The 5 charm products Amanda’s consumed With for August 2016

I go with phases where I don’t purchase that numerous new charm products as well as phases where I purchase a ton. The past couple weeks have been the latter, as well as in my buying adventures, I’ve discovered a handful of products I truly like, covering whatever from hair care to stylish lip color. I’ve enumerated the great stuff below, including mini-reviews of exactly how the product helped me.

Pick up anything new lately that you love? let us understand in the comments!

Amika Nourishing Hair Mask
$28 through Sephora
I chosen this up for two reasons: First, since the bottom third of my curly, dryness-prone hair is bleached, which implies I try as well as try once again with a great deal of hair masks. Second, since I had heard tons of buddies rave about exactly how great it is. I slathered some on my incredibly parched ends overnight last night, as well as all of the positive things I had heard were correct. even with the long application time (It’s meant as an in-shower deep conditioner, however I needed additional help.), it moisturized my hair without making it heavy or greasy as well as I was very delighted with the results when I washed this morning. Also, it smells great.

First aid charm Facial glow Intensive Peel
$40 through Sephora
After a buddy who I think about something of a charm guru told me she does only chemical, not physical, exfoliation on her face, I’ve been trying essentially every peel I can get my hands on. This month it’s this one, which worked truly well, truly quickly. I like very first aid charm since I’m prone to sensitivity as well as dryness, as well as the brand’s products are formulated with those things in mind. strong peels can exacerbate the particular issues I have with my skin, however this was intense without making me feel dry or tight. The directions state to area test the mask as well as then leave it on for one to five minutes, however I didn’t area test as well as lost track of time playing a game on my phone, so I had a small burning feeling for a couple minutes after I washed it off, however no redness or other sick effects.

Kat Von D liquid Lipstick in Lolita
$20 through Sephora
Liquid lipsticks have big upsides as well as big downsides, as a product category. They offer huge color payoff as well as extremely long wear, however numerous suck all the wetness directly out of your lips as well as feel heavy as well as chalky when they’ve set. A buddy in the market told me Lolita is Sephora’s many prominent lip color best now, as well as I can see why–it’s the lightest, many comfortable liquid lipstick I’ve ever worn, as well as the pinky-brown color would flatter tons of different skin tones. I used everything day as well as it only needed a quick touch-up at the corners after lunch.

Milk makeup Holographic Highlighter Stick
$28 through Sephora
I’m not almost as into makeup as I am into skincare, however after seeing a charm editor buddy get a pre-release tester of this product as well as demo it on Snapchat, I have been extremely impatiently awaiting its in-store arrival. It’s still not offered at any type of brick-and-mortar places near me, however I chosen it up in a recent site purchase as well as it is so cool. While many highlighters are pink, gold or bronze, this has a silver-lavender flash that’s distinct without being challenging to wear.

Sephora Pearl Sheet Mask
$6 through Sephora
I utilized this mask after doing a peel as well as it did precisely as promised–my skin looked bright as well as even as well as it felt well-moisturized.

It sports Birkin-esque closures and flourishes, but has a much more unisex, messenger bag structure. It’s worlds less conventional than other Hermes bag designs – and also, it’s one of Amanda’s personal faves. I can’t decide between the Jypsiere and the Kelly, myself. but wait…this might suggestion the odds in the Jypsiere’s favor – Hermes has deemed, in their unlimited wisdom, that this $7300 Hermes bag ought to be made available to the common masses through the Internet!

The best handbags of the 2013 golden Globes

When it concerns award shows, the gowns get all the televised glory. The bags that are carried with them are typically tiny, of course, and possibly the public at large isn’t as obsessed with the details of a tiny evening bag as we are. That’s their choice, even if I don’t necessarily support or understand it. For everyone else (meaning all of you guys), I’ve done the brave work of identifying as numerous clutches that traveled the red carpet at Sunday night’s 2013 golden Globes as humanly possible.

From the conventional glamour of Roger Vivier on cohost Tina Fey to the futuristic look of nearly naked Jennifer Lopez’s Jimmy Choo, the itty bitty bags were much more interesting than possibly you realized from your couch. check out our slideshow for all of the requisite close-ups alongside the actresses’ full looks.

We’ll start, of course, with the hosts. I loved Amy Poehler’s arrival ensemble, which included a very “Le Smoking” Stella McCartney lady tux, accented with the art deco loveliness of this Judith Leiber Streamline Minaudiere. shop Judith Leiber through Neiman Marcus.

The other half of Sunday night’s hosting duo was, of course, the inimitable Tina Fey. Her arrival ensemble was a L’Wren Scott dress paired with a classic Roger Vivier Pilgrim Clutch. shop Roger Vivier through MyTheresa.

Actress Kristen Bell, who is pregnant with her first child, also chose a Roger Vivier Pilgrim grasp to match her pastel Jenny Packham gown. shop Roger Vivier through MyTheresa.

At times, it seemed like Roger Vivier’s entire evening bag oeuvre was on display on the red carpet. Jessica Alba chose a fluffy Roger Vivier Pochette Prisme Poodle grasp to match her Oscar de la Renta ball gown. shop Roger Vivier through MyTheresa.

