The First Lady spent April 29th volunteering: She donated time filling bags with non-perishable food to be distributed at the Capitol Area Food Bank for Feeding America. An extremely worthy and commendable activity, and yet the photo has spurred a mini controversy. Why you may ask? Her fashion choices, naturally.

At first glance, there is nothing exceptional about her casual capri-and-sneaker combo, but upon closer inspection, it's obvious that these are no average kicks. Mrs. O rocked a pair of $540 Lanvin sneakers to the food bank.

Michelle Obama has previously been praised for her ability to mix high and low fashion, but are there limits to her mixology? Sure, the trendy low tops add a dash of flash to an otherwise dull ensemble, but one could also argue that the pricey footwear was inappropriate for the occasion. Vote in the poll below to let us know what you think about the First Lady's lasted fashion statement

View Poll



Style Evolution: Michelle Obama

    This one-shoulder gown by Jason Wu was seen around the world. Proving her fashionable prowess, the newly-appointed First Lady boldly chose a dress by the relatively unknown designer. Knowing what works for her body, she eschewed anything too dowdy or cleavage-baring and instead focused on her favorite asset - toned arms.

    Many a critic found Obama's Junya Watanabe cardigan rather unsettling. The controversial piece, worn over a teal full-skirted Jason Wu dress, should get points for blending brown and blue if nothing else. At least her clothes fit better than poor Sarah Brown's, wife of the British Prime Minister.

    While we're the first to embrace Mrs. O's style, we must admit that these clothes look like they spent too much time in the dryer. In comparison to the buttoned up Dr. Jill Biden, Obama's ensemble is more play school than preppy. Clearly, the argyle detail on a sweater is a recurring favorite.

    While walking through a the White House rose garden on April 28th, Obama showed her love for a new designer, Sophie Theallet, in a full-skirted 1950s-inspired day dress. WWD reported that the First Lady was introduced to Theallet's clothing vis-a-vis her personal style consultant Ikram Goldman, and not Azzedine Alaia, for whom she used to work.

    Another day, another argyle cardigan by Junya Wantanabe. We don't think that kids would mind as much as we do this particular ensemble. Love the colors but, in the words of Tim Gunn, "make it work!" The belt has an awkward placement and the shirt bunches in all the wrong places.

    Tim Sloan, AFP / Getty Images

    For her visit with Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace, Michelle Obama wore a black-and-white Isabel Toledo dress, an Azzedine Alaia cardigan, and pearls. Some thought the cardigan was not formal enough.

    The Obama's first Easter egg roll on the White House lawn drew a record crowd. For the casual affair, mama Obama looked ready for spring in cropped light blue pants and a kelly green top with a sensible navy jacket.

    Stepping out for church services with the President on Easter Sunday, Mrs. Obama wore a pretty floral frock from Peter Soronen accentuated with her go-to accessory, a double strand of pearls.

    The First Lady debuted her spring wardrobe at the G20 Summit in London, pairing classic styles with light, airy brights. In Germany, Mrs. Obama wore a custom Thakoon floral silk jacquard dress with black kitten heels.

Just in case you needed an inspiration to get ready for swimsuit weather: See Jane go.

Jane Fonda stole the show at the Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS 23rd Annual Easter Bonnet Competition in New York this week, throwing off a fur coat to reveal red and black exercise togs. We're talking real exercise wear -- not yoga pants and a baggy T-shirt, but a leotard and tights. She then led a mini-workout that showed age 71 can still look amazing.



Back in the 1980s, Fonda's workout videos sold millions of copies and women around the nation copied her high-cut bodysuits and spandex legging-looks.

She also always knew how to work a belt -- a great technique still for quickly "shedding" a few pounds no matter your age.

Fonda reports on her blog that she had a blast doing the show, and helping her team from "33 Variations" raise close to $200,000 for charity.

How does she do it? She reports a nap before the show was a good call.

If she's not inspiration enough for how to age gracefully, check out the photos in this gallery of sexy women in their 60s.

