My New Obsession...

In the current state of our  global environmental condition, it's just not practical for a girl to be spending her time and hard earned dollars on toxic and hazardous beauty products.  BUT... it is the season of peep toes and flip flops, so in the grand tradition of an old time saying when there is a will, there is a way.. I introduce to you *insert drum roll here*    ButterLONDON. 

The lacquers are 3free containing no formaldehyde, toluene or DBP... lets here is for NON TOXIC!  

Hit up www.butterlondon.com to pick your colour (or if your heading to the Gastown Shop Hop, Ishara on Water St carries the line).. they have over 40, so it's easy to find one you'll love...and if your feeling really curious try out the JELLY line, it's made to feel like lipgloss for your nails.  I stuck with the traditional version; my last foray into into unorthadox nail polish was with matte.. pretty much felt like a head trip the whole time.. what can I say I'm a  classy girl.

Artful Dodger was my pick.

Return of the Silver Fox?...

While everyone is on the point for trend season eagerly paying attention and buying up new spring looks (cause how could we possibly be caught strutting down the street looking less than tres chic??) I have noticed a little something else in the "trend" department....a resurrection of the Silver Fox.  I began to noticed it inside the pages of GQ...the first time it came in the form of Ted Dansen looking sharp in a spread focused on grey suits and all the while sporting none other than what could be the perfect accessory, but a full head of silver shiny hair! tuche Ted, tuche. 

 The following month it was Pierce Brosnan looking super fly and exuding more confidence and energy than his youthful costars (..Robert Pattinson in this months Remember Me, which has me anticipating finally seeing robert not acting as some constipated vampire...BUT that's a whole other topic on its own, and generally I like to keep the mood positive here, but don't worry Rob, I dig the devil may care style and effortlessly coifed hair....oh dear did i tangent again?).  If any one is keeping track, that's 2 points for the Silver Fox. 

 The final one was Michael Douglas on the cover of Vanity Fair (for the sequal to Wall Street co-staring non other than my fav Shia  LaBeouf) sitting on a wall of gold bars and money, which is probibly the same image that Cathrine Zeta Jones imagined when she first met him...oops I did it again!! ok I have to stop typing cause it might only get worse...quick cut to the photos.
