And so the countdown officially begins! We're officially one week away from the opening of Sex and the City 2, and I can't wait! I'm loving the fact that Sarah Jessica Parker's highlights are toned down here, but really this photo is about her Chanel clutch and Christian Louboutin Pigalle glitter gold pumps- right!?

Wouldn't you agree?

Mischo Beauty Covers Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week: Barbie Runway Show/#NYFW

For those of you who may not have known, Barbie turned 50 this year- and in honor of her birthday, fifty designers were asked to design outfits for the Barbie runway show which took place yesterday at the Bryant Park tents.

I've included a few of my favorite looks, beginning with the Catherine Malandrino Barbie (I'm pretty sure this is Shelby Coleman modeling this look-love her!)...

Rachel Roy Barbie

I loved this Barbie, but I wasn't able to find out the designer. If anyone knows, please share!

Rebecca Taylor Barbie

Diane Von Furstenberg Barbie

Baby Phat Barbie

She was a favorite as well, love the belt!

Christian Louboutin designed the hot pink pumps (Pantone 219 Pink) and stated, "Barbie needs to wear great shoes because every girl needs to wear great shoes." I agree- LOVE those shoes!

Mischo Beauty Covers Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week: The Heart Truth's Red Dress Collection/#NYFW

After including Nia Long in a post a few weeks ago, I was excited to hear that she'd be walking the runway in The Heart Truth's Red Dress Collection show held this morning in Bryant Park.

For those of you who may not know, the Red Dress is the national symbol for women and heart disease awareness- heart disease is the #1 killer of women. Nia made her debut on the runway wearing a red dress by Tracy Reese and Christian Louboutin's Hidden-Platform pumps.

Her hair, skin, makeup and nails- perfect. Oh, and might I mention that she just doesn't age!!! I seriously need to know her beauty secrets!

Mischo Beauty: Be Your Own Dream Girl

Dare To Dream. The main thing that keeps an objective out of reach is your assumption that you cannot reach it. You're able to do precisely what you expect to be able to do. Are there dreams that you dare not to dream because you've decided that you cannot attain them? If so, then your negative expectation has become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Before you abandon or downgrade your most treasured dreams, consider this. When your goal is personally meaningful and compelling, you can achieve it, whatever it may be.

You are never too old or too young, too rich or too poor, to direct the energy of your life toward a compelling objective. Life is about making a difference, and that's something you can do no matter what your circumstances may be. There is somewhere you truly wish to go, something you sincerely desire to achieve, right this very moment. Take the time to find it, commit yourself to it, and make the effort to make it happen. Your dreams represent some of the most valuable gifts you have to give to life. Dare to dream, and allow the best of who you are to be fully expressed.

Mischo Beauty School: Nail Shape 101

I just discovered that I'd never posted a Mischo Beauty School lesson on nails, which is weird because my weekly Mischo Beauty Extra NOTD posts are my favorite. I'll admit that I had a fear of doing nails in cosmetology school, which is surprising, because I've always loved doing my own. Well, I've overcome the fear and now love nails as much as I do hair, skin and makeup.

So, let's discuss choosing a nail shape before your manicure. Here are a few things to consider:

1. The shape of your hands
2. The length of your fingers
3. The shape of your cuticles
4. The type of work you do

I was taught that the shape of your nail should mirror the shape of your cuticles, to ensure a natural look that will compliment your hands. Here are the most requested shapes:

1. Square Nail
2. Round Nail
3. Oval Nail
4. Pointed Nail
5. Squoval Nail

Keep in mind that an unusual shape will definitely draw attention to your nails and hands, and if you work with your hands, you should definitely choose a shape that will allow for a shorter nail length in order to avoid breakage.

Questions? What's your nail shape and why?

Developed by Zoe Pocock, of London's Charles Worthington salon, each nail is painted black with a red coat on the underside. Fabulous. Just Fabulous!
