Design Bitch — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 13:55:32 +0000

How perfect is it that a bag that makes my heart skip a beat upon seeing it would be appropriately named ‘Heartbeat‘? The Rebecca Minkoff ‘Heartbeat’ Shoulder Bag is one of the newest silhouettes from the brand behind the ever-popular ‘Morning After Bag‘. The ‘Heartbeat‘ is a rounded leather shoulder bag with a heart-shaped curved top and a sinuous, herringbone-style chain strap snaking its way throughout the sides and bottom. The long straps give you the option of carrying it crossbody style and with its hippie-chic feel, that‘s exactly the way you‘ll want to wear it. It also features dual zip front pockets accented with leather tassels, and a top zip closure. Measures 12 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ with a 21″ strap drop.

3 Easy Ways To Freshen Up Your Makeup Right Now

Everyday around 3 or 4 o’ clock in the afternoon, my face starts to look and feel like it could use a little freshening up. I desperately need a quick pick-me-up to help me get through the day but with a few more hours to go before I can free myself from the daily grind, I need something that requires practically zero effort. The fix? I reach for my makeup bag that holds 3 essential beauty Secret Weapons. Here are 3 tried and true quick fixes to a fresher face in a snap!

Oil Blotting Sheets
Every makeup bag needs a handy packet of oil blotting sheets to pick up that layer of oil and grime that has built up throughout the day. Try one of Mai Couture’s Blotting Papiers to give your face a fresh revitalizing glow.

Mai Couture Blush Papier, $28

Peachy Lip Gloss
Lip gloss will almost always do the trick when it comes to brightening up your face. Give your lips a punch of color in a sheer peachy pink shade like Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Nude Lustre.

Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Nude Lustre, $6.99

Facial Spray
For a face deprived of moisture, replenishing with a refreshing spritz of a facial spray will work wonders. Choose one with packed with antioxidants and minerals like Evian Mineral Water spray to keep you looking fresh throughout the day.
