One of my favorite new products from convention – the Motives Weightless Moisturizer – has been creating quite a bit of buzz in the press! Earlier this morning NBC Miami called it “ideal for women on the run” and “quick and mess free”! Plus, we already know how great the product is for men interested in skincare.

Curves Done Right: Christina Hendricks for London Fog

August 25th // 10 Comments

After yesterday’s intense discussion over plus-size model Crystal Renn’s new ads for Chanel and Jean Paul Gaultier, I thought it important to share the new London Fog campaign with you. London Fog really got it right when choosing the size 12 Christina Hendricks as their spokesmodel – she looks amazing and the company does a great job of showing off, not hiding, her curves:

The Mad Men star has been quoted saying:

“London Fog is a classic brand, which I love. It also ties in to Mad Men, we used London Fog in the show and this is a nice way to tie everything together. The trench is such an iconic shape for men and women. It works for anyone — it worked in the 1960s and it works now.”
