We all know there’s the Coachella diet, (it’s a thing, google it), however as a beauty blogger I’m more about a different head to toe prep. And I’m not talking about the fashion — I’m saving the big outfit reveals for the music festival, especially since I’m hitting the scene with Patricia Field! And since I’m a beauty gal at heart, here’s how I prep:
As someone who has been in the beauty and fashion industry for 10+ years I’m so beyond impressed at the developments we’ve made in the plus size industry. It used to be so challenging when friends and family members would ask me where they could shop that was fashionable and now everyone from ASOS to Forever 21 has come out with a line. As a beauty blog, we are excited to see this happen!

Okay my loves, lets talk Boots (skincare and makeup that is!)! Last week I jumped off a plane from Austin and booked it like a rockstar to Wall Street to see Marina and the Diamonds perform in front of a small audience of beauty editors to celebrate the launch of the UK’s beloved Boots Beauty brand now available at Duane Reade and Walgreens!
In case you missed the launch NARS Last Resort Collection at their store (and Sephora) it will be available nationally at all NARS counters starting April 1st. This limited edition collection is inspired by Francois’ love of French Polynesia and of course his amazing island of Motu Tane. The collection includes:
Congratulations to my loves at NewBeauty Magazine! Last night we celebrated the publications 10 year anniversary with NewBeauty Editor in Chief Yolanda Yoh, NewBeauty Vice President, Group Publisher Steffanie Attenberg and SANDOW CEO Adam Sandow for what was a beauty-full event, featuring two floors of beauty brand activations, makeovers, and photo booths. Guests also we’re able to experience their TestTube program, which if you’re not familiar with think Birchbox, but they actually launched their sampling program first!
Moroccanoil, the leader in professional, luxury oil-infused hair care has launched a breakthrough solution to second (or third) day hair: Dry Shampoo Light Tones and Dry Shampoo Dark Tones. Before you say that there are already an excessive amount of dry shampoos on the market, trust us when we say that they pale in comparison.
When it comes to hair color, change can be daunting! Take a cue from Mad Men’s Christina Hendricks who wasn’t afraid to shift a shade from her iconic red locks to a natural medium golden blonde with Clairol Nice ‘n Easy.
I have chopped, bleached, buzzed and dyed my hair every color of the rainbow and when that was all said and done, there was only one thing left I really wanted — hair extensions. Luckily RPZL (as in RAPUNZEL) NYC’s first ever hair on demand hair extension bar gave me the opportunity embark on my next hair adventure.
Now that the weather is getting nice, it’s time to break out the flirty dresses and punchy prints and have some serious fashion fun. Specifically for spring I’ve been updating my wardrobe with some key artsy prints like this long sleeve lip-print button down from INC International Concepts available only at Macy’s. It’s a great lightweight top and transitional piece from winter to spring as the temperatures are still unpredictable. It makes for an edgy statement piece on any outfit or a sweet accent underneath a classic v-neck sweater. Plus, It’s a good investment piece as it’s just as easy to pair with black shorts as black pants to prolong wear throughout the varying seasons.
