Alexa Chung: Inside my beauty bag. As such, it will presumably offer a new version of the chip for its Mac Pro and perhaps its larger MacBook Pro, and the company suggested that new computers. Barbour x Alexa Chung Violet Jacket ($764) I just love its collab with Alexa Chung. A classic rain mac you'll reach for time and again.
Forget about booty shorts and crop tops, we’re already thinking about Fall: Chelsea boots, sweaters, high-neck blouses and deep, moody makeup.
Jewel Tones and Moody Makeup: Key fall makeup trends include jewel tones, rich berry lips and metallic liners, all of which are at the centre of MAC Cosmetics’ Indulge Collection. Luxe in colour and finish, we have our eyes on the Gilt Gourmet Fluidline gel liner (a decadent rich gold), the Haute & Naughty Too Black Lash (Editorial Director Manjot’s favourite mascara right now!) and lipsticks in Just A Bite (mid-tone blue red) and Sweet Succulence (deep glossy plum). The colours in this collection will look amazing on South Asian skin tones. Available online August 15, and in stores August 22 through October 3, 2013.
Alexa Chung’s New Makeup Collection: Model, DJ, writer, artist, TV host and general superstar, Alexa Chung, has collaborated with Eyeko, a British eye makeup company, on a new collection that will include her artwork. Available in November, expect liquid liner and mascara in quirky packaging at a Sephora near you. (Via Women’s Wear Daily)
Naturally at Sparkles & Secrets we LOVE professional fashionista Alexa Chung. As a functioning designer denim addict, AG makes some of my favorite pieces (s/o to “the Stilt.”) Yesterday they released a line together and the fashion angels sang, bloggers rushed to get the first AC for AG goods, and I sat and perused my Instagram feed with envy (for the time being.) I’ve chosen to style two pieces my readers might be skeptical about.
One particular piece I was shocked to find myself drooling over was a denim skirt. Although my friend Nicole has been *insisting* that they were making a comeback for nearly a year now, I’ve shut her down time and time again. Nikki, you were right.

On the left is how we would style the AC for AG denim skirt for spring/summer and on the right is how we would style it for fall/winter (mild days of course.) Mara Hoffman cropped top, be mine?

At first I wasn’t sure how I felt about AC’s “off the shoulder ruffle dress.” Perhaps I was apprehensive about it because I am typically too busty for ruffles– fair? However, after playing around a little bit I think I’ve come up with a couple cute options for the dress– which should be worn in the spring and in milder climates. Light pink Manolo Blahnik heels? Crying because they aren’t in my closet… but I’m into the floral converse as well. The bag on the right is ZAC Zac Posen (a personal favorite,) and on the right a $40 backpack from New Look… but I think they look like they came from the same collection.

Probably the most iconic piece in the AC for AG collection is this retro denim dress. The dress makes a vintage statement that shouldn’t be ignored, only built on. Love the idea of wearing this dress with navy heels in order to dress it up a bit, and a fringe bag to solidify the statement. Want to go for a more casual style? Try Vans (or Converse) with a cool floral backpack. This one is Adidas by Stella McCartney… I think the Beatles (the designers Dad is Paul McCartney,) would approve.
