Project Runway Recap: You Reap What You Sew

I know how much you girls hate it when I give away the punchline before the break, so here's the split-second wrap-up: some people designed some stuff, someone broke some rules and got kicked off the show, somebody won the challenge and someone else lost.

Even though she didn't know it, Mischa was wearing this adorable Scanlan & Theodore dress at the David Jones Summer Collection Launch in Sydney last night.

Scanlan & Theodore is an Australian designer with a boutique in Sydney. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a place to buy the designs online, but I have heard that some pieces can be found at certain Barneys and Saks Fifth Avenue stores as well as Harvey Nichols and Selfridges in London.

Sunglasses

Hollywood's C by Karina has The Hottest Selling Sunglasses

According to Karina, owner of C by Karina, a hot celebrity sunglass spot on Robertson Boulevard in LA, Dita's "Pusher" Aviators are the "it" glasses among A-listers.

According to Karina, owner of C by Karina, a hot celebrity sunglass spot on Robertson Boulevard in LA, Dita's "Pusher" Aviators are the "it" glasses among A-listers. I think they are FABulous! They sell for $275 and are available in gold, silver, black and white. Among these Aviator owners are: Kanye West, Angelina Jolie, Jamie Foxx and Brad Pitt.

According to Karina,

"They look good on almost everybody. They are the perfect Aviator; not too droopy and not too big. They are my #1 bestseller since they look amazing on both sexes."

Dita makes a terrific product. These glasses are constructed from titanium so they are very lightweight and comfortable. They also have a spring hinge on either side to adjust to your head for a better fit. This means they also won't squeeze your temples.

You can buy them directly from Karina (who happens to be a real sweetie) at her Roberston store or by calling her directly at 310-777-0231.

As someone with really fair skin that tends to have a lot of red in it, I am intrigued by this color corrector pen from Clinique.

According to Clinque:

Colour science visually corrects discolourations after cosmetic procedures such as dermabrasions, chemical peels or waxing. Creamy-sheer formula provides lightweight coverage in two tints that are gentle enough to apply post-procedure.

  • Red Neutralizer—Green tint visually corrects redness
  • Blue Neutralizer—Peach tint visually corrects and brightens bluish under-eye shadows or bruising.
