A full brother to Golden Slipper winner Catbird brought $1.1 million (Australian) Sunday at the Conrad Jupiters Magic Millions yearling sale, setting a record for the Gold Coast-based Magic Millions Sales company in Australia.The Danehill--Fitting colt was purchased by New Zealand-based owner Rob McAnulty, on behalf of Hong Kong-based businessman Peter Yip. McAnulty said the colt will not be exported and will be trained by Gerald Ryan, with a view to winning the Magic Millions $1 million race for 2-year-olds in 2003.McAnulty's final $50,000 bid outdid his competitor, Irish-based veterinarian Demi O'Byrne, who was acting on the behalf of Coolmore Stud managing partner John Magnier and Michael Tabor.In all during the fourth session, 149 horses were sold for a gross of $12,731,500 and an average of $85,446. Through four sessions, 521 horses have been sold for a gross of $44,298,000 and an average price of $85,025, which compares with an average of $87,610 last year (down by approx. 3%). The clearance rate also fell by 4% to 83%.
Magic Millions managing director Don Hancock said "Given the world circumstance of the latter part of last year, we considered it business wise to expect a sizeable fall in results and we astutely budgeted accordingly".
"Obviously we did not want to see a drop in the clearance rate, because it means more yearlings did not sell, but we did catalogue 47 more lots than last year", Hancock said. "It is pleasing though that the average price has held up so well and overall the sale was solid enough".
"We did see too many yearlings come to the sale backward in development, and some vendors had unrealistic reserves".During the auction's third session on Saturday, a Zabeel--Warning Express colt and a Timber Country--Valourina filly each brought $310,000. In all, 85 horses were sold during the third session for a gross of $3,536,641, an average of $41,489.

As I've promised, at 2,000 Twitter followers I'll do a BONUS edition of Comic Book Legends Revealed during the week we hit 2,000. We are getting quite close, so go follow us (here's the link to our Twitter page again)! Not only will you get updates when new blog posts show up on both Twitter and Facebook, but you'll get original content from me, as well!
It wasn't intentional, but today's installment ended up having a connective theme – all legends involve cross-media tie-ins!
Let's begin!
COMIC LEGEND: Marvel and George Romero spent two years developing a comic/film project that never got off of the ground.
STATUS: True
George Romero became a famous cult film figure after the success of his horror film, Night of the Living Dead, in 1968.
Romero was always interested in comics, and in fact, in 1982, he and Stephen King teamed up for a movie, Creepshow, that is based off of the classic EC Comics horror comics of the 1950s.
Soon after, in 1983, the New York Times announced:
A just-conceived and still-unnamed comic-book character will be muscling his way into the movie-television field in 1984. Marvel Comics, creator of Spiderman and the Fantastic Four, and George Romero, the cult horror film director of "Night of the Living Dead" and "Creepshow," have joined to create a new superhero who will debut almost simultaneously in a comic book and a PG-rated movie.
Well, 27 years later, this character has never appeared in a comic or a film.
A few years back, however, the great Bob Layton revealed the character
You see, Layton and Jackson Guice were given the assignment by Marvel to do storyboards on the character, a cyborg known as Copperhead (the name came from the color of his metal skull), based off of a concept developed by Romero with Marvel Editor-in-Chief, Jim Shooter. The theory was that Layton and Guice would create the storyboard pages in comic book form. That way, when the film was released, the tie-in comic would duplicate the story almost exactly.
However, the project, as it turned out, was contingent upon Romero's third zombie film, Day of the Dead, becoming a success. You see, Day of the Dead was originally conceived by Romero as an epic film (he jokingly referred to it as his "zombie Gone with the Wind") but budget cuts reduced the scope dramatically and upon its release in 1985 it was pretty much dead on arrival. It received mixed-to-poor reviews and did very little at the box office (interestingly, when it was released on VHS, it was a major international hit – isn't that odd?).
Because of that, such an experimental project (which clearly was going to cost a lot of money) had little to no chance of finding financial backers, so Marvel and Romero dropped the project, and the more than forty pages of storyboards that Layton and Guice produced were basically thrown into the Marvel vaults for good.
Luckily for us, Layton decided to share some of the pages with us readers, so head over to his website to check out the extensive storyboards that Layton has so kindly shared with the world!
Thanks so much to Bob Layton for sharing these lost pages with the world!
This next legend is a two-fer-one! Both legends concern similar legends about one comic strip, so I figure I'll talk about the comic strip and then tell you each legend.
Secret Agent X-9 had one of the most impressive creative teams in comic strip history – it was written by Dashiell Hammett and was drawn by Alex Raymond.
Holy crap, right?
That'd be like Alan Moore and Jack Kirby creating a comic book together.
However, this obviously wasn't something Hammett was super interested in doing – it was mostly just because the syndicate wanted a strip to compete with the then-massively popular Dick Tracy comic strip. Hammett and Raymond both left the strip within a year after the strip's 1934 debut.