Sexy Stars in their 60s

    Helen Mirren has played a royal so often that she could probably take over for a real one, but she apparently hasn't got a bit of the Queen's stuffiness. The Academy Award-winner has been everyone from a naked housewife (in "Calendar Girls") to a tough-as-nails detective (in "Prime Suspect"), and even at 63, is confident enough to walk the red carpet in this figure-hugging white dress at the premiere of her new film "State of Play".

    Don't call her granny, gray-haired or anything that even hints that she's something less than fab. At 69, Tina Turner still has a great growl, glorious gams and gyrations that could kill. And the singer, who shimmered (and shimmied) in gold leggings and matching Christian Louboutin heels during her 50th Anniversary tour stop in London, is not alone. Click on for more stars who just keep on rollin' well into their 60s.

    Vacationing with her husband on Saint Barths, 62-year-old Soap star Susan Lucci showed off her fabulous bod in this itsy-bitsy green bikini.
    Do you love Lucci? See her strut her stuff on the Heart Truth catwalk.

    The one and only Grace Jones took to the stage at Camden's Roundhouse in London and wowed the crowd with both her performance and her physique! Now 60 years old, the former model and Andy Warhol muse still has to-die-for legs and a sense of style all her own.

    Once the princess of punk, Debbie Harry, at 63, is now the embodiment of Baby Boom chic. Of course, no matter how (um) old she gets, the Blondie front-woman will still rock out and will never give up her signature yellow mane.

    Taking a dip during her Hawaiian vacation, Goldie Hawn looked sexy and much younger than her 63 years.

    It's hard to say if Mia Farrow is better known as an actress (everything from "Rosemary's Baby" to a baker's dozen Woody Allen films) or her spectacular romances (marriages to Frank Sinatra and Andre Previn, and a fabulously sordid split with Allen). Still, at 63, the single mother-of-14 shown at Hong Kong International Airport is so burrowed in humanitarian work as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and an activist against the genocide in Darfur, that Time named her one of 2008's 100 most influential people.

    Andrew Ross , AFP/Getty Images

    The most successful female recording artist ever, 18 No. 1 hits in the U.S. and 70 Top-10 hits since 1964, 64-year-old Diana Ross is still supremely cool. In 2007, she had the finalists on "American Idol" rocking her songs. In 2008, she not only captured a BET Lifetime Achievement Award presented by her five kids and Stevie Wonder but she also headlined at Radio City Music Hall in "Divas with Heart."

    Larry Marano, Getty Images

    She was immortalized as the delicately beautiful Lara in the 1965 romance, "Dr. Zhivago," and in the nearly 45 years since, Julie Christie pictured here at the 2008 Academy Awards -- has clearly lost none of her allure. The It-girl of her generation, she's kept a lower profile in recent years, making only a handful of movies. She returned to the spotlight in 2005's "Away From Her," winning raves for her haunting portrait of a woman lost to Alzheimers, and in 2007, at 66, marrying for the first time.

Burlesque diva Dita Von Teese spends most of her professional life in little lacy bits of nearly nothing, so it should come as no surprise that she is the designer and face of Wonderbra's line, The Science of Sexy. These racy shots promote the second collection Von Teese has designed for the lingerie giant. Her first line stuck to gorgeous basics but with her second collection she has moved beyond bras and panties to designing more elaborate undergarments. Check out the gallery below to see more saucy shots of Von Teese's and other smokin' hot celebrity ads.

One look at the trailers for the new movie "Obsessed," starring Ali Larter as an office siren turned psycho stalker, and it's pretty clear the title is accurate. But the real-life Larter also was obsessed in the best kind of way -- she wanted her character's look to be absolutely perfect, right down to her underwear, says costume designer Maya Lieberman.


In one of the movie's hotter scenes, Larter's Lisa Sheridan surprises the object of her desire, played by Idris Elba, with the old nothing-but-silk-and-lace under the coat trick. Lieberman says Larter came up with the idea for the vintage inspired ensemble herself.

"The lingerie was 100% Ali's idea," Lieberman said. "She wanted to avoid anything stripper inspired because she felt strongly that her character would pick something high fashion and sophisticated."

Lieberman used two pieces from different sets and dyed them to match.

The final look? Classy, sexy and surprisingly demure. A nice change, no doubt, for an actress who first made headlines wearing nothing but a whipped cream bikini in 1999's "Varsity Blues."

