permalink my makeup must haves
1. Cover Girl Aquasmooth Foundation & Fresh Complexion Concealer - CVS - I have used plenty of high end foundations and concealers and due to break outs/high shine/oily skin, I always go back to covergirl.
2. St. Tropez Self Tan Bronzing Mousse - http://www.sttropeztan.com/ and they just added a new line of Bronzer Blushes and Powders!!  Def checking it out!
3. Kiss My Face Moisture Shaving Cream - wholefoods - I read about this in a magazine a few years back and had to try it.  It is silky smooth and comes in a variety of fresh scents (my favs are key lime and mint).  Razors glide like a dream.
4. MAC Lustre Lipstick in Sweetie - MAC - This is my go to lip color.  It has taken me years to find the perfect color and after Clinique AND Estee Lauder discontinued colors I swore by, I then spent two more years trying to find that perfect color again. Lustre Lipstick is smooth, easy to apply and rich in color.  Please don’t go away anytime soon!!
5. Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Extreme - CVS - I don’t think lip plumpers do anything miraculous, so I never spend any money on them (lip venom etc.), but I do love the cinnamon burning sensation and the pinkish color it temporarily adds to my lips, which is why I have no problem dropping $6 on this.  Guilt-free.

all that glitters
I’ve had this sequined bolero jacket for quite some time now (I think I got it 3 years ago?) and decided to bust it back out, especially since sequins are trendy again.  A great way to spruce up a tee and another reason to hang onto to your favorite trendy items.  Everything old becomes new again.

permalink diy jewelry
Lately I have been on a jewelry making binge, as you can tell from my recent diy posts.  I have seen a lot of awesome cocktail rings on etsy.com and loved that they used old buttons and broaches.  Great way to recycle!  So it inspired me to make some of my own creations and it is beyond easy!  I picked up my buttons at the local craft/fabric store, ordered some ring shanks on etsy.com and started gluing away.

permalink Moroccan Oil 
I have read about this product in several publications recently, as well as Rachel Zoe’s website.  Apparently it makes your hair frizz free and glamorous.  I go through beauty product phases all the time and I can feel a hair obsession phase coming on, where I will want a life changing hair cut and products to go wtih it, including this.  I usually use Kerastase hair serum, but this may be worth a shot especially if Rachel swears by it and says it will change your life.

permalink Taylor No Longer With Rachel Zoe
Not sure if this is old news, but I just came across it…for all you Rachel Zoe fans Taylor is out!
Read the article from people.com:
November 6, 2009
Bananas!
Taylor Jacobson, who has worked with stylist Rachel Zoe for four years as seen on Bravo’s The Rachel Zoe Project, was fired this morning, effective immediately, according to sources.
Jacobson, who was often at odds with her boss and coworkerBrad Goreski on the reality show but helped Zoe’s celebrity styling business run smoothly, wrote on her Twitter account: “Today is an end of an era and a beginning of a new professional chapter. Looking forward to what the future brings…!!!”
No word on the cause behind the termination or the future of the reality show, which has shot for two seasons.
Meanwhile, Jacobson is reportedly saying it was her decision to leave. Fashionista.com posted an email that she sent to her contacts: “After four amazing years at Rachel Zoe Corporation, I’m saddened and exhilarated at the same time to announce my departure. After much thought and consideration, I have decided to take the challenging leap to go off and style on my own.”
Zoe’s rep Carrie Gordon would only confirm to PEOPLE, “Taylor Jacobson is no longer with Rachel Zoe, Inc.”–Julie Jordan

permalink look of the day
I absolutely love her outfit.  I normally don’t like lace or see thru tops or lace see thru tops for that matter, but strangely I found myself LOVING this.  If I lived in LA  and had a rocking hot body I would def step out in this number.  Side note - Add on life to do list: move to LA, get a rocking hot body, and wear this outfit.  I think she pulls it off well, tastfully well, by adding nude accessories (shoes and clutch), as well as pairing it with simple well tailored skinny black jeans and keeping the jewelry to a minimal (bangles).  For me it’s a daring win win.
