Marc Jacobs Splash Series Summer 2011
Every year, Marc Jacobs releases a series of light colognes that are unisex and really easy to wear. I like them because they’re usually different and represent the summer. This year, the theme is cocktails, and so the Splash ‘flavours’ are Cranberry, Ginger, and Curacao. Because each splash is a blend of different notes, they [...]
Marc Jacobs Stirs Things Up With a Bang
Marc Jacobs’ new scent is called Bang, and the only thing that’s really catching my eye is the ad campaign, which features a naked Marc Jacobs holding a bottle of his own scent to cover his private parts. It’s reminiscent of his ad for Louis Vuitton that had him holding a bag to cover his [...]
Backstage at Marc Jacobs
NARS was backstage at the Marc Jacobs show and Francois Nars himself was doing the makeup. The look was smoky green eyes and deep lips, which was pretty enough to work in real life too! Inspiration? “The look is very reminiscent of Angelica Houston in the 70s-the bleached brows and the deep eyes,” said François [...]
Marc Jacobs Splash Series 2010
The Marc Jacobs Splash Series has some new members! This past March, Marc Jacobs introduced Pomegranate, Biscotti, and Apple into its series of cologne perfumes, and like those from previous years, these are also sold in huge bottles so you can use them as you wish. The Splash series has been around since 2006 and [...]
Marc Jacobs Daisy in the Air
New this month is Marc Jacobs Daisy in the Air. If you think this smells like the original – you are right – it IS the original! The only thing that has changed is the flower on top of the bottle – it is a plastic blue this spring, so if you’re restocking this bottle, [...]
Marc Jacobs Lola Expands
Lola by Marc Jacobs was probably one of our favourite scents from 2009 – it definitely left an impression, and that’s because of the beautiful plastic flower on top of the bottle as well as the classic scent itself. This scent was like a Chanel No. 5 for the young set – sophisticated and different [...]
Product Recommendations
I wanted to share the products that I recommended to my friends at the spa party I held recently. I have to say that I was surprised that some of my friends just weren’t aware of all the great brands available at their local Sephora, like Ojon, Urban Decay, and Canada’s own Cargo! So many [...]
Marc Jacobs Daisy Silver Edition
I love how instead of product the (often sneered at) flankers to his perfume like most companies do, Marc Jacobs chooses to switch it up. Now, if you’re a Marc Jacobs fan, or if you simply love Daisy so much that you want to keep wearing it, you can get a totally new version of [...]
Marc Jacobs Lola
This fall, Marc Jacobs comes out with a new scent called Lola. I have it and love it. It is one that I can wear everyday and not get tired of it. It is a fragrance that’s lovely and pretty but isn’t overly feminine. It’s young and fun without being frivolous and why shouldn’t it [...]
