Golden Girls

I'm livin' my life like it's golden
Livin' my life like it's golden
Livin' my life like it's golden, golden,
Livin' my life like it's golden
Livin' my life like it's golden, golden

Golden by Jill Scott is one of my favorite tunes and reminds me to treasure everyday...

Oscar de la Renta

Diane von Furstenberg
Badgley Mischka
Tibi

That sentiment must have been on the minds of some of falls most celebrated designers. How about you? Are you living your life like it's golden?

It's Here!!

New York Fashion Week, Fall 2011, of course!
So excited to see what all those creative geniuses come up with.

Up today: BCBG Max Azria, Richard Chai, Luca Luca, Mara Hoffman, and Christian Siriano to name a few.
I'll definitely check in with my report on all of the fantastical-ness.
Until then, have a gaze at these amazing Oscar de la Renta images.
The vision of loveliness below should, for sure, get you in the mood.

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!

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.,
Carla
