Lots of beauty (and a few fashion) headlines caught our eye this week, for starters…
We’re stalking Rihanna’s Instagram for every hint we can get on her Fenty Beauty collection launching this week — Sept 8th at 12am PT to be exact.
Speaking of things dropping this week… Karl Lagerfeld x Vans launches September 7th.
Tom Ford being Tom Ford launched a new fragrance with a very edgy name, which is no doubt Fucking Fabulous.
Lets hear it for the boys! Literally. Tom Ford recently released a line of mini lipsticks, Lips & Boys featuring 25 of which are new and named after men Tom Ford admires alongside 25 of his bestsellers. Small but mighty (especially at a $36 price tag), they are so luxe and the formula has me drooling! I’m wearing this beauty as part of a project I can’t wait to announce, one of many I have over the next few months that really makes me feel like I’ve hit the next level — which I didn’t even know was achievable! But enough with the cliff hanger… for now. In this post, I’m wearing shade Logan, which is a bright fuchsia in the Metallic Finish range of this collection. The finishes based on the color vary from Matte Finish, Metallic Finish and Satin Finish. It feels amazing on and look at that sheen! I want them all, especially James so I can pretend it was named after my boyfriend, because in my fantasy world we’re Tom Ford’s friends.
Happy 10 year Anniversary Tom Ford Black Orchid! In a decade you’ve become an icon and a staple on my fragrance wall. It’s hard to believe it’s been a decade! The Black Orchid empire is ever growing as is the whole Tom Ford beauty brand. There’s such magic and power with every product they launch. I fell like a million bucks every time I open a new Tom Ford Beauty product (my next splurge is the Tom Ford Venetian Bergamot fragrance and Tom Ford Electric Pink Lip Color — I actually have a running list of my next buys from them every time I purchase). The Tom Ford Orchid Collection continues to grow with some exciting new launches I’m excited to share!
Last week, I joined the brand *squeal* to celebrate this milestone at Christie’s New York for a private exhibition for Black Orchid and the Tom Ford Orchid Collection with an exclusive look at what’s ahead. For Starters the signature Black Orchid collection now includes a Solid Perfume, the Black Orchid Lip Color (worn above and swatched below) as well as the NIGHTBLOOM Powder in shade Black Boom, which is the stunning gold-ish highlighter seen below. Both carry the signature black texture stripe packaging of the original fragrance and are currently available and exclusive to tomford.com.
This month Tom Ford is launching the a new fragrance as part of the Orchid Collection. Pictured below, Orchid Soleil joins the family in the same iconic glass bottle, only in Rose Gold. The scent is a unique mix of the Black Orchid accord surrounded in tuberose as well as Spider Lily Accord, Vanilla, Chestnut, Cream Accord and Patchouli. It doesn’t do for me when the original does but I’m trying to get used to it. It’s a signature scent with a lot of personality that I’m still discovering.