The Roger Vivier Boite de Nuit grasp is another of Vivier’s red carpet standbys – Kristen Wiig paired hers with a modern Michael Kors number. shop Roger Vivier through MyTheresa.

Kate Hudson, dressed in dramatic Alexander McQueen, carried the same Roger Vivier Boite de Nuit as Wiig.

Not everyone carried Vivier, though; there was also plenty of Judith Leiber. Helen Mirren accented her Badgley Mischka gown with a Judith Leiber Aurelie Crocodile Clutch. You can have one of your own for $7,995 through Neiman Marcus.

Many stars also chose to stick with their dress designers for their accessories. Julianne Moore, for example, carried a Tom Ford embossed Minaudiere with her customized Tom Ford gown. pick up a gold Tom Ford Minaudiere for $2,700 through Neiman Marcus.

Kerry Washington went with the quasi-brand match; her grasp is a Prada Silk Minaudiere, while her dress came from little sister brand Miu Miu. shop Prada through Neiman Marcus.

You can always count on Helena Bonham Carter for cheeky red carpet accessories choices, and her Lulu Guinness Lips grasp fits her personality to a T. You can have a lips grasp of your very own for $465 through Lulu Guinness.

Speaking of odd handbag choices, Alyssa Milano chose a Thale Blanc Adrianne grasp with a rather large bedazzled leopard head on it. It can be yours for $1,815 through Thale Blanc.

Like Alyssa Milano, Katharine McPhee didn’t choose an apparent brand – she chose the Oroton society grasp to go along with her Theyskens’ theory dress. shop this Australian brand through Oroton.com.

On Sunday night, I learned one thing: If you see a sleek, perfectly proportioned, understated box grasp on the red carpet, it’s probably made by Salvatore Ferragamo. winner Jennifer Lawrence was one of numerous stars who chose his evening bags for the occasion. She paired hers with Christian Dior Haute Couture. shop Ferragamo through Neiman Marcus.

Megan Fox carried a Salvatore Ferragamo Minaudiere to offer a bit of color to her Dolce & Gabbana dress. shop Salvatore Ferragamo bags through Neiman Marcus.

If you could pull your eyes away from Jennifer Lopez’s seemingly painted-on Zuhair Murad dress, then you might have discovered her mirrored silver Jimmy Choo Cosma Clutch. pick up a colorful version for $1,595.

Brahmin leather works Sienna Collection Sophie tote

When I find out that a designer company has named a collection after me, I will feel like my life is complete. just kidding, odds are way against that happening for me. but I can dream right? I’m sure everyone has both attainable and unattainable dreams, just like me. I’m also dreaming that I can pop a tooth of my mouth and the Tooth Fairy will bring me the new beautiful Chloé Python Doctor’s Bag. and chances are… I will keep dreaming about both.

There was a point to my dream of wanting a collection named after me. The lovely designers of Brahmin leather works have an entire collection called the Sienna. I do not know if the collection is named after the Sienna that we all know, but it sure reminded me of that. I have fallen in love with Sophie. Not the person, the bag. The Brahmin leather works Sienna Collection Sophie tote is impeccably designed and very appealing to the eyes. The site offers some details of the bag, but not the aesthetics. What we do hear is that the tote features double handles, a black slide in pocket, a magnetic top buckle closure, an interior zip pocket, and protective feet for this leather beauty. I’m not sure which of you like that the detail pattern is only on the front of the bag, while the back is simply leather. sometimes I want the bag to look uniform, but in this case I am diggin’ the bag. The front pattern reminds me of Bimini (where I should be right now if it weren’t for that dumb hurricane) with its fruit, flowers, and sun pattern. The measurements of this bag are 14.75 x 6.5 x 5.25. add a little island fun to your wardrobe for $475 through Brahmin leather Works.

RHOBH: “A mutt’s a canine that has no breeding. mom has class, though.”

genuine Housewives of Beverly Hills typically isn’t a nostalgic show, however last night, they insisted on devoting much more or less an entire episode to sending two Housewives spawn off to college, as well as that brought about some memories for me. It was practical that it did, actually, since the episode was fairly tiring other than that. Lisa mustered up some tears again, however by that point in the episode, we had spent so much time shipping people off to college that her tears seemed out of context at best. Also, I was distracted by Carlton’s spangly tube top.

1. Lisa as well as Ken skipped town. After last week’s dinner explosion, Lisa as well as Ken took their sphere as well as went home. Like, got on a airplane as well as flounced out of Puerto Rico, either like people who have been wronged or people who have been caught, depending upon your estimation of the situation. I’m still feeling relatively ambivalent about Lisa’s function (or lack thereof, maybe) in Tabloidgate, however you have to admit that it’d be good to be rich sufficient to storm off on a airplane at a moment’s notice.

