Trend Spotlight: Turquoise Jewelry Returns To Fashion

Every few years, turquoise jewelry regains its must-have status proving to be a wise investment for your collection. Eva Mendes wore a stunning turquoise statement necklace from Van Cleef & Arpels to the Golden Globes, adding the perfect splash of color to a white dress.
From sleek and refined to rough and raw, turquoise comes in many forms, as well as a variety of price ranges for authentic or faux stones. Whether you wear yours with a t-shirt or an evening gown, here are some truly beautiful pieces ranging from $4 to almost $3,000.

MORE SEX: "Sex And The City" Stars Sign On For Sequel

LOS ANGELES — There's still sex to be had in the city, even though Carrie Bradshaw has settled down with one man.
New Line Cinema spokeswoman Candice McDonough confirms that "Sex and the City" star Sarah Jessica Parker, her three co-stars and writer-director Michael Patrick King are signed for a sequel to last year's hit movie.
The film will reunite Parker and gal pals Kim Cattrall, Kristin Davis and Cynthia Nixon.
In a statement, King says: "I'm very excited to work with these amazing actresses again and would love to give everyone more information about the sequel ... but I'm busy with my `Sex' life."

New York Gift Show

My Friend and I attended the New York Gift Show this week, what a blast. You can really get caught up in all the exhibits there and lose all sense of budget, inventory etc... I do attend it myself, but my friend asked me to go with her, just to make a fun day out of it. My Friend is an Interior Designer, who was there to extend her outreach of suppliers, which she most definitely did. Once she gets her site up, I will give you the link, so stay tuned. She has awesome taste. The type of person that throws on clothes that just create's this amazing outfit. A tremendous sense of style, which overflows in all her interior designs. I did meet a lot of interesting people, Editor and Chief of Accessories and Gift Magazine, she was great and new lines to carry in my own store that I will receiving soon. (Shh...Snapz bags: Messenger bags and backpacks, that have interchangeable and reversible accessories, that you literally build you own bag and can change it with each season creating an entirely new and different look!. When we were in their booth, they received some Big Press News, so I hope it works out for them, they were great. I also picked up a new jewelry line, Chanille of Paris: which has been around since 1966, founded in Paris. They make the most beautiful Limoge boxes and Art Deco Jewelry and started a new Silver line, which I had to have, I do love Silver..) I can't wait to get these new vendors in my store! I have been looking for a really cute versatile messenger bag, so I can't wait to receive those Snapz Bags!!

Elnett Hairspray

HAIR REPORT!!
In the States at Last!
As Reported in Janaury 2009, Lucky Mag.

Elnett Hairspray

Cosmopolitan Beauty Awards 2008 - Best Hairspray - L’Oreal Paris Elnett

I Stumbled on Elnett Hairspray about 6 years ago and in the past had to order it from Europe or Ebay. It was so frustrating, I contacted Loreal directly, Distributors in the UK, etc… So, I am Thrilled it is now in the states! Not only that but at Target!

Gotta Love Target! For $14.99, what a Great Find!
Hairstylists have been using this on the Cat Walks for years! It does smell a little like Aqua Net, but for the price and the amazing results, it is worth it! It comes in all different holds, doesn’t flake, makes your hair shiny and you can build with it (layer it) with an incredible hold to boot! If you don’t like the smell, there is an unscented version; you are going to have to search for it!

The Sundance Film Festival in Park City, UT is known as much for its gifting suites as it is for its independent films. Hollywood A-Listers go to The Fred Segal suite, where the stars shop for the latest and the greatest.

As reported by Misty Oka of UWire:

“After taking one look at Lisa Freede’s gorgeous rings, earrings (including her signature “huggie” style), bracelets and necklaces, it’s no wonder that celebs such as Angelina Jolie and Mariah Carey go gaga over her pieces. Non A-listers, however, need not fret. With prices ranging from $20 to around $200, even the cash-strapped college student can look red-carpet ready. And just when I thought that I couldn’t love Lisa more, she offered to send me the pair of earrings that I was drooling over. Swoon.”

Shop At: http://www.thatgirlboutique.com/ to get a first look at all of Lisa Freede’s Fabulous Jewels!

The Launch Of A New (And Fabulous!) Green Fashion Magazine"Coco Eco is going to bring something new and different into the mix.

There’s a reservoir of new talent out there, ready to become the next generation of trend setters. They only want to do green work, and yet they want to make a living doing what they love. Explain how you’re going to tap into that desire and make it all possible." As reported byIn The Loop : Eco fashion news and reviews brought to you by Greenloop

Confessionsof a Shopaholic

Confessions of a Shopaholic in theaters on February 13th.
Based on the books "Confessions of a Shopaholic" and "Shopaholic Takes Manhattan" by Sophie Kinsella. Rebecca Bloomwood (Isla Fisher) is a 25 year old who lives with her best friend Suze (Krysten Ritter) in Suze's flat (paying her friend rent that is well below market value), in a trendy part of town. Rebecca has a very boring job writing for a financial magazine. She has a shopping addiction and her crap job doesn't pay enough. Her bills are piling up, so she tries cutting back (complete fiasco), then she tries making more money (another fiasco). Eventually, Becky discovers a story that she is truly invested in. Exposing the story gets the attention of a colleague that she hasn't quite figured out yet. Some drama ensues as she snags the guy, and she attempts to pay off her ever-growing debt.
Can't wait to see it!

Bobbi Brown Everything Mascara

I went to my local BlueMercury Store ( A Great Place for Makeup and Skincare, they have tons of stores or you can go online: http://www.bluemercury.com/home.do. ) for my Darphin Mascara and they were out of stock. The salesperson who was so helpful, told me to try "Bobbi Brown's" Everything Mascara. Sometimes, I get a little leary when salespeople help me, I sometimes think they are pushing a certain product, But NO!!! Not this salesperson, she was ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!, it was all that and a bag of chips. I Love this mascara, it is an "All in One" formula that Lengthens, Thickens and Defines and stayed all day without smudging. I will definitely be going back and seeking her advice on new beauty products to try, she new exactly what I wanted and she was right!!LOVE IT!
