Beauty in Bloom

What's in for beauty this Spring? Radiant and delicate skin, according to Peter Philips, Global Creative Director of Chanel Makeup. Les Perles de Chanel is bringing pearlized shades of pinks, corals, and peaches to keep your skin luscious and glowing. For night, create a smokey eye using deep shades of peacock green and polish in Black Pearl to give your nails an oil-black sheen.

Forget the Past and Fast Forward to the Future

Why dwell on the past when there is so much to look forward to in 2011? Instead of recapping the best looks from 2010, we're looking ahead to see what's in store for spring 2011.

Get ready for brights, prints, and short dresses. Citrus was a favorite on the runways for Missoni and Prabal Gurung who used block coloring. Go geometric and contrast this hue with a sea blue.



Prints are still in, but the florals are more exotic with an Asian feel. If you want to go printed, pick a simple style so it's not over the top or pair it with basics.





Whether they're solid and bright or sheer and lacey, you can always manage to look put together in a mini dress with its simple cut. Pair them with sparkly flats or chunky heels.




Try these looks. All items are less than $100.

Censored Stripes

Rihanna certainly has evolved into a fashionista since her early days of "Pon de Replay" in 2005. With her edgy yet quirky look, the pop star gets paid $100,000 to sit front row of the hottest shows of Fashion Week! Here, Rihanna takes stripes and sheer to a new level. Is this borderline jail uniform or a good look for the punk rock princess?

Fashion Week - Biker Chic

Sheer was all over the runway this September. Classy met rebellious as models wore leather jackets over sheer tops. Add a girly touch with strappy pink pumps.
