be blushless

1,2,3,4…smokey eye!

So here it is, my first tutorial for Dashing Magazine.
In every issue I will let you into a few professional make-up secrets and give advice for a quick wearable make up look.
Feel free to let me know if there are any looks you are particularly interested in or if you have any make up questions.
The Ladies behind the magazine are the best and I really like how the first issue came out.
A really nice smart and inspiring women’s mag without crap.
I can’t wait to work with them again…
I hope you enjoy the mag as well. Check it out here.
(You will find Make Up on page 54/55)

Full On Make Up

Recently I have been up a lot of make-up work.
Great and inspiring work, most of the time.
I met interesting people and have been learning and experimenting.
December should now get a little more quiet so I can catch up with blogging and updating my website.
And for Christmas cookies and tea.

I will post a few recent projects within the next weeks.
Have you all checked out the great Dashing Magazine?
I have done a little step by step make up tutorial in their first issue that just launched yesterday.
Happy December, all!

when a fashion editor is getting married…

I just found these stunning photos of a true high fashion wedding.
And yes, this is a real wedding.
The lilac haired bride is fashion editor Katie Shillingford and her gorgeous husband is Alex Dromgoole.

When a fashion editor is getting married her wedding looks like straight out of a magazine.

and finally….SPRING!

Freja Beha Erichsen by Rafael Stahelin for Vogue Korea September 2010

Spring arrived in London:
WINTER IS OVER
I can smell it, I can hear it and I can see it, most important I can feel it.
I am no longer freezing.
I want sunglasses and fruit smoothies and bbq’s. I want white.
I want a garden, or at least a balcony of roof terrace.
It is a super busy spring for me with a few exciting shoots coming up, full time job and moving house as well.
I haven’t had a day off in quite a while and it will stay like this a bit longer.
But I am happy. The sun is out and I am learning inspiring things every day.

What makes you happy right now?

I left my heart in NYC, where is yours?

I did leave my heart in NYC
(which doesn’t mean I dislike London or my fab new life here)
Now you can wear your favorite places and memories on your fingers.
The Paris based designer Philippe Tournaire designed an architecture collection of rings, where you can find famous buildings and places from various cities/countries around the globe.

I found this though my new blog project
“This is Jane Wayne“, which is mainly written in German, but my blog as well as one of the other girls are writing in English.
Check it out here or go to blogs directly here.

how to overcome hibernation mode

Summer is over. My body starts to get into hibernation mood.
When I get up in the morning it’s still really dark outside.
But there is always coffee…
The other good news are that there is an exciting new blog project coming up.
The ladies of Artschoolvets, a cool Berlin based group of artists, designers, musicians etc. are about to launch “this is Jane Wayne” the female counterpart of the main website.
I am more than happy to follow their invitation and join the cool ladies behind it.
I will keep you up to date about the launching date.
I have to push my self now to get out of hibernation mode, to get the print look books done and preparing for sales and production. Get started with the new blog….and finding myself some cozy winter clothes.
I hope to work with lots of great brides this season and I am already really looking forward to create fantastic styles for them!

Fantastic Man just found his significant other!!!
The makers of the best mens magazin in the world: FANTASTIC MAN, published a womens mag as well.
I am sure you will find more rad (wedding-)fashion inspiration in there than in most bridal mags ; )

Liv is gentlewoman. What about you? What are your favorite magazines?
I can’t wait to be done with all moving hassle and find time for magazines and books.

Blushless featured in ELLE

ELLE April 2010
Blushless has been featured in ELLE.

Happy & Hectic Days!
Its so much happening right now.
Liv is in London, still looking for the perfect place to stay.
The weather is amazing. Blooming cherry blossom trees all over the place,
sunshine, blue blue skies, and the warm spring zsa-zsa-zsu feeling inside.
I met so many inspiring great people within the last days.
Liv is in LOVE with London.

Blushless Holidays Y’all!

There are so many high quality online fashion- and art mags around…
Liv is reading and enjoying them during her daily coffee break.
I just discovered Fashion156 because they were featuring one of my designs.
The lady on the right shown on the image above is wearing
BLUSHLESS Look04 theLINDAone.
If you are still looking for a stunning holiday outfit or inspiring styling ideas check their site out.

Happy Holidays all!

I know i just told you that I am not quite in the mood this year, I guess I am just envy:
While my BF and friends are hanging out in the sun, Liv is freezing and packed with work…never mind!
I am almost back to my beautiful best, and I am tinsel, ladies, all over; )
P.S.: I LOVE MY JOB!

simply cool

This picture is just cool.
I bought the September issue of the British Vogue here in London.
Kate Moss graces the cover and it made me realise once again, I am still in love with all the great supermodels of the 90′s.
Amber Amber Valletta (35) and Linda Evangelista (44) are featured recently in
V Magazine showing us that models can still have a career after 30 and 40.
Go and grab a copy of V Magazine when it his stands September 1st.
It will be more inspiring than most Bridal Magazines.

somebody somewhere…

Wouldn’t this be a great grooms outifit?
The black buttons on the shirt are a rad alternative to a tie.
I saw this picture in just relaunched magazine CITY.
Its all about the city, you know, the city Liv is missing every day…
They wrote a great article about the London indie rock band
CAZALS, this guys are just looking amazing in this photoshoot.
Just like rock star grooms.
Not only that the band has a great style, they also made this awesome
little lovestory video: HAPPY WEEKEND:
