From Bright Clothes to Bright Lips

You know the season calls us to go all out on the brights. But you simply can't wear color?
Wondering how to make your dark corporate outfit alive and more interesting?

Buy lipstick, any girl's secret weapon.



MY TOP 3 PICKS:

1) MAC Pink Friday Lipstick



2) Maybelline Midnight Plum



3) YSL in Rouge Volupte


What's your favorite bright lip?

XOXO,

Closet Essentials

Ladies, trust me on this one. You definitely have to have these. And yes, you should invest on these key pieces too. Not only do you need them to complete an outfit but they will also be your go-to clothes on days that inspiration does not strike so hard. Just like a LBD, every piece on the list is also timeless.

1. White shirt or tank


Mine are mostly from Topshop since I prefer the not-so-stretchy material and the length of course!

2. White crisp button down shirt

Into the Wild


This month's inspiration is for the men and of course the ladies too. Soleen Heusaff graces the cover of one the country's top Men's magazine. Her knockout bod and cover look is definitely a head turner. With a Boracay trip coming up this weekend, I can't wait to bring out those animal prints, golds, wood, and ceramic elements in my outfits. 

What's your beach outfit?

XOXO,
Marga

Local VS. International- Take Your Pick


WHO DID IT BETTER?

April Preview 2011


VS.


Gucci Spring 2011
The Spring Hair and Make-up Look from Gucci Spring 2011 Collection


I personally still prefer Preview's take on the look given that Gucci went a little too over board with the metallic belt, then again, it is Gucci after all.
Wonder who had the idea first?
Liking the shade of Purple from Gucci but feeling more comfortable with Preview's color combination.

Gucci is the more glamorized version of the Preview look, although, I'd wear Toni's ensemble more- in another shade of lipstick.

Who did you prefer?
XOXO,
Erika
