    Due to more than one on-the-go mishap involving perfume spillage all over my purse's interior, I can't help but feel reluctant about bringing portable fragrances with me to refresh while I'm out and about. But what to do about fleeting scents that just don't seem to stick to my clothing long enough to last the busy day through? Enter Bloom Scented Flower Earrings -- cute, colorful daisy earrings made of paper, designed to be spritzed with your favorite scent and actually hold it way longer than your shirt or skin. Each pack comes with a pair of silver studs and 15 pairs of paper flowers of all sorts of colors that are bound to coordinate with any outfit. Just add a drop or spray of your favorite perfume and you'll be sure to smell pretty all day long!


    Price: $19 (including shipping)

    Hot In The Hive: Crescent Row Fragrances By Benefit

    Leave it up Benefit Cosmetics to come up with the cutest fragrance concept in existence! Based on a fashionable row of flats in Bath, England, and three individually posh tenants, the Crescent Row Fragrance collection features three unique scents, all in cocktail shaker-shaped bottles and cleverly boxed in packages that mimic the enviably chic little apartments adorning the street. With names like "Laugh With Me LeeLee," "My Place Or Yours Gina," and "Something About Sophia," each of the sassy scents lends itself to a different fashionista's imaginary personality, backstory, lifestyle, and signature fragrance. Not sure which one you love the most? Sephora even has an online personality quiz you can take to see which one suits you best! The packaging and Crescent Row concept is so cute, you might even be tempted to pack your bags and move in!


    Price: $36 each

    Lipsmacker Exfoliants and More Drugstore Bargain Beauty Bump-Ups!

    To look pretty on less cash, you could yoink your roommate's fancy conditioner and hope she doesn't notice. Or you could try out these drugstore and designer beauty bait-and-switches. Either way, you'll look so good only your stylist will know for sure what you did!


    1. Color formulas are generally the same among mascara products, so no need to spring for a department store version. Black is black at $7 or $20. But it is worth investing in a clean mascara wand or comb that you can use to separate your lashes before the cheaper one dries.


    2. Instead of giving yourself a spritz of pricey perfume, get a more subtle version of the scent all over your body. Spend less for the fragrance's body lotion or cream and blend with unscented generic-brand lotion.

    Dolce & Gabbana, one of the world's top luxury brands, has launched its much-anticipated cosmetics line for early next month. By adding this line, the company will now be a full-fledged beauty house and will be competing with other high-end make-up lines. Dolce & Gabbana already has a very successful fragrance line, so a cosmetics line was a natural next step. Stefano Gabbana stated, while being interviewed by WWD in his elaborately richly decorated drawing room of his office, that he and Domenico Dolce have wanted to do make-up for years now. It's a new direction unlike fragrance. The inspiration for the make-up is derived from the collections. "We see make-up as another thing for women, like a dress. We worked on the line like we worked on a clothing collection- you can change make-up like you change your clothes, depending on your mood," Gabbana added. The sources for inspiration are very familiar to Dolce & Gabbana and the colors are very rich and bold...
