Style Icon: Jane Birkin

I've seen pictures of Jane before but for some reason she never stood put to me quite as much as she has recently when I was looking up style icon ideas.


She had such a natural beauty! But I love the simple makeup and hair. She knew what worked for her- lots of mascara on her doe eyes, tousled hair and the bangs (as a wearer of imperfect long bangs, I always appreciate the less perfectly groomed ones too).


But to the style. I love how she was usually very casual, but never boring or frumpy. She wore plain tees (I've been inspired to roll up my sleeves too) and jeans- always flared- everywhere. Modern fashion bloggers who turn up their little noses at not constantly dressing in high heels short shorts, or expensive blouses just for walking downtown. While it's usually better to be overdressed than underdressed, I see no need when I'm just taking the bus or doing some shopping, even if I were still in school.



She sometimes wore dresses but they were too short for me. Nice use of simple accessories, though, including the signature straw bag. Overall a great look for warm weather!

Product Review: Hard Candy Plumping Serum Lipstick





LOVE this! Definitely the best lipstick I've tried. Almost every other feels so dry on your lips, but this stuff just glides right on. I got mine in a bright, rosy shade. I'm not normally one to wear lip products, but I always wanted a good lipstick.

Pros: Easy application, good colors, stays on, good packaging.

Cons: None. Though you may wish to apply a bit of chapstick beforehand to ensure that it stays on if you're planning on drinking or eating anything, like with most lip products.
