Taylor Swift is infamous for two things: her long, blond mane and stealing your celebrity crush (sigh, Jake Gyllenhaal). Revenge has long been in order and now is the chance to get even with a little stealing of our own. Swift’s red carpet worthy ponytail at the Academy of Country Music Awards is versatile, on trend for spring, and best of all easy to copy on your own. This sleek ponytail easily goes from an average day at the office to a crazy night on the town and only takes a few tools you probably already own: styling lotion (a favorite: Living Proof’s styling cream), a blow dryer, and a flatiron. To fully commit to the T. Swift style, a clip-on bang is an optional but encouraged addition. 
With the launch of NARS satin lip pencils in 13 shades, nailing a bold, matte lip this spring just became a whole lot easier. With “high impact, intense color” and “convenient, easy and precise application”, the satin lip pencil comes in a variety of shades from dramatic red to subtle nude. The lip pencil tends to fall in between a lipstick and a lip stain, providing more color pay off than most lipsticks and lip glosses and a large tip for quick application. With wedding season approaching, I know I’ll be bringing this warm weatherproof matte lip magic wherever I go to keep my bold lip fresh.
