JGB’s Goodies of the Day: Fashion and Beauty

Much time has passed since my last countdown list of products worthy of a blog post, but fans deserve the very best, so here we go!

FRAGRANCE

Chanel (Fragrance): Responsible for concocting the most sought-after, luxuriously timeless aromas is the Chanel Perfumery.

CHANEL (Gardenia: eau de toilette)
CHANEL (Gardenia: eau de toilette)

Chanel (Les Exclusifs: Gardenia eau de toilette): The undeniably lush fragrance of Gardenia is both crisp and buttery with subtle hints of coconut and vanilla.

CHANEL (Gardenia: parfum)
CHANEL (Gardenia: parfum)

Chanel (Les Exclusif: Gardenia Parfum): Not merely another higher concentration, the dynamics of this scent is modified to ensure a significantly individualistic experience. Coconut and vanilla are absent and greens are intensely magnified and robust, yet surprisingly gentle to wear.

CHANEL (Gardenia: parfum) (Economy Size)

Chanel (Les Grands Extraits: Les Exclusifs: Gardenia Parfum) [LIMITED EDITION]: If Gardenia truly captures your inner senses, this is but a fraction of what you would spend overtime.

CHANEL (Beige: eau de toilette)
CHANEL (Beige: eau de toilette)

Chanel (Les Exclusif: Beige eau de toilette): Gardenia fans will definitely enjoy the strikingly similar fragrance of Beige. Entitled “Beige” based on Coco Chanel’s favorite color, combines white petals, yellow-gold flowers and honey with a distinct aroma of citrus orange.

Dior (Hypnotic Poison)
Dior (Hypnotic Poison)

Christian Dior (Hypnotic Poison): Like Queen Ravenna (from Snow White and the Huntsman), this scent is dangerously seductive. Hypnotic Poison is intoxicatingly delicious, fragrantly potent with notes of fruit and spice.

NAIL COLOR

Chanel (Nail Color: Eastern Light)
Chanel (Nail Color: Eastern Light)

Chanel (Les Vernis: Eastern Light) [LIMITED EDITION]: Be as daring as you want in this intensely rich, creamy white color. Enhance this look with wardrobe colors in neon, color-blocking or gothic chic.

HAIR COLOR

Ombre hair color is all the craze and most who try it go the classical route; from dark to light, but the new ombre is just the opposite. Ombre from light to dark is not only refreshingly fun, it’s also a reminder that Terri Nunn of the music group Berlin will reign forever.

ACCESSORIES

Roberto Cavalli (Necklace)
Roberto Cavalli (Necklace)

Roberto Cavalli (Ruthenium-Plated Swarovski Crystal Flamingo Necklace): A call to the Amazon Rain Forest in this wildly fanciful chunky chocker, hand painted over precious metal with Swarovski-crystal embellishments. Use this expressional piece to spruce anything from a solid blouse or dress, blazer or cropped jacket, denim or trouser pants, and leather, canvas or patent shoes.

JACKETS

Balmain (Blazer)
Balmain (Blazer)

Balmain (Stripe Satin Blazer): Olivier Rousteing brings back the casual coolness of the 80’s in a Beetlejuice inspired blazer. During the weekend, pair over your favorite tank tops, t-shirts, denim and leather boots. For the workplace, use as your alternate go-to blazer with your Oxford shoes, kitten heels or stilettos.

Lanvin (Jacket)
Lanvin (Jacket)

Lanvin (Frayed Tweed Jacket): For Spring 2013, sparkle like a Tiffany yellow diamond in a classically crafted Chanel-inspired jacket by LANVIN. This limitless jacket compliments sun dresses, shift dresses, denim and skinny trousers with anything from pointed flats, to espadrilles or bold patent heels.

COATS

TopShop (Coat)
TopShop (Coat)

TopShop (Oversized Textured Coat): The coat that keeps on giving, for a timeless appeal you can wear for years to come. Signature look would include a fresh face, tousled hair, a cotton rocker tee, knitted sweater, distressed jeans and a pair of Dr. Martens boots.
