Lena Dunham lands the latest cover of Glamour Magazine, and she looks great! It’s not nearly as photoshopped as her recent cover of Vogue, which I find refreshing. She’s proud of her body, why not highlight her natural body, and not make her look like someone she’s not? I think the pictures and styling are great, and it’s one of the better photoshoots I’ve seen of her.

On Woody Allen: “I find the most recent revelations about his life really challenging. I hated that Mia Farrow had been bullied because the man she was [splitting up with] was the most powerful cultural figure in New York and therefore nobody wanted to look at his behaviour. I’m grateful to Dylan Farrow for her bravery in speaking out. I’m disappointed that Woody Allen thought discussing his ex’s sexual history and shaming her was an effective strategy in arguing his innocence.”

On her heroes: “I think I want my heroes to embody values I can agree with in their work and life.”

‘Girls’ helped her love her own body: “I think I radicalized my relationship to my own body in order to accept it. To make my body a prop in my work gave it a value I didn’t feel it had before. At the Golden Globes I had a little bit of fat bubbling over, but I love how that looks. It looks so bountiful. It reminded me of corset dramas. They’ll be a point – maybe when I’m pregnant or when I have kids – when I just want to have my body for myself.”

On her boyfriend of two years, Jack Antonoff: “I remember talking with him on our first date and him being like ‘God, all the articles about your nudity on the show are such bulls—t’. I think women are conditioned to stand by their man and watch them make it to the top, but most men never believe the person they get into a relationship with is going to rise any higher than she was when they met. It takes a very special, evolved person to be able to deal with change within a relationship.”

On her good friend Taylor Swift: “She helps me be stronger and make better decisions.”

The new SJP shoe line has finally arrived! The line doesn’t excite me as much as I hoped, but there are a few gorgeous shoes. From the early reviews I am reading, some of the shoes are amazing and somehow are as comfortable as they are cute.! Definitely need to hit Nordy’s and check these out in person.

Will you be buying anything from the SJP collection?

A Nordstrom exclusive: Sarah Jessica Parker shares the insights and inspirations behind her new line of polished shoes, handbags and apparel.

A few of her new shoes:

SJP ‘Diana’ Pump $365
“A super flattering, simple shoe that is suitable for any day and any woman—I confess it was named after Lady Diana.”
-Sarah Jessica Parker

An asymmetrical mary-jane strap lends a sophisticated twist to a stunning pointy-toe pump in mirror-shine patent.

SJP ‘Bobbie’ Sandal $365
“Can’t wait for spring!”
-Sarah Jessica Parker

Sweet scalloping lends playful, feminine appeal to a graceful suede sandal lifted by a slender heel.

SJP ‘Maud’ Sandal $375
“I’m so thrilled with the way this shoe developed. It’s no secret this shoe is inspired by the great Maud Frizon. I imagine so many nights spent in this fun, flirty style; the colors demand to be seen and the shoe is longing for an adventure. I love the idea of using multiple colors, simple colors, to create a more unique neutral. It’s a shoe that can go with such a variety of colors and even patterns. And I’m so pleased with how soft the weave feels on the foot.”
-Sarah Jessica Parker

A multihued profusion of delicately interwoven strips lends fashionable finesse to the peep toe of a breezy sandal with a slim, wraparound ankle strap

The new SJP Collection is available in Nordstrom stores and online at shop.nordstrom.com.

Check out these cool BIOBLISS patches I just had the chance to review. They make them for both crow’s feet and the forehead. The science  behind these little patches is they use ion technology, like a micro-current that pushes the anti-wrinkle ingredients (like peptides and hyaluronic acid) deeper into the skin.

You just wash and dry your face, take the patches out of their individual packages and push them firmly onto the skin. They start working on pushing ingredients into your skin right away and you can wear them up to 12 hours. The patches were easy to apply and stay put, I left them on for 2 hours while I painted my nails and watched TV.

I was expecting to feel the micro current or something happening but they are so gentle I forgot they were there. I tried a single use packet and in just one use I saw a big difference in my crows feet. These are meant to be used once a week to deliver the best results. I would be interested to see how they could lessen the look of my deep lines with repeated use.  Definitely a cool technology and they work great for quick results. 

BIOBLISS is “Taking Beauty Deeper” with a new level of age correcting skin care. The BIOBLISS Micro-Current Anti-Wrinkle Patch System transforms the most age apparent zones of the face to a revitalized, youthful state with a reservoir of hydration, powerful peptides to restore smoothness and tone, and protective antioxidant shields for a return to younger looking and acting skin like never before.

The simple-to-use BIOBLISS Anti-Wrinkle Patch System is wireless, pain-free, hassle-free and easily disposable after each application. Four targeted skin care treatments complement the Anti-Wrinkle Patch System to cleanse, exfoliate, hydrate and extend the patch effects.

In a recent Clinical Study, 89% of participants saw immediate results after their first 30-minute anti-wrinkle patch application. 100% saw an improvement in fine lines and wrinkles after four weeks. 93% of women in Consumer and Dermatologist Clinical studies reported that BIOBLISS is more effective at reducing their wrinkles than their current anti-wrinkle product.

BIOBLISS offers a more authentic way to treat your skin by insuring that the latest anti-aging ingredients are delivered where your skin needs them most for optimal wrinkle reducing results.

Inside the Box:

Cailyn Tinted Lip Balm in Big Apple: Full Size!!! $19.00 value
I am new to this brand but I love it. The red color is gorgeous and I love how easy it is to apply with the brush. The product is listed as a balm but I would say its more a stain as the color lasts all day.

Sheswai Nail Lacquer: Full Size!!! $16 value: This is by far one of my favorite nail polish lines I have tried. The brush makes it super easy to apply without making a mess. And even better it doesn’t chip. I am lucky to go a whole day without chipping my polish, usually its within the first hours of application. With Sheswai polish I made it Monday to Friday before it started chipping! I will be ordering more.

Pur-lisse Pur-Delicate Gentle Soymilk Cleanser: Deluxe Sampe size $12.65 Value: At 1.7 oz, this is a very generous sample. I love this cleanser its super gentle and doesn’t irritate my skin. This is a great sample size for my travel bag.

Manna Kadar Sheer Glow Shimmer Lotion: Deluxe Sample size $8.00 value: A really great shimmer lotion it goes on light and adds the perfect glow to my cheekbones.

Racinne Ultimate Aqua Blanc Brightening Mask: 3 foil packets with a $5.00 value: This is on the list for my Friday night spa night. I can’t wait to see how it works.
