Such a jean-ius play on words don’t you think?
Similar to how the word yoyo has such great recall with the toy, the word jeans has become strongly related to the color blue. This is why MAC (I think!) decided to name its new limited edition eyeshadow name after. It comes in four colors that replicate different denim hues – Diva in Distress, Motorhead, StovePipe Black and White Jeanius. The one pictures above is Motorhead.
Diva In Distress Mid-tone gray with silver pearl (Limited Edition)
Motorhead Mid-tone blue with copper pearl (Limited Edition)
Stove Pipe Black Black with copper pearl (Limited Edition)
White Jeanius White with silver pearl (Limited Edition)
Each shadow is about $20 and is part of a limited edition collection, so if you want it:
Launch Date: March 3, 2011 for North America, March 2011 for International.
It seems we haven’t even really experienced winter yet (no snowstorms and shoveling 12 feet of snow and no cases of road trip medical assistance – thankfully) and we are celebrating spring already! MAC is already promoting their spring limited edition collection and I personally love all the pinks and greens!
Brilliant butterflies, flashy florals and gorgeously geometric graphics…A colourful collaboration between M·A·C and the artist known worldwide as Vera, who merged fine arts with linens, murals, textiles and silk scarves in her punchy, painted patterns. Now in shades plucked straight from her most lavish prints, M·A·C Vera embraces the luxe, lighter-than-air spirit that delivers the kind of startling, look-at-me statement that defines what it means to be an instant classic. Limited Edition.
Launch Date:
February 16, 2012 in North American, March 2012 at international MAC locations
It seems that designer collaborations will continue to be a hit this 2012. Jason Wu for Target collection has yet to hit the stores but it has already created much excitement between the media and consumers.
Will it sell out in minutes like the Missoni for Target collection? (Everything was sold within hours the day the collection was launched, reports say that Target stores were filled with people micrometers within each other!)
We will see!
Here’s what FabSugar has to say:
We just got our hands on the Jason Wu for Target lookbook, showing the line in its 53-piece entirety. The “gamine chic” collection, inspired by French new-wave films, drops online and in stores on Feb. 5 featuring a range of pieces reflecting girlie nuances with a fresh twist via crisp peplum tops, sweet floral-print dresses, Peter Pan collars, and pleated skirts. Striped colorblocking, sheer floaty blouses, and chic structured totes and handbags were also a focal point in the line. “I wanted the collection to have a sophisticated voice with an American sportswear spin,” said Wu. The best part? Everything is priced under $60. This is a collection we can’t wait to shop.
Who shone at the Golden Globes red carpet?
Champagne hues, subtle sparkles and red lips were seemingly the trend this year. You might not see any stainless steel ring but there certainly was a lot of bling!
The more popular celebrities were these:
Salma Hayek wowed in metallic Gucci, Charlize Theron glowed in soft tiers by Christian Dior, and Emma Stone went for dramatic beauty in Lanvin. Claire Danes looked ultra-elegant in a black and white J. Mendel gown, and Viola Davis also showed some leg in a sexy slitted Pucci confection!
