Crash Course

Scoped out a really cute event for the Los Angelitas!

MAC

I was recently clowned by friends for wearing slate purple nail polish a couple weeks back (see pic here). I thought my nails were super cute but after getting some interesting looks and only one compliment that night I ended up changing the color to my fall back OPI pink.

This morning I get an email from a friend at MAC announcing their latest nail trends and launch of their new colors for Fall 09. And interestingly enough there it was…the same shade of purple that I was wearing! MAC’s new collection is a collaboration with nail guru extraordinaire Jin Soon Choi. The collection has six opaque shades priced at $12.00 a bottle. The new colors are expected to be released in late August.
The moral of the story my friends, is to trust your instincts and to not let anyone dictate your style. If you think it looks good, chances are it looks GREAT! Be your own trendsetter and keep that nail polish on until it starts to chip!

Yes, I know some of the items above are not on sale...but hey, a girl can still dream!

P.S. why were you not on sale when I came to visit you?

Preview

Our lovely MADE model and blogger Martine is making moves again. This time she’s won the hearts of Manila fashionistas and was recently chosen as Preview’s top 10 dressed women. This is a pic of Martine lounging in the comforts of her new digs in Hollywood. Why is she dressed in a pink tulle gown you ask…well you’ll just have to read her blog to find out!

I would post a pic of how I look when I’m lounging at home…but I don’t think rocking my college hoodie and Old Navy pajama pants is very flattering. So yeah let’s not go there.
Congrats again Martine!!!

SD Let me plan your weekend...

SD I’m starting to get jealous. It’s bad enough that you are home to constant sunshine; my dad’s home cooking; the California burrito; and my favorite. But now I’m getting all these flyers for 4th of July festivities that I’m missing out on and I’m straight jealous.
