Hermès Swinging Silk Party in Toronto!

12 October, 2012 Nelia

Last night, le bf and I attended one of the funnestest parties in a very long time! Hosted by Hermès, the Swinging Silk party had EVERYTHING: photobooth with Hermès silk scarf props, MAC Cosmetics fake tattoos, swing dancing, yummy drinks and food, retro hair makeovers, unicorns on roller-blades ..ok, maybe not the last one, but there was A LOT of fun things to see and do! We both ended up getting tatted up; I asked for a magical Hermès unicorn, while le bf got a heart with my name on it…after some persuading on my part.

We danced, people-watched, gawked at the gorgeous silk scarves everywhere (and on everyone), chatted with our favorite Toronto people, and really took advantage of that photobooth. It was a blast!

But if there was one thing that this party made me realize is that there are zillion ways of wearing one silk scarf! Literally. Zillion. And with Hermès’ brand new Canadian online shopping site, buying a magical silk scarf of my own has never been easier. If only choosing just one was this simple!

Wishlist: Fall 2012 Surrealist Accessories

17 August, 2012 Nelia

surrealist-accessories-fall-2012-2

From Nicholas Kirkwood to Diane Von Furstenberg to Lanvin to MAC Cosmetics, it seems everyone is embracing the surreal and the abstract in fashion. And for someone like me, who loves all things quirky, these pieces are simply perfect. Last week, I actually saw the Kirkwood flats at The Room, and was so tempted to buy them, but I’m afraid le bf would kick me out of the house, if I’d brought another pair of weird-looking shoes home. Obviously, I will still keep an eye on them, just in case a pair is available in my size come sale time.

What do you think of this artsy trend? Are you as into it as me, or do you find it weird? Let me know in the comments!

Carine Roitfeld for MAC Cosmetics

Huge news! Former Vogue Paris editor-in-chief Carine Roitfeld is teaming up with MAC Cosmetics to launch a limited edition colour cosmetics line that’s due to land this fall!

Every time I think of Carine, I envision the dark eyeliner, and a smoky eye, which she proudly sports in the first sneak peek of the collection’s ad campaign. I don’t think I’ve been this excited about a MAC collab since Disney’s Venomous Villains collection.

What do you think of Carine + MAC? Are you inspired by her look? Share in the comments.

MAC Venomous Villains

29 September, 2010 Nelia

When I first heard that MAC was launching a line based on Disney Villains, I was super excited! I mean, seriously, why does everyone have to worship the heroes? The baddies usually have a way cooler wardrobe and, let’s face it, much more fun. And ever since I received the Mean & Green Nail Lacquer and the Devilishly Stylish Lipglass, courtesy of MAC, I haven’t stopped gushing about the fun collection to whoever will listen.

The nail polish is definitely a new favorite – it’s iridescent, and changes its color from purple to green (or purple and black, according to le boyfriend), depending on the way the light hits my nails. I feel oh-so-wicked every time I glance at my fingers. And though I expected a brighter color from a Cruella Lipglass tube, the light nude gloss is incredibly wearable and the packaging is to die for!

MAC Venomous Villains are inspired by the slave-to-fashion Cruella de Vil, Snow White’s vain and beautiful Evil Queen, Sleeping Beauty’s dragon-lady Maleficent, and the “dastardly” Dr. Facilier of The Princess and the Frog. The collection launches on September 30th in North America, and will be available through October 2010. Make sure to get your fave villain, before they are all gone. Being bad has never felt so good!

Lady Gaga For MAC

3 November, 2009 Nelia

Gaga

It was announced yesterday that Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper are the newest faces of MAC’s Viva Glam campaign. The “From Our Lips” campaign will launch on February 25, 2010 featuring the MAC Viva Glam Gaga Lipstick and Viva Glam Cyndi Lipstick, $14 each, will be available in North America on March 18 and globally throughout the month with 100 percent of the proceeds being donated to the MAC AIDS Fund, according to WWD. Lady Gaga seems like the right choice for the campaign, since previous ads featured heavily made up singers/celebrities. I think it’s right up her alley. Very curious to see the palettes!
