All Hail to McQueen

Hot off the runway is the new limited edition collection for MAC. The line, designed by fashion icon Alexander McQueen, was used his New York Fashion Week show. I am sucker for fashion-inspired products. Especially for Lancome's Proenza Pink, used in Proenza Schouler spring 2007 runway presentation. This lippie which normally sells for around $20 is currently listed on Ebay for $85 (yikes!). Another must-have for my collection was Chanel's Black Satin nail polish.

After my reformer pilates class, I swung by ol' Nordys and did a bee-line to the MAC counter. The bright colors are beautiful, not what one would normally expect to see for a fall line.

I'm obsessed with the Paint Pots at the moment. They can be applied lightly for a sheer wash or heavy-handed for a more opaque look. Pharaoh and Otherworldly were my favorites in the collection. The New Vegas Skinfinish gave my cheeks a radiant gold glow without looking overdone. Next on my wanted list is the spring 2008 installment of Lancome's Pout-a-Porter collection: Thakoon Lipstick.
