The <b>Thompson Hotel</b> group acquired Miami's <b>Hotel Victor</b> this week. A renovation will be finished early next year; but their management will take over immediately. If you've walked down Ocean Drive in the past decade, there's a good chance you've been to one of their parties at Hotel Victor. We sure have. The Art Deco hotel has 90 rooms most with ocean views and generous sized bathrooms and terraces. It also has a gorg infinity pool, 6,000 square foot spa, and multiple restaurants and lounges. We looked forward to seeing what Thompson can do to improve this already cool corner of South Beach.The Jet Set Girlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01417656107717732360noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352686331544955645.post-36847399254405349332011-09-22T06:48:00.002-04:002011-09-22T06:48:00.592-04:00Bobbi Brown Party to Go Palette<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikrjc-HlCHYxsI6QU8LEh9SSDJPyS8cZRoR9uE3Vb1f3KiKDLGlZiwO2QiALlFDgLTMptWyZ9hx5bsQxslL7wzdxg6jvWx7n3GtPVkOrKScpCFD64xYBXKX7h34G97Zw-_eohMjMme0_M/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-09-21+at+6.47.30+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Bobbi Brown Party to Go Palette" border="0" height="221" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikrjc-HlCHYxsI6QU8LEh9SSDJPyS8cZRoR9uE3Vb1f3KiKDLGlZiwO2QiALlFDgLTMptWyZ9hx5bsQxslL7wzdxg6jvWx7n3GtPVkOrKScpCFD64xYBXKX7h34G97Zw-_eohMjMme0_M/s320/Screen+shot+2011-09-21+at+6.47.30+AM.png" width="320" /></a></div><br />

To celebrate its 40th anniversary, Starbucks—who knew they were around for that long?—partnered with designers Sophie Theallet, Alexander Wang and Billy Reid on a limited edition T-shirt to benefit the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund.<br />
<br />
No surprise, Sophie Theallet's global themed T-shirt (above) is our favorite. It also has a cute ribbon tie back.<br />

I recently did something I never thought I would do the other day: contoured my face. I was inspired to try it on my own, after serving as a model for the Get the Mally Glow kit at a blogger breakfast with Mally last week. (That's Mally working her magic on me. Thanks to <a href="http://www.oldergirlbeauty.com/">OlderGirlBeauty</a> for the photo!)<br />
<br />
The kit comes with Perfect Prep Primer in Glow and the Shimmer Shape and Glow compact. One of the things I love best about it is that it comes with foolproof instructions, so even if you don't have Mally there to demonstrate personally how to use the product, it's still like she's there whispering in your ear.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGuk8Cl978hEyznwz0EfX72TXx-3o_UJLorL1fUdwHxJJHiKsMIoYIcFiVB-08y1YZX0ecd35C5RP7f73j8cvU55PMY20YO5p2XkM-xTQcLU8qBySSo2EGIiRcFiaCYDZw-VR_cxAD14g/s1600/110420_GetTheMallyGlow_Kit14_003_WithBag_detail.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGuk8Cl978hEyznwz0EfX72TXx-3o_UJLorL1fUdwHxJJHiKsMIoYIcFiVB-08y1YZX0ecd35C5RP7f73j8cvU55PMY20YO5p2XkM-xTQcLU8qBySSo2EGIiRcFiaCYDZw-VR_cxAD14g/s1600/110420_GetTheMallyGlow_Kit14_003_WithBag_detail.jpg" /></a></div><br />
The Perfect Prep Primer in Glow gives you that flawless canvas for your foundation. Word of warning: a little goes a long way. I would actually prefer if this came in a tube instead of the jar, because I think that would help me use less and keep the product more sanitary.<br />
<br />
On to the Shimmer, Shape and Glow. As Mally says in her instructions, apply the shimmer on the tips of your cheekbones to just under your temples for an "Instant eye lift!" Next, use the shape to contour your cheekbones. To figure out where, make a kissy face and brush it <i>under</i> your cheekbones. Finish with a pop of blush so you look like you "Just got busy with Johnny Depp," according to Mally.<br />
<br />
Having never had the pleasure of getting busy with Johnny and not knowing anyone who has, I can't vouch for that last part. But I can tell you, the kit did give my face more definition, my skin looked flawless and it's super easy to use. Thanks, Mally!<br />

This attactive shower curtain from <b>Ballard Designs </b>is a good buy, whether you're an Anglophile or just want something to remind you of your last trip to London.

