Meet the Ladies of Pylones
20May10
The most common questions you’ll hear me ask in my apartment (mostly to myself) are where’s my nail file? Tweezers? Nail clippers? Tape? Scissors? It feels like no matter how many pairs of each I own, in my moment of need they are no where to be found. Well thanks to my new friends from Pylones some of my problems are solved.
Pylone’s line of grooming products, which includes a tweezer and nail file set, both have a suction cup to adhere to your bathroom mirror, not only has made me more organized but are also so cute! The suction cup allows you to hang the product either upright or vertical (see picture) for your convenience and really brightens up my bathroom. The Tweezers ($12) come in 7 different lady choices, the nail file ($15) in 8, all in various ethnicities, costumes and hair colors. Both measure roughly 1” in base, 4” in height. They are also incredibly purse-friendly should you be so charmed by these ladies you should want to put them in your makeup case. However, if you have my more

DVF’s iPhone Cover
9Apr10
I’m obsessed!!! How hot is the new Diane von Furstenberg iPhone Cover? She designed it in honor of the new iPhone application DVF launched earlier this week.
I saw on Facebook they are running a free shipping promo. ‘Use DVFSHIPFREE for free ground shipping on any order with an item under $100’. Is it me or is that awkwardly worded? The iPone cover is $20, which is under $100 so I think that means I’m getting free shipping? And on that note, ONLY $20!!!! I’m so impressed (and surprised) they didn’t price it higher.
I need it and am ordering it now! Or at least trying to, the website seems to be having a meltdown at the moment when it comes to ordering them. Maybe they weren’t expecting the entire female population to be ordering it all at once.
It also fits iPod Touches, for more information visit dvf.com

Pretty Connected Backstage at Peter Som
17Feb10
Everyone was pretty in purple backstage for Peter Som’s Fall 2010 fashion show at Milk Studios.
HAIR: Lead Hair Stylist Laurent Philippon for Bumble and Bumble
Inspired by Steven Meisel’s photography in the ‘90s, Laurent Philippon created simple straight lines for the hairstyle to balance the vibrant mix of colors and textures coming from Som’s collection, and the bold purple lip from MAC. Using all Bumble and Bumble products, Laurent saturated locks in ‘Prep’ prior to straightening, then flat ironed in sections, misting in ‘Does It All Styling Spray’ to create a bone straight look with a sleek middle part.
MAKEUP: Lead Makeup Artist, Tom Pecheux for M.A.C

I’m Nuts About Macadamia Natural Oil™
24Jan10
Almost two months ago, I had the pleasure of getting an advanced introduction to the new, very affordable, amazing hair line Macadamia Natural Oil™, and I haven’t stopped using it since. Now available, the brand launched with a five-piece collection including Macadamia Healing Oil Treatment, Macadamia Oil Infused Comb, Macadamia Rejuvenating Shampoo, Macadamia Nourishing Leave-In Cream, and Macadamia Deep Repair Masque. I’m obsessed with it all!
Face and hair oils have really made their way into the spotlight over the past few years and where many we’re once apprehensive to apply it to the face and scalp, it’s now readily accepted with proven benefits. We started with Olive Oil, then Coconut Oil, then the last years major buzz word, the beloved argen seed oil, and now our attention is going to the macadamia nut oil.
Why Macadamia Nut Oil?
Macadamia nut oil works on all hair types to promote a healthy scalp and hair growth. This lightweight, non-greasy oil absorbs quickly and effortlessly into the hair shaft and skin. Rich in more
