Favorite Summer Lipstick: Dolce&Gabbana Classic Cream Lipstick

Ever since I've tried Dolce&Gabbana Classic Cream Lipsticks this summer, I've been hooked on the soft, creamy and velvety coverage. The luxurious formulation provides bold color, gliding along the lips with a moisturizing, color-consistent application. The concentration of the pigments are enriched by the classic shades with colors that rich, even and long-lasting.

Dolce&Gabbanna launched 20 new Classic Cream Lipstick ($33) colors for Spring 2014, for a total of 42 shades in the palette. The lipstick colors are divided into six categories  - reds, oranges, purples, corals, pinks, and nudes, to help you choose your perfect shade. Each Classic Cream Lipstick is inspired by different roses, from classic colors and everyday nudes, to ultra-modern shades and striking hues. The delicate Mandorla is inspired by the Alchemist Rose, the bold Star by the Black Rose, and the dazzling Sublime by the Calizia Rose. Eleven of the new colors is sold exclusively at the Dolce&Gabbana Make Up counters at the brands flagship stores.

Studded Boots from Harley-Davidson Footwear

One of the newest styles from Harley-Davidson Footwear is the Kellyn Performance Boot. I love studded details, especially on boots, so this particular pair immediately caught my eye when I previewed the new spring/summer collection. It's the type of boot that can be paired with anything, from a dress or skirt to leggings or jeans. These full grain leather boots are built for riding, and with a 2" heel and full length cushion shock lining, they are also comfortable for trekking around the city. 

Harley-Davidson's performance boots have been infusing more hardware such as metal studs, and buckle accents for an edgy look. Some other new performance styles include the Chryse and Ashana boots. I've just gotten a glimpse at some of the new Harley-Davidson performance and lifestyle boots for fall and I can't wait! More hardware and weathered leathers to look forward to!
