My 5 Minute Summer Look

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

Hey Everyone!

So it’s been very hot out lately. I’m not a fan of wearing too much make up in the summer but I always like  to make my eyes looks fabulous!  I am loving my new Maybelline Line Stiletto liquid eyeliner. I find myself using it everyday. I feel that having the liquid liner on my top lids makes my look more polished and fancier.

In this pic (taken today), I am wearing Stila’s Kitten eye shadow, mascara & my Line Stiletto and NAR’s Cap Vert (on my cheeks) and  Pink Lemonade gloss (perfect lip gloss flavor for a hot, steamy day). It’s a fabulous look that literally took me about 5 minutes!!

This look is so classy and simple. It’s fancy enough to wear on an evening out or during the day!

The Brilliant & Beautiful Bette Davis

Monday, August 10th, 2009

So, I’m not going to write up a whole bio but I wanted to share some thoughts I had about the brilliant & beautiful Bette Davis. She had “IT”, ya know, that certain something that’s totally indescribable.

Bette Davis

This past Saturday was Bette Davis Day on TCM’s “Summer Under the Stars”. I have to admit, I am a bigger Joan Crawford fan but I must say, I really do appreciate Bette Davis’ work and I thought she was a superb actress.  “Now, Voyager”  was what really sold me on Bette Davis; it was a brilliant movie. Some of my other favorites include “Dark Victory” (ahhh…1939, the greatest year in film history), “All About Eve”, “Three on a Match” (she wasn’t the established Bette Davis at that point, but good none the less) and of course there is “What Ever Happened To Baby Jane? Even though it was Bette’s (or Joan’s) finest moment, I DO love that movie!

Last week, I watched “The Whales of August” (1987) with Bette Davis & Lillian Gish. I was so impressed that these two actresses in their 80’s could make such a moving film. Bette plays a blind woman; it was very reminiscent of her character in Dark Victory that goes blind. Oh, I was really moved by this movie.

I really admire Better for taking charge of her career. Bette thought her career was being damaged by mediocre films, the issue was taken to court and Bette thought that she would be freed from her contract with Warner Brothers. She did end up losing the case but I have a great respect for her; not too many women in the 1930’s would have stood up for themselves and their image the way Bette did.
