Even on an early morning coffee run Emma Stone looks fab. And so can you!
-PJ Gach
Just a few days ago, Emma Stone was spotted down in Tribeca going for an early morning coffee run. Most of us don't look that put together early in the morning (well, I don't!). Here's how to get that same effortlessly chic look for much less!

Miranda Kerr wore a sparkly blue/green dress to the CFDA Awards, did she steal the dress from Jane Jetson?
-PJ Gach
They call the CFDA Awards the 'Fashion Oscars,' so celebrities really, really, and I mean really try to make a bang-on impression on the red carpet at the event held in NYC's Alice Tully Hall.
Miranda Kerr wore a sparkly, blue/green fit n' flare dress, carried a silver bag and finished off the look with black heels. Is it me, or does she look like Jane Jetson?
Seriously. Look at Jane Jetson's black trimmed cocktail frock. Then look at Miranda Kerr's. Eerily similar, doncha think?
Going out after work, then leave the blazer behind or try
this outfit!

Get a sun kissed glow and
softer skin in seconds with Caudalie’s Divine Legs.
-PJ Gach
Don’t come down with tan
envy. It’s not good for you or your skin. Instead reach for Caudalie Divine
Legs ($38, Caudalie ).
It’s a bronzer that instantly gives you a natural looking (really!) golden tan
while it moisturizes your skin. It’s infused with Caudalie’s signature Divine fragrance:
Pink pepper, grapefruit, rose, vanilla and cedar. It’s light, fresh and a touch
romantic.
While the product says legs, you can use it all of your
body. Wait for it to dry before you get dressed. It lasts until your next
shower. When I tried it, I was amazed how quickly my legs went from winter pale
to summer gold. I have sensitive skin
and it didn’t irritate it, probably because it is made with 93 % natural
ingredients.
Wear it over your sunscreen and your skin will love you for
years and years.
Pampelonne Rosė Lime is a light refreshing wine that’s only
110 calories!
-PJ Gach
When the weather gets warmer, you look for light, refreshing
wines. Say hello to Pampelonne Rosė Lime. It’s a well-balanced rose that’s not
to tart, not too sweet. Sipping it, it’s hard to believe that the contents of
these pink striped cans are only 110 calories. There isn’t that weird diet
drink after taste, there isn’t any weird after taste. It’s so good, you want to
have another sip, or three.
Last week I got to meet the wine at its launch party. Under
a bright blue sky with temps hovering in the mid 80s, the atmosphere created the
perfect introduction to meet your BFF for this season.
Pampelonne Rosė Lime is a blend of French Muscadet wine
infused with all natural lime, passion fruit, grapefruit, and sparkling water. That’s
right, only six ingredients, no preservatives, 6 % alcohol and only 110
calories. Yum.
Rosė Lime is the Pampleonne’s first flavor: They’re promising more
delicious combinations for next summer. Pampelonne Rosé Lime is 6% alcohol by
volume and enjoyed best chilled. It's the perfect companion for a grilled
steak, summer salad, a cheese and fruit plate or any of your favorite summer
treats.
The wines are available in an 8.4 oz / 250 ml can with a
suggested retail price of $15.99 for a four pack. Pampelonne Rose Lime will be
available at the end of June 2013 in New York City
at K&D Wines, Beacon Wines and Quality House Wines which all will ship the
product nationally.
