For the Guys : No Stones, Skulls, Fleur De Lis here -- JUST A CHEAP SHIRT (JACHS) hits Moderne

So, we've known for a while that we should expand our men's lines by adding something with out your skulls, crossbones, gargoyles, fleur de lis, and text. Something more simple, trendy yet subdued.... something with Plaid?
It's no mystery that plaids are hotter than ever right now - and JUST A CHEAP SHIRT is dominating the market. They have incredible color schemes, great fabrics and best of all perfect detailing. They pay attention to detail without going over board.

Just A Cheap Shirt is sold at major department stores, along with your specialty boutiques and Moderne is super thrilled to have some of JACHS hottest pieces.

Here are our faves:

If you aren't into plaid they have solids too:

Super popular and great for every guy - Slim fit so make sure you go a size up if you want it to fit loose.

PS- Ladies who love plaid- check out the womens stuff too - SO CUTE!
Definitely more than JUST A CHEAP SHIRT

Last Minute Halloween Costume Idea Perfect For Every Fashionista

Halloween is less than a week away! I know, I can't believe it's almost November!
Anyways, every year I either have friends or find myself searching for the best Halloween costume for a last minute Halloween party.

If you are anything like me, you don't like to recycle and re-wear your Halloween costume... but, you don't necessarily want to spend a fortune on an 1 night outfit.

Not to mention, with less than week to put together the killer look - you don't have time to do the necessary prep for a ''sexy'' costume.

Here's the BEST LAST MINUTE HALLOWEEN COSTUME for the fashionista:
RACHEL ZOE
With her signature style - and reality TV show popularity, this is bound to be a hit amongst all the fashionistas!


The picture pretty much sums up Rachel Zoe's style but here are the accent points:
-Fur (faux fur) vest
-Long tunic style top
-Wide leg dark denim
-Killer, monster platform heels - the higher the better (recycle the stripper shoes from last year's 'sexy' costume here)
-Huge cocktail ring on pointer finger
-Bangles galore - the more the merrier
-Lightly curled, tousled, messy hair down
-Long necklace
-Dark colored nails
-Double Venti Starbucks cups

and of course her key phrases aka ZOE-isms used through out the night:
"I Die"
"Ba- nanas" - emphasis on the BA
"Kills it"
"Shut it down"
"On a whole 'nother level"

Affordable, trendy, and best of all, you'll look amazing w/o having to be half naked or wearing some ridiculous blood make up.

PS- not to mention you can recycle this outfit for everyday wear... beware that Zoe-isms are uber catchy so you might continue the "Ba-nanas" and "Shut it down"...

Happy Halloween!


Other simple Fashionista costumes:
-Olsen Twins
-Victoria Beckham

Moderne Tries Posie Tint by Benefit Cosmetics

To our delight, we got a full bottle of Benefit Cosmetics POSIETINT in our swag bag from our Michael Stars event.

While I am not really a liquid/ cream blush type of girl, thought I'd give Posietint a try.
Super pleased with the color of the stain - not too pink and definitely not too rosy. Just the perfect tint for a healthy blushing glow.

Super easy to use --- brush 3 lines onto the apples of your cheeks and blend with your fingers or a sponge.
Once applied I was afraid that it would smudge, but the stain set fairly quickly and stayed on all day!

Haven't tried it as a lip stain yet but think that this will be my go to blush / cheek color from now on.

Great blushing glow, all day long.
Not to mention this bottle will last you forever!
Available at Sephora.com - only $28

Definitely recommend all girls to give it a try!

Bat those Eyelashes: Japanese Fake Eyelashes

I am currently in Japan and while I am not finding the best fashion here (probably b/c I am not in Tokyo right now) but the Japanese beauty products are amazing!! Lots of awesome make up, accessories, hair products, and fake eyelashes!!

Japanese girls are obsessed with fake eyelashes. Not only do they have a huge variety of styles ... they double up on them- wearing 2 pairs at a time. They also have bottom lash fake eyelashes!

Snapped this picture at the local grocery store --- ALL FAKE EYELASHES.

Still love Red Cherry lashes but I am thinking that these Japanese lashes are gonna be a close second.

Lash review coming soon. Anyone coming to Japan --- make sure you stock up on the lashes. There are so many kinds for great prices!
