Filed under: Health & Beauty, Shopping — Ivy Schnepp @ 11:59 am

Good news for those of us dying to try the new David Babaii for Wildaid line!  I have been told that the product line should be available for purchase this coming week, the week of 4/20/2008, on the David Babaii for Wildaid website.  Also, the line should be available for purchase in stores, like Target and Ulta, in June of 2008.

 
 

David Babaii for Wildaid April 13, 2008

Filed under: Health & Beauty — Ivy Schnepp @ 9:01 pm

David Babaii is not only a super talented hair stylist with a celebrity following that rivals the Rachel Zoe’s and Gucci Westman’s of the world, he also has incredible passion for interests outside of hair and fashion. Babaii has developed (with the assistance of Kate Hudson) a cruelty free hair product line, David Babaii for Wildaid, that donates 10% to Wildaid, a global wildlife conservation organization. Unfortunately, those of us eagerly awaiting the arrival of this line, will have to wait just a little longer. Word is that the official product line launch is scheduled for “May/June 2008″ but is sounds a little flexible to me.

Model Monday - Margaryta Senchylo March 30, 2008

Filed under: Fashion — Ivy Schnepp @ 7:30 pm

Margaryta Senchylo is easy on the eyes but so hard on the mouth.  There is something vaguely reminiscent of Esther Canadas when gazing at this 17 year old Ukranian.  She is clearly an up and comer with a bright future on plenty of future catwalks.

Model Monday- Toni Garrn March 23, 2008

Filed under: Fashion — Ivy Schnepp @ 8:31 pm

Just two short years ago, Toni Garrn arrived on the modeling scene and in those two shorts years, this Hamburg native has managed to land in editorials for Elle, Italian Elle, Glamour, V and W. But, the most impressive feat for this relative newcomer is that she has been selected as the face of Calvin Klein Collection, replacing the beautiful and uber successful Natalia Vodianova. Talk about big shoes to fill! She walked exclusively for Calvin Klein this past Fashion Week (Fall 2008), meaning Mr. Klein must be making it worth her while to pass up, what one would imagine to be, a long list of designers offering her a spot on their catwalks. The new Calvin Klein print ads. featuring Toni, are superfluously graceful and they exude the clean lines and simplicity that has made the designer world renowned.

The Ultimate Driving Machine March 9, 2008

Filed under: Cars — Ivy Schnepp @ 3:07 pm

The 2008 750i truly lives up to the BMW tagline, The Ultimate Driving Machine. With a powerful 360 horse power V8 engine, this luxury sedan provides both a source of vigor and embodies the epitome of luxury. It is one of the only sedans on the market in which it is just as comfortable to ride in the backseat as it is to sit in one of the front seats. The options for upgrading this already sumptuousness auto are endless. Visit BMW USA to design your own version of this dream like sedan.

Friday Model Monday - Biana Balti February 28, 2008

Filed under: Fashion — Ivy Schnepp @ 6:36 pm

Oh, my…Miss Biana, you are a Beauty! Balti was born in Italy in 1984. Shockingly, she was rejected by Elite before making it with another agency. (Yet another Stunner that goes to show you, you can’t go by what by one person or one group of people think of you. So take note, all you aspiring models, keep your head up!!) Balti’s stunning blue eyes are made even more striking by her contrasting dark features. She has the look of an exotic model but she is still incredibly versatile. She seems to have hit her peak around 2005 with Dolce & Gabbana and Missoni print ads, although she made several appearances on the runway during fashion week for Diesel and Miss Sixty.

Filed under: Fashion, Shopping — Ivy Schnepp @ 7:01 pm

Commerce has evolved to the point where consumers are constantly bombarded by options. The next logical progression is customization or personalization. We might not want to manufacturer the actual item but we do want to color it, paint it, de-constructed it, construct it…You get the idea, the options are limitless. This new dimension of the marketplace has affected companies ranging from Fendi to Starbucks. The most stylish of the customization trend is the Fendi Artist Baguette. This chic canvas comes with Pantone Markers so you can create your own version of what the Fendi bag should look like.
