Look of the Day

Look of The Day: Casual Interview

Earlier today I asked you all to go Fab Finding for a networking happy hour outfit.

Earlier today I asked you all to go Fab Finding for a networking happy hour outfit. I stumbled upon this casual interview outfit posted by aembry396 and thought it would be great to share. We receive a lot of inquires about work wear so I thought this was a fab example of a casual interview outfit. She wore this for a summer interview for a volunteer position at a nonprofit organization and I think it's very fitting.

She is today's Look Book Look of the Day!

Here's what she is wearing:

  • Navy pinstripe pants: J.Crew
  • Navy floral blazer: Gap
  • Baby pink shell: J.Crew
  • Baby pink pumps: Nine West

Congrats to aembry396!

New from MAC, is their most fabulous lipglass addition, called Couture Lipglass, $20.00. This super sheer, extraordinary lip shine leaves your lips feeling soft and cushioned. It's not nearly as sticky as the original lipglass and has more of a smooth look to it.

The packaging has also been specially designed for this high-end gloss. It comes in a gunmetal studded package and the tubes are square and black (normally they are round). This gloss is only available at MAC boutiques and online in four fab colors:

  • Prestigious is a sheer dark plum with golden pearly highlights.
  • Magnificent is a sheer bright pink with white pearly highlights.
  • Collection '06 is a sheer soft pinky peach with golden pearly highlights
  • Savoir Faire is a sheer light caramello shade with golden pearl highlights
Celebrity Style

Celebrity Style: Kate Moss

Kate Moss sure has been in the public eye lately, and we love how her fashions never let us down.

Kate Moss sure has been in the public eye lately, and we love how her fashions never let us down. She was spotted dressed down in London this week braving the cold while leaving a friend's house. Her bright red cheetah print scarf really makes this outfit, and let me just say it is quite refreshing to see such a fashionista sporting last season's garb. Check out how Kate is using a makeup bag as a clutch - nice touch! To get this look, check out what we found.

Come Fab Finding With Me: A Networking Happy Hour

Recently, I went to a career networking happy hour, and I had wardrobe issues when picking out my outfit the night before.

Recently, I went to a career networking happy hour, and I had wardrobe issues when picking out my outfit the night before. I wanted to wear something interesting, comfortable, and of course, fashionable - but not overly trendy. It was a media networking event, and in San Francisco so I didn't have to dress up very much. Regardless, it was a hard decision! I ended up wearing this outfit with a cute pinstripe jacket to make it a tad more professional. I felt pretty good about it, but my Marc by Marc Jacobs shoes were hurting me by the end of the night. Seeing as how a lot of standing and talking is required at such an event, my shoe choice was not the best. I'm going to start you off with this Mint Shadow Floral Tank, on sale for $169.40 (originally $242).

Let's all go Fab Finding to find: a fab blazer, pants or a skirt, comfortable shoes, and a laptop bag. Be sure to come back and tell me your Fab Finds are up, or just tag your Fab Finds with networking happy hour. To learn what a Fab Find is and how to make one, click here.

Beauty Spring Peek: Bangs

Big bang baby!

Big bang baby! Bangs are back! Just look at these delicate bangs at the Spring 2007 Marchesa show. This was the first show for these fancy shmancy designers and I must say, their evening dresses were gorgeous...all 26 of them!

The concept for the show was "Paparazzi Ready." The girls looked glam in their super short or super long dresses, soft and sweet looking makeup and their hair swept back in an updated ballet bun with bangs! And how much ooomphf did Reeses' bangs give her at the Golden Globes Monday night? Be sure to check out more of my Spring Peeks.

Designer Spotlight

Designer Spotlight: Lerario Beatriz

Here is one PYT (pretty young thing) making her mark on the world of fashion.

Here is one PYT (pretty young thing) making her mark on the world of fashion. And I mean world. Brazilian designer Ana Beatriz Lerario arrived in New York knowing she wanted to open a store. After taking classes at Parsons and The Fashion Institute of Technology she landed an internship at Marc Jacobs - lucky much? She worked there for four years and as she dreamed, opened a store called Fiftytwo Showroom where she exhibits fellow designers like Reyes and Richard Chai.

She launched her own collection, Lerario Beatriz, in August 2005. It is characterized by simple designs embellished by exquisite and unique detailing including dresses adorned with handmade buttons and precious craftiwork. With this approach she creates ready-to-wear clothing with couture touches that is both approachable and consummately wearable. All the pieces are produced in Brazil and Lerario claims "the look is somewhere between romantic and edgy."

Rachel McAdams' Pink Highlights: Love It or Hate It?

It is interesting to know that malzie89 loves Rachel McAdams no matter what - even with her controversial highlights.

It is interesting to know that malzie89 loves Rachel McAdams no matter what - even with her controversial highlights. I went through many hair phases - as I'm sure you all did too - but pink highlights was never one of them. I think I did have plum ones though. I definitely did the skunk stripe thing. Anywho, we all love this girl too, but do we love her recent hair choice? Maybe if she wasn't wearing hot pink lips...
