Inspired by the HBO series, Game of Thrones, Helmut Lang hits the nail on the head with his Fall 2012 runway show. Edgy silhouettes included tailored blazers, wool dresses with leather sleeves, and asymmetrical jackets in black, white, and this season’s, burnt red. Minimal colors were shockingly appealing in tree branch prints paired with tight denim and furs in a cranberry hue. Helmut Lang’s timeless pieces can be worn in a multitude of ways, as the designer styled oversized, chunky scarves by Taiana Giefer into the collection. Two-piece suits are perfect for a stand out look in the office or could be paired with sexy lace for a day to night look. Lang’s textures were a huge focus this season with furs, leather, lace, knit, wool, and suiting.

Vampires, telepaths, and shapeshifters, oh my! While in Washington D.C. this weekend, my brother’s girlfriend introduced me to HBO’s television drama series, True Blood. I never got into the fad of vampires, but after a quick glimpse into a new dramatic addiction, I decided I needed to put the first season on my to-watch list.

A bigger addiction for me is makeup and True Blood is collaborating with Tarte for a new limited edition cosmetic collection dedicated to the success of the show. Tarte™ for True Blood™ has created a color palette and other beauty products developed by Emmy award-winning makeup artist and True Blood makeup department head, Brigette Myre-Ellis. The product line will be available in July, in order to coincide with the show’s fourth season, and will be carried at the HBO shop in New York City, HBO’s online store, and Sephora.

The collection includes three products:

1. tarte™ for True Blood™ limited-edition collector’s palette ($52) includes 17 matte and shimmer eyeshadows, aqua-gel eyeliner, mascara, and a natural eye primer.

2. tarte™ for True Blood™ limited-edition natural cheek stain in shimmering red ($30)

3. tarte™ for True Blood™ limited-edition LipSurgence™ natural lip tint in shimmering red ($24)
