It looks like Alice in Wonderland-themed cosmetics ranges aren’t the only way the 3-D movie spectacular has infiltrated the beauty world. Dior has just released a new “augmented reality” Web site for its Miss Dior Cherie perfume to bring the popularity of three-dimensional technology to fragrance. The idea is to provide a live direct or [...]

Boudoir details have revealed themselves to be a major trend this season. It started for Fall at Balenciaga and Louis Vuitton; continued for spring at Dolce & Gabbana and Christian Dior, among many others; and has slowly but surely trickled down to mass market retailers—head to Urban Outfitters for all manner of lacy dresses, shoes, [...]

I swear by my brow groomer. Jimena and I have been together for almost three years now and I won’t let anyone else tend to my arches—except, of course, myself, when intense workloads and social obligations conflict with my ability to get to Robin Evans Skincare every three weeks. While I’m fairly confident in my [...]

I was recently in Paris for a four-day jaunt and did my best to make the most of the trip. Foie gras and fine cheeses were consumed. Euros were spent in the Marais. And I almost witnessed a Jarvis Cocker show at Bataclan, but apparently headliners go on a bit earlier in the City [...]

We’ve done our part to add to the statement lip discourse currently going on in the beauty world by making an effort to keep you abreast of the shades and products that will help you perfect your pout as vivid color continues to make a comeback. But we’re aware that more often than not, we [...]

The backstage duo of Pat McGrath and Orlando Pita always provides us with plenty of “wow” opportunities when fashion week rolls around (need we remind you of the former’s cupid’s-bow lips and the latter’s Louise Brooks-inspired bangs and bobs with bobby pin embellishments from the Dior RTW show in March?). Both artists seem to possess [...]

Couture week is upon us, and with all the pomp and circumstance on the runway and backstage comes an equally impressive front row. And so, for your viewing pleasure, Marion Cotillard doing her duty as a Dior spokeswoman, in a very fetching berry/brick red lip. (How very nineties!) Thoughts on the color choice?

In honor of today’s weather, which might just mark the conclusion of the never-ending winter of ‘08, we’re feeling a particular affinity for the new J’Adore l’Eau. A summer interpretation of the original Dior scent—which we will admit to never really liking quite as much as those J’Adore Dior T-shirts that came out around the [...]

Like every other graphic novel connoisseur/action movie buff, we trekked to the theater this weekend for the premiere of Watchmen. Despite a few sick-awesome fight sequences and one sex scene that laughed in the face of nuance, the almost three-hour feature suffered from occasional lapses into comic book movie drudgery, at which point not even [...]

Is it us, or are you also slightly over Dita Von Teese and her self-appointed title as the new bearer of burlesque? There she was, sitting front row at Dior Couture with her signature alabaster skin, darkened brow, lined lids, and crimson lip, and all we could think was, doesn’t the whole thing ever get, [...]
