Today we’re featuring Caribbean queen Tia-Toni, who hails from my mother (and Vuitton’s) home country, the Bahamas:
She says, “I’m currently in college in Miami and I consider my style to be Tres Fabuleux! My style is simple yet daring at times :)”
Girl, I am *loving* your shoes and your youthful yet chic essence.
Work!

With Season 2 of the Rachel Zoe Project coming soon, we thought it fitting to pay homage to her uber-fab and ridiculously expensive Pathere de Cartier ring. Though we die for it, I’m sure $14,000 may be a bit too much for us recessionistas and wallet-watching stylistos!
While doing my daily shopping searches, I stumbled across a cool online store, Trashy Vintage:
Chained up Sweater, $30; Glitz & Glam Sequin Blouse, $45; White Out Floral Blouse, $25
With the mission statement, ‘One girl’s trash is another girls’ treasure,‘ the site features hot sweaters, tops, and accessories with the recessionista in mind:
Cream Puff Sweater, $20
Jean Pierre Sweater, $35; VIctoria’s Locket, $25; Houndstooth Sweater, $40
Aside from most items being under $50, the site ofers $5 flat rate shipping for all items, and free shipping for purchases over $100
If you’re tired of products with an overload of unknown ingredients and chemicals then you need to check out Pur Minerals. You can find fab items like foundation, bronzers, color for cheeks, eyes and lips and skincare products to get a dramatic or natural look.
Check out this 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Foundation. It serves as a foundation, concealer, sunscreen and finishing powder and everyone across generations can use it. How fab is that?!
Also great from Pür Minerals is their Under Control Mattifying Gel which works great for oily skin as it regulates oil production and minimizes shine.  Great for the warmer months!
Their Pressed Mineral Eyeshadows are the bomb too because you actually get the color you see when you apply it with the Mineral Eye Prep. Check out this palette with 15 different shades and it comes with a how-to little manual too. Best part: it’s only $25 bucks!
Make your pout a bit sexier with their yummy Plumping Lip Gloss. Available in over 10 shades, this gloss increases volume by up to 60%. So pucker up!
I know this all sounds amazing ladies and there is so much more I can tell you, but I want YOU to get some of these goodies for yourself! The first bombshell to tell us which British Makeup Artist began her career with fashion director Edward Enninful will win a bag full of Pur Minerals!

Hey!
So today we have a little West Coast flavor with Bombshell Latia from Seattle:
She says, “I try not to think too much about fashion because like the wonderful Yves Saint Laurent said ‘Fashion fades, Style is eternal.'”
“…I solely go with what just feels right! I’m a task administrator by day and part-time model.”
Fabulous.
