Blinged Out Watch

Hi Angels!  

I love this watch by Stuhrling. It is part of the Audrey Collection, the Radiant model. I purchased it on Gilt.com for $79, while it's retail price was well over $400. It looks beautiful with most outfits. I love how the face looks like a shell, so unexpectedly beautiful.  I like to pair it with a fun bracelet, an evil eye bracelet has been my pairing of choice as of late. 

Happy Shopping!

Gucci Platform Pumps--SALE

Hi Angels!!

Check out these Gucci suede pumps I recently purchased at Bloomingdale's!  They are a cream/champagne color that goes well with monochromatic outfits to add a hint of unexpected color. I personally love round toe shoes because they are much more comfortable.  Surprisingly for their impressive height, the platform adequately offsets the impact.  I purchased these for $239.99, I know, I know, it's a little steep, but they were originally $520, I promise. If you are going to spend $150 for boutique 9, etc. might as well invest a little more for a wardrobe staple that will last for years to come.  

Happy Shopping!!

Luxe Foundation

Hi Angels!!

I wanted to share my experience with a new foundation I recently purchased at Sephora. I was on the market for something light, due to the unbearable heat we were recently dealing with. I decided to try Guerlain's Lingerie de Peau, and I was not at all disappointed. This foundation delivers a flawless, lightweight finish that literally feels like silk as you apply it. It claims to be an invisible skin fusion foundation packed with SPF 20 to protect your skin from the harmful UV rays from the sun.  I was overall very pleased with this foundation, it offered a flawless finish that adequately covered imperfections, and lasted for hours. I have been experiencing extreme amounts of shine lately, but that was not the case with this foundation, another huge plus!!  Please note that this is a lightweight foundation, so if you are looking for more coverage this is not the product. 

I know it has a hefty price point at $59 for a bottle, but if you feel like treating yourself to a luxe foundation, this is it.  It feels great as you apply it (they aren't kidding about the lingerie) and has beautiful packaging, as expected with Guerlain.

Dark corners smokey eyeshadow look! Pictorial/Tutorial!

Hello Angels!

I'm back with another different smokey eyeshadow and coral lip look that is very wearable during the day and can carry right into night.  It's easy to create and I've outlined the products used and steps below with lots of pics.
The Look:












I used the products pictured below.
Eyes:  MAC paint pot in groundwork, MAC pigment in Tan, MAC pro longwear eyeshadow in legendary black, MAC eyeshadow in Arena, MAC black kohl eyeliner in Feline, Benefit They're Real mascara.
Lips:  Beet lip liner (thick line), Vegas Volt lipstick


Groundwork as the base, all over the mobile lid to just above the crease

Feline pencil in the inner and outer corners of the eye, blend in to soften the effect towards middle of the eye
Legendary Black eyeshadow in the inner and outer corners of the eye over the feline pencil.  Blend well to really soften the edges of the Feline pencil towards the middle of the eye, making sure the color doesn't stray far above the eyelid crease.

Using a SMALL amount of Tan pigment (only need a crumb or two!!), apply to the center of the eyelid from lash line straight up to the brow bone at the highest point of your arch.  On the lid, blend this pigment outwards towards the dark corners.  In the brow highlight, dip your brush into Arena shadow and use this to blend blend blend the Tan pigment across the brow highlight area.  


  Now take a clean shadow brush and blend blend blend!!  Make sure you have no harsh color lines.  You want each of the colors to flow into each other seamlessly.
Next, add black eyeliner to the lower eyelid and smudge into the lower lash line.  Follow with black eyeliner to upper eyelid and at least two coats of mascara to upper and lower lashes.

Finito!  You are ready to serrrrrve.... Face that is!




HAPPY PAINTING!!!

Arm Candy!!!!

Hello Angels!

As the summer wears on, we want to share with you what we're wearing ON our wrists.  Two words:  ARM CANDY.  If you're not yet up on this trend, allow us at the Pretty Prescription to come to your rescue ;).
You may have been thinking less is more but with this trend more is... well, more!   There's really no wrong way to stack bracelets on your arms, with a nice statement watch, playing with texture and color.  Mix metals and materials for the ideal look.  If you're a DIYer then you're in luck because you can really play with creativity here and save lots of money.
Here are a few examples of what we're wearing and how we're wearing it:
                      


 


J. Crew, Kendra Scott and Stella and Dot are among our favorite jewelry designers. 
For very affordable and trendy bracelets and necklaces there are a few Etsy and online shops we love.
For example:  Gigglosophy
Another fave:  Urban Peach Boutique

And let's never forget our absolute fave for all affordable trendy things:  Target.  Yes.  Target.
With bracelets for as little a $6 a pop you'll have an awesome arm stack going in no time.
This is a fun fashion trend that really lets you express your individuality while following a trend (who knew!) so...  Happy shopping!
