Beauty Byte: OGO Oxygenated Water

Ever heard of OGO Water?

Ever heard of OGO Water? This revolutionary water is infused with 35 times more oxygen than any of the leading brands of natural spring water that we are used to drinking. It's been dubbed, "the breathing water" since our bodies need plenty of oxygen to function optimally. The health benefits of oxygenating your body include: efficiency, memory, concentration, blood circulation, healing acceleration, better looking skin, etc.

OGO is available in four different variations: still (blue top), sparkling (red top), flower power (silver top), and oxygen (canister style). The bottles of the still, sparkling and flower power are quite different looking. They are short round bottles that resemble ongoing life and the shape of the earth.

The oxygen water also comes in four different flavors: Peppermint, Yuzu Lemon, Eucalyptus and Flower Power. Simply flip open the top, inhale and drink away for a refreshing boost of energy.

However, OGO has yet to make its journey overseas. For now, it can only be purchased at Colette in Paris, at Harrods in London or online.

For all of you who are going to be traveling this summer, don't forget to check it out. And if you're feeling especially generous...why of course we'd love some!

Celebrity Style: Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay sure has been getting her hair done a lot lately!

Lindsay sure has been getting her hair done a lot lately! Here she is leaving the Neil George salon in Beverly Hills, with glowing golden locks. Though, I have been blinded by her silver metallic leather jacket - which I have a hunch is Chanel. A gal who is not afraid to flaunt her athletic legs and play with her hair color; Lindsay doesn't disappoint!

Betsey Johnson 'Jordan' Pump: Love It or Hate It?

These Betsey Johnson 'Jordan' Pumps, were found by lilxmissxmolly in the Love It or Hate It?

These Betsey Johnson 'Jordan' Pumps, were found by lilxmissxmolly in the Love It or Hate It? group. I must say I am an undecided. While I don't think I would wear them myself, I think they have the potential to be really hot on the right foxy lady. You always have to be careful with white shoes - they can look cheap - but these are strangely elegant. They are a very fluid shape and that sliver of leopard on the inside of the heel is a nice detail. What do you all think, love or hate?

Dress You Up! Trapeze Dresses

Just when you thought dresses couldn't get any more comfortable the trapeze dress emerges.

Just when you thought dresses couldn't get any more comfortable the trapeze dress emerges. They surfaced last Fall and are in full force for Spring, with their airy and forgiving silhouette. These are awesome for those with tummy issues and look great with a pair of metallic peep toe flats or cork-heel pumps. To wit, the trapeze can be dressed up or dressed down. And come winter time, just wear one of these with a pair of tights or over some skinnies and you'll still be styley.

Stay tuned all week long as I'll be showing you some of the cutest dress styles right now; there will be something for everyone so get ready for Dress You Up!.

Who Wore It Better? Alice + Olivia Blue Sequin Dress

I have to ask - because you all know I am obsessed with this Alice + Olivia sequin dress!

I have to ask - because you all know I am obsessed with this Alice + Olivia sequin dress! Star on the rise Emma Roberts wore it on the Orange carpet Saturday night, but a couple weeks earlier Fab icon Sarah Jessica Parker wore it on a Blue carpet. I don't know if it's SJP's being blonde, which meshes well with blue, or just being more fabulous (sorry Emma - you've got a ways to go), but I think SJP work it better. And really, with black peep toe shoes this dress works better because it lets the dress do all the talking.

Trend Alert

Trend Alert: The Great Gatsby

Here is my ode to The Great Gatsby.

Here is my ode to The Great Gatsby. Fashion is experiencing a throwback to the times of art deco, pleats, beading, speak-easies, and the Belle Epoque. Legendary designer Paul Poiret has been referenced and you can see his dropped hemline and flapper hats in a major way in the Proenza Schouler Fall 2007 collection. After all the 70s and 80s we've been seeing on the runway these seem fresh and a step in a new fashion direction - just don't take away my booze!

Looks like this is a trend that's going to be around for a couple seasons so if you fancy it, check out these glamorous Spring Gatsby finds, read more

Come Fab Finding With Me: Dinner With The Ex(!)

DearSugar and I had a recent conversation about what one should wear for a nerve-inducing evening spent going out to dinner with an ex.

DearSugar and I had a recent conversation about what one should wear for a nerve-inducing evening spent going out to dinner with an ex. I experienced this last Fall and I did obsess over what to wear.

Here is a wardrobe Catch 22: you don't want to look too sexy because you don't want to give off the wrong vibe; you don't want to look like crap because you want him to know what he's missing! So let's say the situation is that this is a friendly dinner with the ex - no hidden agenda here - so you want to look great, but not overly sexy.

I'll start you off with some armor: this Theory Belted Trench, $495. A trench is classic, and this one in particular is modest - but not at all frumpy! Let's go Fab Finding for a not-too-sexy but attractive dinner with the ex outfit. If you're going to find a dress or skirt - make sure it's not too short! Be sure to come back and tell me your Fab Finds are up, or just tag your Fab Finds with dinner with ex.

Lip Gloss

New! Bobbi Brown's Surf & Sand Lip and Eye Collection

New for Summer 2007, is Bobbi Brown's Surf and Sand Collection.

New for Summer 2007, is Bobbi Brown's Surf and Sand Collection. These refreshing summer products consist of a light, ocean colored eye palette and three new sparkly lip gloss colors. Bobbi Brown feels "There's nothing more beautiful than a wash of shimmering aqua on eyes paired with a fresh pops of color on cheeks and lips." I totally agree - but then again, with a bit of a summer tan (GASP), I think that all makeup looks better!

Surf and Sand Eye Palette, $42, is a limited edition block of ten aqua, light pink, taupe, sea green and sand colored eye shadows. Each of the colors are pearlized, shimmery and soft. They are very wearable and can be worn individually or blended together.

The three new Shimmer Lip Glosses, $19, are made from the same, original high shine gloss formula we love from Bobbi Brown. They are also infused with vanilla so they smell fab. The colors are Pink Blossom, Warm Peach and Cocoa Bling. They look amazing with the new eye palette and a neutral to pink colored blush for an optimal fresh summer look.

Who Wore It Better? Gucci During Awards Season

Surprisingly, Gucci's Spring collection has been all over the red & orange carpet this awards season.

Surprisingly, Gucci's Spring collection has been all over the red & orange carpet this awards season. I would think more peeps would shy away from the graphic and exotic print red and purple collection; I'm happy to see some risk takers! First we saw it on Oprah at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party - though it seemed a bit busy for Oscars festivities. Then on Saturday we had back-to-back Gucci with Rihanna in a punchy mini dress & awesome purple eye shadow and Jessica Alba dressed it down with some wide legged jeans and bedroom eyes. Who do you think wore Gucci better this awards season?
