Giveaway: NEW! Vera Wang LOOK
I like to think I have a lot in common with Vera Wang. We’re both Asian, we both have daughters… and, well, that’s a lot, right?
You see, if I can convince myself that we’re soul sisters of sorts, I might be able to trick myself into thinking I have a teensy bit of her amazing style. (Did you know Vera was once a senior fashion editor for Vogue?)
Because Vera and I are “likethis” her fragrances seem to be made just for me. My husband bought me a bottle of Vera Wang Signature when it first came out in 2002 and I fell in love. Since then, I’ve tried every new fragrance in her collection and love them all (my favorites have been Truly Pink and Bouquet).
Now, Vera Wang has a new fragrance called LOOK and it’s even better than I hoped it would be.
“A sparkling elixir of mandarin and watery greens are layered with lush notes of lychee and golden delicious apple, filling the top note with a burst of energy and freshness. The vibrant floral bouquet of lily, freesia and jasmine envelopes with femininity and elegance. A natural sensuality is enhanced in the dry down with the richness of indulgent vanilla and skin musk. Touches of oakmoss and patchouli create balance with warmth, depth and character.”
And—just for my darling Makeup Bag readers—I have a bottle of Vera Wang LOOK Elixir (valued at $300) that has been SIGNED BY VERA WANG HERSELF that I’ll be giving away on Wednesday, December 10th.
Leave a comment below and tell me which Vera Wang fragrance you like best and you’ll be entered into the drawing. Good luck!
Vera Wang LOOK is available online at Nordstrom for $70-$90.






So far LOOK has been my favourite.

I love princess…!
Comment by jenniferc — December 8, 2008 @ 10:42 am
Oh, that’s easy! Vera Wang the Fragrance (the one that started it all) is my favorite. My mother bought me a bottle when I graduated high school, and I treasure it for that reason. However, it does something amazing on my skin – and I just love the way it smells on me! Plus, the bottle is classy, and looks fab on my dresser, even after all these years (okay…8 years…).
Comment by Jaime — December 8, 2008 @ 10:48 am

Comment by Keri — December 8, 2008 @ 10:53 am

I LOVE Princess with my whole heart. For the packaging (gorgeous!), the name (OH HAI, I’M A PRINCESS!!!), and it just doesn’t get any better than that scent.

Comment by Monica — December 8, 2008 @ 12:17 pm
I probably like Sheer Veil the best
Comment by seton — December 8, 2008 @ 12:37 pm
I havent had a chance to try the new LOOK fragrance, however I absolutely love the original Vera Wang fragrance. It is so classic and lady-like… Sheer Veil was nice as well but it didnt last too long on me:( And I didnt care much for a Princess- it was too sweet for me… I would love to try the new LOOK:)

Comment by Cecily — December 8, 2008 @ 1:09 pm
I have always liked “Sheer Veil” for its lightness and lavender smell.
Comment by Chris — December 8, 2008 @ 1:51 pm

I just love Signature! I carry it along with me everywhere because I can’t get enough of the unique and sensual fragnance. A feminine touch to a soft and lasting smell, what more can a girl ask for!

Comment by mary — December 9, 2008 @ 12:27 pm
I like all the Vera Wang fragrances, but from the descriptions that I have read of “Look” (haven’t actually smelled it yet), I think this might just become my signature scent! It sounds as if it has a quiet elegance that is what I prefer in a perfume.
Comment by Sherry B. — December 9, 2008 @ 2:46 pm
princess!
Comment by Jenni — December 9, 2008 @ 8:28 pm
