Good To Be Michael Kors Today As First Lady Michelle Wows in Origami Jacket

If you fancy this Michael Kors origami-inspired portrait collar jacket, well, good luck trying to find it now....SOLD OUT!


Talk about "the state of the union" when you've got this pretty, zip-up 22" long blazer on!


First Lady Michelle Obama stole many hearts when she was televised wearing this modern + chic Michael Kors $800 jacket at President Obama's State of the Union address last evening.

Michelle Obama wore the woolen jacket with a matching dress and looked very lady-like + very Washington-savvy, so much so,  that women rushed out to Neiman Marcus and Nordstorm stores to pick up the very last Michael Kors jackets left.

ALL gone, ladies, except for a size 2 we found on Ebay this morning, for $795 or Best Offer.

A few sharp Twitter folks also brought up the little known fact that the Michael Kors origami-inspired portrait collar jacket was worn first on TV by none other than Julianna Margulies in the Good Wife.

Love it!


So, who wore it BETTER? We think this jacket looks AMAZING on all 3, including the model. Gotta LOVE American sportswear legend Michael Kors It's good to be king today.

New Triple Microdermabrasion Face Polish by Exuviance: Beauty At Its Best 2015

Exfoliation.

We have been stressing this key step in the beauty routine in many BeautyTipToday posts for a few years now.

And it's simple to remember:

If you want smooth, clear, radiant, younger-looking skin, then exfoliation, or getting rid of dead, dull, clogging skin cells, is essential.

New Triple Microdermabrasion Face Polish by Exuviance is a WINNER, and must-have product in your skin care arsenal for 2015. Check it out here. Well worth the $72 beauty investment.


We were lucky enough to try this effective exfoliator recently, and we must say---
We LOVE this face polish....like a professional microdermabrasian treatment in a tube!

The orange-y-looking cream polish is made with papaya enzyme + glycolic acid to help dissolve all the bad stuff clogging your pores + dulling up your complexion. It is also formulated with pure professional grade crystals used by dermatologists to smooth skin.

The triple action comes from the face polish's special blend of physical, chemical and enzyme rejuvenators.


We found our complexion become smoother, brighter + cleaner-feeling after just one morning application. And next when we applied our makeup, foundation glided on easily, etc.

We also tried the Exuviance Triple Microdermabrasion Face Polish at night before going to bed. And after when we applied our nighttime serum, it, too, glided on smoothly and became absorbed immediately.

And this face polish is quick + simple to use:

Once or twice a week, apply a thin even layer to a clean wet face, lightly massaging in a circular motion for 30 seconds, avoiding eye area. Do not scrub. Leave on for up to 2 minutes (up to 1 minute for sensitive skin). Thoroughly rinse with warm water and gently pat dry. Follow with an Exuviance serum and moisturizer.

You can find this new face polish in fine beauty shops, too, like ULTA.

Gisele Intimates: Why Not? It's Game Day!!

As the New England Patriots try to secure their spot in Super Bowl 49 with the AFC Championship victory tonight, we thought it would be fitting to check out Gisele Bundchen's lingerie line, since the famous model happens to be married to Pats QB Tom Brady.


Gisele IntimatesUSA online
.
GiseleIntimates.

Her pretty collections feature bras + panties in EVERY style---from corselets to push-ups and briefs to Brazilian thongs.

Prices are NOT the cheapest at $53 for a SINGLE panty, for instance. But the quality is there, and the pieces are hand-made.


Do you own a bra or panty from the Gisele line of lingerie?

Kris Jenner Camel Coat Classic: Timeless Style + Color

Kris Jenner---you look AMAZING in this camel coat! CLASSIC. Period.


We admit, we are not usually a major fan of Kardashian momma Kris' style, but after seeing her black on black top + pants and this timeless camel coat to boot, well, we must give credit where it's due.

Is newly divorced Kris borrowing daughter Kim's coat?

We are not sure, but this camel coat is the perfect neutral that goes with everything under the sun.

LOVE it.

We found a cheaper copy-cat camel coat. This one has a belt that is removable. Similar over-sized cut + feel to Kris' coat.

By Mango, on SALE now for $114.99.


A can't go wrong, classic look, ladies!

New Mascara In 2015: Rimmel Wonder'Lash Makes Debut

We admit. We are a mascara freak....and proud of it. Cannot live without this beauty staple.

So when a NEW mascara comes to town, we will tell you all about it. Here we are---already 2015.

Rimmel London Wonder'Lash ($8.99, at ULTA stores).


What's so wonder'ful about NEW Wonder'Lash?

The formula is infused with argan oil, somehow. and yet, it's NOT a greasy product.

If we believe the beauty hype about Rimmel London, then we can expect soft, healthy lashes with shine + volume.

Wonder'Lash comes in Black and Extreme Black. Plus the mascara wand or brush looks pretty decent.

We like Rimmel London mascaras. They are drugstore inexpensive and have nice, build-able volume.

Wonder Bra and now....Wonder'Lash. It was bound to happen soon.

The Jumpsuit Remains HOT This Winter As Gwyneth Paltrow Proves In Nude

Jumpsuit. The word either elicits an UGH or a WOW.

If you like this 70's style, then start putting your body into one. Yeah, we know....hate it when you have to use the bathroom, but still---a jumpsuit can flatter every body type and give off the illusion of longer legs + a slimmer figure.

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow showed off her body in a nude, silk Valentino jumpsuit with ruffle detail on theTonight Show with Jimmy Fallon last evening.


Yeah...we can see your Spanx, Gwyneth! But that's okay. She has a great figure and smart enough to know that a curve-hugging jumpsuit in NUDE will show just about everything, so best to keep the body looking SMOOTH before slipping into one of these.

We found a COPY-CAT jumpsuit in nude for much, much LESS. Check out British fashion label Boohoo. Here's a Steffy Wrap Over Silky Jumpsuit for just $35!

Plus...this one looks a bit more comfy + looser than the jumpsuit Gwyneth has poured herself into.


Okay then....Jumpsuits now in winter....Or will you wait until spring to get in one?

Get Amal Clooney's Gorgeous Red Carpet Goddess Gown For So Much Less--$159!

Okay, so you DON'T have to wear the white opera gloves.....But we LIKED Amal Clooney's first red carpet appearance at Sunday evening's Golden Globes awards show in L.A..

And now you, too, can COPY Amal's expensive, Dior Couture goddess gown for only $159 from David's Bridal.

Why spend thousands$$$ when you can get a decent knock-off for so much less?!

Let's take a look at the striking, human rights lawyer and recently married Mrs. Clooney.


We would have preferred the gloves were in black and + form-fitting. But otherwise, the gloves as part of the ensemble are fine by us, and if Amal were going for old Hollywood glam, we think she nailed it nicely.

At David's Bridal, we found 2 black, one-shoulder gowns to choose from--each one at an affordable $159. One has the sari effect Amal is displaying here. The other gown, minus the long sash. Either way, the look is simple + chic--classic,

One-Shoulder Long Jersey Dress with Cascade Back.

Long On-Shoulder Jersey Gown

We think the gown without the sari (photo2) looks more like Amal's dress if it didn't have the sash (sari).

We look forward to more Amal style in the upcoming awards shows!
