Paula’s picks

“my favour ite shadow”

Since Bobbi Brown launched the SADDLE single eye shadow I have been wearing the shade, day and night. I take it everywhere and hope they never discontinue it. You can wear it lightly by day and add a little more for the evening. For the woman who wasn’t born yesterday, it is the answer to looking enhanced without that MADEUP LOOK.

“my only l ip colour”

Last year I discovered Bobbi Brown BROWN LIP COLOR. I know a lot of you will say you have known about it forever but for those who don’t, it is the perfect go everywhere shade. If I am travelling I only take BROWN for lips and SADDLE EYESHADOW for eyes. To pack light is to pack smart.

“my new summer day scent”

Love it... Jo Malone London Wild Bluebell Cologne. They say it is evocative of a romantic English woodland with the delicate sweetness of bluebells combined with lily of the valley and a twist of persimmon. I love it because it’s a fresh summer scent, never heavy. I keep one on my desk and one in my car as it’s perfect for everyday use and never overpowering.

“mult i- taskers”

The Bonded Microjersey Singlet Dress 5836 and Sleeveless Chiffon Dress 5837 are excellent items to own for versatility. I will wear the Singlet Dress (see page 45) over Capri Leggings or a bonded knee length skirt, then over the Chiffon Dress for dressy evenings. These easy care, non- crease pieces are fantastic for travel. Look for an organic necklace to wear with your special items this summer. It’s a fun, more relaxed way of dressing.
