While looks from straight off the runways are not necessarily meant to be taken literally, I like to incorporate bit of high fashion here and there to enhance my style — particularly on my fingernails.
Each day this week we've been giving away awesome prizes from Yves St. Laurent's beauty line, and that's got me all excited about their fashion lineup.

Do you take your whole look straight from the runway or do you prefer to add a splash of high fashion here and there? However you do it, I have some great nail-polish color ideas inspired right off the Fall 2008 catwalks.

The headband trend has been going strong for months now, and in the past few days alone, it's been headbands, headbands everywhere. Long hair or short, metallic or baubled — I have a feeling this stylish accessory will be sticking around for awhile. Oh headband, you've really got a hold on us.

It seems like the holidays keep getting bumped up earlier with each passing year. (Target's holiday section was out in full force last week.) But when Chanel does it, somehow I'm ready to do eggnog shots if it means I'll get to play with new beauty goodies.

Mmm — Fall's just begun and I'm mad obsessed with the scents of the season. I've already started burning my spicy-smellin' candles, and my apartment is now a fragrant delight. (At least, it is when the cats haven't done their business.

As you know, it's the first day of Fall. That means colder weather, dryer air, and the impending cozy scents of cinnamon, pumpkin, maple, and apple. So, when do we eat?
