GUEST POST: Her Late Night Cravings (Top Pick Thursdays – The Beauty Edition)

Morning dolls! So excited about today's guest post.  I met Jayme and Mendi a few months ago and we quickly formed this crazily close BFF relationship via blogging.  I have told them MANY times, but I'll say it again - I think they were my bff's from another life.  Wish they lived closer to TX!  I tune into their blog DAILY to read up on the LATEST and GREATEST "cravings," especially their great beauty tips. So, with the summer here, I hit them up for THEIR top picks for this season.  Here's what they had to say.  I can't wait to try that anti-frizz cream on my new hairstyle and the new Jennifer Aniston perfume! PLEASE check out their awesome blog HERE if you haven't already!  These ladies are sooo wonderful!

Hello from Richmond, VA!  This is Jayme and Mendi from Her Late Night Cravings and we are thrilled to be guest posting for our favorite blogger, Ms. La-La Linh.  Every time we see or say Linh’s name we can’t help but smile and think POSITIVITUDE.  Her “Top Pick Thursdays” posts are some of our favorites and they never fail to leave us with many fashion cravings…in fact, we are still dreaming about the ChristianLouboutin Electric Blue Block Platforms…ahhhhhhh.

If you aren’t familiar with Her Late Night Cravings then please allow us to introduce ourselves. We have a love for everything from fashion to beauty products to home décor to travel and much much more.  We blog about those loves and all about our “late night cravings.”  And while our blog is filled with a variety of topics we do have a special place in our hearts for all things beauty-related which leads us to “Top Pick Thursdays – The Beauty Edition.”   The products selected below are TEN Summer Must-Haves – between the two of us; we own all of these products so they are tried and true in our opinion.

Fashion Fridays: Summer Beauty Trends

Happy Friday my sweet friends! What's going down this weekend?  We will be celebrating ANOTHER birthday and a graduation. Yay! Can't wait for all the festivities, good cooking and fine wine I will be consuming.  I'm hoping the weather holds up so we can enjoy some outdoor activities with our doggies.

I was browsing Elle this morning and came across some GREAT summer beauty tips I had to share with you. With summer right around the corner, I can't wait to get moving on some of these trends.  My top picks? I would have to say the bold lashes, purple-rimmed eyes, and pink lips.

Good morning my lovelies! Today's trendy tip for Spring 2011 is pink lips. Whether your heart desires soft blush colors or bold hot pink, it's all the rave. And I love them all. Do you wear pink lipstick? What's your favorite brand and shade?  I'd love to hear.

Wedding Wednesdays: The Perfect Wedding Makeup

I'm like a chameleon - my makeup changes with my mood. That's why I love these looks!  They are all so different but equally delightful especially for weddings.  I opted for the glamour look with smoky eyes for my wedding, but can see myself wearing all of these looks sooner or later.  What's your look?

Barely There
All Glammed Up



Red Hot Lips
Bronzed Beauty
Smoky Eyes
