2007: my top 20

26Dec07

1. The amazing actor Johnny Depp, who keeps a low profile, was in the spotlight just enough to make me appreciate his incredibly juicy roles and, of course, his looks. The guy has it all and I enjoyed every minute of watching him this year.

2. Red lipstick was seen everywhere this year. From Gwen [...]

So it took me a while to pick my favorites for this season’s America’s Next Top Model. I try to base it on who is the best and also who would be a great role model in the fashion industry. The only time my girl has won was when Miss Caridee took home the prize. [...]

happy birthday to me

15Aug07

It’s my 24th today. On the way to work I started thinking about that, and I got the sudden urge to buy every anti-aging product Sephora could offer me. By the time I reached the office, I had calmed down, but still went straight to Sephora.com. I admittedly focus more on clothes and shoes [...]

celebrity ads

14Aug07

There are tons of them!! This is by no means a comprehensive list. My favorite is (of course) Angelina’s pics for St. John. She is perfect for them — so sophisticated and intelligent and worldly. Their clothes are little old for me, but she wears them with such class. Surprisingly, I love Penelope Cruz’s ads [...]

return of the bang?

06Jul07

25Feb07

John’s not around thismorning, which means I can actually watch the best channel on earth — the Beauty & Fashion Channel. This morning they were going through some of the Spring/Summer 07 collections that debuted in Octoberish of last year. It’s a good refresher course about what to wear this season.
I couldn’t find a lot [...]
