Lollipop Bling by Mariah Carey

The innovative candy inspired trio of Fragrances, Lollipop Bling  by Mariah Carey is the  perfect Fragrance for the sophisticated, but young at heart Trendsetter.  Elizabeth Arden and Topps Candy Company have partnered to create a sunny, addictive and floral trio of Fragrances. 

"The Inspiration for Lollipop Bling was Nick's marriage proposal to me", says Mariah Carey. "He first surprised me with a ring pop - romantic, fun, and young at heart - like me! The three scents of Lollipop Bling make me smile and I can't wait to share them with my fans." - Mariah Carey

Do you remember Ring Pops??  I use to love them when I was a kid! Ring Pops were cute and stylish, tasted great, and of course smelled like delicious candy!  These three fragrances invoke all of these things, just as planned!  The packaging is even beautiful and fun!  The Seductive red  Mines Again , the yellow sunny  Honey, and the blue floral Ribbon are in small jeweled toned bottles topped with the Mariah Carey signature butterfly! Everything about these fragrances are perfect!

When I opened the box  - I was shocked to see there were three boxes named Lollipop Bling, but as I read closer I could see it was a collection.  I absolutely love this collection!  I select my daily fragrances according to my mood - as a Trendsetter should ! There  are no other words to descibe the scents other than yummy, flirty, sensual, mouth watering, and enchanting!   I have worn one of the three fragrances almost daily since I received them - even better people have asked what are you wearing, I love that!  I quickly state Lollipop Bling by Mariah Carey, lol, and send them to the nearest Macy's!  And I am sure your all wondering how much these fragrances cost  well...... Each bottle is 30ml which is equal to 1.0 fl oz for a mere $36.00, now you cant tell me that something so beautiful and smells so irresistible can't  be purchased  at  that great cost!?!

Trendsetters, again looking great is so important, but smelling great is just as important too! Mariah Carey has been setting trends for years  - and she has definitely set another with the Lollipop Bling Collection.. Calling all Beautiful, Trendsetting, Seductive, Fun , and Young at heart....this is a season must have find one that works for you or buy all three:)!  And yet again, Mariah has stolen my heart  with another fab and glam fragrance!


Until Next Time....

The Day After the 82nd Oscars

The 82nd Oscar Awards were yesterday evening. So, you know we had to bring you a tidbit of the fab and glamour. I must say I wasn't in complete awl with the fashion/gown choices this year! But we definitely had some stunning beauties!

Is it just me or does Sarah Jessica Parker always appear in the role of Carrie Bradshaw? She was stunning in her Chanel Couture gown, that she has to return today *her words on the red carpet*! And husband Matthew Broderick wearing a well tailored classic style Tom Ford Tux! Now, that's a head turning couple! Congrats to Ms. Oscar winning Mo'Nique wearing a curve hugging, in all the right places, Tadashi Shoji gown! She appeared very old hollywood with a white Gardenia flower in her hair, beautiful! And there is nothing like having a dapper man by your side, her husband Sidney Hicks...Loving the glasses Sir!
The Ever Classic Meryl Streep was beautifully stunning in her all white gown, but when isn't she beautiful? Actually, her gown had a little trend empire waist and faux wrap. She appeared fresh and alive. A true veteran..we love her! Another veteran who has built an empire for herself is Mariah Carey. She kept it classic as well in a Navy Valentino gown with vintage inspired oversized broach at the waistline. Now one thing the trendsetter doesn't do is bash people, but I want everyone to know including Mariah a well polished look begins underneath, its your foundation. Enough said.....
One Trend that will appear this spring is nude *color* and Demi Moore did it all so well in this gown! It was just enough drama and elegance for a Class act :)! Queen Latifah looked amazing in her one shoulder gown *another trend* in light lilac. She glowed in this gown, it was a perfect style and shape for her curvy bod! Congrats to Sandra Bullock who won an Oscar! Her velvet embellished gown by Marchesa had frock like inspiration! The Perfect dress for a First time winner!

Vera Farmiga also wearing Marchesa, looked like a walking piece of art! Striking color and intricate design. Zoe Saldana wore a flowy Lavender Givenchy gown, although it was alot of dress I thought she looked great in the gown. A couture barbie doll is what she looked like, she wore the dress with grace and confidence ........She is a beautiful young woman!






From the looks of the red carpet I predict showing shoulders will be one of the prominent trends for the upcoming season! Time to start looking for those dresses and tops that show just a little extra skin * please be tasteful ;)! Okay my loves ....



Until Next Time....

Twinkle by Wenlan Fall Collection

Striking hues of mustard, mauve, olive green, and royal blue frolic the runway this season in Twinkle's collection. Black finds a new romance with nude and vanilla to follow. Jacquards summon light, nude and sheer chiffon's duet, and chucky and baby knits dominate. The collection conveys flattering silhouettes and slimmer lines. Hardware-exposed zippers, beading, studs, and chains push these looks to the max!

This was a very feminine collection and I adored the play on color, texture, and the subtle hardware detail, it was just enough! The contradiction of silhouettes transformed this collection to extraordinary and chic! This is the perfect collection for the stylish and trendy! And if you merchandise the pieces with the right coordinates it will translate the perfect office to event look!



Just don't make your look stylish make it "Twinkle", Stars shine bright you know? ;)



Until Next Time.....
