Estee Lauder Pairs with Michael Kors and Brings the Goodness



I'm a sucker for all things Michael Kors. I can't help it - he's just too fabulous for me. And now he's inserted himself into the world of makeup, courtesy of Estee Lauder. This collection is exactly what I would expect from Mr. Kors, although I had figured it would include more gold.

At any rate, the Very Hollywood collection came to be due to the longstanding friendship between the noted American designer and Aerin Lauder, the Senior Vice President and Creative Director at Estee Lauder. The group of products is obviously limited edition, and won't be around long.

The first look is Bel Air Beige, which combines a classic smoky eye with shimmering peachy lips and cheeks.

The second look is Rodeo Pink, and features a raspberry toned cheek and lip, with a defined eye.


Along with both the color stories seen here, there are three additional products that can be used with either palette, such as the Estee Lauder Michael Kors Very Hollywood Shimmering Loose Powder which creates a dewy and luminous glow; and the Estee Lauder Michael Kors Very Hollywood Lip Sheen SPF 15 and Lip Gloss in Hollywood Glow. Wear the two together for golden sun-protected lips, or each on their own.

The limited edition Very Hollywood will be at select Estee Lauder counters nationwide and available at EsteeLauder.com as well.

Michael Kors is Very Hollywood and Has a Lot Going On



Michael Kors loves to bring the fabulous, doesn't he? And he thinks that we all need to be red carpet ready, so he has launched a new fragrance collection, Very Hollywood, as well as a website, VeryHollywood.com.

The collection is unusual, in that it has a few things that we don't normally see. Of course, it's extremely visually appealing, which is exactly what we expect from Michael, with lots of pink glamour. Let's take a look at the entire collection.

Limited Edition Very Hollywood Michael Kors Hollywood Gem Solid Perfume Ring. $40
Cause a stir on the red carpet with this one-of-a-kind cocktail ring. A solid perfume is discreetly concealed beneath the dazzling pink bauble. Perfect for touch-ups in the limo.

I don't know about anyone else, but I really want one of the pens! It's pink AND is has scented ink! Ridiculous, but how fun would it be to whip it out?

To compliment this fragrance launch, Michael Kors also launched the VeryHollywood.com website, which has a ton of really cool features. First, enter the Hollywood Correspondents Contest, where you will receive a trip to a red carpet event where you will report on your experience via video and Twitter.

The Starring You application is a super fun thing where you upload your own photos and create a tabloid-like layout that you can share on Facebook or email. Michael's Faves is updated every month with Michael's beauty tips, and the latest popular accessories. Also on the site is The Campaign, which gives you an in-depth look into the making of Very Hollywood and all those who were involved.

And as a special bonus, I'll let you in on a little secret: if you visit the website soon and click around, you'll find that you can download Lady Gaga's The Fame for free. Enjoy! I'm off to buy a scented pen.

With Love, Michael Kors Set


I love Michael Kors. Seriously, I just adore everything he does, from his jeans to his fragrance. I've posted about his Very Pretty fragrance before, and now he's got even more coming out for me to get all excited about.

This set has three different fragrances: Very Pretty, which is described as "sparkling citrus and drenched coconut with sheer white florals, vetiver and sandalwood; Eau de Parfum, the iconic tuberose balanced with spices, sensual woods and incense; Eau de Toilette, a lighter and softer way to wear the Eau de Parfum.

The best part? They come in a set of rollerballs! I love rollerballs for travel - they are compact and fit just about anywhere, unlike a larger bottle. The box is lovely, and would make an excellent Valentine's Day gift. Retails for about $40.

Holiday Gift Idea: Michael Kors Very Pretty

All this talk about Tom Ford has made me almost forget my main squeeze, Michael Kors. I do love me some Michael - he consistently makes fashion accessible to many, and his fragrances are among my favorites.

One that I haven't tried yet, although I'm dying to, is Michael Kors Very Pretty. Although the name sounds like something I'd find at my local Victoria's Secret, the description sounds wonderful.

Intense sparkling citrus drenched coconut meshed with sheer white florals add a touch of femininity. Sensual vetiver and lush sandalwood create a sophisticated balance, resulting in an indulgent floral interpretation of the original Michael Kors fragrance. Housed in a luxurious, sparkling bottle, this new fragrance is all dressed up for the holidays.

Every time I spritz on a Michael Kors fragrance, I always want to head to a beach somewhere. They just have that effect on me, but this one seems a bit more complex.

Very Michael Kors


My obsession with all things Michael Kors is well known. So, imagine my surprise when BellaSugar informed me today that MK was releasing a new perfume: Very Michael Kors. It features notes of Provence tuberose, citrus fruits, black plum, Chinese osmanthus and sugar cane. I love the tuberose scent of the originial Michael Kors, but this seems like it might add an element of the exotic to the sweet nature of the original. I can't wait to try it. I've been needing an excuse to visit the MK store in Williamsburg anyway.

Who Loves Michael Kors? I do!


Just look at these! I love them. And right now, the bestest store ever, Nordstrom, has marked them down. I've been stalking these shoes for quite some time after I saw them once and thought that they would bring a certain something to my shoe wardrobe. And now...now they will be mine! If you don't like this color, don't fret - there are three more. Black, green, and gold are also marked down to a surprising $63.90. Go check them out at Nordstrom.
