for an intense color effect and haute couture look. Go bold this season -- achieve the fun and flirty look above using colors from the Limited Edition Motives® 2009 Summer Collection.

You may remember that I wrote about Ideeli a while back. They are one of my many favorite places to visit in part because you can get designer goods like clothing, sunglasses, jewelry and more all at significantly reduced prices.

Starting tomorrow at 11:00 am (EST). It is their "Start of Summer Red Sale" at Ideeli.com. What this means for you is that tomorrow only (until they are sold out), you can pick-up some really great items at tremendous values that are "fashion-centsible."

Here's just a sampling of items that will be on-sale tomorrow on Ideeli.com starting at 11:00 am EST.

Mac and Jac available at Ideeli.com


Jay Godfrey available at Ideeli.com

One last thing to mention, apart from the great designers and deals, Ideeli.com is invitation only -- but guess what! I've got invitations for everyone. Click here to shop at Ideeli.com and start saving on designer goods!

Lots of love,

The latest addition to the ever expanding M.J. empire is the recession-friendly basics line Jacob by Marc Jacobs, which hit stores this past week. Everything—with the exception of a set of straw fedoras—is under $100, including a cashmere sweater, some playfully bright bangles, even a leather-trimmed tote. But as much as I love the idea of accessible Marc Jacobs, I’m still a little torn over just how wide this designer can spread himself and still feel fresh and innovative. I mean, a T-shirt can be anywhere from $10 to $1000 depending on which level you want to shop at. What do you think?

Molded Resin Bangles, $5 at MarcJacobs.com

Cracked leather belt, $40 at MarcJacobs.com

Rubber ID Case, $10 at MarcJacobs.com

Mixed Python Small Tote, $49 at MarcJacobs.com

What an exciting few days it has been! I'm absolutely exhausted, but I feel wonderful! Last night, I hosted the first-ever Motives by Loren Ridinger Muse event for beauty editors from some of the top fashion and beauty magazines out there. I'm talking Good Housekeeping, Lucky, SELF, Allure, US Weekly -- it was fantastic! I showed several looks inspired by some of the most gorgeous women in history--think Marilyn Monroe, Ava Gardner, etc. The editors were very impressed with the line. I can't wait to share photos from the fabulous event with you. I'll upload them for you as soon as I decompress, whew! Here are some images from the event invitation to tide you over. Until then, I'm going to reward myself with a nice, warm bubble bath and a long nap!












Lots of Love,
Loren
