Glamor V-Day Icon: Jessica Rabbit
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010
If ya wanna knock ‘em dead on Valentine’s Day may I suggest a style icon to emulate? Jessica Rabbit.

But Jessica Rabbit is often named as one of the sexiest cartoons for a reason. She’s a pin-up girl, a femme fatale, a… weirdly appealing cartoon to many!
To capture the Jessica Rabbit spirit for a special night out, I suggest a long red dress, hot rollers in your hair to curl it (think: Veronica Lake), matte red lip stick and lots of black mascara with little other makeup other than a hint of blush for a ‘naughty’ flush, red jewelry whether it’s rubies or red crystals, red heels, perfume dabbed behind the ears, and at the base of the front and back of your neck, and luxurious silky lotion all over your body. It’s all about a feeling of glamor and power. And you have it. You reign over your domain! Red is a power color.

It’s more sensible than you think – it’s almost Spring (well, let me believe it is!) so the colors of yellow and purple are spot-on for the season.
As always, every item I pi ... Read More