Feeling fashion obsessed yourself? Head over to BlackVoices to enter their "Obsessed" sweepstakes. Grand prize is a a $1,375 Hermes "Garden Party" tote and a $1,000 spa package. Can you get any more obsession worthy?

And after the jump, more on how Lieberman created Larter's look and that of Beyoncé Knowles, who plays the woman wronged.

A well placed belt looks effortless and elevates any outfit, but picking the right one for your look and body type isn't as easy as it seems. A skinny waist cincher can get lost on fuller frames, wider cuts can overwhelm petite figures, and matching colors can be difficult if you aren't used to accessorizing. To make sure your purchase is appropriate take into account these simple guidelines:

1. Follow the First Lady's lead and invest in a high quality belt that can be paired with multiple outfits. You don't have to drop as much dough as Mrs O. did for her Azzedine Alaia studded number, but do make sure you spend enough to get a good leather that will last and age well.

2. Just like buying a suit, your first belt should be a basic. Black or brown are the safest bets depending on the overall tone of your wardrobe. Once you've learned how to work your new accessory, add a bright color or statement buckle to your collection for more fashion-forward looks.

3. The most versatile option is a belt that has enough holes to fit on both your hips and your waist but this isn't always possible. If you have to pick between the two, this season go for the waist. This position is figure flattering and can be paired with both dresses and pants.

A rumor-plagued newlywed is nothing special in Hollywood. Many blushing brides fall victim to the standard is-she-or-isn't she pregnant, or are-they-or-aren't-they-happy variety, but the whispers about Fergie are unique. The buzz around Josh Duhamel's new Mrs. is that she's losing her hair. This recent shot of Fergalicious shows the singer with an unusually wide part and what looks like it could be the beginning of a bald patch at the crown of her head. The former Black Eyed Pea isn't in need of a wig quite yet, the problem does seem to be getting worse since she went brunette. While there are many possible reasons for Fergie's increased scalp exposure (too many dye jobs, extensions, genetics) Nunzio Saviano, senior stylist at Oscar Blandi, told Star magazine that "it mainly happens because of stress and dieting." As if brides to be didn't have enough to worry about, now fitting into your dress could cause you to lose your hair!

For a look at a fuller-locked Fergie, and the other brunette beauties in Hollywood, check out the gallery below.

What's the hottest thing to wear if you were one of the world's biggest models in the 90s? Apparently a purple bikini. First 40-year-old Helena Christensen hit the beach in a lavender shade (see the gallery below), and then 43-year-old Cindy Crawford showed off her killer figure in this plum purple suit.

If Crawford's latest shoot for Allure left you wondering (or hoping!) about the role of Photoshop in creating her to-die-for figure, these latest shots confirm the mom of two doesn't need any help from the art department. Not that she's totally perfect mind you. "I think I look pretty good for 43. But I don't look the way I did when I was 23," she told Allure. "So if Star magazine or whatever wants to print a picture of me on the beach from the back, at the worst possible angle, and say that I have cellulite, I'm like, guess what? I do, and I never said I didn't." We'll have to take her word on that because we checked a lot of angles and couldn't find any proof!

]]>phebe hunnicuttphebehunnicuttspring fashionSpringFashionstars in bikinisStarsInBikinisPhebe HunnicuttSat, 11 Apr 2009 09:00:00 ESTGaga Over Lady GaGahttp://www.stylelist.com/2009/04/07/gaga-over-lady-gaga/http://www.stylelist.com/2009/04/07/gaga-over-lady-gaga/http://www.stylelist.com/2009/04/07/gaga-over-lady-gaga/#commentsFiled under: ,

With two consecutive number 1 hits and an eye catching personal style, Lady GaGa has become both a pop darling and a fashion muse. The singer herself sees it as all part of the same package, swearing to MTV that when she's writing her music she's thinking about what clothes to wear on stage. "Fashion is everything ... I want the imagery to be so strong that fans will want to eat and taste and lick every part of us."

While we haven't seen any cannibalistic fan activity, StyleList's has certainly noticed that Hollywood has started looking a little more like GaGa everyday. But who is really the copycat?

