Simply Fab: Benefit Rush Hour

Rush Hour by Benefit, $20, is a new ultra slim lipstick for Spring.

Rush Hour by Benefit, $20, is a new ultra slim lipstick for Spring. What's so cool about this is it can also be used for your eyes and cheeks to give your face a brightened glow with one product! It's not so much that a multi-stick is a revolutionary idea, this one just happens to be so much creamier and smoother than anything I've ever used.

This is a great product for the gal on the go because it requires no messy brushes. All you need to do is blend and go! It is available in one neutral shade called Sunberry which is deemed suitable for all skin tones.

I also love the great gold packaging, and since metallics are clearly sticking around, you will look chic pulling out this shiny tube!

Hey JennaV, I've just noticed that you like this product too. What can I say, I guess great minds think alike!

Spring Peek: The New Suits

Judging by your response from the recent Look of The Day: Androgynous Cool I think lots of you will be excited for this Spring Peek.

Judging by your response from the recent Look of The Day: Androgynous Cool I think lots of you will be excited for this Spring Peek. Menswear inspired suiting was a prevalent look on the runways and I think it was refreshing and sharp at the same time. Whether deconstructed or perfectly tailored, like at Chloe (pictured here), The New Suits are as empowering for women as ever before. Move over boys!

Trend Alert: Mini Hoops

Mini hoops are making a big statement in 2007, proving that less is more.

Mini hoops are making a big statement in 2007, proving that less is more. Stars like Hilary Duff are downsizing their chandelier earrings, and circus size hoops for the smaller, daintier mini hoop as shown in this week's issue of Life & Style. With award season approaching, I wonder if we will be seeing this new jewelry trend on the red carpet?

Beauty Spring Peek: Fresh & Tan

The face at the Matthew Williamson Spring 2007 Fashion Show was fresh and tan and not too over done.

The face at the Matthew Williamson Spring 2007 Fashion Show was fresh and tan and not too over done. This look was inspired from a fun loving girl on vacation in Ibiza and is meant to let the inner you shine on through.

This Spring Peek will draw attention to your clothes, your smile and especially to your eyes. I also love how he paired the Beauty Spring Peek: Loose Waves & Center Parts with such a neutral face to create an ultra soft and effortless look.

New Mascara Alert! Cover Girl Lash Exact Mascara

This new Cover Girl Lash Exact Mascara, $6.89, is so awesome it is being modeled by the bold and beautiful Queen Latifah.

This new Cover Girl Lash Exact Mascara, $6.89, is so awesome it is being modeled by the bold and beautiful Queen Latifah. This mascara has also been featured in this month's Lucky Magazine. It is revolutionary because it claims to be both clump and glob free!

It is formulated with thickening polymers to add thickness, and the new Lash Exact brush is made from smooth plastic bristles with extra spokes to hit each lash. This mascara keeps all of the bristles perfectly aligned so you can achieve that healthy and freshly separated lashes look everyone strives for.

Now you can get a free Lash Exact Mascara, by trading in one of your old drug store brand mascaras to Cover Girl. How awesome!

The mascara is available in very black, black, brown and brown/black and also comes in a waterproof version as well.

Love It or Hate It

Balenciaga Tank Platform Heel: Love It or Hate It?

I think this may be the ultimate love it or hate it.

I think this may be the ultimate love it or hate it. We all know by now that intergalactic planetary was one of the biggest trends on the Spring runways. Cruel and unusual shoes were actually in several shows this season. I can not get over the insanity of this Balenciaga Tank Platform Heel. I don't know what the price of these dynamos are, they have yet to be released, so why don't you all take a wild guess. Some of you may be wondering: who the hell would buy this and who can walk in this? It is a little known fact that extreme heels like this are just for show and often brands reduce platforms from 1.5 to 2 centimeters from the ones in the shows. Believe it or not, this does make a difference.

So onto the good stuff: love this lethal shoe or hate it?
