NYFW MAKEUP: MARC JACOBS!

So for Marc Jacob's collection, he opted for a very 60s inspired look which is one of my fav looks so far.  A  banana-shaped line of shadow was applied with a brush to the crease of the lids for a very 1960s look, whilst dark liner was applied around the eyes.

Brows were heavily defined while skin and lips were of a pale/matte finish.....Great look for the runway!!!

NYFW SPRING 2013 DESIGNER OF THE DAY: BEHNAZ SARAFPOUR

Today I am featuring loved designer Behnaz Sarafpour......

She brought an ingenious mix of classic yet edgy, dipped in shades of yellow, pale pink and white leaving a somewhat angelic aura.  These feminine designs were set amid a very "Titanic" setting with the looming staircase and grand chandeliers, not forgetting the master ballroom......

Overall very simple yet bold pieces, would definitely love to get my hands on a couple....

NYFW SPRING 2013 DESIGNER OF THE DAY: ORGANIC BY JOHN PATRICK

So to kick off my series of posts on Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week Spring 2013, we're going to take a look at ORGANIC by JOHN PATRICK.....

This particular designer caught my attention because his collection reminded me a lot of our Caribbean aesthetic with its fuss-free, layer happy lineup anchored in tone-on-tone two-piece suits paired with slouchy, wide-legged line trousers, flirty, high-waisted cotton minis, and dare-to-bare shorties.  Simply gorgeous, very easy-breezy, after all it is a SPRING COLLECTION and I do think he captured that perfectly.

In his latest eco-conscious collection is inspiration came from living in a commune in the summer of 1973.  A "Hippy-haven" he called it.

HIS MESSAGE: "Its not body-conscious but, conscious of the body"
