Brownie Spotlight: Syndeys Seoul

Hey Brownies,

Remember last month when I did the post about the best birthday gift ever that my niece Ebony made me? Well, if you didn't read about here it is "My Birthday Gift". Guess what, she's not the only talented one in the family check out her sister, Tamika's work at Sydneys Seoul. This girl is so very creative and her work is costumed made, so you don't ever have to worry about someone rocking the same thing that you have. Why be a customer, when you can get it costumed? She made earrings, bracelets, personalized journals, phone cases, ring, necklaces and much more. Check out some of her pieces below and if you're interested just click on the link up top for more info.

Versace Collection for H&M

Brownies,

I almost fainted when I saw the pics from the Versace Collection for H&M that hit stores on 11/17. I love the bright baroque patterns and sexy body-conscious cuts, both signatures of the Versace brand's heyday in the 1980s and '90s. The collection includes jackets, shoes, purses, scarfs and of course fly ass ish for the men and women. I have my eye on a couple of the dresses, the motorcycle jacket, shoes and belts. Here a couple of my faves, I hope I get the grab a couple of things because I know its going to be a problem. If you want to view the entire collection, check out it out here.

Face of the Day: Smokey Eyes Blues

Friday afternoon, I did my makeup before I headed to my part time job at Macys. I wanted to play around with a MAC pigment that I've never used before so I cracked it open and got busy lol. I also decided to try to contour my nose just a little bit. Check me and let me know what you think. Sidenote: I had just washed my hair and it turned very pretty and wavy.

When Bad Makeup Happens: Nicki Minaj

Yesterday afternoon, Nicki Minaj helped announce the 2011 American Music Awards nominees. While I was looking at the pics I couldnt helped but notice her makeup. Now usually her makeup game is on point but not yesterday. I think she did her own makeup or her makeup artist didnt get a chance to finish. You can clearly see the contouring on her nose. I would personally make sure that the contoured section is blending because this a huge rap star that's taking pictures in the public eye. I wouldnt wait these pictures of her to reflect my work. Take a look and let me know what you think about it? * Side note: It looks like she has gotten breast implants or a good push up bra lol.
