VINTAGE CHANEL AD

THINK PINK...........

I must have missed this Bazaar cover with GWEN STEFANI when it first came out, so I'm posting it now because I love and admire the work of the divine Gwen Stefani very much.

"SIMPLY MELANIA - SIMPLY LUXURY - IT TRUMPS THE OTHERS"

MELANIA TRUMP, wife of The Donald, is launching her own line of skin care products Caviar Complexe C6. The five piece collection ranges in price from $50 - $150 and will be sold exclusively at Lord & Taylor stores nationwide.

Hopefully there will be no conflict with IVANKA TRUMP'S skin care line.

ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FACES - PAULINA PORIZKOVA

Yesterday was PAULINA PORIZKOVA'S 48th birthday and she looks as beautiful as ever. I did not create the makeup in this photo, but soon I will post some of the work we did together in the 80's. So until then, I hope you had a wonderful day dear Paulina.

HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY MARC JACOBS

I had a brief acquaintance with designer Marc Jacobs sometime in the late 70's or early 80's, not sure. But I liked to shop at the then hot fashion boutique Charivari on the Upper West Side of New York City. And this skinny teenager named Marc became my regular salesperson there, and was always very helpful.

Sometime later, after returning from a trip to Paris, where I had bleached my short hair blond and discovered the designs of Kansai Yamamoto, I was invited to do some makeup on a photo shoot for Kansai Yamamoto, of all people. And there, as a stylist, was the same Marc from Charivari, and he was with a friend of his that designed jewelry. This friend, wish I could remember his name, took a fancy to me and walked me home after the photo shoot. And I remember talking to Marc on the phone and he telling me that his friend liked me. Unfortunately, I felt his friend was too young for me and so I wasn't interested.

Flash forward a few years and I read in the press that MARC JACOBS has been signed to replace Perry Ellis (one of the early AIDS victims) at PERRY ELLIS the company. And then shortly after, Marc was fired from Perry Ellis. But, thank God, he was able to recover from that early disaster and go on to become the golden boy of his own label MARC JACOBS, a spin off called MARC, and the famous French brand LOUIS VUITTON, which he has turned into one of the hippest brands going. 

I've continued to follow his career and life with it's ups and downs. And these days he is everywhere. Drinking diet Coke, building up his muscles, getting lot's of tattoos, and dating lot's of porn stars. All while wearing a skirt or dress and smiling all the way to the bank. So happy birthday Marc. And may you continue to design and enjoy your success for another 50 years!

A LANCOME AND JASON WU COLLABORATION

Ever since First Lady Michelle Obama wore JASON WU, he has become a household name for millions of people. Lancôme cosmetics sees that potential and they are teaming up to produce a limited edition color line set to launch this Fall 2013.

 "What was so intriguing about partnering with Lancôme is the notion that the brand doesn't impose a model of beauty but rather invites women to embrace themselves. This is the embodiment of a truly modern, sexy and confident woman, much like the women I design for." (to quote Jason Wu).

 "By partnering with Jason, we are able to reach an even more fashion savvy and sophisticated woman." said Silvia Galfo Lancôme's Senior V.P. of Marketing.

Prior to this collaboration, Jason Wu has dabbled in beauty with a candle for Nest Fragrances and a line of nail polish for CND.

JASON WU SPRING 2013

I love this fabulous two toned red lip that Jason Wu showed during his show for Spring 2013. Pale eye shadow, black eyeliner, and a strong brow complete the look.

THE REAL ESTEE LAUDER

Estee was born Josephine Esther Mentzer in 1906, one of nine children. Her father owned a hardware store, but her uncle was a chemist and owned a company called "New Way Laboratories" and he sold many beauty products. After high school Estee helped with her uncles business by selling beauty products to her friends, beauty salons, beach clubs and resorts.

She met Joseph Lauter when she was in her early 20's. They married on January 15, 1930, and later changed their last name to Lauder. The Estee Lauder company was created in 1935.
