SAT SHOPPING ♥ NEW TOM FORD MAKEUP

I didn't know what I was going to post for today. So I put it off until today and VOILA! Ruth Crilly, lovely lady of A MODEL RECOMMENDS, has this gorgeous gorgeous vid about the new TOM FORD COLLECTION for Autumn featuring Lara Stone in the upcoming campaign. Now if I was you, and I had time and cash to burn today, this is what I would be spending it on...IF this is your kind of look. I think I've graduated from red or bright lips and the other things that have been popular in the past and all I buy these days is copper, gold and sandy colors. And I've finally started liking my lips nude. It's a bit hard to get used to. This is added to my list of things to buy when I either see the novel (my novel!) online (which will be within the next couple of months) or I start a new gig (which could come before the novel is in stores/online). And I'm buying EVERYTHING. :) (PS You have to admit that Tom Ford does love love 70s Disco...a lot.)♡

LARA STONE IN THE NEW TOM FORD COSMETICS CAMPAIGN. EVERYTHING TOM FORD DOES IS INSANE. HE MUST HAVE BEEN A WOMAN IN HIS PAST LIFE. A HOT ONE. LOVE THESE COLORS AND THIS LOOK.

GIRL FRIDAY ♥ SWEET & VISCIOUS

Here's a gorgeous editorial from W magazine from maybe last year. I hope I didn't already do a post on it, but I'm pretty sure I didn't yet. It works really well with the 60'S BOMBSHELL TUTORIAL post that went up right before this one...which is why I thought of it. It's shot by Alasdair McLellan  and styled by the amazing Jane How.♡

GIRL FRIDAY ♥ 60'S BOMBSHELL HAIR

I love love this YouTube guru HOLLYWOOD NOIR MAKEUP.  She's a make up artist based in Canada who does the most gorgeous and also creative looks. She's very talented. But she, herself, is very bombshell, too. She looks like a lot of the girls I post up on NANCY GIRL. I need to go through her page or her blog again and find out her real name, though. I didn't see it on YouTube. I'll post up an editorial that I think I forgot to put up here that goes really really well with this bombshell hair. I mean, I would love to do this if I was in a city where I could do this. The thing about this is, after you learn how to do it the right way, you can make it as big or small as you like. It's priceless to know. Come back later and see the other GIRL FRIDAY post with the amazing editorial to go along with this. I'm pretty sure I haven't done a post with those photos yet. See you later and enjoy! (I wish I had these Gurus when I was 11 and 12 and aching to learn how to do these things. Looking at a photo and trying to figure it out yourself is rough. I mean, it's just nice that these talents get a channel online and share their knowledge. Love them.) PS Here's an OLDER post that I think this hair goes with brilliantly.xxx♡

THURS SHOE ♥ EXCLUSIVE PETER JENSEN!

These are so so cute. Plus, I love Peter Jensen. These are his Color Block Heart flats (though they call these pumps...how are these pumps?)...they are exclusive to ASOS and  only cost 160£. LOVE these. You know I love cute flats for running around. I'm wearing my gold sequined ballet flats right now and even though they're really scuffed up, they still look awesome. (I notice the shape of the shoes changing quite a bit...getting longer and pointier...keep an eye on it.)♡
