The Look | Tomboy Terrain

There is so much pressure that comes along with being a woman. You’re expected to wear sky-high heels 24-7 and keep your hair and makeup done at movie star standards. Of course this is all to be maintained while running around making things happen. I will be the first to admit it can be tiring. Sometimes...

Naomi Campbell Tapped for New Oxygen Reality Modeling Show – “The Face”

Just when I said I was through with all the cattiness and bitter fights that go along with reality tv, the Oxygen network made me eat my words.

Joe Fresh Flagship Store Brings Spark Back to New York Shopping

Joe Fresh Flagship Store Brings Spark Back to New York Shopping

I’m a picky shopper. A bit of a snob if you will. New York is supposed to be one of the major fashion capitols of the world, yet there isn’t much variety here. I would say this lack of variety all began once H&M, Zara, and Forever 21 began to eat this city alive. I...

Discussion: Do Men Want You to Sleep in Makeup?

Going to bed with a guy can be a scary thing. Especially if you are an anxiety-driven type-a personality like me. Not only do you stress out about your panties being sexy enough, but then there’s looking good in them. Oh and for us makeup lovers, there is that added bonus of whether we leave...

Tom Ford’s Drool Worthy Sandals for Summer 2012

Join me in drooling over these Tom Ford sandals for Spring/Summer 2012. The man is a genius. He knows exactly what women want. Okay, he knows all except for the fact that we can’t afford to spend a month’s rent on a pair of sandals. Images via High Snobette

Style ID: Beyonce Steps Out with Blue Wearing Thakoon Pre-Spring ’12

Our favorite celebu-mommy hit the streets with three-month old Blue Ivy during one of NYC’s warmest days yet. The songstress rocked an easy, breezy t-shirt style dress from Thakoon’s Pre-Spring Collection. In true Beyonce fashion, she paired the look with her staple high bun, dark round shades and bright red lip. I can’t think of a look more...

Recap: Makeup Madness at IMATS New York 2012

I feel like I have been a bad blogger when it comes to providing detailed fashion and beauty event coverage. Forgive me? My not-so-convenient work schedule makes it hard to make it out and many go a-miss. Fortunately, that was not the case this weekend when the ‘Schedule Gods’ descended their grace in my favor,...
