There is a real funny Newsweek article on the great non-fashionista phenomenon known as the Crocs. I loved how writer Steve Tuttle called it a 'fashion Chernobyl' - brilliant. Bravo Steve.
I have to admit, if Gael Garcia Bernal showed up at my front door wearing neon green ones, I'd seriously have to think about running away. But he'd never wear them anyway...I hope.

Steven Fiore is a great young artist to watch for. His song "Waiting Up For You" from the Makeshift EP is so pretty. At the risk of sounding sappy, it just tugged at the heart strings. I can't wait for his new full-length album Etiquette to release later this year.

For all you NorCal wedding belles that haven't found the perfect venue (and the oh-so-important vendors), check out Fanfare's “Summer Wedding Soirée" at the gorgeous Kohl Mansion. Sip some bubbly as you peruse the talents of wedding pros... nibble on some tasty savories and desserts while you enjoy the heavenly sounds of harpist Anna Mendieta. Everything you need for a fairytale wedding will be at your fingertips.
The fun part of the evening will be learning choreographer Cynthia Glinka’s “tips and tricks” on the dance floor. Bridesmaid gowns from Vera Wang, Badgley Mischka, Amsale, Jim Hjelm, etc will be showcased, and MAC Cosmetics will offer makeup tips for the bridal party. Guests are also eligible to win a Romantic Two-Island Hawaiian Vacation (prize value of $3,266).

We're ushering in a new era of ultimate mascaras! Lancome is having a sneak preview of their new Oscillation vibrating (that's right, vibrating) mascara for ONE day only (Thursday, July 31). The battery-operated brush provides 7,000 micro-oscillations per minute, wrapping lashes up to 360 degrees. Whoa.
It will not be available again until the fall, so first come, first serve. The limited first-edition supply will be available on Lancome-usa.com and Sephora.com, as well as select Macy's, Lancome boutiques and other stores.
