at home with... gucci westman

Who doesn’t love Gucci Westman? The celebrated makeup artist and global artistic director for Revlon was profiled years ago in the January 2007 issue of House & Garden (you know, the one with Chloë Sevigny on the cover?). Upon rediscovering it, I had to scan + post! It’s always fun to get a peek into creative’s homes, no? The little snippets that we see here - that floral wallpaper, the lace tablecloth... - is enough to make one think that her entire townhouse must be phenomenal! Hopefully one day, we’ll see it in its entirety in one of the glossies.

bryce dallas howard + kate spade f/w '11

After watching this Kate Spade short, I’ve come to three conclusions: 1) I need to invest in a pair of hot pink socks asap 2) The amount of effort, planning and manpower that a professional shoot requires, always forgotten when looking at an ad, is rather astonishing! 3) Bryce Dallas Howard has me thisclose to running to the nearest pharmacy and purchasing red hair dye. Bryce's makeup was by Gucci Westman, one of my all-time favorite makeup artists. So pretty. PS - Did you know that she is the daughter of actor/director Ron Howard? I sure didn't!
