Irving Rice Illuminated Mirror

This illuminated mirror by Irving Rice is gorgeous.

With 5x magnification and a polished brass stand this has to be the most handsome makeup mirror we’ve ever encountered.

If it weren’t for the $450 price tag it would be a Makeup Bag must-have.

Viva La Juicy

It’s hard to admit that we like a fragrance with a name like Juicy . Nothing against the brand—we just have a hard time finding appeal in that word. Juicy.

Joooooooocy.

Blech.

We’ve been doing a bit of back-to-school shopping this week and Bailey has found every opportunity to sneak over to the fragrance counter and douse herself in Viva La Juicy .

She loves it so much, it has made its way to the top of her birthday list (she turns 15 next month) right next to a $300 pair of D&G Sunglasses (fat chance, Bailey!) and another pair of True Religion jeans.

With notes of Wild Berries, Mandarins, Honeysuckle, Gardenia, Jasmine, Amber, Caramel, Vanilla, Sandalwood and Praline—this creamy floral is sweet and girly, yet totally likeable.

Viva La Juicy ($65-$85) is available online at Sephora.com .
