The CK One fragrance debuted in 1994. I remember like it was yesterday: an androgynous, unisex fragrance that changed everything. At the time, it was all grunge and black, sooty eyeliner: heroin chic. But, CK One smelled light and fresh, juxtaposed amid ads that were black and white, simple with Kate Moss.
I was a sophomore in college and heroin chic was not a reality but a fantasy… in a good way. I was so excited to receive the CK One Street Limited Edition Collection. What a perfect way to experiment with …

I don’t normally wear polish — as many of you know, I am a nail polish strip lover — yet, these butter London nail lacquers are simply flawless when applied! They were all easy-to-apply due to their small and steady application brush, and I also noticed that the second coat really made the color pop. I now see why butter London is in Sephora shops, and is one of the U.K.’s leading nail polish suppliers. They are simply gorgeous!
Sequins, velvet, satin and tweed! This season the runways were abundant with …

New York Fashion Week embodies New York style, and this year the hairstylists of the week showcased their love for some ‘Big Apple’ hair. New York women are modern, chic and always look effortless.  The hairstyles on the runway this season were just that.

A big style on the runway this season was the ponytail; Guido created styles for Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein and Ports 1961. All were simple but cool at the same …

NY Fashion Week is once again upon us, and while everyone is mesmerized by pastels, metallics and flowers I was mesmerized by the hair. All of the breathtaking fashion was nicely juxtaposed with hair of different textures and shapes. Rodney Cutler of Cutler Salons and hairstylist Guido from Redken helps us breakdown the hair trends for Spring 2012.

The biggest trend on the runway was the “wet” hair look. Models’ hair ranged from completely drenched to slightly damp in strategic places, like at Elie Saab.
 

The differentiating feature for this season was …

A few weeks ago, I attended a thoroughly informative session on Tocca’s latest fragrant launches at their New York City flagship store, in a beautifully decorated brick building near the Chelsea Art Museum.
As with everything that Tocca does, the store is nothing short of a dream. With handpainted wall paper to the sparkling chandelier, the space was alive with carefully cut scent bottles, rollerballs, candles and elegant furniture. If I could have rented some small quarters there, I would have. Below is a snapshot of one of their walls, neatly …
