Artist Showcase: Russell Chatham

I discovered this artist via Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations episode in Montana. Aren't these lithographs beautiful? I love the golden hues and overall feeling of peace Chatham incorporates into his work.

Montana really sounds lovely. It's going on my to-do list.

Cool Idea: Gobos for Signs

Gobos are a classy, albeit expensive, way to brand your event. I love the use of one here on a plain-faced building. It almost looks like a magazine ad, doesn't it?

The Lids

I've been going through some major life changes lately, most importantly, my eyeliner. I've always admired girls who could pull off a heavy lid, but with my fair skin, didn't consider myself among the lucky few.

Enter: Bobbi Brown's Award-Winning Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner.

I know my euphoria is bound to even out a bit, but I've honestly looked forward to getting up and putting makeup on in the morning. Coming from a girl knee deep in a record-breaking Chicago winter, that is really my highest honor. A heavy line helps brigthen the eyes and because its quick-dry AND smudge proof, those sharp lines stay with you all day, making you appear more alert and polished. Plus, you get to apply it with a paintbrush, which is super fun.

Have you discovered any beauty products out there with similar magical qualities? I'd love to hear about them.

Stylized.

I'm digging this 80s throwback haircut.
