Fabulous Online Boutiques | Anique Michelle, Affordable and Stylish Fashion

I was sent a few pieces from a brand new online boutique called Anique Michelle. The site features trendy and stylish finds at an affordable price. It's hard for a fashion die hard like me to stick to a budget but everything at Anique Michelle is under 50.00. I was surprised by the high quality of the merchandise and shipping as well. Visit Anique Michelle and revamp your fall wardrobe without breaking the bank. View the boutique here. Here are a few of my favorite pieces from the store.

This rhinestone studded "In Crowd" vest is a must-have for fall. It looks great with a pair of tailored shorts as it is shown here but il work just as well with a black turtle neck or back turtleneck dress. You wil be able to carry it over into next summer. Vest, $20.00.

This dress is called 'The Sexy Secretary" it's a quite fitting name since it makes for a great work dress. If you plan to do cocktails after work just throw on a pair of dangly earrings, red ipstick and gold heels. Dress, $40.00.

The Zeno Mini: An Affordable Way to Banish Acne

Since I use makeup as wearable art, I like to fancy my skin as a canvas. Flawless skin is impossible to come by, so I try to make due with a highly calculated, medically advanced skincare regimen. However, once and awhile, there is always that stubborn pimple that magically appears at an inconvenient moment (be it a first date, or an important day at work).

That's when my Zeno comes to the rescue as a zit zapping miracle! The older models of the Zeno range around $160, which sounds steep during a recession, but at $89 the Zeno Mini is the perfect price for budget fashionistas.

This lightweight, handheld beauty device is clinically proven to make 90 percent of blemishes disappear within a 24 hour time period. FDA approved, it treats a single zit by using ClearPoint technology that uses heat to target the bacteria. Most blemishes can be treated within two to three treatments, but it is best to target the zit at an early stage using one treatment. The device is safe to use and requires no extra cleaning.

Unlike the older models of the Zeno, the Zeno Mini runs on two AAA Batteries, and the tip should be replaced after 45 uses.


My favorite part? It's portable! I've always been a girl-on-the-go and now I don't leave home without my Zeno Mini!

To find which Zeno product works best with your lifestyle, see MyZeno for more information.

Oviesse: The Italian H&M

The best times to find the greatest deals on the latest fashion pieces in Italy are in January and June when they have citywide seasonal sales. However, when your holiday takes you to Italy during a different time of year, the elevated prices might turn you away. That's why when you are in Rome, you should do what Romans do---- shop at Oviesse. For a glamourous look for an affordable price, this department store has a little something for everyone. Where else can you find Italian made heels for 15 euros or a sexy leather jacket for only 70 euros? The money you will save here will let you spend more at Prada and Gucci. You'll thank me later. Ciao!

Sula: The Scent of The Sensual Socialite

Smell is one of the most marvelous senses. Fragrance has the power to energize the body, invigorate the mind, calm tension, and even entice the opposite sex. Tired of your traditional perfumes? The Roll-On Perfume Collection by Sula Beauty offers an uplifting solution. Perfect for the girl on-the-go, the collection comes with six remarkable fragrances:

"Butterfly Kiss": a pucker of sweet pea and peony, a peck of gardenia (FLORAL)

"Stiletto Musk": a heady meld of amber, musk, and earthy florals (SPICE)

"Vanilla Blossom": sweetly blended vanilla, tonka bean and cherry blossom (SPICE)

"Blackberry Blush": the perfect sweet-tart mix, with blackberries and cassis paired with vanilla and rose (FRUIT)

"Sun-Kissed Citrus": perky slices of tangerine, lemon, orange, and grapefruit (FRUIT)

"Champagne Sugar": tiny bubbles touched with ginger and sugar cane (FRESH)"

The charming little bottles are a must-have for your makeup bag, gym locker, car, and bedside. Perfume is the ultimate confidence booster. A Glam Goddess is not complete without different fragrances in her beauty arsenal. With this collection, you can wear a new fragrance everyday depending on your mood, or you can even mix the oils to your liking. The versatility and practicality of this product is unreal.

Our favorite scent? Champagne Sugar is just divine and delicious. It is the quintessential winter scent, and will come in handy for all of the holiday parties in your social calender! Just throw it in your clutch and you will be ready to wine and dine.

Scent is greatly correlated with memory... How will you be remembered?

Beauty Product Review of the Week: E.L.F. Cosmetics

We all get a little jolt of triumph when we score a bargain. Especially when that bargain will make you not only turn heads but break necks. My new favorite drugstore find is E.L.F. Cosmetics. E.L.F. (which stands for eyes-lips- face) offers an array of makeup that leave you looking gorgeous without breaking the bank. The color palettes are expertly chosen to compliment fashion trends. So this fall while you’re prancing around in that plum satin mini dress and gold cowboy boots, dust your lids with E.L.F.’s plum palette. With so many products to choose from and at insanely low prices why not go crazy and fill up your professional Sephora make-up trunk.
Editor’s Pick:

My favorite product from E.L.F. cosmetics that I stock up on is the Hypershine gloss. I go through one tube of lip gloss in one week. So this gloss is perfect, economy wise. The formula is long lasting and won’t leave your lips feeling sticky or gooey. I finished off a mini bottle of Pellegrino with gloss intact. Now that’s a feat. The applicator is genius. It dispenses just the right amount of gloss. Hypershine gloss comes in an array of colors that compliment all skin-tones. Get glossy ladies. http://www.eyeslipsface.com/ xx MIMI