Back in 2008 when Christina Aguilera made her post-baby red carpet return at the MTV VMAs, a small but vocal chorus of pop savvy critics noticed that her new look was not exactly her own. Xtina's GaGa ripoff seemed like a one off, but in the months since then it's become clear that Aguilera is gaga over Lady GaGa and she's certainly not alone.

View Poll



Everyone from the formerly "Dirrty" singer to Nicole Richie have turned to Lady GaGa to inspire their new looks, but that hardly means the Lady herself is 100% original. GaGa's style collective "Haus of GaGa" is charged with developing the singer's look and while they have managed to put their own spin on each ensemble they haven't actually created much that hasn't been done before. Check out the gallery below to see where GaGa gets her fashion moves and who's taking their cues from the Lady of the moment.



Gaga Over Lady GaGa

    According to GaGa she and Gwen Stefani have nothing in common beyond their hair color, but we see it a little differently. Musically the two aren't a match, but it's hard to deny GaGa borrows from Ms Stefani's style.

    WENN

    GaGa is not the first nor will she be the last to pay tribute to Madonna's legendary style but she's certainly more committed to bringing back the cone bra than any of Madge's other admirers.

    Jakubaszek, Getty Images

    There is no one Lady GaGa references more than Grace Jones. In fact, if Lady GaGa is doing it chances are Grace Jones did it bigger and badder before Ms. GaGa was even out of diapers.

    Scott Legato, FilmMagic

    From the hoods, to her love of wearing undies instead of pants, Lady GaGa clearly adores the Aussie poptart Kylie Minogue's style.

    Jamie McCarthy, WireImage

    The 2001 VMA weren't a high style point for Britney Spears but that didn't stop GaGa from following in the Princess of Pop's style footsteps.

    PEX/BuzzFoto/FilmMagic

    Nicole Richie knows a thing or two about what it's like to have half of Hollywood rip off your style. The expectant mom poses as Tinseltown's latest muse on the cover of BlackBook.

    BlackBook

    One part No Doubt era Gwen Stefani, one part MIA, a dash of Blondie and suddenly Richie is 100% GaGa.

    BlackBook

    Paris Hilton's "anything Nicole can do I can do better" attitude struck again during a recent photo shoot in which the heiress channeled GaGa.

    X17online.com

    The saucy singer inspires Paris in her latex bra top and pencil skirt.

    WENN

    Christina Aguilera used to borrow her style from the classic pinup girls of the 1940s but since Lady GaGa came on the scene the singer has left the decade behind. This pants-less ensemble is her most recent copycat, her first was at the MTV Music Awards in 2008.

We told you about Heidi Klum's fab new makeup kit on Friday,
but what we didn't mention is that we were actually there with the supermodel when she revealed her Oscars look. We got the skinny from Heidi, and her makeup artist Linda Hay, on the inspiration behind the Spring Look Makeup Collection, how they dream up red carpet looks, and the duo's best kept beauty secrets.

Not surprisingly, it all starts with the dress! "I asked Roland Mouret to design my dress this year because he is so about a woman's body. I just love the way he cuts. It's sexy without showing off everything" says Klum. "Once Heidi picks the dress that's when I start thinking about the rest of the story" explains Hay. "It's never really finalized until the day-of. We're all Geminis so we are always getting new ideas and changing our minds!"

Once the makeup is done there's the challenge of how to keep it looking fresh all night, which is where the kit comes in. "The purses are beautiful and glamorous but they are are getting smaller and smaller, you don't have anywhere to put anything!" says Klum. Hay's solution's clever but always a scramble to get together. "I have never found a truly small compact so I usually give her powder scraped off and wrapped in a tissue with a mini brush, blotting papers because it gets hot on the red carpet. If her bag is big enough I will stick in a lip gloss as well" With her expert team their to support her you'd think Klum would have no complaints about Oscar night, but as it turns out there's one thing she doesn't like, "There's never any food there, by the end I'm always straving!"

OK enough about the glamorous red carpet life of a supermodel, what about the rest of us gals? Here are Heidi and Linda's Top 5 tips for looking red carpet ready.

