BeautySpark: Blue Eyes

Bright eye shadow was always my thing as a teenager. Slowly, I’ve moved to the dark, smokey-gray look, but lately I’ve been nostalgic for that wide-eyed, disco superstar appearance. Proenza Schouler marched models down the fall 08 runway with a shocking electric blue hue surrounding their eyes. Frosty peacock shadow goes really well with lilac accents for a more ethereal look. But the method I have always loved, and Eve agrees with me, is to line the eye in black before smothering your lids with a thick layer of bright blue. It makes the eye pop and is more practical for the streets. Plus, it reduced your chances of looking too much like a martian. My favorite is M.A.C. eye shadow in Clarity, but I’m sure the many brands of Sephora can serve all of your baby blue needs.

New York Fashion Week: Proenza Schouler

I believe that with this Spring 09 collection Proenza Schouler have lost their touch. The shapes of the garments with the over-exaggerated shoulders does not do a woman justice and brings back fashion design about 20 years. The leather onesie is awful, and the plastic insets reminds me of Versace circa the 90s. Even the skinniest woman would look many pounds heavier in these looks. The line between innovation and exasperation has been crossed cause I’m totally over this coal miner meets Delta Burke collection.
