Simply Vera Vera Wang Makeup Collection

The famous designer Vera Wang is launching this spring her own makeup products line exclusively for Kohl’s. The new collection will include 74 items
Since the focus has always been on highlighting one's natural beauty, the products are meant to protect the skin along with giving it a hint of color. That's why products like illuminating concealer or nourishing lip balms are natural additions to the collection. The price range for the new products is between $16.50 and $ 39.50, with the Lash Enhancing Serum being among the most expensive products from the new collection which is set to launch this April.

Alexander McQueen Resort 2012 Collection

A fusion of military details, Edwardian silhouettes, and the idea of "romantic utility" characterized Sarah Burton's Resort 2012 outing for Alexander McQueen. While staying true to plenty of classic McQueen elements — high necks, cinched waistlines, gold-embellished gowns — the collection also featured an injection of Burton's now-signature sense of softness. Corsetless tulle gowns, fitted lace dresses, and soft-ruffled peplums in elongated cuts portrayed a new, easier wearability. African-inspired leopard prints, colorful embroidery, and mirrored appliques added intrigue to the otherwise neutral palette of khaki, navy, ivory and black.

Wearing Shorts over tights trend

The shorts over tights trend is a lovely way to put together an outfit. These shorts become instantly chic and night-out appropriate when you pair them with accessories and either heels, knee lenght boots, thigh high boots or gladiators. They come in denim, tweed and velvet shorts and it is up to you to choose the type that you like and appropriate for your body type. This style can be dressed with a cute blouse, boyfriend jacket or blazer or a lovely fitting t-shirt.
You can add a pretty, dressy top, some black wedges, and an edgy pair of  earrings. You can also wear a pair of girly flats and complete the look with a cocktail ring if you are going out for a party or evening cocktail.

Dressing the long sleeved mini dress

When you think of a mini dress it's always one that is either short sleeved, sleeveless or tube like. But now we have the long sleeved mini dress. It's a lovely find that comes in various designs colors and even material. Wear with heels or even knee length boots that compliment or contrast with the color of the dress. Accessorize as you like. This look is for the bold who do not mind showing some leg, mostly adorned for evening events like cocktails. For daytime wear have it in bright colors.
The style is a great way to show off your figure without exposing too much skin.
