Nikki Reed vs Ashley Greene in cutout gowns at Breaking Dawn NYC premiere

November 17th // 5 Comments

We are literally hours away from Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part I hitting theaters! Following their LA premiere, the Twilight cast headed east for last night’s NYC premiere and both Nikki Reed and Ashley Greene chose colorbocked, cutout gowns to wear on the red carpet. Nikki selected a neon Michael Kors dress while Ashley chose classic black and white Donna Karan. This is a toughy but only one Twilight co-star can win this fashion faceoff. Who wore it better?

Would you buy a swimsuit designed by Mad Men’s Christina Hendricks?

June 29th // 3 Comments

Curvy Mad Men star Christina Hendricks graces the cover of Lucky magazine’s August issue with her signature red hair and a gorgeous nude dress by Donna Karan. During the interview Christina opened up about the difficulties of shopping for her figure: “It’s really hard to find a bathing suit if you have breasts. You either get smooshed down or there’s no support. My husband and I have sketched out designs.”

Sketched out designs? I would love to see them! She is a role model for women everywhere and I think a swimwear line could be such a successful business venture for her. Definitely has potential!

Would you buy a swimsuit designed by Christina Hendricks?

NYFW Beauty: Donna Karan (how-to with Motives®)

February 16th // 3 Comments

The color combo of Pepto-pink and shimmery toffee at the Donna Karan show is the latest beauty favorite from New York Fashion Week! This look is simple to recreate with Motives and is actually wearable if you tone down the amount of shadow used near the eyes.

After prepping with Eye Base, apply Eye Candy Creme Shadow in Butterscotch on your top lids and lower lash line for a halo effect. Use one coat of Lustrafy Mascara in Dark Chocolate.

Make sure to use the new Motives Lip Lock for the next part! Prep the lips with that first and then line them with Lip Crayon in Neutral. Fill in with a coat of Lip Boost in Risk.
