Fashion Pulse Flash of the Week

by

As part of the site’s new redesign, I will also be revamping some of the categories and features. The latest newness to FPD is the “Fashion Pulse Flash” feature, which includes tiny tidbits of info so that you can get the gist of the latest, exciting fashion and beauty news and product launches, along with what I have recently experienced and loved.

gapkids

Diane von Furstenberg and BabyGap: The Limited Edition Explorers Collection just hit stores and online this past week, and I went shop to shop this second installment of the GapKids + DVF Collection, exclusively for girls ranging from newborn to age fourteen, the night before it debuted nation wide. Perfectly printed, pleated dresses were a popular choice amongst the kid-friendly accessories, including sunglasses, beach balls, book bags, and even tiny espadrille ankle-strap flats. If you have a daughter in this age range, or know someone that does, the limited edition, unique pieces certainly make for a perfect gift! Prices range from $15 for small accessories to $150 for the Diaper Bag, while clothing ranges from $25 – $70.

essie neon collection 2013

Essie’s new neon shades, alongside Jockey “Rachel Zoe must-have” tanks and a Persifor bag.

 

The essie 2013 neon collection, which just came out as of yesterday (May 1), features six fabulous new shades (plus a white option, “blanc,” featured above) to get you in the mood for some wild nights in your near future! We’ve been adding neon accents to our clothing and accesories for several seasons now, so it’s high time that our digits get the same treatment. Plus, at $8 per bottle, you can snap up a few of these life of the party shades in names such as “dj play that song,” “bouncer, it’s me,”  “shake your $$ maker,” and “bottle service.” Essie recommends using a base of , then a coat of white to really let the neon blast through, followed by two coats of the neon shade of your choice, finished off with a top coat.

Mascaras of the moment:

covergirl and physicians formula mascaras

I’ve had a pretty heavy rotation of these two mascaras lately, the COVERGIRL LashBlast Clump Crusher ($6.94) hanging out in my portable makeup bag, while the Physicians Formula Organic Wear 100% Natural Origin FakeOut Mascara ($9.95) stays on my vanity at home.  The Clump Crusher does an excellent job of keeping my lashes separated yet lengthened, without any excess goo or hardneing to create a visibly defined look that makes me feel über feminine. the FakeOut Mascara has natural fibers and preservatives that hydrate, moisturize, condition, and soothe the lashes with ingredients such as organic aloe and cucumber, and remains free of parabens, GMO’s and synthetic fragrances.
