Daily Style: Crate & Barrel Caldera Bowl

caldera-bowl

This bowl perfectly represents everything I love about fall.

The dark colors are bold and rich and the black swirls and unique shape lend a sense of depth that makes this piece truly remarkable.

The bowl is Artisan-crafted in the technique and tradition of Murano glass and finished with iridescence, high-fired and then pinched into its distinctive, flowing shape.

It’s far too beautiful to hand out Halloween candy in, but I can think of 623 other ways to use this!

Crate & Barrel Caldera Bowl is available online at crateandbarrel.com.

Smashbox Eye Light Waterproof Eye Highlighter and Brush

smashbox-eye-highlighter
I spotted this Smashbox Eye Light Waterproof Eye Highlighter and Brush #34 on QVC’s website this morning and was instantly intrigued – this liner isn’t navy, black, brown or gray – it’s LIGHT!

Upon further examination, I realized it’s that way for a reason; this pearlescent pot is meant to impart eyes with a bright, white quality, in a subtler, more ethereal way than sporting white liner on the inner rims of your eyes.

Better yet, it comes with one of my all-time favorite brushes, so you really can’t go wrong. Why didn’t someone think of this sooner?

Smashbox Eye Light Waterproof Eye Highlighter and Brush #34 is available from QVC for $38.

Khloe Kardashian’s Wedding Makeup: Bold or Neutral?

khloe-kardashian-makeup

Khloe Kardashian, my favorite Kardashian sister, is getting married tomorrow!

She announced on her site this week that she will be marrying NBA superstar Lamar Odom on Sunday, September 27th (tomorrow!) in Los Angeles.

I’m so excited and couldn’t be happier for Khloe but I’m DYING to see her wedding makeup. I wonder if she’ll go bold or neutral?

My guess is she’ll opt for a super smoky eye with peachy pink cheeks and lips. What do you think?