2. Yolanda does a respectable task pulling of a big-girl onesie. The large majority of people look like morons in jumpsuits, however Yolanda isn’t the large majority of people! She’s a retired Dutch design with her own lemon grove in her backyard overlooking the ocean in Malibu, as well as that implies when she puts on a yellow tube top onesie, she makes you believe that maybe, just maaaaaybe, you might wear one too, if you discovered the best one. The entire fashion market is based on this phenomenon, much more or less.

3. Fridge tour! If I ever stepped foot in Yolanda’s house, I’d certainly want to examine her refrigerator as well as perhaps stand inside of it, so I extremely much respect that Brand’s parents’ trip of Yolanda’s location started with them staring in question at her glass-doored refrigeration system.

4. I hope to someday get a cars and truck with a huge red bow. Where does one obtain a huge red bow? Can I purchase one on Amazon as well as stick it on the 6 train I trip to midtown every morning? Asking for a friend.

5. Kim’s infant dad (fine, ex-fiance) is HOT. I feel like we’ve discussed this before, however Kimberly’s daddy…damn girl. I have a whole new respect for Kim for locking that down for as long as she did. He blows Mauricio out of the water, even if we had never discovered out that Mauricio is type of a whiny baby.

6. I am so mad at Gigi’s apartment. Not only was my college house not that good (in Athens, Georgia, where good is dirt cheap), however my 28-year-old grown lady new York house isn’t that nice. Not even close. If she’s downtown (and you understand she’s downtown), her lease is most likely $5,000 a month. if not more. $5k won’t even get you stainless steel appliances in Tribeca.

7. My college drop-off was not almost so dramatic. This episode was type of boring, so let’s have story time. I drove as much as college in my cars and truck as well as my parents complied with me in my mom’s, we hauled a trunk as well as a small fridge up the Creswell Hall service elevator as well as that was that. They left, I walked to the only restaurant anybody on my hall understood about to have dinner with my new neighbors as well as then I spent the next week wandering around campus, trying to figure out where I had left my car. auto parking great deals all look the same.

8. “We have to support Beverly Hills!” I comprehend what Lisa was getting at, however Beverly Hills isn’t, like, about to miss lease or anything. Beverly Hills will still survive, as a concept, if Lisa as well as Ken sit this next celebration out.

9. I respect Yolanda’s willingness to get in someone’s face. Not to get in people’s faces for no reason, since that is a extensive genuine Housewives character trait, however to zero in on something really impolite that someone’s doing to her as well as directly address it while it’s happening. So numerous people get as well flustered to pick out the bit passive-aggressive things as well as state something about them in the moment, however Yolanda has an uncommon skill for it, as well as it makes her Lisa’s many capable foil by far.

One Chanel traditional Flap Bag, one Roger Vivier Pilgrim Clutch, some bags I most likely missed while in a college nostalgia k-hole.

Introducing the Louis Vuitton stickers Collection

because Nicolas Ghesquière took the helm at Louis Vuitton, there have been some major, stand-out handbag moments for the brand. The petite Malle, while quite expensive, has grown a major fan following along with other designs. recently I shared the monogram Infrarouge, a new black and red twist on the classic Monogram, and if you ask us, the fall 2015 collection is filled with the best bags from the brand in recent memory.

It looks like the sticker trend we’ve seen from Anya Hindmarch and other brands is something Ghesquière likes as well. The new Louis Vuitton sticker pattern brings a new edge to the monogram Vernis leather. The feel of the pattern is very retro-contemporary, with vintage-feeling stickers on white glossy Vernis leather. The stickers include the petite Malle Bag, as well as lipstick, nail polish, headphones, cars, and salt and pepper shakers. Each sticker has a vintage feel and gives a very old school look to classic LV designs.

The Louis Vuitton Sticker Collection comes in a variety of items, including scarves, but as far as the handbags go, it’s available in the Alma PM, Alma BB, petite Malle and Pochette Accessoires. because the pattern looks busier on the larger PM version, I think BB gives the best amount of print against the black and white Vernis. prices range from $910 to $5,500 through Louis Vuitton.

Louis Vuitton Alma PM Stickers
$2,820

Louis Vuitton petite Malle Stickers

Louis Vuitton Alma BB Stickers

Lanvin focuses on purses for spring 2013

Lanvin’s bag line has already been a bit of a secret to me. With the cherished Alber Elbaz at the helm as well as such a strong location within the industry, why doesn’t Lanvin do a lot more with bags? The chances are endless, however the brand’s efforts have always seemed a bit restricted – nice, however not as great as they might have been. As it turns out, the brand checked out its bags the exact same way, as well as months ago, Lanvin revealed that it would redouble its efforts to charm to purse customers. As if Alber weren’t already near as well as dear to our hearts.

Lanvin spring 2013 is the very first collection where those modifications are being provided to the public, as well as so far, so good. There’s a big choice of both brights as well as neutrals, which includes both old favorites like the Lanvin delighted carry Bag as well as new appears like the Lanvin new Partition carry Bag. The collection feels substantially a lot more contemporary than Lanvin’s bags have in the past, which is fantastic if you like the direction that the market is headed in (and, of course, not so fantastic if you like a softer, a lot more standard look.)
