- Emmy Awards RED Carpet WINNER -

As I browse the web for some of the most delightful looks from yesterdays 65th Primetime Emmy Awards...I became distracted by this BEAUTIFUL creature. 

.KATHARINE MCPHEE.

Walking the red carpet at this years 65th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards, the Sunday prior. Adorned in the following perfection. 

Gown - Georges Hobeika Spring 2013 Couture 

Earrings - Norman Silverman

Clutch - Ferragamo

Rings - DeMarco and Norman Silverman

Shoes - Casadei

To complete her look, Katharine's team went with a deep side part and textured waves, on her shoulder length tresses. GREAT look to inquire about at your next hair appointment!

All while mixing a PERFECTED Vamp Red Lip with a delicately blended eyeshadow application & eyebrows to live by!

This is 100% PERFECTION!

Marilyn Monroe for MAC

With some of my dear girls in tow, we conquered the beautiful crowd at MAC on Robson 

last evening to see the buzz (not the Sara Rose type) on their latest release!

Champagne flowing,

makeup applications at every corner

& 

a swarm of MAC goers from every corner of Vancouver.

Well done MAC on a great evening & some more wonderful products.

“This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth.

 But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your frends - 

they'll act like 

it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - 

they're your true best friends. 

Don't let go of them. 

Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. 

As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - 
actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because 
if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole 
and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. 
Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? 
So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, 
because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”
― Marilyn Monroe

Bat those LASHES

Purchasing makeup has always had its perks to me, even since I was a young child. I remember my Aunt giving me her free bags with testers in it from Lancome, ummm dress up HEAVEN. I thought to myself, WOW when you grow up you get free goodie bags by just buying a perfume...now that's cool..you don't even have to attend a party!?! Well, now that I'm cool enough to purchase makeup, with a purpose, I get the goodies too! And thanks to Sephora, at my recent shop/splurge/IT'S FOR WORK I promise, I came across my new mascara of the moment.

My mini mascara tester that Sephora gave me for FREE has now got me addicted! Make Up For Ever's Smoky Lash is an amazingly ultra-pigmented, lengthening & volume enhancing mascara. It is (as far as I'm aware & google can tell me) is a Sephora exclusive product from Make Up For Ever. To purchase a regular size tube it goes for $25, which I would say is about an average price for a good mascara...smack dab between my FAV MAC False Lash & Lancome Hypnose.

Hopefully this helps some of you on a hunt for a new VOLUME building, LASH batting, Smoky eye mascara.

NYFW...I LUST©

Two NYFW seasons down and missing this one : (
   There will be more & until then I watch the trends & find some FAVS!
Just as I was Googling and browsing through Vogue.com tonight watching some videos I came across Tory Burch Spring 2013 show
                                                   hair & makeup.
      I LUST©

The clothes were somewhat in my eye of style but the team did well in completing the whole look. 
     Fishtail pigtails..yes please...(When will my hair every grow long enough) mixed with the 
fabulous no-makeup makeup look. Just delightful. 
But the Tory Burch collection is obviously just one of many stunning designers showing this season.
       Who's one of your FAV'S?
 Do you spot some of the upcoming trends?

Let's get CREATIVE

Random creative people gathering is largely one of my FAVORITE things to do.

Back to SCHOOL I go

You read correctly. I'm going back to school....not Cali (soon though). The Makeup Show is in Vancouver this weekend & I'm ready for knowledge!


James Vincent an extremely knowledgeable, talented, reputable & amazing artist, is today's teacher (SO EXCITED). I had the pleasure of getting to work with James on his Inglot team during NYFW (New York Fashion Week...do I even need to do this?) this past September 2011 and the experience was unbelievable. Even though I have been through school, it is always good to keep yourself up to date & well versed in whatever you may be up too.

Keep posted on the site & I will update later with some new tricks &/or treats from todays "Red Carpet Beauty" class.

Sunday FUNDAY could not be better!

Tweet my Tuesday

 

It's been just over a week now since I decided to start this blogging escapade & thus far its coming along quite well for me. What more could I ask for than an outlet to release all of my favorite finds & info on products & peeps. Especially with the continuous support of my amazing friends, such as those fabulous faces above!

Thus leading us into Twitter Tuesday! Beginning with my favorite designer, dear friend & fellow Canadian, gorgeous Stacey Clark. Stacey sent some lovn my way this past week through Odilon...

Odilon - "awesome blog Sara! @SaraRoseBuzz @JessicaTrentPR http://www.sararosebuzz.blogspot.ca/ "

If you haven't seen the Odilon collection before.....it's a MUST. The attention to detail & hands on work that is put into this line truly amazes me. I won't say anymore because there are too many things to say about Stacey & her vastly growing line. I'm saving my shpeal for a Ode to Odilon day. (Is it odd that while typing an "Ode to Odilon" in my mind Celine Dion started singing my Heart Will Go On?) Thanks Stacey & Odilon team for the amazing support! xo

Cindy Busby - "PLEASE! Read, Love, and be Inspired by my amazing friend @SaraRoseBuzz - her new blog is a MUST! http://www.sararosebuzz.blogspot.ca/ "

Another amazingly talented friend, actress, model & woman, Cindy Busby. Cindy & I have worked together twice now! The picture above (Sara Rose hair, makeup & styling) was from the first shoot we did & if you check Cindy's avi on twitter or through my Facebook  page that was our second! To have the support of such a talented Canadian actress truly means a lot to me. Thanks Cindy!! xo

Thank you to everyone! How did Twitter Tuesday turn into an overjoyed Thank You Speech? So Canadian of me! Anyway I'll get back to the program shortly for now this is where my brain led me so I took it. Hope you enjoyed!

To BOLD or not to BOLD...that is MY question?!

 

Through thick and thin your brows are there for you. If you are someone who likes to mix up your looks every now & then...you don't have to go as far as this pastel colored hair trend, just fill in your brows!

Thank you to one of my dearest, craziest & one of the funniest gyals I know Emma Doux  for introducing me to the Smashbox Browtech as well as the Smashbox Brow Brush #12. The application is simple, with the powder & wax right there for you, you can create the perfect dimensions for your brows.  For the bold brow try NO harsh lines, use the brow comb to brush out your brows (spray hairspray on your brow comb & use that to brush out your brows for an all day long lasting look) and follow through with filling in your brows with small strokes.

If your not into this & want to shoot for a "perfect" brow I came across this article from Elle in 2010 that reviews facial features & details & ways to assist you in shaping your brows for that perfect Hollywood arch!

To BOLD or not to BOLD that is the question!?

...tantalizing my tangerine...

Long lasting Yves Saint Laurent lip.

Who went through with a thought of "Tantalizing Tangerine" today. The lip brightens your day...I promise!

Marc Jacobs...MAKEUP

Everything this man has created, thus far, has definitely caught the consumers eye. He is taking the next step & creating a cosmetics line to be released in Sephora stores near you.

I have a feeling his creative but chic look will flow through onto his palettes, packaging & color selection as well. With the success of everything he sells from clothing, fragrances to accessories no doubt in my mind that this will be another success to add to Marc Jacobs list.

Can't wait to try some products out!
