Where can you read an original story by Diane Von Furstenberg, a letter by Lynda Carter, and an introduction by Gloria Steinem all in the same book? DVF’s comic book, The Adventures of Diva, Viva & Fifa. She just launched her Wonder Woman inspired holiday collection this week at her studio and the book was one seriously haute highlight to the evening.

The book is a limited edition for the holidays and can be purchased online at the DVF site - all of the book’s proceeds benefit Vital Voices, a nongovernmental organization that embodies Von Furstenberg’s goal to empower women to find inner strength on a global scale.
Get ‘em while there haute!…

The latest packaging trend – roll-on beauty products – is really making its mark. Skip the lengthy beauty routines, have less of a mess and roll your way to beauty! Check out a few of our skincare, makeup and fragrance favorites below:
By Terry VIP Skin-Expert Peace & Glow
This calming and soothing multi-active skincare roller ball activates micro-circulation and drains tense and puffy areas. Features are softened, skin tissue is relaxed and the serenity of the face is restored. Active ingredients include hydro-calming extracts, antioxidants and regenerating proteins. Antioxidant properties protect skin fibers from free-radical stress damage.
Price: $65, available at Barneys and www.barneys.com

Philosophy Amazing Grace Concentrated Perfume Oil
The ultimate must-have item for all Grace devotees is here. Now you can roll-on the amazing clean and infinitely feminine scent of Philosophy’s best-selling fragrance, Amazing Grace. Perfect for the girl on the go, this roll-on fragrance makes it easier than ever to take Grace wherever you go.
Price: $25, available at www.philosophy.com

Kinerase Clear Skin Blemish Dissolver
This convenient stick with a roller-ball applicator offers precise spot application that helps reduce the appearance of blemishes and other breakout-related skin imperfections.
Price: $39, available at www.sephora.com

Garnier Skin Renew anti-puff eye roller
Roll away under-eye puffiness and dark circles for brighter, more radiant eyes. Caffeine decongests puffiness and diminishes dark circles and Pro-Vitamin B5 refreshes and hydrates the delicate eye area. Skin Renew gently stimulates micro-circulation around skin’s delicate eye area to decongest excess fluid for diminished dark circles and puffiness.
Price: $12.99, available at Walgreens

Lorac Double Feature
LORAC Double Feature delivers red-carpet-worthy correction and perfection. Cover undereye circles and hide blemishes with this oil, paraben, and fragrance-free full-coverage, long-wearing concealer stick, then blend in with the blender ball.
Price: $24, available at www.sephora.com

Tarte Lock & Roll Creaseless Eyeshadow Duo
Unlike traditional cream shadows that crease and smudge, Tarte Lock & Roll Creaseless Eyeshadow is waterproof and crease proof. A new twist on the makeup artist trick, the matching loose shadow in a roller ball applicator glides easily over cream shadow to lock color in and add luminosity so color lasts all day.
Price: $17, available at www.sephora.com

Cold winter winds will be here before we know it…order Jane Iredale Sugar & Butter Lip Exfoliator ($24 at DermStore.com) now to keep your lips soft & full (there’s nothing cute about dry, chapped lips).
One end is a yummy brown sugar exfoliator you gently rub on & lick off. A moisturizing lip plumper on the other end softens and adds fullness along with a wash of sheer color. Use it alone or under your lip color.
