As the winter days come to close, Guerlain rejoices in the frivolity of the season that heralds happiness and abundance. With the spring come new hopes and a carefree spirit, boosted by luxuriant and jubilant nature.
Are words even necessary?
This indescribable holiday collection from Guerlain is making us weep. (Along with this historical election that just unfolded before our teary eyes. Can you believe?! YES WE CAN.)
Meteorites Butterfly Pearls (maxi pearls in six soft, pearly beige and pink shades) in a limited-edition collector’s box with its lid delicately adorned with an exquisite butterfly is clearly the must-have item of this collection.
In addition, the Meteorites Voyage compact powder for the face, Ombre Eclat eye shadow quartet in Mysterious Butterfly (white, mauve, soft pink and violet), and new shades of KissKiss Color (Delicate Butterfly, a pearly white and Dazzling Butterfly, a sophisticated pink) and KissKiss Gloss (Charming Butterfly, a stunning pink gloss and Intriguing Butterfly a violet shimmer gloss) all add glamorous touches to this special collection.
Guerlain Holiday Collection 2008 Midnight Butterfly is available in November at department and specialty stores and online at guerlain.com.
Are you not mesmerized by this girl?
We’ve had this image up on our computer all day and we can’t stop looking at her. Instead of working on excel spreadsheets, we’ve been daydreaming about every bright pink gloss in our Makeup Bag—imagining how we’ll mix our own shade to perfectly match the one seen here.
(In our daydream, we also have lips that look exactly like these.) (If you’re going to dream, dream BIG.)
If you can pry your eyes off the bright pink lips, here’s the details on the 70′s-inspired collection:

This is lovely.
It caught our eye even before we realized it contained our mother’s favorite fragrance.
The Shalimar Spray Bottle comes filled with eau de toilette and is refillable. If you have a Shalimar fan in your life, this would make a wonderful gift. If not—it would be a very pretty addition to your own vanity.
