New York Fashion week kicks off TODAY!!! The Semi-annual event is held in February and September. It’s one of four major fashion weeks held around the world(along with Paris,London and Milan). Designers will present their Fall/Winter 2012 collections and the who’s who of the fashion world will congregate in Lincoln Center for an amazing week of shows and even better parties. I’m especially looking forward to Narciso Rodriguez, Diane Von Furstenberg, Tory Burch, Richard Chai, Charlotte Ronson, Jason wu, Vivienne Tam, L.A.M.B, Monique Lhuillier and Vera Wang.
Fashion week is here!!!!!
9 FebGet your brow on
8 FebEyebrows literally frame your face. Lets not forget about our furry friends while going about our makeup routines. I have tried all things BROW and trust me, these 2 kits are the best. NYC kit($4) available at Target. 
Lorac, Take a brow kit($22) available at sephora. I love these powder and wax kits because they give a very natural look as opposed to the ‘drawn on’ look. My brows are pretty thick, but I use this kit to fill in and keep my brows put. I used to use the lorac kit religiously and bought the NYC kit just to try out and it works just as great. The Lorac kit comes in 4 color Palettes, that is the advantage. I happened to find my color in the NYC kit, so I use that now and Hello it’s $4 bucks!
