In search of reading the latest haps in our twitter and blogging community, one of our friends recently posted this news, inspired from the Women’s Wear Daily article, that we thought was too good we had to post it here, too!
The Twilight camp has teamed up with an LA beauty firm, the same folks who recently acquired DuWop AND Lola to name names, to launch a make up line, including 2 called Luna Twilight and Volutri Twilight. Our friend, Temptalia, brought up this WWD article to question ask a good point….would you support something so mainstream that has already made millions (possibly billions) of dollars off our our recession suffering nation? OK! Those were more our words and interpretation of her blog post, but it’s that’s what we got out of it.
On the other hand, when times are tough, don’t you think that it is the little things like Volturi make up that bring a smile to our face. It’s so random and fun that we temporarily forget that our economy might be suffering from this financial turmoil for decades more to come. So, why not put on a happy face and sometimes focus on the happy things to help get through those tough times?
We think it’s “worse” when mega Fashion Houses reach out of their realm and step into the make up world and use their established brand to expand industries. Why don’t they, those Mega Fashion Homes, do what they do best and design brilliant clothes, rather than think they can do it all. HA!
Funny I say this as my guilty pleasure lip gloss is made by Chanel. I only say guilty as no matter how strapped I am for cash, I always find a few shiny coins to refill my favorite Chanel Lip Glossimer Gloss (and now they want to introduce more delicious make up delights –
CRÈME GLOSS LUMIÈRE STYLO BRILLIANCE LEVRES BRUSH-ON CRÈME LIP COLOUR). Then, again, those Mega Fashion Houses could do what the House of Louis Vuitton did and re-brand their make up business. Did you know Louis Vuitton owns Sephora?
