What's In Your Purse?

I've been carrying a gray bag similar to the Chloe bag pictured below. The Chloe bag has been my dream bag for a moment now, but the price is not my dream price. So, I'll just lust over the bag from afar. What's in my purse, well it's filled with my day to day necessary things, but here is a highlight of some of those things I would like to share:

What's In Your Purse?

  1. I love,  love this Coach wallet. Okay, wait, I love Coach overall! This soft pink wallet is my favorite, it keeps everything organize, just the way I like it.
  2. Ego Faces Luxury Lipstick in Love Stuck-I love the color, the formula and how long-lasting it is. Ladies you must grab this lipstick.
  3. I get so many ideas running through my head in the day. The best piece advice: write it down. I jot everything down so I can get back to the idea to develop it further. I carry this journal everywhere. 
  4. Do I really have to explain this!
  5. I came across Tiffany & Co sunglasses in a magazine a while back, and fell in love with their design. A girl really feels so Audrey Hepburn wearing these. 
  6. Ego Faces Marbleized Eyeshadow- you never know when you need to turn your look up a notch when leaving work. 
  7. Ego Faces Mascara- good to have in the purse, especially if you are having a minimal makeup day, 2 coats of mascara gives you that wide eye look.

Painting the Carpet/Town Red

It's probably every girl's dream to be pampered, jeweled, and wear the latest gown to grace a red carpet such as the Oscars. There is a lot of planning that goes into these looks, involving picking the right gown and makeup. The same planning goes into a special night on the town, an evening gala, or ball. To make it really simple and less of a headache on yourself,  it's probably best to get a simple black dress. Every girl should have the LBD/SBD (little black dress or simple black dress) in their closet for nights like this. With the right accessories and makeup you take that SBD and make it glamorous in no time.

Ego Faces Luxury Matte lipstick in Red Carpet should be a staple color in every woman's makeup bag. It's a gorgeous red color that isn't too overpowering, but still makes a statement.  Achieving this look is very quick and easy and ladies we're all about the quick and easy. Check out how to get this look on the The Take A Look II post.  So whether it's a special night on the town, a day in the office, or a red carpet event, Red Carpet will be a go-to color for the season.

Could You Be Love Struck?

Spring is around the corner and it's time to get the closet filled with your spring fashions. I am truly in love with all the colors of spring this season and the bright hues that we will see in the streets really soon. I am keeping my eyes on some key items, like this silk blouse, which in any color will be adorable with colored jeans that are now in. I am also on the hunt for a nice nude blazer, which I think will be a nice piece to have along with a nude pump. The key to the look is going to be the makeup this season, clean and colorful. Set it off with Ego Faces Luxury Lipstick in Love Struck, it is a fun and sexy pink colored lipstick that inspires spring and love. The lipstick can be found at http://www.egofaces.com/

What are you looking for this spring to add to your closet?
