Just realized Valentine’s Day is this Friday?
I’ve been starving to behold some truly innovative, exhilarating beauty looks during New York Fashion Week AW14 — and, after countless shows in which models wore no lipstick, only a touch of eyeliner, and sheer pink or beige nails, I finally got my wish with the cosmic-inspired makeup at the Rodarte AW14 show.
Typically, I emerge from New York Fashion Week feeling exhausted (the rest of schlepping from one show to the next for countless hours, in 20-degree weather, trying to look chic while avoiding patches of ice and piles of snow, then commuting back home to writer about what transpired and tend to everyday duties), frustrated (all the peacocking outside of Lincoln Center and all the nose-in-the-air attitudes at each show will grate on anyone’s nerves), and oddly inspired (despite all the headaches, there are usually at least a handful of shows that will elicit a positively emotional reaction and some beauty looks that will awaken your own inner artist).
The Emerson FW14 show, held on the evening of February 7th at Lincoln Center in New York City, was a beguiling witching hour thanks to the unique perspective of designer Jackie Fraser-Swan, who combined eerie, cryptic, and sinister elements with defiant punk attitudes, a hefty dose of rock ‘n’ roll coolness, and just a touch of femininity and romance.
If you follow my on Instagram and Twitter, you probably saw some of the posts I uploaded on Friday evening, when I was backstage at the Korto Momolu Fall 2014 show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York City.
Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is in full swing here in New York City, which means we’re seeing dozens of cleverly manicured nails each day.
Matte lips in intense, richly pigmented, bright and buoyant shades, are a huge trend this season — and I, for one, am delighted to get a reprieve from all the glosses and lipsticks that are so saturated with shimmer that they oftentimes feel juvenile and even tacky, as if we’d confused our glitter glue pens and our cosmetics.With more brands experiment with matte formulations, Revlon has followed suit, releasing its new Revlon ColorBurst Matte Balm lip collection.
Whether you’re shopping for the object of your affection, your closest friend, your mom, or your baby sister this Valentine’s Day, they’ll be swept off their feet by these special trinkets.
Ten years after Manhattanite Fiona Kotur launched her eponymous handbag line, KOTUR — comprised primarily of luxurious clutches and minaudieres fashioned out of snakeskin, mosaic shells, mirrored tiles, elegant brocade fabrics, silk faille, polished and faceted metal, Swarovski crystals, and crinkled and embossed metallic fabrics — the esteemed designer has unveiled a new shoe collection.
