This fall season’s beauty trends range from traditional staples to eye-catching statement looks. Looking back on the Fall 2016 Ready-to-Wear runway looks, we can easily see that the makeup used within various shows was an accurate prediction of what will be trending in the cosmetic world this fall. On the more unsurprising side of things, the dark lip has returned to its usual spot as a true go-to for the colder months of the year. Seen on runways like Rodarte, Louis Vuitton, and Marni, the dark lip trend in deep plum and red tones was made a focal point. To get the look yourself, try NYX Cosmetics Simply Vamp Lip Cream in shades She Devil and Covet, which are both available online for $6.50. Or, try Urban Decay’s Vice Lipstick in Blackmail or Disturbed, also available online and priced at $17.

More on the side of dramatic statement looks is the smoky, smudged eyeliner, which was also a popular choice on the Fall 2016 runways. This goth-inspired look complemented the collections shown by designers and brands like Adam Selman, Elie Saab, and Givenchy. Going the daring eye makeup route can be intimidating for many, so at first, you may want to opt for a more wearable, subtle version. Try the Marc Jacob’s Highliner Gel Eye Crayon in Blacquer, available online for $25, or NYX Cosmetics Tres Jolie Gel Pencil Liner in Pitch Black, also available online for $12.

Another core trend in beauty that has seemingly been in the spotlight for multiple consecutive seasons now is the natural, bold eyebrow look. Being that it is much easier to get away with darker, bolder brows come fall and winter, it is no surprise that this look also made several appearances on the fall 2016 runways. Valentino, Balmain, and Nina Ricci all opted for easy-going natural brows, rather than heavy filled-in versions. To recreate this low-maintenance look, try Soap & Glory’s Arch Brow Gel, available here for $12, or Anastasia Beverly Hills Tinted Brow Gel, available online for $22.

My Fall 2012 Fashion Week Adventure

by

[Henri Bendel Window Display, February 2012]

Fashion Week might sound like the most glamorous, fantastic event on earth, and although it has it’s moments of pure wonder and rapture, it also has its place for a lot of work, exhaustion, and visual overload. Here’s some of what I experienced this past New York Fashion Week, Fall 2012 season.

At Robert Verdi‘s lounge, I got to check out the latest from Pop Phones (great new colors!), Snapfish, T3, Sinful Colors Nail Polish, Reach Toothbrushes (they’ve got some cool design handles) and more! Always one of my favorite places for a little r&r during the crazy week.

This custom made, Nicole Miller vest was EVERYTHING! The most amazing piece I’ve ever worn, I think I can say, hands down!  I had to share a pic of the back of it, so you could see the incredible detailing.

I attended Bloggers Night Out this season, so that I could meet and mingle, but more importantly, spend some time with my girls from Sorrelli who had a display set up at the event. Of course I couldn’t resist trying on these amazing bracelets from the Aquatic collection, in the  Sorrelli Avant Garde Collection.Aren’t they just stunning?

NARS hosted an incredibly well-done, intimate store party to celebrate the one-year  anniversary of the Bleecker Street store following an intimate dinner at L’Artusi around the corner. On a sad note, RIP to Marcel Nars, Francois Nars’ adorable pup, who was a “face” of the brand and passed away this week. Seriously, I have time for absolutely NOTHING extra during fashion week, so when this little care package from ONECARE showed up with a lint roller to get rid of FashionPulse Kitty’s hair in a jiffy (and it was scented too!) and Downy Wrinkle Release, it pretty much saved the day.

Thanks to the Tresemme team and Jamal for the awesome kinky waves and styling session above the crowd at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. It was nice to not have to worry about my hair for two days (yeah, I made this style LAST!), and now I love the 24 Hour Body Mousse!

Even though it always seems to be at the point when I am on the verge of exhaustion, somehow being backstage at Betsey Johnson (pictured above), seeing (and eating) the pounds of candy strewn about, the balloons, the music, the energy- I become instantly revised and revitalized!

Sometimes covering backstage, I don’t get to actually come around and see the show; it’s fun to peek at the clothes, or take a snapshot of some of the large boards in the back; it definitely gives a nice, cohesive feel to the entire collection!

Rodarte F/W 2011 Collection

Kate and Laura Mulleavy’s inspiration for this season’s Rodarte collection was undoubtedly the American Plains.  The color palette was neutral and earthy-with the exception of the bright red show closer. The collection was steeped with silk gowns, long skirts, and leather pieces.  It was also exquisitely hand-crafted.  The appliqué on the pinafore tops and skirts was appliquéd were not made by a machine, reinforcing the high price point of these items.

Though Target’s designer collaboration line with Rodarte won’t be available to the public until December 20th, those of you located in New York are in for a special treat!

Target will unveil their holiday pop-up store in the Meatpacking District – “Target To-Go” – on the corner of Ganesvoort and Washington Streets on December 11-13th from 10am-8pm.

Among the selections at Target To-Go? Select pieces from Rodarte for Target! All in all, the shop will feature 50 “giftable items,” including toys and beauty products. Shoppers will have the opportunity to walk up to the “gifting truck,” where they order their items and receive a pre-wrapped gift in return.

Those who get there early enough will be the first to get their hands on five anticipated items from the collection. I’m most excited about the coral slip dress ($39.99), but those willing to brave the crowds and the cold can also find the sequin ribcage dress ($49.99), the black halter dress ($39.99), and two different versions of the bow belt ($12.99 each).

We hear Rachel Bilson is going to be around celebrating the opening on December 11th around 10am as well…
