Beauty Alert: REVLON BRAND AMBASSADOR EMMA STONE AT 2014 SPIDER MAN 2 PREMIERE
REVLON Global Brand Ambassador Emma Stone attended the Spider Man 2 premiere on 27th evening in New York City wearing a Prada gown with a modernized 1970’s makeup look. Celebrity Makeup Artist, Rachel Goodwin, created a soft eye and luminous skin paired with a bold lip using the latest Revlon Collection.
“Overall we wanted to create a look that was very glamorous and modern but with a 1970’s twist. I definitely focused on luminous glowy skin and bold berry lips using the REVLON ColorBurst Balm Stain in Standout. The overall inspiration was heightened glamour but still very classic”.

I guess Demure and Provocateur are not launched in India.
Both these Lacquer Balms and the Matte Balms launched together..see the review and swatches of the Matte Balms HERE.
Revlon ColorBurst Lacquer Balms come in a beautiful glossy metallic packaging. These are glosses in the form of lip crayons..super glossy but still pigmented.
The composition of three butters Shea, Mango and Coconut make these super hydrating and moisturising..
They are quiet light in texture..you do not feel like you have applied anything on lips..feels like a lip balm. These are quiet pigmented..the swatches are just one swipe..and after the glossines fades away..the color stays for more hours..especially the deeper colors like Vivacious here.
These have the same peppermint smell like in Kissable Balm Stains and Matte Balms. All of the shades have super fine minute shimmer which is not even visible unless seen very very closely..but this helps giving the shades that glossiness and high shine.
L-R: Ingenue, Tease, Vivacious
145 Ingenue is a perfect MLBB shade for me..a nude brown..its an everyday shade.
130 Tease is a beautiful coral orange..it looks amazing on warm skin tone..my favorite of the 3..also wore it HERE.
120 Vivacious is a pretty rosy pink (None of those fuchsias or blue undertone pinks)
Here are the swatches..
T-B: Vivacious, Tease, Ingenue
And here are they on moi..
L-R: Ingenue, Tease, Vivacious
And an FOTD with Vivacious..
Pros:
1. Super glossy.
2. High pigmentation.
3. Moisturising.
4. Deeper colors stay longer.
5. Like the glossy packaging.
6. All 8 shades are quiet nice..there is one for everyone.
7. Feels quiet light on lips.
Cons:
1. Little expensive.
2. Not transfer proof.
3. Lighter colors don’t stay that longer.
Overall, I would say I like the light texture and glossines..and the shades too..all three and in fact all 8 are pretty and nice..and perfect for all occasions..the one like Ingenue works for your everyday wear, formal wear too..Tease is a must have according to me..my favorite of the three..it looks beautiful on warm skin tones like ours..Vivacious is a clean, pretty rosy pink..one of the natural pinks..that would look good on everyone..I recommend all three ! In fact Flirtatious, a nice deeper pink and Enticing, a pretty red, are also nice shades from this collection. If you are a red lover..or want to try reds..you can try something glossy and light like Enticing.

Which shades do you like ?? Any particular favorites ?
I am back with an OOTD..so crop tops are like so IN these days..and they are everywhere..at Forever 21, you will only see crop tops ! And the young girls these days are loving the trend..
Here in this outfit, I paired a leopard print crop top with a navy blue pencil skirt..and black ankle strap wedges and a crocodile print black bag.
Since the crop top was the main piece of attraction here and its high neck, I did not add any statement necklace..just some gold midi rings a hollow gold bracelet.
I am in loveee with these black ankle strap suede wedges..they are so comfy..I have danced 2 hrs in them ! I can literally live in them..and they look so chic <3 Also available in blue and white..
Some tips on wearing a crop top:
Pair it with pencil skirt/midi skirt/palazzos
Don’t wear it if you are apple shaped or have extra love handles
Show only a little bit of skin, if you are not too comfy
And if you are not comfy showing any skin, you can layer it over a tank/camisole (If you have seen my outfit on Instagram, I wore a striped crop top layered over a basic tank)
So yes, go and rock the crop top ! If you wear a crop top, do tag me on twitter or facebook or Instagram 🙂

Wedges: HERE
Skirt, Bag, Accessories: Romwe
On Lips: Revlon Lacquer Balm in Tease

