INSPIRATION:
Kate Moss

August 29, 2011  /  Comments (0)

I’m not quite sure where to begin. There really isn’t any one woman who has affected me more on a beauty or fashion level than Kate Moss. When I was a tween/ teen, Kate Moss was the ultimate. Remember those CK ads with Marky Mark (aka Mark Wahlberg)? I really wasn’t sure which one I liked more – Marky and his buff abs or Kate and her lanky limbs.

Coming off of a decade of supermodel superpower where amazonian curvaceous women graced the pages of magazines and the runways, Kate Moss was, in my opinion, a much needed change.

Kate was shorter than your …

INSPIRATION:
Mia Farrow

July 29, 2011  /  Comments (0)

The latter part of Mia Farrow’s life has been overshadowed by controversy – largely due to her longtime boyfriend, Woody Allen, marrying her adopted daughter, Soon Yi. Never-the-less, in her earlier years, Farrow was quite the movie star.

Married to Frank Sinatra, lead actress in the Roman Polanski’s 1968 horror hit, Rosemary’s Baby, Farrow looked and played the part of Hollywood starlet to perfection. She was that natural beauty mixed with feminine innocence that the late 1960′s was churning out in droves. But Mia Farrow stood out from the crowd- she had something rare. For one thing, that bone structure is unparalleled. Not …

INSPIRATION:
Karen Elson

July 13, 2011  /  Comments (0)

As far as redheads go, there are few I find sexier than Karen Elson.  Perhaps it’s the hyper-vibrant fire engine red mane, or the sky blue eyes. Maybe it’s her pale skin that contrasts so beautifully against the red of her hair (reminding me of a character out of Twilight) or those uncharacteristically thin and undefined eyebrows that give her an other-worldly facade. Whatever it is, I can’t quite put my finger on it, but it’s not classic beauty yet I’m totally drawn to it.

Karen Elson most definitely has a face for makeup. The high cheek bones, wide set eyes and heavy …

INSPIRATION:
Isabel Lucas

June 29, 2011  /  Comments (0)

In a recent post I noted that I was mildly obsessed with Isabel Lucas as of late, and here’s why: the Australian model and actress is both sexy and glamorous. She’s got the Old Hollywood charm mixed with something a bit more contemporary. Whether, she’s gallivanting around in haute couture or chilling in one of her hippy get-ups, she is equally beautiful, equally interesting, and equally herself. The clothes and makeup don’t seem to matter, Isabel radiates an effortless, ethereal beauty that comes from within. She has that timeless thing that only true classic beauties are able to emanate. She’s young, but I predict …

INSPIRATION:
Flower Child

June 16, 2011  /  Comments (0)

I was at a party recently and they had floral centerpieces that everyone was picking off and putting in their hair. Now, this is not a new look, hippies were playing with the idea of flowers in their hair back in the 60′s and 70′s, but it’s a style that is still so beautiful come summer.

There’s something about flowers and billowing locks that evokes femininity, beauty, charm and personality. Be it one flower perched above your ear or an entire wreath of flowers placed upon your head, the flower child is this week’s beauty inspiration.

(Note To Self: Pick fresh flowers to wear …
