Everything!  I was reading this month's Glamour this morning and noticed that Sandra Bullock was casually dressed in a bunch of different purple-y hues.  I love how they look on her! We all knew purple was sweeping the scene this summer, but I'm totally loving it way more than I expected to. Get some purple into your routine... ... with the perfect purple polishes (like Sandra's!).  OPI has faithfully given us all of the vibrant violet shades that we can handle, and our staff favorites include OPI Miami Beet, OPI Louvre Me Louvre Me Not & OPI Bogota Blackberry.  Creme, shimmery, pearly- we love it all. ... with a dramatic eyeshadow for at night.  Our personal favorite is Tigi Bed Head's Cyberoptics Eyeshadow in Passion.  A warm purple with a subtle sparkle.  Perfect! ... with Betty Beauty's Sexy Betty hair dye kit... for the hair down there. ... with a subtle twist of eyeliner in a violet hue.  Rosie Jane's Grapevine eye define is shaped to allow for the perfect amount of control and blending, so that you can add just the right amount of purple to neutral eye make-up. ... with Beauty of a Site.  Purple's our signature color, after all. :) How are you getting your violet fix? Fill us in!

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, her new movie with Matthew McConaughy, has brought Jennifer out of motherly hibernation and into the media spotlight once again. First seen, post-baby, at the GoGP premier this week, Garner stepped out in an elegant black dress by Rachel Roy. With two youngin's at home - their newest edition, Seraphina Rose, came in January of this year - Garner and her starlit honey Ben Affleck have been avoiding the limelight until now.  Ghosts of Girlfriends Past is out in theaters May 1. Keep your eyes out for Jennifer later in the year as well - The Invention of Lying is due out in September 2009. Wanna get Jen's look? Check out our "Steal the Look" articles here! Want her look from the preview? Check this out: Eyes: Try Playboy Hollywood Nights Eyeshadow in "On the List." This duo is fabulous and can be used to re-create Jen's silvery corners and charcoal definition.  Also, use Blinc Grand Lash Primer and Blinc Mascara in Black for great lashes! Cheeks: We recommend Urban Apothecary's Supernatural AfterGlow in Peachy Dream to maintain a peachy Garner glow all night long. Lips: Naked Kiss Plump & Polish Lip Gloss in Apricot Fluff (doesn't that just sound nice?) will give you voluptuous lip volume, a little bit of color and alot of confidence!
