Fashion Week Highlights: Dewy Drama at Tahari

Feb 17, 2010

Working in a professional environment doesn’t give you a lot of leeway to experiment with your makeup.  The best looks for work are natural, fresh and understated.  Thus, you don’t usually find a lot of inspiration on the catwalk where the makeup can be a little…uh, drastic.  But this year, Elie Tahari partnered with Bobbi Brown to create a soft, flushed look for the runway.

I love the slightly flushed cheek with the dewy highlights.  This look is natural with just a little bit of drama.  Want to steal this look?  Just follow Bobbi Brown’s face chart.

On the cheeks, you have the pink rose blush ($22).  The eyes get a hint of shimmer from Bobbi’s limited edition gold chrome eyeshadow ($23).  For the eyeliner, Bobbi eschews black liner in favor of indigo nights and bash eyeshadow shades, a deep blue and rich green ($20 each).  Lastly, they added an iced lilac glitter gloss ($20) to the lips to give just a hint of color.

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.

The Range: Printed Shirt Dresses

If you’re preparing your wardrobe for the warmer weather, don’t sleep on shirt dresses. Casual when worn with sandals or sneaker, dressy with flats or heels, they’re great for any work situation. They’re a great piece that you can throw on any time you need to look pulled together. Here are a few choices.

The Mondays: March 18, 2024

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us. Plus, our babysitter cancelled, so neither of us feels ready for the week ahead. But in between making mac-and-cheese and watching Aristocats for […]