Who Wore What: IIFA Press Con, Promotions, IIFA Rocks- 2014
So, the IIFA Awards 2014 events have begun..and this time its in Tampa Bay, USA. As we see what the celebs have been wearing at the airport, at the IIFA press conference, promotions all over the US, IIFA Rocks (The Fashion show by Manish Malhotra for Mijwan Society) and of course the main Awards as and when they happen.
For now, I have picked up few hits and misses from the pre-events for you guys..do let me know your thoughts..
1. Kareena Kapoor at the Press Conference
She wore Anand Kabra separates..monochrome does work here..but one thing that glams up the outfit totally is the Maheep Kapoor Statement Necklace..goes with the embroidery on the sleeves..she finished it with YSL sandals..the look works for her.
2. Vidya Balan at IIFA promotions in NY
Vidya Balan wore a Satya Paul checkered sari with an orange long jacket blouse..and Manish Arora Earrings from Amrapali collection..ok, so there have been two views on this..some like it, some hate it..For me, this look totally works..the bright orange totally pops the checkered monochrome..and though she has been wearing sarees always, this one is an Indo-western kinda fusion..which looks amazing in my opinion.
3. Priyanka Chopra at IIFA Promotions
PC wore this Dior outfit, Isharya earrings and Valentino pumps..orange again here..I like the pop of orange..dress is ok..But I hate that brown/wine lips..can’t PC just lose them ??!
4. Sonakshi Sinha at IIFA Promotions
Sonakshi wore this black DKNY LBD with cut-out accents, nude peep toes and Bansri earrings..she wore her hair in soft waves..very normal and average..
5. Nimrat Kaur at IIFA Rocks
Nimrat wore a neon orange strapless midi dress with nude pumps..ok this is very Barbie dollish ! But, she did manage to pull it off decently well.
6. Vaani Kapoor at IIFA Rocks
Vaani wore multi print high neck Diva’ni dress, metallic pumps and Eina Ahluwalia earrings. What was she thinking ? Its like..wayy too much going on !
7. Priyanka Chopra at IIFA Rocks
PC wore a Prabal Gurung sheath dress and matching pumps..and Jaipur gems jewellry..and and and she wore a bright lip ! Finally ! And that suits her so well..why is she stuck to browns :/
8. Yami Gautam at IIFA Rocks
Yami wore a Clover Canyon flared dress and Joe’s nude pumps with a see-through Kotur clutch..I loved the hair too..I think she looks cute..
9. Bipasha Basu at IIFA Rocks
Bips chose this Gaurav Gupta plunging neckline metallic gown and Farah Khan Ali earrings..and sported a faux bob..Though its way too metallic and I am not sure how would it look on anyone else (Except Deepika..she pulls off everything), Bips managed to carry it.
10. Aditi Rao Hydari at IIFA Rocks
Aditi chose this oxblood Narendra Kumar suit and berry sandals..she looks chic..
For those of you who don’t know what My Envy Box is..read HERE…and check out my Feb box HERE and March box HERE.
MRP: Rs.850/-
If you follow me on Instagram, you must have seen the pic of the products I got..
This time the box was a nice pink colored one..I loved it..always their boxes and packaging..though the cute pouch was missing this time..I guess coz 1-2 products were big in size..
There was also this 10% off coupon for the site www.monsoonandbeyond.com
Products I got:
Benefit Porefessional– 0.15 ml sachet
SkinYoga Almond Orange Face Scrub – 5.67g
Avene Sensitive White Whitening Essence -3ml
Za True White Day Cream– 5g
H2O+ Sea Moss Replenishing Body Wash– 60ml
Ok, so coming to the products..I only liked the SkinYoga and H2O+ samples..and I wanted to try out Za..so kinda that though 5g is too less..I am not a fan or endorser of Whitening products..so Avene Whitening Essence is not what I would really choose, if given an option..
And let me not talk about Benefit Porefessional..coz 0.15ml is too less for even one time use :/ Few boxes had Benefit Fake Up Concealer..and that was still a decent sample..I would have preferred if they would have sent some other brand’s deluxe sample rather than Benefit !
So the April box was a mixed bag..I liked only 2 products..I hope next month’s box has something better..I mean 0.15 or even 1-2 ml products should be avoided in my honest opinion ! ‘You know what I mean’ :p (Did you watch the Sonam Kapoor’s Koffee with Karan episode ? If not, go watch now 😀 )
This time its this super cute and totally spring pink roses skirt ! I so love it..I have paired it with a white shirt and pearl accessories (statement necklace and a stack of bracelets) and gold midi rings..and this chic nude and black T-strap heels..
Also if you remember my post about the new Lavie bags (see HERE), you must have seen this super amazing 4D tote bag !
The Reversible bag is a revolutionary one that gives you four different styles in one piece alone! The bag comes with a tablet sleeve inside which can double up as a sling using the additional straps that come along with the main bag. What’s more is that you can reverse the primary bag by unzipping the sides to give you a completely different bag! This is a must have investment for all the style divas out there as it gives you four designs in one bag!
INR 4240/-
Comes in 2 color options: Coral and Gold, Black and Aztec Print
Why is it a must have ?
Only thing you need to carry on a vacation
