Check My Footwork

Check the new Dolce Vita, 4.5 inch, fierce, zip-up, black with gold accent boots. All the ladies are side-eyeing when I step out in these. Trust and believe they will be apart of the YouTube Fashion Haul I'm doing soon. I also think I'm gonna do an actual review on Dolce Vita. They have some hot shoes and they also have hot pieces on their website. That's all for now.

Black Barbie Makes Her Vogue Italia Debut

After the overwhelming successful Black Issue of Vogue Italia where the magazine only used black models...they are back with another all black layout. This time Black Barbie takes center stage.



Editor-In-Chief Franca Sozzani said:
“Barbie has been an icon for whole generations which is why I really wanted to give a strong sign in step with the times, and dedicate the anniversary issue to Black Barbie.”

Check out some of the hot pics:

New Polish Color

I'm trying out a new color with my manicure...Midnight Blue by OPI. It's not truly midnight but more like an electric blue. Either way I'm feeling it! What do you think?

Skin Care Fab Find

I just posted a YouTube Video to my channel (terra63139) where I demonstrate Queen Helene's Mud Pack Masque and it is bomb.com. I'm always looking for products to keep my skin fresh, healthy, and going and Queen Helene always seems to get it done so this item will be worked into my regimen. Here are some stills from the video:



Clean, Fresh Look for the Day!

New Product Review: Maybelline Pulse Perfection Mascara

I just went to Walgreens and got the Maybelline Pulse Perfection Mascara. YouTube tutorial up soon, but in short..I love it! It guarentees 7 things for Lash Perfection:

-Luscious Thickness
-Luxurious Length
-Smooth Seperation
-Intense Color
-Shapely Curve
-Healthy Luster
-Zero Clumps

And I have to say everything is true! I got it in 840 Blackest Black but is also comes in 841 Very Black. It can be found at any drugstore, but Walgreens has a $2 off promotion on the otherwise $14.99 mascara until August 1st. Pics of my excitement!



Here are close ups:

Lazy Sunday...MAC Mini Haul Coming Soon

I just love a lazy Sunday! It's great to just play in some makeup and relax. After church I randomly ended up at the local mall here in St. Louis and where did I head ???? directly to the MAC Store or so I thought. The MAC store in the St. Louis Galleria was CLOSED!?! With no sign or anything...someone in the area please let me know what's up with that?!? But I can always rely on Macy's. I picked up a few things at their counter and a Mini Haul video will be up soon but here are some out takes from my day makeup and my impromptu trip to MACLAND!

Recession Proof Shopping: Forever 21

I love Forever 21! They are the perfect store to update your look without breaking the bank. The trick with stores of this nature is this nature is to stick to the dark and neutral colors (blacks, whites, browns, grays) because these the color of these items give a more expensive look to lower-end fabrics and construction. They have also started, Love 21, the contemporary line that has classic silhouettes and a beautiful, muted color palette. Here are some of my favorite looks:




Fashion First!

MAC Goes Black

These colors hit US MAC Stores and maccosmetics.com on September 24, 2009 and International October 2009!! I can't wait!

Beauty Finds: Sephora Beauty Central

So, I've been internet surfing from my couch all morning and I came across a great site for beauty tutorials from the professionals. Sephora has a section on their site called Beauty Central where they give how to videos on everything: summer looks, beauty must haves, and step-by-step tutorials! I don't understand why I haven't noticed this great section before, but I will definately consult this more often. Here are some of the stills of my favorite looks:
