New Dior Shadow & Chic Summer Boots

LUXE: We want you to soak in some UV this summer and by that we’re not advocating baking in the sun without any SPF. We just love Dior’s new Ultra Violet Ultra-Smooth, High Impact Eyeshadow for summer (number 186). It’s the perfect deep plum with just a hint of shimmer, but not screaming, “Take me to a disco.” A little goes a long way in the crease of your eyes or in the outer edges.  If you have brown peepers, the shadow has an amazing way of bringing out your green highlights. Match it with a matte pink over the entire lid, three Tamara Gold swipes of mascara and you’re out the door looking classic chic. Four red kisses out of five. (www.Dior.com for $28. Find it at Lord&Taylor).

LEAN: Kate Hudson started it when she strolled down the streets of Los Angeles in a white short skirt, bright blue tank and…boots. Yes, low as you can go summer boots and chic ones that look a bit Western from designer Isabel Marant . (www.isabelmarant.tm.fr) You can mimic the look with a cheaper version that only cost $58 from Urban Outfitters. Check out their Kimchi Blue “Canvas Western Boots in cotton canvas and leather.
