Style Icon: Sophia Loren

Before Sophia Vergara, there was Sophia Loren. Sophia Loren is one of the most beautiful women in the world. She has a beautiful face, wonderful bone structure,perfectly arched eyebrows, full lips and curves for days.

Men obviously love her too. She placed sixth in Playboy's 100 Sexiest Women Of The Century feature!

I first saw Sophia in the 1995 movie, Grumpier Old Men where she played Walter Mattheus love interest, Maria Sophia Coletta Ragetti. And ever since then, she's been my style icon. From the glamorous dresses, sexy body fitting dresses, to the over sized floppy hats, and to her sky high heels.

At the age of 80, she is still just as beautiful as ever.

Everything you see I owe to spaghetti. -Sophia Loren

You have to enjoy life. Always be surrounded by people that you like, people who have a nice conversation. There are so many positive things to think about. -Sophia Loren

Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.

-Sophia Loren

You have to be born a sex symbol. You don't become one. If you're born with it, you'll have it even when you're 100 years old. -Sophia Loren

Sex appeal is fifty percent what you've got and fifty percent what people think you've got. -Sophia Loren

I think the quality of sexiness comes from within. It is something that is in you or it isn't and it really doesn't have much to do with breasts or thighs or the pout of your lips. -Sophia Loren

A woman's dress should be like a barbed-wire fence: serving its purpose without obstructing the view. -Sophia Loren

There is a Fountain of Youth: It is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of the people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age. -Sophia Loren

Of course I have many other classic Hollywood stars that I adore and consider style icons, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Grace Kelly and Vivien Leigh.

Who do you consider your classic Hollywood style icon?

Bare Minerals Beauty and the Beach Review

Last week I cashed in my beauty points on Sephora.com for this lovely sample set by bare minerals. The set is called Beauty and the Beach and it includes 5 pieces for a summer look. The set included marvelous moxie lip gloss in party starter, ready bronzer in the skinny dip, bare minerals ready blush in the natural high, all over face color in pure radiance and a sample of their lash domination mascara . So here is my take on the set: Here it is ladies! Marvelous Moxie lipgloss in Party Starter- this is a darker, coral and peach color. It was very sticky but it lasted for a few hours. It matched the blush perfectly. Ready Blush in The Natural High : This blush is a nice peachy pink color, it looks really shimmery in the package but looks more matte when applied. I loved that the color matched the gloss! Ready Bronzer in The Skinny Dip- I used this to contour and sculpt my face and it turned out beautiful. It matched my skin tone very nicely. Its very similar to t...

Best Fragrances of 2017

I am such a Perfume junkie. I change fragrances with clothes, moods, seasons and events. I've always felt like Perfume is a luxury that women should spoil their selves with. I love giving perfumes to my friends, family, co-workers, neighbors(you get the picture). And my favorite gift is always perfume(hint-hint)! Every department store visit, I head to the fragrance counter before I check out anything else to see what's new(Yes fragrance girl, you can give me a spritz). Ok, now that you get the idea of how deep my relationship with perfume is. 2017 has been a great year for the fragrance industry. I thought long and hard and I really can't remember trying a scent that I didn't like. From new releases from beloved favorite brands, Gucci Bloom, Victor & Rolf Magic, Tom Ford Oud Minerale to new fragrences from Diptyque Eau des Sens, Jo Malone London Jade Leaf Tea Cologne, and Atelier Cologne Café Tuberosa. It was a struggle to ...
