Forum Shops Pre-Fall Blogger Event

Last weekend I spent a fun filled day with my blogging babes and The Forum Shops at Caesars.

We received a hosted tour of the shops and a pre-fall peek  into some of the season’s must-have’s.

Dior Makeup Forum Shops

Our first stop was at DIOR Makeup where we arrived perfectly timed with the launch of DIOR JOY which landed in boutiques just a few days ago!

DIOR JOY

JOY is the first new fragrance DIOR has launched in over 12 years so you can imagine how anxiously awaited it has been.  The scent combines zested Bergamot and Mandarin with Grasse Rose, Jasmine, warm creamy sandalwood and a whisper of musk.

The bottle has a clean, modern design and Jennifer Lawrence is the face of the campaign.  Even though I am more of a cologne than an Eau de Parfum kind of gal I really enjoyed the scent.  It’s clean, modern and ultra mood boosting.  It has a wonderful citrus base so it isn’t too “perfumey” it’s a scent I would totally rock.

Ever tried on a scent, purchased it and then walked out of the store only to learn about 10 minutes later after the scent develops that it doesn’t mesh with your body chemistry?  Well the experts at DIOR taught us how to best try a scent.  Once you spritz it on a pulse point press down with three of your finger’s on top of the scent for about 20 seconds to warm the fragrance.  That is how you will achieve the “true” way the scent will develop with your body chemistry.

After a spritz, spritz and some pics we were off to a pre-fall shoe preview at Stuart Weitzman.

Boots, boots so many scrumptious boots!  I am OBSESSED with the Veruka bootie.  Seriously I only had eyes for it and took photos of it in every color-way.

It combines the edginess of classic combat boots with the fashion forward right-nowness of sock booties. More refined than rugged, the mid-calf Veruka boots were designed with a leather stretch sock detail for a subtly slouchy silhouette. They feature leather wraparound laces, the Stuart Weitzman signature metal square studs and a sleek rounded block heel.

One of my favorite things about Stuart Weitzman is their innovate designs and stretch features to their boots.  They are one of the few brands whose OTK (Over the knee) and OTC (over the calf) boots fit EVERY BODY TYPE because they design them with stretch!  They are also one of only about 3 designer brands that in addition to regular sizing also carry fringe sizes in shoes (size under 5 and over 10).

Another standout is the SW-612 Sneaker.  Talk about chic comfort!  Distinguished by a sock-like silhouette and finished with leather-wrapped elastic ruching detail around the ankle, leather pull tab topped with the SW signature metal square stud and miniature square stud on the back of the sole. These sport-chic stars feature a removable insole and flexible construction — they are designed to be folded for easy storage and effortless travel plus they look super cool!

…and more shoes!

Our next stop was Sam Edelman.  I have been blog posting, Instagramming and all around non-stop talking about animal prints for Fall 2018.

One, if not THE, biggest shoe trends for the season Sam Edleman offers some chic “off duty” and work friendly animal print options.

I am in love with the Loraine Loafer.  Sophisticated and chic the sleek sole and gold hardware make this menswear inspired loafer a perfect paring for power suiting, straight leg trousers and another seasonal must-have the turtleneck.

Our last fashion stop of the day was one of my personal favorite clothing brands Ted Baker.

Focusing on moody florals, figure flattering silhouettes, lady-like details and ruffles the Ted Baker Fall 2018 Collection is Oh-so-Christie.

The collection combines sophisticated colors with lush and luxurious fabrics to create ultra-feminine looks in a color palette of  jewel tones includeing burgundy, teal, emerald green and vibrant orange, as well as pops of electric blues, acid yellow and fresh neon pink.

Seriously I would wear, and most likely will wear, everything in this collection.  Take a peek for yourself….

Gents I didn’t forget about you!

Animal Prints and Motifs are a HUGE Fall 2018 trend and Ted Baker has mastered it!  From prowling panthers to exotic birds in the form of sharply tailored silhouettes and elegant casual basics.  The color palette, similar to the womens collection, features teal, vibrant orange, emerald green, black and dark purple mixed with a dash of Ted’s whimsical humor.

Dior Beauty Capture Totale Dreamskin Advanced Collection

This seasonal shift has left my skin looking anything but fresh.

I needed a little skin pick-me-up so I headed to the Dior Beauty Boutique at the Forum Shops at Caesars to check out their newly revamped Capture Totale Dreamskin Advanced Collection.

I had heard amazing things about this line through my beauty influencer circles and in magazines but no amount of research could prepare me for how fantastic these products made my skin feel and look!

Dior has completely reinvented their iconic DreamSkin products.

The new boosted formula, DreamSkin Advanced, instantly infuses the skin with greater perfection, correction and comfort. Firmer, smoother and longer lasting, the skin is enhanced and illuminated by the age-defying and skin-perfecting action of stem cells.

Seriously these products act like the most magical Instagram filters but in real life.

About the Science: Drawing on fifteen years of pioneering expertise in stem cells, Dior Science turned its attention to a rare reservoir – Skin-Derived Precursors – to restructure the skin’s framework and deliver visible and lasting youthful perfection. These dermal cells are fundamental to jumpstart the skin’s mechanical properties of elasticity and tone. The skin’s texture is refined, and the complexion’s radiance and evenness appear enhanced. 

Capture Totale Dreamskin Advanced Perfect Skin Creator is an INSTANT skin PERFECTOR that acts as a skin booster serum and also a makeup primer.

The formula is packed full of ingredients that help the skin’s texture, complexion, luminosity, imperfections and wrinkles.

One of the main magical plants in the formula is a Madagascar flower called LONGOZA. This flower is exclusive to Dior skincare and has multiple natural self-regenerating powers. Another powerful ingredient is the Ophilia flower.  This delicate white flower  helps regulates the inflammatory messengers that cause redness, limits the activity of the enzyme responsible for melanin disorders and encourages cell renewal. Dior Science has shown that Opilia acts on specific targets, such as dark spots and pores, and has the power to promote the penetration of other ingredients for a booster, in-depth action!

It leaves your skin feeling soft, silky and smooth which creates the perfect base layer for makeup application or a no makeup look.

Capture Totale Dreamskin Perfect Skin Cushion SPF 50

This product has been giving my skin LIFE in the afternoon.

Perfection, anytime, anywhere it’s a hybrid of skincare and makeup that visibly improves pores, reduces redness and eliminates shine leaving skin looking flawless. It boasts the same skincare ingredients as in the serum, so it works as both skincare and makeup. It nourishes, protects and enhances your skin continuously throughout the day.

Apply with the included puff anytime. The texture is ultra fine, and it melds into the skin as soon as you stamp the sponge. For the application, there is no sweeping and blending required, and it leaves no traces of makeup. The formula is so hydrating that it almost feels like I am spraying a hydrating mist, and it instantly makes my complexion appear more plump and dewy!  Hello real life perfecting filter!

Because I was hydration loading on this trip I also picked up the Dior Addict Lip Glow Color Reviver Balm. This sheer balm enhancers your natural lip color while moisturizing and protecting your lips. It creates the slightest rosy tint and is the most hydrated lip product EVER! Wear it alone, on top of or underneath lipstick.
