LilSugar — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 06:00:00 -0700

See how far you can stretch that dollar. New parents spend a lot of dough on products that are typically designed to last a matter of months. Some manufacturers are aware of the frustration parents feel when their lil ones outgrow the crib, high chair, or swing that they spent their hard-earned money on, and are designing items that evolve as the children grow. From infant recliners that convert into high chairs to changing tables that turn into homework desks, check out six items that will stay in your home for more than one year and can be used for multiple children.

Agyness Deyn Inspires a Nail Polish Color

BellaSugar — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 06:00:22 -0700

Model Agyness Deyn is famous for her shock of platinum-blond hair, but at least one beauty product is more interested in her fingernails. Australian cosmetics brand Bloom has released a limited-edition nail polish called Agyness (about $15). It's around only for a little while, and to get it, you'd have to order from Down Under. While Agyness Deyn hasn't been spotted wearing her namesake color, the matte shade of wet-concrete gray is quirky and unusual. Kind of like the model herself.

Pimp Your Crib: Bloom Otto Table

babysugar — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 12:00:32 -0700

I love the idea of creating a space for my daughter and her friends to color, have a tea party and play games. But finding room for a table and chairs set often seems like a luxury when space and design are concerns. Most folding tables and chairs feature kiddie designs that don't mesh well with a modern nursery.

Bloom's Otto table and chairs ($450) should catch the eye of mod tot moms given its clean, eco-friendly look. The set, which is designed for kids 18 months and older, features ergonomic chairs that nest within the table, along with two - dishwasher-safe - sliding plastic art trays designed to keep paintbrushes, crayons and markers neatly put away. Made from cultivated stylewood with a low VOC finish, the set is lead, BPA, PVC and phthalates-free and just may encourage your child to put things away.

Ooh La La Liquid Lipsticks, Part I

BellaSugar — Fri, 01 Jun 2007 05:00:11 -0700

Yesterday I told you about Laura Mercier Stickgloss, which is packaged like lipstick but wears like a gloss. These liquid lipsticks are the opposite: On your lips, they have the opaque finish of a lipstick, but they go on like lip gloss - without all the gooey-ness. Welcome to Part I of my two-part series on liquid lipsticks. I think you'll find that they're silky smooth and last much longer than glosses.

Liquid Lipstick by Bloom ($22) has a creamy texture with lots of shine. This moisturizing lip color has a cool twisty feature that releases just a enough color to coat your lips. The lipstick is scented with vanilla and orange and is available in six shades: Jasmine (tangerine), Daisy (champagne), Lily (taupe), Rose (shimmery plum), Blossom (shimmer pink), and Iris (bronze).

The shiny and smooth Playboy Beauty Liquid Lipstick ($16) has richer pigment than a gloss and a smoother finish than a traditional lipstick. It's available in six sexy shades with cute cocktail-inspired names: Red Manhattan (sheer red), Bikini Martini (light pink), A Little Bubbly (light peach), Amaretto Tease (taupe-plum), Grenadine Dream (violet), and Shot Girl (nude).

The Liquid Lipstick by Kevyn Aucoin Beauty ($27) is an update of the brand's pigment-rich lipstick. This liquid version has all the benefits of full coverage but with more shine. It is formulated with jojoba oil, shea butter, and aloe vera and comes in five gorgeous shades: Aquarouge (deep red), Aurelia (dusty pink), Dollphine (brownish pink), Ondine (cherry red), or Reyna (peach).

Orlando Hangs in LA While Miranda Strips Down in NYC

PopSugar — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 02:00:00 -0800

Orlando Bloom grabbed a bite to eat in LA yesterday while Miranda Kerr posed with Heidi Klum and the rest of the VS Angels before they all hit the runway together last night. Orlando may have missed out on his girlfriend's lingerie walk, but he's lucky enough to see her all the time. In fact, she's reportedly part of the reason he won't be back for the fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean. Costar Johnny Depp is wrapping up an exciting week after being named People's Sexiest Man Alive the actor's been offered a record breaking paycheck upward of $30 million dollars if he chooses to reprise his role as Captain Jack Sparrow.

Orlando Bloom Strolls Before Miranda Walks the Runway

PopSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 09:00:00 -0800

Orlando Bloom had his coffee in one hand and a water in the other as he took a stroll in LA yesterday. He's been hanging out with famous friends for the last month in California, as progress is made in the case against those accused of robbing his home over the Summer. Orlando's girlfriend Miranda Kerr is a little busier, however. The Victoria's Secret model is gearing up to take a turn down the catwalk Thursday for the brand's famous runway show, which will feature a special appearance from new mom Heidi Klum.

Orlando and Ryan Join Twilight Stars For U2 Concert

PopSugarUK — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 08:10:04 -0700

U2's concert at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena last night brought the A-list to the VIP lounge. There was plenty of manjoyment to be had, as Orlando Bloom joked around with a mask and Ryan Phillippe looked hot in his hat. Twilight hotties Cam Gigandet and Kellan Lutz also accessorised their gorgeous heads: Cam's girlfriend Dominique Geisendorff is one lucky lady! Ashley Greene joined her costars for the concert, having attended Ed Westwick's party the night before, and other guests included David Beckham, Paris Hilton and Cindy Crawford. Bono, The Edge and Adam Clayton certainly have star pulling power.

Orlando Snacks While the Cops Close In on His Burglars

Orlando Bloom tended to his cell phone after lunch with a friend in LA yesterday. He's been more focused on his charity projects than film work lately, but laying low might be just what Orlando needs after the Summer robbery of his LA home. Some progress in the case is being made - the LAPD has linked his burglars to those who broke into Lindsay Lohan's place, and some recently found computer evidence seems to indicate that the crimes were linked.

Inspired: Chanel's Dimensional Blooms

CasaSugar — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 09:00:02 -0700

I just stumbled across images from the Chanel Spring/Summer Haute Couture show at Paris Fashion Week, which was utterly dreamlike, like a giant pop-up book of bursting, white, paper blooms. An arrangement of 7,000 paper roses, daises, petals, and leaves wound their way around the Pavillon Cambon Capucines, which took a total of 4,800 hours to assemble. While I'd simply die and go to heaven to live in a space like this, it's too time-consuming a project for me. Seeing as Karl and I are on the outs right now, I don't think he'll make it happen for me, either. So, I decided to see if I could track down some smaller doses of dimensional blooms for my home. To see my Chanel-inspired finds, read more.
