(See pictures above.)

Get a Flawless Complexion like SATC’s Kristin Davis!

May 20, 2010 By

There’s a trick to looking camera ready, even in these days of bright lights and HD cameras. Have you ever had your picture taken with a 1080p camera? It’s not always the best experience… especially if you have dark circles, blemishes or sun spots.

So, how did Kristin Davis get her perfectly put together look on-camera?

Sex and the City 2 Make Up Artist Nicki Ledermann used MAKE UP FOR EVER HD Invisible Cover Foundation #155 to get Kristin Davis’ flawless on-camera complexion.

High definition imagery shows pictures that are six times as sharp as previous, softer grained images, so HD Invisible Cover Foundation was designed to hide fine lines and wrinkles, skin imperfections and shine, which can all look more obvious under an HD lens, while remaining extremely natural looking and invisible to the eye on-screen.

You can get Make Up for Ever HD Invisible Cover Foundation at Sephora!

Sex and the City Inspires Me to Be Sexier and Stylin’!

May 19, 2010 By

I have a mystery subscription to Entertainment Weekly that shows up, well weekly and usually I just thumb through it and toss it. Well when I laid eyes upon this week’s Sex and the City issue, I teared up a bit and plopped my butt down to read up on all that is my Sex and the City girls. Similarly, my legit subscription to Marie Claire showed up with a little SJP action. This is how I am able to wait until the sequel to 2008′s emotional Sex and the City movie hits theaters.

From the very beginning of this show, I have longed to be a fashionista just like Carrie and the girls. After every episode I would troll the internet for the clothes they were wearing (which I usually had no way of affording or fitting into) and long to have even a fraction of their fictional lifestyle. Well obviously, I am no Sarah Jessica Parker… and let’s face it, some of Samantha’s actions have been questionable. But one thing that I know for sure is that Sex and the City inspires me, in a real life way, to be sexier and stylin’.

Whether, I could relate to an issue on the show or just had to have those clothes, I looked to these gals as a little bit of motivation to ramp up my wardrobe or have a little more sass at the club. Some readers might say that it is pathetic to long to be someone out of a tv show but those people would misunderstand where I am coming from. I don’t long to be a character or one of the actresses but rather I take inspiration from the creators of this mega awesome franchise because they have put together something that I feel is worthwhile and beloved. Can I get a Amen?!

Just in reading my EW this week, I was inspired to search out some new items to spice up my wardrobe for the Summer, not because it was similar to what the SATC girls are wearing but I was just ready to rock something fresh and somewhat exciting after getting my fix. Am I crazy?

An example of my inspired fashion direction-

If I could splurge?

What I’d be more likely to get…

Bring it On, Carrie!
