NYFW Beauty Best: Kérastase Paris for Jason Wu

Birthday Wishlist: High to Low

I've got a big birthday coming up later this month (YES, I'm a LEO), and as per us, I'm planning a little indulgence - after all, if I can't buy myself a fabulous gift, who will? Here's what's on my birthday wishlist, from high to low. Let's see where I land at the end of the month!

How:

  1. Use Kérastase Lotion Densitive to add thickness and texture  to hair.

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2011: Beauty Beat at Jason Wu

Jason Wu is yet another designer whose show I didn't manage to cover this season, but he's a young talent that I REALLY admire.  And now, Wu is taking his brand to the next level with his first ever collaboration with CND.

Available for purchase next May, the 5 piece Jason Wu Collection ($47) was gifted to show guests this weekend and includes:

 

  • Miss Wu - Jason's signature limestone, a warm gray that dries matte with subtle chrome sheen, in perfect harmony of masculinity and femininity
  • Brigitte - voluptuous warm pink that perfectly channels 50's screen siren
  • Sophia - gorgeous mushroom taupe
  • Veronica - highlights the evolution of decadence with a blue-based, oxblood red
  • Anna Effect - layered over any of the four Colours provides a tweed finish via microscopic fibrous pieces that create cool, subtle texture

 

I must admit that while nail polish is the last thing in the free world that I need to acquire more of, I'll be adding this set to my spring shopping list.

What do you think? Do any of Wu's color creations speak to you?

Jason Wu FTW!

I'm not going gaga for the gown, but what a COUP for young designer and fashion editor darling, Jason Wu.  The FLOTUS, Michelle Obama, is wearing the 26 year old's dress - a chic one shouldered silhouette in white chiffon with (and this is where he lost me) appliques and beading for the Inaugural Balls tonight.

What do you think? Was Michelle a Fashion Do or Don't tonight?  Tell me in the comments!
