This is a vintage silk with white and navy diamond pattern accented with rust circles. The headband for is only 1/4″ within a channeled pocket that measures around 1 3/4″ wide. The tails are 18″ long.

The advantage of a skinnier headband in a wide fabric pocket allows for a lot of comfort. The plastic headband form doesn’t ache at your head after many hours of wear.

Simply tie the tails around your ponytail, or at the nape of your neck under your hair letting the tails show at the bottom.

The inner plastic headband form is 1” wide, and the fabric casing makes it a total of 1 5/8” wide. This feels nice and solid on your head, giving you that great feeling of “pulling your hair back”! It can get a bit tight in a long day, until you get it more trained to your head.

This fabric is vintage men’s handkerchief fabric. The headband itself is about 15” inches, with the tails 17”-18” long. They are great to tie around your ponytail or at the nape of your neck, allowing the tails to show at the bottom of your hair.

The design is a sage green,yellow, and white oval pattern on a cranberry background.

I love going to Sephora - I also don’t quite understand how running in to get Dior’s mascara will inevitably turn into a $200 purchase; however, great products mean that we must have a great way of carrying it. For me, nothing can just have a practical purpose - there has to be a bit of pop. In terms of pop, I love the fact that after a recent visit to Etsy (yes it is becoming one of my favorite sites so I will make sure that you guys will definitely take a peek to see the level of style and creativity that is comign from there), I came across Chicago designer, Haley Handmade. I love that this makeup pouch uses upholstery (love this - I have a coat that uses this fabric and I love the rich tones that come out in this coat) and there is a magnetic closure which is always a nice touch. Haley doesn’t survive on makeup pouches alone, you’ll see her flare in eye pillows, hair bands and satchels. I love that her items are handmade and that she is a midwest girl as well! Take some time to visit this crafty lady and of course to see other fab designers.

I love this designer cosmetic cases, you can find on the internet grate  replica cosmetic cases bags collection

It can be a challenge to see instantaneous skin improvement via an at home treatment. But I was pleasantly surprised after testing Philosophy’s Oxygen Peel this week. It’s the perfect treatment for Spa at Home Sunday!

The Oxygen Peel consists of 10 enzyme tablets and an oxygen cream. Break open one caplet (you can even use 1/2 to extend the life of the kit) and mix with warm water. Shake until the liquid becomes a light gel and apply to skin, avoiding eyebrows and the hairline. Leave the gel on the skin for just 1-3 minutes, then apply the oxygen cream, which foams up nicely when mixed. Remove with the mini plastic spatula provided for extra exfoliation.

Philosophy recommends using the Oxygen Peel weekly and prior to special events. Unlike a more invasive facial or peel, there are no nasty side effects. Just gorgeous glowing skin and tiny, barely visible pores. Love!

You would definitely love the new Marc Jacobs Lovely Luz Messenger Bag! Muddy or dark colors are typical of the spring season, and this beautiful brown designer handbag based on the messenger bag theme just stands out amongst the latest spring collections.

The smooth leather of the Marc Jacobs Lovely Luz Messenger Bag feels well on hand, even though the strange ruching in the center could raise few eyebrows. It is just like modern art; some might like it as well. The shoulder strap of this cool designer handbag is length enough, and it augurs well with the overall design and shape.

Priced at $398 USD, the Marc Jacobs Lovely Luz Messenger Bag is one of the cheapest designer handbags from the Marc Jacobs stable.

New Spring Jewelry
The classic pendant is an ultra simple look that works well with spring’s more detailed, flamboyant clothing. A pendant should complement, but not clash with, the strong colors and patterns of spring and summer fashions. Traditional gemstones and simple settings work best for this style, though design and color should not be overlooked. Simple and elegant best describe what I consider a classic pendant.

Heart-Shaped Pendants
Jewelry takes on a more traditional look for spring 2008 with the reappearance of the classic heart motif worn as a simple pendant. Although this look is always strong around Valentine’s Day, its popularity will continue throughout the spring and summer.

This is a stylized version:
