Raf Simons said goodbye to his post at Jil Sander this season.  Another magazine has a great interview with the florist who complimented the extraordinary show.  Some of Mark Colle’s work below:

I adore the blog Into The Gloss.  It’s an organized blog focused on beauty.  Today’s post featured Gaia Repossi, the amazingly beautiful and talented jewelry designer.  The photos are well done and show a great peak into a person’s beauty regimen, in Gaia’s case, a little goes a long way.  She always has a fresh no makeup look and it suits her perfectly.

The truth though, is I mostly posted this because her cat is out of this world cool, check out that beautiful pattern on its back!

I can’t stop staring at this Vogue Italia May 2011 image.

Tell me, where oh where can I find this spike hair accessory?

I need to grow out my layers so I can tie it in a knot this summer.

My friend Bong has been raving about Tata Harper‘s skin care line.  So imagine how ecstatic I was when my friend S sent me a starter kit by Tata Harper for my b-day.  After trying all of the products these are my thoughts:

  • Light, probably ideal for oily or normal skin, not hydrating enough for my very dry skin
  • Great for sensitive skin
  • Natural scents were amazing
  • No SPF products…bummer
  • Very disappointed in the home made feel.  The bottles are just fine.  But the labels are very homemade looking and for such expensive products, you’d think they could at least be applied in a way that it isn’t bubbling or crooked…am I asking for too much?

Conclusion: Love the Hydrating Floral Essence.  Perfect for misting on a long flight or during the day on top of makeup in order re-hydrate, but probably won’t purchase any of the other products.  Hope that all their PR hype (they’ve been featured in Vogue etc.) will enable them to package their products a bit more professionally.

I need a new hair cut.  Any suggestions for salons in NYC that won’t break my piggy bank?  Thinking of this look.
