Laura Mercier’s Rouge Nouveau Weightless Lip Colour is one of my favorite lipsticks. It always goes on smoothly and never cakes. The color is long lasting and moisturizes my lips. Love that!

Coy is a fabulous color which was introduced for the fall/winter season into the Rouge Nouveau Weightless Lip Colour collection. I love lipstick colors which are easy to wear and offer natural appeal. Coy is the perfect lipstick hue for looking natural. It has a warm, pale look which is perfect for daily wear. Coy Rouge Nouveau Weightless Lip Colour by Laura Mercier is my current go-to lipstick color which has a permanent place in my purse this fall/winter season.

I am thrilled to have Laura Mercier’s Rouge Nouveau Weightless Lip Colour in Coy for the fall/winter season; of course, I love the entire Rouge Nouveau Weightless Lip Colour collection!

Nars Sherwood nail polish for winter 2015 review

nars sherwood nail polish review

Pictured: Nars Sherwood nail polish from the winter 2015 color collection.

Nars has a fabulous collection of nail polishes for the winter 2015 season. The colors are cool and ideal for the winter 2015 color palette. I love this winter 2015 nail polish from Nars; Sherwood. Sherwood by Nars is a beautiful, medium purple nail polish hue which is easy to wear with pastels, bright colors and neutrals. Love that!

I tested out Nars Sherwood nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color. The nail polish held up well and lasted six days with only one small chip on my index finger. I love the subtle sparkles in the nail polish which add dimension to the color. 

Nars also has a fabulous nail polish application brush which is flat and the perfect size for gliding easily on my nails. Nars nail polish applies smoothly and does not make a mess; huge plus! The brush is easy to balance too. Another huge plus!

I am looking forward to wearing Nars Sherwood nail polish this winter 2015 season. To find Nars Sherwood nail polish and the winter 2015 beauty collection online, please click here and here.

The rain has finally stopped, at least for a few days, which means I get to wear my new blue suede shoes! Yay! I had been eyeing these shoes by Aquazurra for several months, but I was waiting for the right color to come along. When I spotted them in this pretty blue hue at ShopBop, I knew it was time to pull the trigger. I am so happy I did!

One of the hardest things to find is a comfortable pair of high heels; especially a pair which is 4″ high. There are a few brands or designers which I find comfortable, but unfortunately, they are far and few between. I heard through the grapevine that Aquazurra’s high heels are incredibly comfortable, so I knew I needed a pair! I am glad I found this pair in blue because they are both comfy and cute. Love that!

From now on, I am going to keep my eye on Aquazurra for new colors and styles. Since this pair is comfortable, I know more styles from the brand will be too. Three cheers for adding a comfy brand to my approved list of shoes!

A few of my favorite high heels brands, which are both beautiful and comfortable, are Manolo Blahnik, Joie, Aquazurra and Valentino. Which shoe brands do you find make comfortable high heels?
