Early morning flight to Charleston for my friend's wedding. A red lip can really wake up your look when you don't have time to get completely ready. I love Grace, a new shade from Jouer—it feels like a moisturizing balm, but the pay off is bold!

Once in NC, I stopped by Target (yay for suburban life!) and this is my haul. Not necessarily "needs" but so excited for my fun finds! Porcupine cards!?!
-
I had to document that my hair, styled by Jeff Chastain, looked the same 30 hours later!

M.A.C. makeup artists get us all ready for the big ceremony.

Perfect dinner—setting and meal!

Oscar Blandi's texture spray revives the volume at the roots after a long day. I am headed to meeting straight from my flight so taking the minute for a quick boost.

Grabbed coffee and these amazing muffins at Sarabeth’s!

I have a stash of products under my desk. These are the newest products I need to try or give away for others to report back on.

Inside BB Local. Try, learn, buy!

Before it's all over, had to stop for some tacos. This new place in Chelsea Market is always packed but it was definitely worth waiting!

Just discovered this newer color of Debborah Lippman—Cleopatra in New York. Couldn't resist picking it up (and planning on adding it to our site ASAP)!

Landed to rainy Paris and the best scrambled eggs I have ever had.
