While I am a bit more reserved with my makeup, 

I do enjoy seeing brights come don the runway and on photo shoots.

Gus and Ruby

While exploring Portsmouth- I picked up some goodies at Gus and Ruby. If you are ever in town, this store is a must-stop.

 Picked myself up the perfect giraffe print agenda.

Ale House Inn

 

This week, I traveled to Portsmouth NH to explore some creative options. I was happy to be a guest at the well designed Ale House Inn and look fwd to staying again very soon. The quiet hotel was just our style. I am not sure what I liked more- the glowing Ale sign that we could follow home at night, or the fact that each room has it's own ipad.  Well worth scheduling a quiet trip to the pretty town.

I don't think gold shadow necessarily means "holiday". I really enjoy when a pretty gold metallic shadow gets dressed down. Here, gold shadow meets dewy skin for the perfect every day look.

Products above: Clinique supermoisture makeup + Bobbi Brown Longwear Cream Shadow in Navajo.

Atsuyo Et Akiko

 I have been loving the new Winnie the Pooh commercial that's been playing on television (with the  Keane song). If you're going to give some WTP to one of the little ones in your life-

here is a stylish way.

Atsuyo et Akiko is a children's shop full of modern play clothes and fun accessories. Don't miss it.

dkny gets more personal

As many of you know, I have been working with @dkny for over a year now to help create twitter avatars that match her very popular tweets. I am happy to show you the newest image, which is more up close and personal than the other small square avatars.

You can see it here, along with other illustrations of mine, at her new tumblr. 

(Just when we thought we couldn't get any more personal with @dkny...)
