Panties By Post

I have always been a great believer
in the power (and the pleasure)
of wearing really fabulous lingerie.

Regardless of what you are wearing on top,
there is nothing quite like wearing something
entirely gorgeous next to your nether-regions.

In fact, they say that the secret to French women's confidence
is all about what they have on underneath.

So, just in time for Valentine's day,
and entirely inspired by what the mailman just delivered

How To Line Your Entire Eye With Eyeliner

From the eHow.com Corinna B series, here is a quick video on how to line your entire eye with eyeliner.

image Kelly Cappelli



So, to recap:

1. Think about the shape of your eye.
If you have small eyes, keep the liner thin as completely ringing your eye with liner can make it look smaller.
If you have very close set eyes, don't take the liner all the way into your inner corner, as it can make your eyes look even more closely set together.

2. Use a moderately sharpened pencil - don't sharpen it to a tight point as it will probably crumble. Don't use a completely blunted down pencil either, as you will lose definition. You want to have control of the line you are creating.

3. Lie the pencil on it's side and move it through the lashline, using small, even strokes.
Start in the middle of your eye, move the pencil through the outer corner, ans then come back through the inner corner.
Don't try to pull it through in one perfect sweep - chances are it will bounce across the eye and make a bumpy, uneven mess.

4.Using an eyeliner brush (like the Corinna B Taklon liner brush) and a powder eyeshadow that matches your eyeliner pencil - dark brown shadow with dark brown pencil / black shadow with black pencil etc
image Kelly Cappelli
firstly set the pencil with shadow to stop it moving and disappearing as the day/night wears on, then secondly using feathering motions, buff through the pencil and soften out that line.
Tipping the angled liner brush on its side, slide it under your lower lashes, and buff a soft smudgy line, accenting your lower lashes. (I prefer not to use pencil under the eye as it doesn't have much staying power and can look too severe)

5. Top it off with a couple of coats of mascara.

How is it that we are already seeing the February issues??
I'm barely recognizing that its 2013 yet!

But anyway, photographer Thomas Whiteside captured
this fun story for the February issue of Elle US.

Naomi Campbell does what she does so well
in divine threads from Alexander McQueen,

El Efecto Vintage ~ Vogue Spain

What a way to kick off a new year!!!
Edita Vilkeviciute by Demarchelier for Vogue Espana

Patrick Demarchelier's new editorial
for Vogue Espana is just gorgeous.
Of course, he is the master, and his lensmanship
is beyond brilliant, as always.

But what kills me is the amazing styling by Belen Antolin.
Every image is so rich.
So layered with texture, color, and thought provoking pairings.
Fashion Editor Antolin has such a phenomenal eye, 
is such a genius stylist.
There is just so much to see in each image.
I. Die.

Model Edita Vilkeviciute tells a story  
of a rock n roll meets vintage inspired look 
with designs from the likes of Lanvin, Dolce and Gabbana, 
Nina Ricci, Roberto Cavalli and Oscar de la Renta.
