WWW: All Night Long – Smashbox Fuchsia Flash Matte Lisptick

So, usually, for our Whatcha-Wearin-Wednesdays, I stop someone on the street/in a store/at my manicure place and ask ”Whatcha Wearin’?

However, this week, I was soooo in love with this lipstick I wore yesterday that I had to share. I have been OBSESSED with fuchsia lately. On the hunt for the perfect, bold-yet-classy fuchsia. Like a fuchsia that Jackie O would wear.

Be forewarned. This brilliant blue-based pink, matte lipstick is BOLD.

Bold & Beautiful just like Ridge and Brooke on the show of the same name.

So…

Whatcha Wearin’, BF?

My fave part? This lipstick wore on and on. Lasting for my dear friend, Lindsey’s birthday soiree from here (in the car at 6:45 pm):

To here (at Midnight):

No retouching! No reapplying!

Now, THAT is beautiful.

BF Asks:  Do you have a lip color trend that you are LOOOOVING right now? 

 

Saturday Social Hour: Hometown Dallas Visit, Part 2

Last week, I detailed some of the highlights from visiting my family & friends in Dallas. Here’s what happened next on my sweet, sweet trip home.

A visit with Linda Nunez – the iconic Trish McEvoy makeup artist at Nordstrom Northpark:

BF and, iconic Trish McEvoy artist, Linda Nunez

I worked with Linda when I was a Trish McEvoy makeup artist, myself, at Neiman Marcus Northpark at the ripe age of 19! There’s a whole story about that On this visit, I was lucky enough to get a complete refresher course from Linda and I found that many of the things I learned while being a Trish customer and, later, employee are tools I still use to this day. There’ll be more on my visit and what goodies I left with later.

Another reason for my visit was that it was one of my favorite little girls, Molly Tate’s, 1st Birthday Party!

And, my last stop in Dallas? Why, Mi Cocina, again, for the 7th night!

I even strayed from my normal margarita or mambo taxi and tried a new drink:

Anybody know what this delightful concoction at Mi Cocina is called, anyway?

What a sweet weekend to wrap up a sweet trip home!
And to all of my friends and family, thank you for making it a trip home I will never forget!

BF
