Dior Garden Clutch 002 Granville Garden Spring 2012 Makeup 1

.

With the gorgeous rose motifs, Dior‘s spring 2012 makeup collection, Garden Party, is such a pretty collection. The limited-edition seasonal star item, Dior Garden Clutch, is available in two variations, 001 Milly Garden and 002 Granville Garden. The choice was easy for me. As I prefer warmer neutrals, I went for 002 Granville Garden with my Boots points.

Stella McCartney L.I.L.Y Eau de Parfum Spring 2012 1

.

Stella McCartney launched her debut fragrance, Stella, in 2003. Beautifully feminine with a modern edge, the rose-toned scent has been among my three favorite fragrances. Over the years, the Stella collection grew and grew, with Rose Absolute (a stunning creation that shouldn’t have been discontinued), Stella in Two (Peony & Amber), StellaNude, and the annual limited-edition Sheer Stella (2004-2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011).

I always wondered when (rather than whether) a second fragrance would be launched and how it would compare with Stella. The anticipation was over with the arrival of L.I.L.Y this month.

Kanebo Coffret d'Or Wide Gradation Eyes 04 Deep Brown Spring 2012 Makeup 1

.

Kanebo Coffret d’Or‘s Wide Gradation Eyes is from the line’s spring/summer 2012 makeup collection. As most of Coffret d’Or’s eyeshadow palettes contain four shades, the new series, with five shades in each variation, certainly caught my attention. Four variations are available, and I decided to go for 04 Deep Brown.

Paul and Joe Face and Eye Color CS 078 Purr-fect Lipstick C 077 Catwalk Spring 2012 Makeup 1

.

I still remember seeing Paul & Joe Beauté‘s beautiful debut collection for spring 2002 in Biteki magazine. Over the years, the style of the packaging has remained the same, which I think is one of the elements that reflect the success of the line. It is the combination of the soft and feminine product packaging design and the seasonal fashion-inspired Collections Sparkles, which are based on designer Sophie Albou’s catwalk creations.

Paul & Joe’s spring 2012 Meow! makeup collection celebrates the line’s 10th anniversary, and the inspiration of the collection is Albou’s love of cats. Today I am featuring Face & Eye Color CS in 078 Purr-fect and Lipstick C in 077 Catwalk.
