Marc Jacobs Midnight in Paris {Collector's Edition}

I was recently strolling through Sephora (btw I haven't really wanted anything from there lately. It's very odd) and I found this beauty.  The Midnight in Paris Collector's Edition is an absolute gem.  I love Marc Jacobs polishes.  They are pigmented and the wear time is great.  This is no exception.  Marc Jacobs was inspired by the Paris sky when creating this shade.  It is a beautiful deep navy blue that is so appropriate for this time of year.  

  

I have been testing this out for five days and I have little chipping just some tip wear.  I use the Sephora Formula X System with all my polishes and I can tell it definitely helps my polishes last longer.  

Compared to Chanel Blue Boy(LE), Chanel Blue Rebel(LE), Chanel Magic(LE) & Dior Blue Label

Have you picked this polish up ?? What is your favorite polish at the moment ??

Fall Blush Picks {2014}

Fall is in full swing here in New York.  It has gotten pretty chill here and the leaves are turning beautiful shades of red and orange.  So I thought hey why not share your favorite fall blushes.   These blushes are deeper and more appropriate for the fall and winter time.  

Chanel Innocence - This came out with the Fall 2014 collection.  It's a beautiful rosy pink shade. 

Burberry Blossom - This is also a rosy pink but has a hint of peach in it.

Bobbi Brown Nectar - This is a true deep pink and looks great on light skin tones.  

Nars Sin - This is the ultimate fall blush shade.  Sin has a hint of shimmer in it and is a beautiful purple, plum shade.  

Nars Seduction - Seduction is more on the maroon side but has a but of purple in it.  This shade can be pretty intense so use a light hand.  

What are your favorite fall/winter blushes??  Do you change what kind of makeup you wear depending on the season??

Chanel Sweet Star Le Vernis

Every year Chanel releases a nail polish (or two) for Fashion's Night Out.  I have Blue Boy, Blue Rebel, and Magic from previous FNO's and when I saw Sweet Star I knew it had to be mine.  FNO is no longer held in the United States but many other countries do have one.  This year Sweet Star was released in Australia on FNO (back in Septemeber).  It has just released in the United States and I was on a major hunt for it.  I found mine at Bloomingdale's in Soho but, it is now on the Chanel website.

Sweet Star in unlike any polish I own.  It is a duo chrome where in some instances it looks purple and in others it looks gray.  It applies amazingly and lasts for four or so days (I use the Sephora Formula X System).  Two coats is needed because the first coat is a bit streaky but with a second it looks nice and opaque.  I am not quite sure how to explain how amazingly gorgeous this polish truly is.  I have gotten so many compliments wearing it too.  

  

I would say that if you are looking for something unique totally buy this.  I can foresee myself wearing this a lot in the coming months.


What do you think about Chanel Sweet Star ??

My Friday Five #8

Another week has come and gone and I can't believe it is almost November.  Seriously this year has just flew by.  Now onto my favorites this week.

Coco Mademoiselle - I have loved this perfume for years but never took the plunge.  I finally did and so happy about it.  I have always wanted a signature scent and I think this is it.

Tom Ford Spanish Pink - When I first got this lipstick I found it hard to work with my skin tone and dry lips.  But, now I found a great liner (Too Faced) and this lipstick works so well.

Burberry Rosewood Shadow - I have been going for an easy eye look lately and this is it.  It looks great by itself.

Marc Jacobs bookmarc Pouch - I recently took a trip to Bleeker Street (has some of my fav shops) and wandered into Marc Jacobs' store bookmarc.  I found this adorable pouch for my business cards.

Chanel Camelia de Plumes Highlighter - I have fallen in love with this highlighter.  It is so gorgeous and just looks great on the skin.  I am so happy I went and got this!


What are your Friday Five ??
