Bold & Bright

What a perfect title for this Vogue Italia cover!
"Bold & Bright" is right! Love how the bright punches of color above & below dramatically wake you up & smack you right into a beautiful reality.

It's Monday. Let's start this new week off feeling fresh, energized & BOLD! There's no better Muse to get us in the mood than the always bubbly, always cheerful Chanel Iman.



Gorge.
Now, don't you feel revved up?
Ready. Set. Go.
Happy Monday!

L.P.S.,

Bright Eyes

Have you noticed one of the newest beauty trends: bright, colorful eyes? You almost can't help but notice. Eyelids beautifully saturated with intense color seem to be popping up everywhere. Especially on the Spring '11 runways. Take a look around and you'll see gorgeous shades of green like on Oscar De La Renta's runway {above}.

You'll see fantastic shades of fuchsia like on Dior's runway {above}.

But chances are you'll also find colorful eyes 'smizing' {taken from the incomparable Tyra} everywhere on the street. Chanel Iman brilliantly displays the look while out and about {above}.

Not too long ago though I told you all about my experience with Jones Magazine as part of the host committee for their Meet Me In Miami event. Well one of the weekend's featured events was a design competition held at Miami Design District's oh-so-chic Mai Tardi. One of the participating designers followed suit with this beauty trend and glammed her models up in eye-poppin' eye color.

Take a look at the stunner of a model above. How amazing is her look?! Love the mix of lavender & green.
{Sick. Sick. Sick.}

This particular design competitor, fortunately for us, showed the look on a variety of skin tones. {Check the shot that I took above.} These pics are great examples of how women of all hues can incorporate the current beauty trend into everyday life.
So go ahead, play around a little. You'll be surprised at the beauty you can create with some amazing color, a brush, a little bit of courage, and lots of creativity!
Happy playing & tell us what you come up with!

L.P.S.,

Monday's {Unconventional} Muse

Chanel Iman

Completely love this fresh-faced-not-so-new-on-the-scene model.
I mean really, what's not to love? Beautiful. Photogenic. Bubbly. Sweet, kind, and pretty. What more do you want in a girl? I've written about her many times before (like here), but absolutely had to feature this beauty in our Monday's Unconventional Muse post. She's kind of like the jack of all trades when it comes to modeling.
She can be...

...sweet & serene, like on Oscar De La Renta's runway...

...a sexy throwback, like on Louis Vuitton's runway...

...the girl about town hangin' with her gorgeous friends, like The Original Iman...

...and now, an angel...
As in Victoria's Secret, of course. Check her out in their must-watch runway show happening November 30th, 10pm on CBS. As always, it's sure to be worth the wait. And I'm confident that Chanel Iman will reign supreme.
She always does!
What do you think? Love her too?...

L.P.S.,

Picture Perfect

Could Chanel Iman look any more beautiful?
Stumbled across these photos a while back. Need I say that they are just gorgeous, in a sexy-tough-kind-of-way?
Shining Star
Sneaky Fawn
Futuristic Throwback (LOVE!!)
She's officially a card-carrying member of the "It Doesn't Get Any Fiercer Than This" club!
