Timeless Elegance

Sometimes I like to fantasize about the goodies I would invest in if money weren't an issue. Yes, invest. There are many pieces of fashion that are timeless and are meant to last decades, like a beautiful Burberry trench coat or a pair of pearl earrings. Some investments are for comfort, like a pair of great fitting shoes. I've created a collection of timeless elegance that I would purchase if I had an unlimited budget. Some items I already have, like the Chloe perfume. I love a timeless, understated, elegant look like the items below would create.


I'd love to hear what you think and what items - not necessarily from below, you find timeless and/or elegant.

Burberry slim coat, $1,840 / L.K.Bennett round toe suede pumps, $300 / Kate Spade red crossbody / MELANIE GEORGACOPOULOS 18k earrings / FOSSIL stainless steel watch / Bare Escentuals mineral lipstick / Chloé lily perfume

Beauty Love: Bare Escentuals

In my never-ending quest for the perfect cruelty-free eyeliner, I think I have found a winner. I'm excited about this. As many of you know, I love Flower Beauty cosmetics. The line has a great liquid liner that I use, but it's only available in black or brown; it is a great product. The navy shade in the pencil liner is a perfect shade and goes on great. The other shades are too dark for what I want, so I turned to Bare Escentuals, and I struck gold. I chose the Lasting Line Long Wearing Eyeliner in brown, grey, and orchid. They are great. They go on smoothly, and the pigmentation is exactly what I want - not too dark and not too light.

Bare Escentuals also has a skin care line that I have started trying and am loving it. I plan on trying more after I run out of what I already have, at least the moisturizer.

If  you've tried any of Bare Escentuals products, tell me what  you think!
