Laura Mercier has an eye make-up product named the “Caviar Stick.” If you are familiar with Laura Mercier’s products, then you already know how amazing and fabulous the “Caviar Stick” can be. If not, let me tell you all about one of my favorite beauty products on the market today; and the fact that Laura Mercier has introduced six new colors!

Laura Mercier’s “Caviar Stick” is an eye make-up tool which can be used as eyeliner or a substitute for eye shadow. The thick stick applies smoothly and evening; drying into a smudge-proof line after roughly 20 seconds. Love that! Laura Mercier’s “Caviar Stick” is also water resistant and stays put even when perspiring on a warm day or working out.

My favorite “Caviar Stick” color has been “Cocoa” for the past three years. I wear Laura Mercier’s “Caviar Stick” in “Cocoa” on a daily basis; many times without mascara or eye shadow. The color is dazzling and the “Caviar Stick” offers enough glamour on its’ own to be worn with casual through dressy eye make-up applications.

The six new colors Laura Mercier has introduced are Tuxedo (matte), Peacock, Gilded Gold, Burnished Bronze, Moonlight, and Copper. These beautiful new colors are a great addition to the “Caviar Stick” by Laura Mercier collection. They will blend well with fall 2014’s metallic and autumn hue color trends; working perfectly with any Fashionista’s fall wardrobe! Love it!

Laura Mercier was kind enough to send me “Burnished Bronze” and “Tuxedo” from the new “Caviar Stick” color collection. I am looking forward to brightening up my eyes with these beautiful new hues! “Tuxedo” is the first-ever matte version of Laura Mercier’s “Caviar Stick.” It offers a dramatic and glamorous finish which is perfect for evening occasions and any occasion which calls for a dramatic eye! I love the “Burnished Bronze” for daytime and casual wear. It is a really pretty color and adds a little, subtle sparkle. I will also continue to use classic “Cocoa” as my go-to “Caviar Stick” for a natural, brown line.

If you have not tried Laura Mercier’s “Caviar Stick” yet, you must try it! I use Laura Mercier’s “Caviar Stick” on a daily basis and cannot imagine life without it! Laura Mercier’s “Caviar Stick'” collection, including the six new colors, Tuxedo (matte), Peacock, Gilded Gold, Burnished Bronze, Moonlight, and Copper, can be found online here, here and here.

 


Green for fall 2014

One of the hottest color trends for the fall 2014 season is green. That’s right! The vibrant hue which claimed color of the year back in 2013, has turned out to be one of the most important color trends for the last season of 2014.

Unlike in 2013, when Emerald green rained supreme, green for fall 2014 is being shown in every shade imaginable. Bright apple green, emerald, and olive hues are dominating store shelves for the upcoming cool weather season. While not dominant on the runways for fall 2014, shades of green were favored by store buyers for the autumn season and have found their way onto store shelves everywhere.

Shades of green are being shown worn together or paired with dark fall neutrals such as brown, charcoal and black. Green is being shown on everything including apparel, shoes, handbags and jewelry. The green trend can be worn as a full ensemble look, or as an accent color to an otherwise neutral toned outfit.

Green will also be a great alternative to classic black this fall 2014 season for special occasions, evening looks and gala gowns. Green will also be a great way to brighten up casual daytime looks.

I found a few fabulous green items for the fall 2014 season around the web and assembled them into the shopping widget below. I hope you love them!

What is your favorite way to wear this upcoming fall 2014 season?


What I wore: Menlo Charity Horse Show

Last week, I attended the Menlo Charity Horse Show with Ariat; more about the event here. I knew the event would be held outside, and on grass, so I opted for a pair of wedges which are easy to walk around in and would not sink into the lawn. I also decided to wear this Kate Spade dress which is made from a light knit. I loved wearing this dress since it was cool enough for a warm August day yet offered enough warmth when the fog started to roll in over the hills. I am definitely looking forward to wearing this Kate Spade dress again as we move from late summer into the fall season. It will be perfect for our warm Bay Area fall weather; and with the addition of a jacket or blazer, it will be ideal when the fog rolls in from the ocean!
