Just a quick scan I did of the crowd prior to the opening of the Monarch show. Janice Dickinson was there, as well as Rev. Run's daughters.

My L'Oreal Fall Makeup Look
I've spent the day at the L'Oreal Technical Center learning about all kinds of good stuff. One thing I got to do was to create my own face chart with products supplied to me by L'Oreal.
On the face is Bare Naturale in Sugar Plum. Eye products are the Hip Duo in Striking and Extra Intense Liner in Gray. Lips are Naturally Nude Lipcolor. And InfLluble Plumping Gloss in Plumped Tawny. Enjoy!
Great Stuff Coming Soon!
Just a super short and sweet post to let you all know that I have been busy at a beauty blogger conference in New York City the past few days so that I have even better things to write about.
I will also be attending some shows at New York Fashion Week, so look for some incredible coverage from the tents.
Tonight is Fashions Night Out, and I'll be hitting the stores here in Manhattan and reporting back all the goings on. So you'll be hearing more from me super soon!
Reading List: That Extra Half an Inch
by Victoria Beckham.I've never been a big Posh fan, and I'm not sure why. I think I was too old for the Spice Girl phenomenon, and while I've always admired her husband, she always looked rather plastic. But I do love a good fashion read, and she has a put-together style that I've always appreciated. No sloppy starlet look for her - I don't think she steps out without her heels and Birkin bag.
The book is filled with loads of advice, from the perfect fit of jeans to how to avoid looking frumpy when in need of maternity wear. My favorite piece of advice was, if you're showing off your legs, cover up your top, and vice versa - not because it's conservative, but because it's such a nice change from the porn culture we just see much too often (I love you, Simon Doonan
).The book was originally published in Great Britian, and you have to check the terminology twice - tank tops are "vests" over there, and vice versa. I thought it made it even more interesting and charming. But you'll get the hang of it.
All in all, an excellent addition to any style and fashion lover's library. Also a great read if you're looking to perk up your style, or just don't feel all that confident putting things together. Ms. Beckham has a true gift for styling, even if her denim line didn't do that great here in the States.
