MAC loves Barbie – Barbie loves MAC

January 29, 2007

As many of you probably know, MAC is debuting the Barbie Loves Mac collection inspired by who else…Barbie!! Peter Lichtenthal, general manager of MAC cosmetics, says it is obviously designed for adults and intended to be a very sophisticated makeup collection.

The MAC ad says, ‘…Inspired by your favorite fashion idol for all you living dolls”. The collection includes lipstick, lip glass, eye shadows, liquid last liner, blush, glimmer shimmer, beauty powder and nail lacquer.

Oh, and of course they’ve created a MAC Barbie retailing for $35!!! A definite must-have:)

Do you RAKKU?

January 29, 2007

I don’t know there’s just something about this that doesn’t look so haute to me. Yes, I am always searching for a way to better organize my abundant shoe collection, but I am not sure I want a bunch of shoe-wheels.

I could be wrong, this might be amazingly helpful. If you’ve used one or know someone who has please let us know! My mother is actually going to purchase one so I will keep you posted on her review.

For now, my verdict is still out on the RAKKU

3 Great Fragrances

January 26, 2007

Looking for a new fragrance for Valentine’s Day?


The Aroma M Sampler Set includes large vials of their 11 fragrances beautifully wrapped like little candies. Try them all and find just the one (or 2 or 3) that you and your Valentine both adore! available at luckyscent.com


A.Maze is the newest release from avant-garde Dutch fashion label, People of the Labyrinths. Their first fragrance, Luctor et Emergo has a major cult following. You definitely won’t be smelling either one of these on every other gal in town. A.Maze is a beautiful rose-based scent that won’t remind you (or him) of Grandma. available at luckyscent.com



Vera Wang’s latest, Truly Pink, is a romantic rose that’s pretty and easy to wear. Try it at Macy’s or Dillards.

Stiletto Strength

January 26, 2007

A few weeks ago, I asked my physical-therapist friend for a few exercises I could do to increase my ankle strength. “Do you have an injury”, she asked. “I just want to be able to wear stilettos to a party and not fall flat on my face” was my response. She suggested a few exercises…and they have really made a difference.

Crunch Fitness in NYC offers a stiletto strength class, but you can also get great results on your own.

Here are some exercises from the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society to strengthen the ankles, and some core strengthening exercises from the Mayo Clinic. (Sorry we couldn’t find any more attractive pictures:)) Of course, you may need to ask your Doctor before embarking on a stiletto strengthening regime…we don’t want to be responsible for any injuries!

We’ve told you about foot petals, but another insert is available that claims to shift weight from the ball of the foot to the heel. Insolia inserts are available locally at CVS and at insolia.com.
