RIP Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse was found dead this afternoon.

i was obsessed with her when Rehab came out back in 2007. i even dressed up as her one halloween :( i guess we all saw it coming, especially after her train reck performance in Dubai this year but i really thought she'd recover at one point

Beauty Tips: Megan Fox

Megan Fox shares her top 5 beauty tips with Marie Claire UK

1. Raw Energy

"I eat five times a day and don't diet, but i do eat healthily - mostly raw and vegan food, with no dairy. It's not always possible with travel and filming, but I try. I also take supplements like silica and fish oil religiously."

2. Fresh Faced & Fabulous

"I try to keep my makeup fresh, clean and pretty on the red carpet. My signature look is red lipstick worn with plain eyes, so I apply a light foundation, then on my cheeks I use blush or sometimes the same lipstick that I'm wearing. Georgio Armani Rouge d'Armani Lipstick in 400, contrasts well with my pale complextion and dark hair."

3. Give Your Skin A Holiday

"Even when I'm working I don't like wearing too much makeup, but when I'm on my own I go bare-faced as I like to give my skin a rest."

4. Be A Bed Head

For a date night I go for beachy, natural bed hair. Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray gives my hair that wavy, thick texture"

5. Beauty Obsessions

"I have to wash my face every 12 hours and then moisturize. I only take showers as I don't like sitting in bath water. After my shower I moisturize with Grapeseed Oil from Whole Foods. It's a great moisturizer and lighter than olive oil.

What do you think? I agree with most of what she says and also love using my lipstick as cream blush when i don't have one that matches.

Makeup: Illamasqua's Skin Base Foundation

Illamasqua came out with a new foundation inspired by BB creams (beauty balms), which are popular in Asia. It has the same benefits excluding the whitening effect of the skin. They also removed the SPF which is perfect if you get your picture taken a lot.

The Ultimate 'Skin Realism' Foundation

Inspired by the cult Asian market Beauty Balm creams, Skin Base Foundation is a brand new, refined formula unlike anything on the UK market. Easily blendable, it effortlessly creates a perfect complexion, and like the entire Illamasqua foundation range, is undetectable in a professional HD environment. Suitable for all skin types, it smoothes, softens and conditions your skin whilst providing natural, buildable coverage.

I have no idea when and if it will be available in Dubai, but i love that their website has shade comparisons with other popular foundations such as Bobbi Brown, Nars, YSL, etc. so if you use any of the other brands, you can easily find your shade in Illamasqua, so ordering online won't be as risky.

* i'll definitely post a review of any new products i try

Handbag: Yves Saint Laurent

i'm can't wait to get my hands on the YSL Chyc Cabas.

i saw a photo of leighton meester carrying it a while back, and just now on my friend Noura's bbm display picture in a gorgeous shade of green!

i love everything about this bag, the shape, the colors, the textured leather,

and i especially love that they used the Y logo instead of YSL. because that's my initial ;$

shown above are my favorite colors: black, chocolate and blue

so far, it also comes in green like i mentioned, magenta and leopard print

as seen on charlize theron, leighton meester, kylie minogue, salma hayek & sienna miller

New TV Show: Million Dollar Decorators

If you're into interior design, celebrity homes or need ideas for redecorating your house

i highly recommend you watch this show! my sister told me how helpful it would be for me since i'm in the process of decorating and furnishing my house, and i'm obsessed so far!

"This series explores the world & personal lives of five LA-based designers. These tastemakers often exchange advice & horror stories, but are also forced to compete for the same top-tier clients & their endless budgets. Every decision & minute spent is crucial as the decorators rush to finish their projects on time & deliver the absolute perfection their clients expect"

Celebrity Wedding Post: Kate Moss

Dress by John Galliano

i love it when wedding dresses are off-white, champagne or even blush colored instead of bright white. and again, i love the veil!