Leah Ketcham was inspired to start the <a href="http://www.krickette.com/" target="blank">Krickette</a> line of handbags after a trip to India in 2009—you can see the influence in her whimsical, colorful bags. The bags also give back: some of the line is made in Los Angeles and the textiles and adornments are sourced from global charitable community groups in foreign lands. You just know Leah's going to have a unique carry on bag. Here's what she travels with:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">What does your carry on bag look like?</span> <br />
<br />
I use the Krickette carry-on bag, It is out of this world cool, very colorful and a real eye-catcher. Crazy fun color combinations and bright colors in the blue and sand versions. Not for the tame hearted! The pink version is feminine with flower patterned embroidery. The pompom tassel embellishment is fun and whimsical.<br />

<div style="color: red;">What are some of your fave beauty products for traveling? </div>I am low maintenance when it comes to travel beauty products: My key items are: drinking water, Burt’s Bees Lip Shimmer, Purel Deep cleaning hand sanitizer wipes and eye drops. I typically don’t wear make-up on flights and just wear a lot of moisturizer and eye cream.<br />
<br />
<div style="color: red;">What type of sweater or wrap do you wear? </div>My girlfriend represents the Magaschoni line. I have several cashmere wraps in fun colors. I also wear Seaton Boyfriend sweaters. Both of which are super cozy and warm.<br />

<div style="color: red;">What do you like to read on the plane? </div>I try to catch up on several pounds of magazines that pile up waiting for a “rainy day” or “trip”. I also use the plane ride to get a lot of work done (e.g., contracts, financials, etc.).<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="color: red;">What type of music do you listen to on the plane? </div>I usually don’t listen to music. I save that for working out. If I listen to anything on the plane, it is a movie.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="color: red;">What tech gadgets do you use when on the plane? </div>I’m a “PC person” but, when I travel I rely on my Mac Book Air.<br />

Ian Schrager's redo of the Ambassador Hotel in Chicago previewed this week. <a href="http://www.publichotels.com/chicago" target="blank">Public</a> is a new line and concept of hotels that Schrager envisions delivers luxury service and amenities to the masses. Public doesn't scrimp on style and there won't be frustrating charges like $5 Hershey bars and $20 pots of coffee. Schrager believes people are "sick of slick" and want a return to value and quality in the hotels they frequent.<br />
<br />
The existing Pump Room restaurant was also reworked by chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten with a farm to table approach and service at all meal times. At night the Pump Room turns into a glam 30's/40's supper club.<br />
<br />
Preview rates start around $150 per night. The grand opening is slated for October.<br />

<br />
Finally! L.A's famed Drybar is opening in New York tomorrow! The salon offers $40 blowouts—it doesn't matter what length your hair is or if you curl it or flat iron it—it's still gonna be $40.<br />
<br />
I attended an editor's preview earlier this week. The salon is gorgeous—clean and bright with accents of yellow. You chose from a photo menu of blowouts, including Straight Up (straight hair), Southern Comfort (lots of volume) and Mai Tai (beachy waves). <br />
<br />
A few of the things I love about the salon:<br />
<ul><li>It's open at 7 a.m. on weekdays so you can get a day of blowout before an important meeting. </li>
<li>It's open 7 days a week, so you're not stuck on a Monday with bad hair.</li>
<li>It has iPod docking stations.</li>
<li>You can book appointments online. </li>
<li>They show fun movies. While I was there, <i>Bride Wars</i> and <i>Mean Girls</i> were on.</li>
</ul><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnnDkVlf2tcRS-NepG_BlYAHUv52kgkzAQ_4rI9LcD6VsY-cTEMUgVbZvNHbk_T3CL3J92gNa5Qk-HK5pYLxf0J8ABPrLnXj1v7ySPmVSo6cWu2b8L2kTnaltYNtjgB-KC5RDi83wNEaM/s1600/IMG_0330.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnnDkVlf2tcRS-NepG_BlYAHUv52kgkzAQ_4rI9LcD6VsY-cTEMUgVbZvNHbk_T3CL3J92gNa5Qk-HK5pYLxf0J8ABPrLnXj1v7ySPmVSo6cWu2b8L2kTnaltYNtjgB-KC5RDi83wNEaM/s320/IMG_0330.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><ul><li>Packages are available.

