Winter Weather Essentials: Infinity Scarves

In this frigid winter weather you definitely need a warm cover-up and my favorite winter accessory is the infinity scarf! Infinity scarves or snoods, whatever you choose to call them are fashionable, warm and chic. The quickest way to wrap-up and go, these scarves have great versatility: they can cover the neck, head and ears, you can even create your own style by wearing as a shrug! So ditch the cold and get into winter warmth with an infinity scarf!

Ethnic Beauty is Definitely Exotic

Puerto Rican Beauty, Joan Smalls hit the model scene in 2007 signing with Elite Model Management. In 2009 she left Elite and signed with IMG. She's Modeled for some of the top designers we love, Tory Burch, Jason Wu, Givenchy, Jean Paul Gaultier and Christian Dior to name a few. She also made an appearance in Ricky Martin's "It's Alright" Video.

Seen in Cospmolitan and Vogue, this dashing beauty is definitely making a breakthrough in the industry.  This summer Joan was named the face of Gucci and now more recently Estee Lauder has appointed her the new ambassador to represent the brand's color cosmetics and skincare products. I'm sure this is only the beginning for this striking diva! Definitely looking forward to seeing her and even more ethnic beauties in the years to come!

Pantone's 2011 Colour of the Year - Honeysuckle

Since 2007, each year Pantone has named 'Color of the Year' for designer palettes. As we close 2010 we can say goodbye to Turquoise Pantone 15-5519, and say hello to Honeysuckle Pantone 18-2120 for 2011.

A vibrant reddish-pink, honeysuckle is encouraging and uplifting, a perfect pairing to start of the New Year! The Color is captivating and stimulating for an ultimate adrenaline boost. It also happens to be an eye-catching hue that works well for day and night in women's apparel, accessories and cosmetics; for men's ties, shirts and sportswear..Honeysuckle is guaranteed to produce a vivacious glow by its wearer!

I'm sure we can expect to see the color pop in everything from fashion, beauty and interiors.

So if your looking for a dynamic burst of energy, get ready to add Honeysuckle elements to your wardrobe for 2011...I'm sure all the Pink Lovers will be excited for it!

AESA

Exotic and Organic describes the Aesa Jewely Collection!

Aesa, the ancient Greek word 'Destiny', is a jewelry line that combines fantasy eras with tangible objects for inspiration. Each Piece is hand-made using Ancient Greek and Roman techniques with modernistic style. With an extreme love of the exotic, the AESA line caught my attention at Barney's and if you haven't seen this line then you need too! Fusions of fine metals and  stones give a distinct and rich aesthetic to the collection. Each piece is meant to embody a special memory for its owner...think of the jewelry as a special keepsake from your exotic journey! Wear when you're feeling edgy/exotic or when you want to make a bold statement!

Jessica Simpson Collection

If you haven't heard by now Jessica Simpson' Fashion Empire is about to break $1 Billion. Now I've only been drawn to her shoes and accessories, never really paid attention to her clothing, but after hearing the news I was compelled to checking out her line. I must say I was impressed, she has some very fashionable and classic items, so I can see why her business has been successful to date. The collection is not overly trendy and consumed with logos which I ultimate love. Fashion is about creativity and mixing up flavor, one's style should not just reflect a logo but show range with aesthetic, comfort and diversity!
