Sites of the Day

February 7th, 2010 by Karen 9 Comments

Hot dogs, hamburgers, chips and cold beer — It’s Super Bowl Sunday, ladies! Is your tummy ready to rumble?

I don’t follow football during the regular season, but I love to eat my way through the big game, you know what I’m sayin’? 🙂

Let’s take a quick look around the interwebs before the teams head down to the field… Tabs is already warming up and stretching his calves.

Herbal Essences

Herbal Essences must have haird my cries (LOL!) because they packed the “get the look” section of their website with some pretty cool how-to hair videos and a glossary of tips on the best ways to use popular styling tools like hair dryers and curling irons. Nice.

thesixtyone

thesixtyone and I have been making sweet, sweet music together all morning long. The site’s like a more social version of Pandora where Indie musicians can share their tunes, and listeners can vote them up or down. Good job on the interface and huge album cover-style images. I gotta get my music fix, ya’ll. 🙂

COLORSLAB – Current Issue: The Sea

Please. visit. COLORSLAB. It’s one of those ideas that isn’t necessarily new (user-submitted content: magazine articles, photos and video), but it’s executed in a way that simply works, beautifully. The real life touching stories and imagery (the current issue is titled “The Sea”) gets me all choked up.

IINSIGHT – Indie Network

Hit IINSIGHT for sharp, bleeding edge urban music, fashion, entertainment and art scene news. WTF!? There’s an Adidas Original Star Wars Collection!?

Timothy Hogan Photography

You know me and full-screen fashion photography sites. I’m a sucker for ’em. Timothy Hogan’s eye has blessed campaigns for Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Chanel and Absolute. His beauty work (link at the bottom of the page) is exquisite.

The StyleList

I like StyleList’s hair how-to’s and practical fashion and beauty tips. It also has a nice shopping section with roundups on different categories of clothes from dresses to pants, tops, bags and accessories.

Checklist

SIGH! I wish I spoke Portuguese so I could order some of Checklist’s beachy Brazilian dresses. I have figured out, though, that coleção means collection… That’s where you can see the dresses I’m lemming.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    I just spent like 20 minutes looking through Timothy Hogan’s site. Pretty cool!

    So did you watch the game? I rewatched Lost (I was looking for Richard Hatch during the recap) and did some laundry. Exciting Sunday!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