My only complaint: While my stylist was adorable and sweet and gave me an amazing blowout, he was a bit inexperienced. The blowout took longer than an hour and he made small mistakes like getting the blow dryer cord tangled, but I'm sure with time those kinks will be worked out. After all, DryBar's first official day open is tomorrow. <br />

Who doesn't want longer, fuller lashes? However, the thought of adding another step to our routine in the morning, stops us from using a lash enhancer every day. Try <b>Kate Somerville's Lash-Enhancing Eye-Makeup Remover</b>. It takes off even the trickiest waterproof mascara, leaves behind a lash enhancer, and isn't oily. It even has a special ingredient to combat dark circles and puffiness. Now that's a multi-tasker we can get behind!<br />

Bobbi Brown is the latest to be influenced by the <a href="http://thejetsetgirls.blogspot.com/2010/01/top-ten-destinations-to-visit-in-2010.html" target="blank">Moroccan resurgence</a>—she created her fall line Marrakesh Chic after a trip to the country with her husband a few years ago. "It was such an amazing trip and I was so inspired by so much that I saw there, especially the incredible rich earthy colors that dominated the cityscapes and the rural vistas that we traveled through," she said in a press release. "As soon as I got home, I started developing ideas for a seasonal collection featuring a new eye shadow, based on what I had seen and experienced there."<br />

Here's something exciting coming out of fashion week that all of us can afford: the new Christian Siriano for Payless Gold line of shoes for spring 2012.<br />
<br />

According to the press release, <i>"[Christian's] runway styles are heavily inspired by the textures and colors from exotic underwater specimens found in Bali, Honduras, and Belize. The shoes uniquely fuse these tropical influences into eight key styles hitting the runway today, translating the mysterious nature of these creatures into colorful, intricate designs."</i><br />

It must be all the rain on the east coast; but we're craving a getaway to Palm Springs. <a href="http://www.acehotel.com/palmsprings" target="blank">The Ace Hotel and Swim Club</a> is the perfect spot to hang with the cool kids in town. The hotel replaced an old Howard Johnson's and added all the "Ace" touches like dog-friendly rooms, earth-friendly paints and materials, a sustainable kitchen restaurant in the old "Denny's," music spun by celeb dj's, communal fireplaces, WiFi, Rudy's Barbershop toiletries and a retro pool scene. Some of the rooms have vintage record players and albums. You won't have to go out for a good time because the Amigo Room Bar lights up at night with tasty artisan cocktails and the pool has a dj scene on Sundays. If you're feeling adventurous, you can take a day trip to the Joshua Tree. We found a king room for only $109 with views of the mountains. The prices go up from there. Who's in?<br />

The sun is finally shining in New York, which can only mean one thing: It's time to shop! The city (and others around the world) is gearing up for Fashion's Night Out tonight. Still not sure where to go? <a href="http://nymag.com/daily/fashion/2011/09/fashions_night_out_2011_guide.html">New York Magazine</a> has a handy guide divided by what your main objective is tonight. It helps you find the celebs (Justin Beiber at Dolce and Gabbanna!), free food (Mr. Softee at Vera Wang) or beauty must haves (Essie Manis at the <i>Teen Vogue</i> Bleecker Street block party).<br />
<br />
As for us? We'll be hanging at the chicest vintage store we know <a href="http://alittlewicked.com/">A Little Wicked</a>, where the Moreno sisters are the only draw we need!<br />

Designer<b> Elie Saab</b> created his first fragrance and it's already found a coveted spot on my dresser. It has a soft floral top note from orange blossom and jasmine and a cedar wood and patchouli finish making it a perfect transition to fall fragrance. We also spotted this on our girlfriend Shelly's vanity before her wedding. It's that special!

There may be a backlash over retouching photos in the print magazines and in advertisements, but we're not above tweaking our own photos a bit. After all, who knows when an ex-boyfriend is going to stumble on your Facebook page?<br />
<br />
We recently discovered <a href="http://Fotoflexer.com/">Fotoflexer.com</a> that not only allows you to remove red eyes from photos, but you can also erase pimples, zap wrinkles and even make your under eye circles vanish (If only there were a foolproof beauty product that would do this all for us!).<br />
<br />
You can also do traditional editing such as cropping and fix bad lighting. Try it out for yourself, <i>before</i> you post all those photos from your summer trips!<br />
