Idole d’Armani by Giorgio Armani Beauty
I was walking along 5th Avenue in New York City this evening. I had to stop my walk with great excitment after seeing a stunning window display at the Giorgio Armani store. It reminded me how much I adore Giorgio Armani’s latest perfume addition: I’dole d’Armani.
A sneak peek through the Giorgio Armani store on 5th Avenue New York City and to a gorgeous big bottle of Idole d’Armani
Idole d’Armani smells very elegant (Yes. Elegance has a scent!:) If you’re not into sweet, fruity, or floral perfumes then this exquisite woody fragrance might be the one for you. Idole d’Amani is perfect for a wedding day, special date, or just anytime you want to feel and look glamorous. It has a very distinct scent and stands apart from any other perfumes I know. Every woman should own one classic perfume, Idole d’Armani is a great place to start.
I always remember this quote by Giorgio Armani: “I have always carried with me an ideal of femininity – an irresistible combination of grace, beauty and independent spirit. IDOLE d’ARMANI is my tribute to this ideal, and to women everywhere.”

How To Cover Under-Eye Dark Circles & Get Radiant Eyes Like Olivia Wilde
Olivia Wilde was seen at the new Escada fragrance launch recently. I’m very drawn to Olivia’s green/blue eyes, they just pop out and are full of radiance. Her entire eye area looks bright and smooth. No under-eye dark circles are detected. Maybe this is a good sign that Olivia might be getting great nigh sleep.
But, some of us don’t always get good night sleep and suffer from dark under eye circles. If it’s not weekend yet to catch on sleep and on some R&R we can fake radiant eyes with my favorite under eye concealers by Giorgio Armani Beauty.
I use master corrector which is designed to target specific complexion concerns ($35) and high precision retouch which blurs imperfections, treats dark circles, and highlights the complexion ($35), both by by Giorgio Armani Beauty.