1. Give your skin a day off. "On a day off I do nothing!" says Heidi. "If I am going out with my husband maybe a tiny bit of lip gloss or mascara, but I try to let the skin breathe.
2. For a beautiful 5-minute face Linda Hay says "Mascara, lip gloss, bronzer and you're good to go. But don't use the bronzer as a contour it's too harsh. Instead apply it anywhere the sun would touch your face." (In case you have forgotten over the winter that means your cheekbones, temples and the bridge of your nose)
3. To make your eyes look larger Heidi says "Don't do dark eyeliner inside your eyes it makes them look smaller. If you go underneath the lashes and put a lighter liner on the inside it makes them look much bigger."
4. Heidi anti-aging secret? A product she spent 2 1/2 years creating herself, natch! "I love In An Instant, it's how I take care of my skin."
5. "Putting a highlighter in the inside corners of your eyes and under your brows really helps" says Klum. "Even if it's just photos with your friends at dinner, if you do that, your face will pop"

SHOW: Richie Rich
MAKEUP: Kabuki for M.A.C
HAIR: Jeanie Syfu for TRESemme
BEAUTY SNAPSHOT: Marylin Monroe meets Edie Sedgwick


THE SCOOP:
The season marked the return of a Richie Rich designed collection to NY Fashion Week, but the fashion darling was not back as one half of Heatherette. He was instead presenting a solo collection. While the clothes were noticeably more wearable than his Heatherette fantasy pieces, the hair and makeup stayed true to his previous label's sense of fun. As hairstylist Jeanie Sayfu explained "the inspiration was about Marylin Monroe and Marie Antoinette and how they became more refined as they got older. The show is going to be telling the story of a cool punk rock chick growing up and become a polished woman." For the punk side Sayfu created a cornrow-sided faux mohawk and for the refined women a full-bodied curl set. To recreate the curled look on your own Sayfu says "Teasing is a really cool technique to add volume to any curl set. For a less dramatic result, don't tease it all the way to the end, but tease it at the root before you set the curl. The heat actually activates the tease so you get this really pretty full set of curls as you brush it out."

The makeup team took their inspiration from the imagined meeting of two beauty icons, Marylin Monroe and Edie Sedgwick. The result is a look that's big and bold but also playful "almost like the two of them did each other's makeup" explained the M.A.C lead artist. To take the look off the runway the M.A.C team suggests you "only line the bottom of the eye and then do a strong brow. Anyone with that hard pulled down smoky eye automatically has a bit of attitude in their look. To get a smoky bottom eye use a soft eyeliner and then a fine brush to smudge it and smoke it out."

SHOW: Matthew Williamson
MAKEUP: Charlotte Tilbury for M.A.C
HAIR: Paul Hanlon for GHD
BEAUTY SNAPSHOT: Graphic minimalism and 90s chic
THE SCOOP: Matthew Williamson is known for his boho inspired runways, but this time around the designer wanted a whole new look. Hairstylist Paul Hanlon explained "We wanted to reference the early 90s, like the photos Steven Klein used to take for Vogue. It's all very graphic and minimal. Normally Matthew's girls are a bit boho and this season he wanted them to be the opposite. Much more finished, harder and more graphic." To get that feel they used a ton of hairspray at the roots and brushed the hair very smooth. "The result is almost like when a woman comes up out of the water." Makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury also followed the 90s theme creating a blended gray eye and a red-ish brown lip. "Everything is matte and there's a lot of blending. We are using lip liner which is seen as very 90s but I think everyone should use it. Liner evens out the lip and gives you the perfect pout."

SHOW: Badgley Mischka
MAKEUP: Tom Pecheux for M.A.C
HAIR: Peter Gray for Redken
BEAUTY SNAPSHOT: Elegant and Chic


THE SCOOP:
Tom Pecheux inspiration came straight from the brand, "it really is about the Badgley Mischka woman. When you see a Badgley Mischka dress you just know, you don't have to see the tag. The woman should be the same." With that in mind he created a cocktail look for a young woman "who loves luxury and beauty, who is elegant and sophisticated, but isn't flashy." To start, create a matte finish skin and then cover the eyelid in a deep blue shimmery shade of eyeshadow. Next lightly dusk a gold shadow across the lid and under the eye. Then apply mascara to the top lashed leaving the bottom plain. Finally a subtle dusk of rose on the cheek bones and a lavender lip gloss rounds out the makeup.

