Fausto Puglisi is known for his bold colors and eccentric embellishments. His graphic designs are both edgy and modern. That’s why I loved this tamer collection done in all black, white and blush. It still has that signature boldness with gorgeous embellishments but has a softer beauty that makes for a stunning contrast.  The last outfit is my absolute favorite…

In our never ending wellness pursuit of achieving our best self, it seems like we are inundated with products and regimens everyday.  It’s hard to know where to start and where to end. So I will share one of my top indulgences. Moondeli’s wildcrafted adaptogen blends are quite possibly the easiest way to incorporate a wide assortment of quality ingredients into our everyday routine. They are certified organic and vegan, pure blends, free of any sweetener or sugars. You can add them to hot water, teas, milks, juices and smoothies and incorporate them into food.  Personally, I drink them all with hot water and a bit of manuka honey.

My favorites are the Golden Turmeric, with turmeric, ginger and black pepper, which is an anti -inflammatory digestive aid, full of antioxidants and is also detoxifying. In the Blue Green Adaptogen, spirulina  is known to be a powerful immune building plant protein, with detoxifying benefits, and tocos is a skin food that is also detoxifying and a great source of vitamin E. The Ceremony Tonic is basically a supercharged hot cocoa.  Matcha has l-theanine for focus and calm. Raw cacao is a mood enhancer with high levels of Iron, magnesium, calcium and antioxidants. And maca is a skin food that is also mood and energy booster. All the ingredients are sourced from Peru, China and Pakistan just for this one blend, to get the most potent highest quality of each.

There’s a natural remedy for everything. One of my favorite gifts to give now is box sets. They come with a little recipe book for smoothies and drinks as well as starter size of 6 different jars.

Their website has tons of recipes for food, desserts and drinks as well.

  The Last Line, intended to be literally the last line of jewelry you will ever need, has dropped the first line of several coming out in the next few months. The first drop is all about the ear, mixing a wide array of rainbows, flowers, hoops, studs, and safety pins, all the fun pieces that are worn in so many different combinations it’s hard to choose.  The variations of every size and color, make this a rather large collection so personalized. The heart collection, ranging from $60 to $1500 is the everyday pieces that are so playful and super easy to wear with anything. The soul collection ranging from $1,000 to $7,000 is the more elaborate, dressier side of the line. It’s vintage inspired and I think the whole fun of this Last Line is in how you do your own mix. There are also custom earrings with names and letters, and kind of anything you can dream up to put somewhere on your ear…

Iconic makeup artist Pat McGrath  is launching the limited release of the Metalmorphosis 005 collection at 12 p.m., November 15th. We saw glimpses of the collection first on the Versace and Margiela Spring 17 runway.  Despite the outrageous gilded finish, we saw a more subtle application at Versace where it was used as an eye highlighter with a more bare face for a dreamy but modern finish.  The collection will have silver, gold copper and bronze pigments and liquid that mix to an ultra luxurious metallic finish that turns into liquid metal, luminous, dramatic and bold.  The single shade set will be $60, and the “everything kit” set will be $165, as well as a dual sided black eyeliner marker that is $24.  The collection will also be available in select stores and sephora.com on November 22nd.
