IN THE MOOD TO BE CINDERELLA

Dedar image These sandals would make me feel like Cinderella. They are Bruno Frisoni. Sadly they are just as elusive as Cinderella's missing slipper, but I did find one in black patent and silver, size IT 36/US 5/6, $110 available on TheRealReal Here. Sadly I am Anastasia, my big feet won't fit into them. If yours can and you scoop them up - congratulations Cinderella!...

IN THE MOOD FOR KYLIE POLISH

Kylie's new "SinfulColors" nail polish line is available for a limited time, and there are some pretty nice shades. She is building her empire yet did the right thing pricing them so her young fans can afford many of them at only $2.98. They are formaldehyde, DBP, toluene, formaldehyde resin and camphor free. My picks are the metallic pinks (Miss Chief in photo) which are on trend this season, but all of these are worth a try: slay gray, Kreme de la Kreme, Kommando, Knight Out, Karamel, Kaf Latte.

Funny timing because I also recently viewed a video of someone diminishing under eye circles with turmeric. Turmeric likely added a natural yellow pigment and yellow is a brightening color. My friend has great skin so she doesn't need color correcting. Nor do most people. I think this is just a fad for most but for those who really need it there are some new options available. I love YSL Touche Éclat and their new $38 Neutralizers are my pick to try, click HERE. For today's New York Times article about...

IN THE MOOD FOR POLISH Vol. 4

The traditional white tip french manicure is officially dated. I am not crazy about bright or dark tips, so I tried using my two favorite Essie metallics: apres chic (silver), leggy legend (bronze) with tuck it in my tux (white, only 1 coat). I prefer the left silver tip on pink and the right silver tip on white. ...
