Today’s post was going to be about skincare, going back to basics to be exact but I changed my mind. I finally was able to surf the net a little and came across an article on Bettina Graziani for Paris Vogue. I love discovering fashion icons of the 1950’s. Who was she? Only the mostContinue reading “City Girl in Red Lipstick – France, Bettina Graziani, Model”

The Allure of a Great Scent – Maison Francis Kurkdjian
I have a heightened sense of smell, this can be attributed to my French gene. Anything I can detect either smells sublime or reeks. The first time I became aware of the power of scent was Stefano, a gorgeous Italian blonde from Rome. All of the girls at work were in love with him, exceptContinue reading “The Allure of a Great Scent – Maison Francis Kurkdjian”
Keeping It Simple – Weekend Beauty Routine
I don’t know about you guys, but I like to keep it simple on the weekends. Unless of course I have a date I’m nervous about. Nervous because there are some men that just make a woman nervous, if you know what I mean. Since I wear makeup 5 days a week and blow-dry myContinue reading “Keeping It Simple – Weekend Beauty Routine”
How Many Shades of Red Do You Have?
I can’t keep track anymore, they are all gorgeous and work with my complexion and pearly whites. I try not to get fixated on anyone color, but sometimes that happens. I’m searching for a new red, does anyone have any suggestions?
JUNGLE RED by NARS
Jungle Red by Nars is a personal favorite that is being worn down to the nub. If you guys haven’t seen the movie “The Women” that’s where the name for the iconic lipstick came from. I love that movie and watch it every other year or so. I’m a huge fan of 1930’s Films. Why?Continue reading “JUNGLE RED by NARS”
City Girl in Red Lipstick – Taylor Schilling
I love it when celebrities embrace red lipstick. It’s a bold-look-at-me-color that demands attention.

None other than celebrity makeup artist Tina Turnbow. But look closelyContinue reading “City Girl in Red Lipstick – Taylor Schilling”

Removing Your Makeup
Call me a fanatic, but I remove my makeup using a makeup towelette first. My favorites by far are Yes to Cucumbers by Yes to Carrots and most recently the New Cucumber & Sage Towelettes by Burt’s Bees. I love the scent and this is usually my first step to removing my makeup, or wipingContinue reading “Removing Your Makeup”
City Girl In Red Lipstick – Dragon Girl by Nars
I’m going to be brave and post my current selfie, mind you I hate, hate having my picture taken. I am not photogenic in the least and rarely ever turn out well. The only times I look decent are when I’m behind the camera, go figure. Anyway, this is me and I’m wearing Dragon GirlContinue reading “City Girl In Red Lipstick – Dragon Girl by Nars”
Naturally Gorgeous Lashes
My eye allergies act up periodically and I usually can’t wear mascara, like the week before last. I also keep my beauty routine simple on the weekends, as I spend too much time getting myself together and out the door during the week. I take advantage and apply my Talika Lipocils twice a day whenContinue reading “Naturally Gorgeous Lashes”
