How I Wear My Michael Kors Watch

Michael Kors is releasing their  new Limited Edition Runway Watch for fall. The Paris themed watch is going to debut on October 15, and is the second in a series of destination inspried watches, following the New York version. 

This watch is BEAUTIFUL. The intricate design of the Eiffel Tower on the backside is amazing. Paris holds a special place in my heart since my husband proposed under the Eiffel Tower in Vegas. When we went to Paris after we were married, he reenacted his proposal under the real Eiffel Tower - J'adore Paris!

To celebrate the debut of this new watch, Michael Kors kicked off its #MKTimeless social campaign. Fans can post photos of their Michael Kors watches to Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #MKTimeless for entries to win a watch of the own.

In case you are wondering, below is how I would rock my Michael Kors Paris Limited Edition Runway Watch. This watch is perfect for going from day to night. I would rock it with a blazer during the day, and then slip off my blazer to leave a black dress and ankle boots for night.

Giveaway Break - Playboy VIP for Him & Her

 

Playboy Fragrances has released a new line, Playboy VIP for Him and Her. I LOVE trying out new his/her fragrances. I like when my hubby and I can wear matching scents (I know, cheesy!).

Playboy VIP for Her is full of floral and sparkling ingredients, with notes of a subtle musk and sandalwood. Something about it makes me think of sparkling champagne, which too me, screams 'VIP!' I normally don't like 'musk' scents but this one has a super fresh smell to it. 
 
Playboy VIP for Him has top notes of bergamot and accents of white chocolate and rich sandalwood. The sandalwood really stands out. This is a very sexy, manly scent.

Playboy VIP for Her retails at $17 and Playboy VIP for Him at $15.67. You can find Playboy VIP at drugstores nationwide. Or...you can try to win a set for you and your man!

RUSK Wired

I am currently loving RUSK Wired flexible styling creme. It's a thicker styling cream, and when applied to towel dried hair, makes blow drying a breeze and leaves my hair super smooth. Rusk rates it as a medium (3 out of 6) on their 'hold scale.'

For my short hair, I applied a little more than a pea size amount (maybe 2 peas!). I rubbed it between my hands and then applied it first to my ends, and then work up to my roots. I quickly pulled a comb through my hair to help distribute it. I blow dried my hair and voila, silky smoothness. I like how it gives the ends of my hair a smooth finish after flat ironing, and less of a frizzy finish. It held up nice in the humidity and it's great for every day styling. I was given a 2oz travel size to test out, which is perfect for my work travel. This also comes in a larger, 6oz full size.

Are the 80s Coming Back?

After taking this picture my husband asked 'are the 80s coming back?' Yes, Mike. Yes they are. Colored jeans, bright tops and high tops can be found flooding the NYC streets. I haven't given into the high tops yet, but gave in to buy my first pair of colored skinny jeans, which I love.

Get out your hairspray cans ladies...big hair may be coming back!
