By now you’ve probably had your fill of hearing about, seeing, and thinking about the Royal Wedding, the dress, the celebrities who attended- the whole shebang. If I may, I just want to say a few words about it: Sarah Burton for McQueen who did Kate’s dress and her sister Pippa, the bridesmaid’s gown- brava! Exquisite, beautiful, timeless, appropriate perfection; she really showed her range as a designer.
I’ve gotten a lot of emails today about the event, and the two best I decided to include here, as a way for us non-royal gals to get the look.

The first: Nicole Miller’s gown, that is as elegant and chic as Pippa’s, is $1430 and can be found at www.nicolemiller.com.


The second: Essie nail polish was used on Kate, and you can get the exact same sheer pink shade, “Allure” for $8 at Essie.com.
That’s all from me- I hope you enjoyed this day of celebration!

As part of a six-city wide bus tour and beauty brigade, world-renowned haircare product company, Garnier Fructis stopped by Times Square in New York City to lend a green thumb. Inside the tour bus, shelves were stacked with bottles and samples of Pure Clean Garnier Fructis hair products to clean, style, and nourish air-polluted locks – an unfortunate downside to urban lifestyles.
The main goal of the tour/beauty brigade is to increase popular participation in saving the environment – and by default, the world – by pledging to collect recyclable items/used beauty product containers and shipping them to TerraCycle within two weeks to receive 2 cents per item that is donated towards any charity of choice. To get involved with this enviro-saving brigade, simply visit the Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Official Website and click on the Get Involved tab for the Cleaner Greener World Tour Beauty Brigade.
You can also have your personal commitment published publicly on Garnier Fructis’ Facebook page. Garnier Fructis and TerraCycle are diligently collaborating to raise awareness about the extra help our environment needs and get the public to actively participate in their earnest efforts to help save the world. With the ingenuity and help of TerraCycle, various post-beauty products (not limited to only Garnier Fructis product bottles) have been and are being converted into other items for everyday use, such as nootebooks, containters, baskets, or board slates that can be put into making a children’s playground. So, get all your old,empty bottles of shampoo and other beauty products together, put them into an old shoe box, label it, and ship it to TerraCycle for them to refashion into an enviro-friendly manner!

Kate Moss is ridiculously beautiful, not easy to relate to, and more than a bit troubled…my favorite kind of celebrity. And one of the few celebs whose casual style is perhaps even better than her red carpet looks. She somehow makes the simplest outfits look totally haute couture and runway ready.

Blazer, Shorts, Cami, Wedges, Bag, Hat, Sunglasses.
