Holiday Glitz and Glam

The holidays are right around the corner, and that means parties, cocktail hours and festive gatherings are upon us! I adore this season for so many reasons: the warmth of friends and family, the magic of the decorations, and the fact that we get to dress up in more sparkles […]

Understated and Chic: Caramel Nude Nails

I love switching up my mani color according to the season, and this Fall I’ve been wearing OPI’s understated Ice-Bergers & Fries nail polish a bunch. It’s a little bit caramel, mixed with taupe, and has become one of my faves. The chic neutral goes with all the bright coats, printed dresses and pastel […]

Cold Weather Skin Tips

I love this time of year. When the trees turn gorgeous colors and the nights get chillier, and we get to wrap up in cozy sweaters and go for crisp, sunny walks with the leaves crunching underfoot.  It always takes me a moment to realize that along with the new Autumn […]

Classic Red Lips

Red lipstick is a true beauty classic, and one of my favorite looks! I love conjuring a little Old Hollywood glamour with a swipe of lipstick, and I especially love the boost that a bold shade can give a girl. Seems like wearing such a bold shade automatically adds a […]

My Signature Scent

On the other, it’s totally recognizable and becomes more a part of your signature style than any jacket or handbag. I do love to switch up my perfume according […]

Trick or Treat! Here’s My Halloween Makeup

Halloween: the time of tricks, treats, and totally escapist beauty! I love this holiday, we get the chance to try out some seriously bright, out there makeup! Now, I might not wear all of these spooky looks at once (check out my my Instagram tonight to see my costume!), but I do love the […]

Ask Louise: Winter Nail Polish Colors

“Which are the best colors for painting my nails this winter season?” — Chantal Hi Chantal, great question! I love painting my nails a different shade every week. For Fall, I love a rich berry red, on short, square-filed nails. It’s so elegant and looks great with a camel overcoat. […]

My Favorite Face Masks

Sometimes a girl just has to curl up on her couch with a bowl of popcorn and a chick flick to recharge, am I right? In the interest of multitasking, I’ll apply a facial mask at the same time to give my skin a much-needed drink. Here are some of […]

Classic Crimson

Few things are as simple, as perfect, and as classic as red nails. I tend to mix up my manis with trendier colors during the summer, but now in this chillier season, I’m feeling more timeless tones. Whenever I look down at freshly lacquered nails in a true red, I […]
