This March Maybelline New York launches the ‘Sweet Thing Collection’ – a candy-inspired group of colors that includes fabulous pastels and brights to suit your spring-fever fancy. Found at the same price point and most of the retailers that carry Maybelline, the new product range is for lips, eyes, and nails too! The limited edition line comes in the same formulation for the Color Sensational Lip Gloss, Express Finish Nail Color, Eye Express Cream Shadow Stick and the Expert Wear Duo Eye Shadow. I was lucky enough to try out the products from the range, along with some sweet mini cupcakes from Baked by Melissa (sooo delicious!). My absolute favorites: Color Sensational Triple Yun Lip Gloss ( a great coral/pink color), Express Finish Nail Color in Minty, Eye Express Cream Shadow Stick in A La Mauve, and Expert Wear Duo Eye Shadow in Goody Plum Drop. Stay on the lookout for these fabulous limited-time-only items at your favorite retailer (I usually go to Rite Aid or Target) or head to Maybelline.com for the latest news and happenings.

What’s in HER Bag? Julia DiNardo of Fashion Pulse Daily
My amazing friend Dina Fierro of eye4style has started a ‘What’s in HER Bag?’ feature, and was kind enough to feaure mine this week! See below for the numerous necessary and rationalized as necessary items I carry with me on a daily basis! And of course, check out eye4style – I know you will love it (if you don’t already!)
My dear friend Julia DiNardo really SETS THE STANDARD for multi-tasking. Not only does she write the amazing blog Fashion Pulse Daily (and for other outlets like Stylelist), she’s also a professor at NYU and the designer behind the aborbs Neighbor Teaze line.
- My hands stay ultra-moisturized with Miss Oops Butter Hands
- I’m always on the go, so I love my portable, lightweight Duracell Instant USB Charger
- Blackberry Curve Phone
- Won’t be caught without a slew of Fashion Pulse Daily business cards, a Metro Card, and my Starbucks Card!
- Always gotta shield my pale eyes for the sun – been rocking these Jones New York oversized shades quite a bit
- Keeping hydrated via The Heart Truth nalgene water bottle (a New York Fashion Week freebie)
- I’m always prepared for a fashion emergency with my Tide Pen, pack of tissues, mini brush, Purell, Opti-Free Contact rewetting drops, Marc Jacobs Grapefruit splash perfume in a mini atomizer from Sephora, Color Sensational Maybelline lip glosses in ‘Born with it’ and ‘Triple Yum’ and Sweet Thing Collection Nail polish in ‘Minty, MAC lipstick in Peta Lure, and Dior concealer.
- For subway rides of 10+ minutes, it’s imperative to have something on hand to read; my choice is one of my numerous magazine subscriptions (seen here, Marie Claire) or a WWD.

Forever 21 Pick of the Day: Eliptic Knit Skirt, $17.80
Primary colors for spring are a definite- agreed? If you’re getting a little worn out by a see of neutral tones, celebrate the advent of springtime with a splash of red. I call it a splash, but this Eliptic Knit Skirt, $17.80 certainly doesn’t let the bright red steal the show: a jacquard knit with an exposed zipper as well as a spherical print gives it a funky touch to share the limelight. Come the heat of summer, tuck a jersey tee or crisp button-up shirt into the elastic waist and let the skirt’s silhouette transform your look.