The theme for the show? "Badgley Mischka meets Blade Runner, at least for me," said hairstylist Peter Gray. "What I tried to do was add a bit of a futuristic flare to this traditional red carpet brand." The look is actually rather easy to do, put the shaper (basically a doughnut shaped brillo pad) around your hair and then slide it to the tip, then simply roll up and pin. Once the hair is in position apply a generous amount to hairspray to help it stay put. While the shape is simple Gray cautions it shouldn't been done with clean hair. "When you wash your hair it is very slippery. To really make this work let it get a bit dirty so it grips."

SHOW: Cynthia Steffe
MAKEUP: Christian McCulloch for M.A.C
HAIR: Rolando Beauchamp for Bumble and Bumble
BEAUTY SNAPSHOT: Rock 'n Roll
THE SCOOP:
Designer Shawn Kearny describes his new collection as "uptown chic meets downtown cool, tough and chic at the same time." To match that tone, hairstylist Rolando Beauchamp decided to go with a rock 'n roll inspired 'do. "The collection is really beautiful so we decided to do something a little rougher and not as neat to create a nice balance with the clothes." To give your own look a rock 'n roll twist simply pull your hair up into a high ponytail using just your hands and then give the hair a little tease. Next wrap it into an oval shaped bun and pin.

On to the makeup! M.A.C artist Christian McCulloch's look is a classic combination of a smoky eye and a red lip. For this variation use smudge slate colored liner and apply a single coat of mascara. For the lip he says "blend in a pencil but don't fully line the lips and then fill them in with a deep burgundy lipstick."

SHOW: Tracy Reese
MAKEUP: Charlotte Willer for Maybelline New York
HAIR: Erin Anderson for TRESemme
BEAUTY SNAPSHOT: Understated glamour


THE SCOOP: Both the hair and makeup artist simply chatted to the designer to create the beauty look for Tracy Reese. "We made up a girl in our heads, it's fantasy, who is this girl, what is she doing, what does she look like?" explains hairstylist Erin Anderson. The result? Soft and feminine makeup and a romantic tumble of curls secured with a simple barrette at the base of the neck. For her part, lead makeup artist Charlotte Willer explained "Tracy wanted to have a fresh look with an understated elegance. To show that we created a strong eyebrow, soft brown eyes, a pink cheek and nude-ish lip." To recreate this girly glow curl your lashes and apply a generous amount of mascara and then work on the lip and the brow. Willer says you should dab on the lipstick like it was a stain instead of applying it directly from the tube. To get the brows right "start with a pencil and then afterword use a brush to blend. If you really want them to settle in, use a brush to swipe a powder across the brow." As for the luscious tumble of curls, hairstylist Erin Anderson says it is an "easy style. There is no brushing involved, the only precision is the straight middle parting. Otherwise it's rough dried with your hands to increase body and texture. It's curled with a curling iron in random sections, it's not uniform at all."

SHOW: Thuy
MAKEUP: Romero Jennings for M.A.C
HAIR: Allen Ruiz for Avon
BEAUTY SNAPSHOT: It's all about the eyes
THE SCOOP:
To create the look for the show makeup artist Romero Jennings worked closely with designer Thuy and stuck to her focus on organic shapes and clean lines. "To play off the clean lines we decided to do a strong bold eyeliner but instead of doing a normal shape we decided to do something squared off so it's quiet strong and graphic." The eyes are the star of this look so to complete the makeup Jennings did a simple sculpted cheek and a neutral mouth. The result is fresh and accessible. "Anybody could do this themselves and it's almost like you're messing up your liner because you're not doing a point so it's easy to clean up. To get the cheek right, smile so you can see where the apple forms. Notice where the point is and then relax your face. Start applying at the point and blend out."

To emulate the chic updo at home hairstylist Allen Ruiz says the key is prepping and texturizing the hair. "You want to have the hair well treated so it isn't slipping as you shape and pin. Once you have prepped, form a side ponytail and then roll it up pinning as you go." For longer hair Ruiz suggests twisting and pinning pieces to create the right length of loose strands.

SHOW: threeASFOUR
MAKEUP: Gordon Espinet for M.A.C
BEAUTY SHAPSHOOT: Otherworldly and hyper modern
THE SCOOP: As lead makeup artist Gordon Espinet explains threeASFOUR is "not about looking pretty or glamorous it's really more about embracing the cool factor." Focusing on that aesthetic resulted in makeup that's very modern and almost futuristic. "Rather than doing makeup, it was about creating a lighting effect, an other worldly effect of lighting." No mascara, no liquid eyeliner, no brow pencil, creating this look is all about highlighter and adding color with out adding red. "The collection is black white and gray, so the idea is everything not red. When I think futuristic it's not about being rosy or red, it is really about almost being beige."

GET THE LOOK: M.A.C Cream Colour Base in Pearl, Tinted Lip Conditioner in Soothing Beige, M.A.C Pro Sculpting Powder

SHOW: Reem Acra
MAKEUP: Polly Osmond for M.A.C
HAIR: Bumble and Bumble
BEAUTY SNAPSHOOT: Soft, glossy, goddess inspired.



THE SCOOP: The look at this red carpet favorite was, not surprisingly, red carpet ready. As lead makeup artist Polly Osmond said "The clothes are very elegant so we wanted to do a makeup look that was young to give it balance. It's goddess inspired but still very muted and soft in all dusky tones." To execute her vision, Osmond applied a taupe eyeshadow mixed with a cream color base in a slightly darker brown to give the eye depth and then a swiped gloss across the arch of the eye. On the face, Osmond applied a highlighter to the cheek and then a dab of gloss on the upper cheekbone. To finish off, concealer was applied to the lips to take down their color and then layered with a neutral shade of lipstick. To wear this off the runway Osmond says to remember "it's about using everything minimally and matting down the t-zone so you don't look shiny in the wrong places."

As for the lovely side swept hair, the experts with Bumble and Bumble said the look was created because the designer wanted something "finished and polished. What we're doing is very sophisticated and very red carpet but the low part gives it a modernity and frames the face in a graphic way." To get the look start by creating the side part while the hair is damp and then apply styling lotion before drying it flat. Next smooth the hair into a side ponytail. Instead of a twist the stylist suggests you create a loose braid and then pin it up. "It's much easier to shape and control a braid instead of a twist when you are working on your own hair and the results are very similar."

SHOW: Barbie
MAKEUP: Sarah Lucero for Stila
HAIR: Orlando Pita for T3
BEAUTY SNAPSHOT: Barbie! Fun, fresh, and feminine.

THE SCOOP:
The 50 models that took to the runway as part of the Barbie show depicted the iconic doll in the past, present, and future. Ranging from the fantastical to the easily wearable, each gorgeous look captured Barbie's glamorous femininity, but that was about all they had in common! As makeup artist Sarah Lucero explained "Barbie of the past was taken from the original 1959 Barbie doll. She has a really plastic thick lash, so when you blink it isn't even separated, with big sculpted eyeliner. The lip is red glossy lacquer finished off with Stila's Strawberry Lip Glaze. Barbie of the present's really glowy skin and pink colors can can come straight off the runway, it's fun, fresh and very wearable. Barbie of the future is bright and colorful, it's a masquerade look. It's exaggerated but to take it down you can literally use eyeliner pencils and shadows in the same pinks, teals and purples." As for the hair: "We did Barbie by the decades," said stylist Orlando Pita. "Barbie isn't really a little girl, she's a woman. We wanted to make her fun and elegant and not go to much into the draggy thing."

GET THE LOOK MAKEUP: For Barbie of the past you'll need Stila's liquid eyeliner, gobs of mascara, Dominique lipstick and Strawberry Lip Glaze. For the present pick up Stila's Illuminating Liquid Foundation, All Over Shimmer, and Giggle light pink lip vinyl when it hits stores. To get the essence of future Barbie try Glitter Eyeliner in Purple Silver, and the Starlet Pastel Palette.

GET THE LOOK HAIR: You will have to wait until September to nab it but T3's limited edition Barbie edition of their Featherweight dryer is a must have for every Barbie girl.