The comic was about a government crimefighter named Secret Agent X-9 (no real name).
After being passed around a bit during the rest of the 1930s (during which a film serial was made based on the strip), Mel Graff took over the art in 1939 and quickly became the driving force behind the strip. He did the strip into the 1960s (the strip lasted until 1996 with Graff's successors).
Graff's work was popular enough that the strip was adapted again into a serial in 1945 based on his work.
Among the changes Graff made to the strip was the idea of giving the main character a "real" name, Phil Corrigan (based on a character from one of Graff's earlier comic strips) and also adding a love triangle element to the comic.
Corrigan had two significant love interests, Wilda and Linda, this leads to one of today's legends…
COMIC LEGEND: The writer of Secret Agent X-9 wrote a hit song based on a character in the strip and then promoted the song in the comic strip!
STATUS: True
In 1947, Graff actually wrote a song based on Wilda.
The song was a hit, perhaps in part to Graff actually plugging the song IN the strip!!!
Thanks to Joakim Gunnarsson's brilliant blog, Sekvenskonst (Sequential Art), check out these strips from 1948…
That's some impressive plugging by Graff!!
In any event, perhaps because of the fact that "Wilda" was based on the Secret Agent X-9 character, there has arisen a legend that…
COMIC LEGEND: The song "Linda" was written about a different character in the Secret Agent X-9 strip.
STATUS: False
This one was practically a Christmas present to me!
You see, very often in discussions about Secret Agent X-9, you will read, like it appears on the Wikipedia page for Secret Agent X-9, "Both these characters inspired popular songs: "Linda" written by Jack Lawrence and "Wilda" written by Graff himself."
However, I actually did a Music Legends Revealed awhile back specifically ON the origins of the song "Linda" by Jack Lawrence!
You can check it out here.
Suffice it to say that Lawrence did not write the song based on the comic strip character. He wrote it based on the daughter of a friend of his – and since Lawrence's story does not exactly end happily for him (the song didn't sell for awhile, so his friend actually financed a recording of the song, but only after acquiring the copyright of the song from Lawrence on the cheap without telling Lawrence that he was behind the purchase and the recording), it sure does not sound like something that Lawrence would be confused about.
(Here's a picture of Lawrence from the 1950s…
Be sure to read the above Music Legends Revealed to see just what Linda Lawrence actually DID write the song about! It's pretty trippy.
Thanks to the late, great Jack Lawrence for the information!
Okay, that's it for this week! I wish you all a Very Merry Christmas (I'll wish you a Happy New Year next week)!!
Thanks to the Grand Comics Database for this week's covers! And thanks to Brandon Hanvey for the Comic Book Legends Revealed logo!
Feel free (heck, I implore you!) to write in with your suggestions for future installments! My e-mail address is firstname.lastname@example.com. And my Twitter feed is http://twitter.com/brian_cronin, so you can ask me legends there, as well!
Here's my book of Comic Book Legends (130 legends – half of them are re-worked classic legends I've featured on the blog and half of them are legends never published on the blog!).

Was Superman a Spy?: And Other Comic Book Legends Revealed
See you all next week!
X-9 is still used today as a slang, by drug dealers in Rio de Janeiro to refer to an informer or an infiltrated cop.
Wow, awesome info, Anderson, thanks!
Probably better that Copperhead didn't surface, as I doubt that SFX would do that armor justice without looking cheesy.
What about the Romero book that was coming out from DC in the last 10 years, Toe Tags? Did that ever come out?
I don't know much about X9, but the song legend seems reminiscent of the "Ev'ry Little Bug" song in the Spirit. Except that Eisner didn't write more than the title being a recurring bit of song that appears in different stories, and someone else wrote a song based off the title.
Hm, would Hammett and Raymond teaming up be maybe more like Stephen King with — hm, there really aren't any photorealistic comic strip artists still working — Gary Gianni, the Prince Valiant artist? That is, a "genre" writer working with a top flight comic strip artist.
Great work as usual, Brian, and I hope something cool is planned for 8 weeks from now!
"(interestingly, when it was released on VHS, it was a major international hit – isn't that odd?). "
Uh no, Day of the Dead is an excellent film. It's box office had more to do with it being unrated in a climate where unrated films could no longer get advertising or even bookings for that matter. Video was always more welcoming to unrated films.
Didn't L'il Abner also do a song-in-a-strip thing? Or was it more other way around, that the song was used in a publicity campaign for the strip…
Copperhead looks like Deathlok with more hair.
Too snarky for Xmas? Sorry.
Is there a recording of "Wilda" available? Did Mel Graff perform it too?
The post about "Wilda" reminds me of the time Alan Moore wrote a song as an episode of 'V for vendetta' that was simultaneously released as a 12″ single with music by David J (of goth group Bauhaus). The collaborated on several things in those days including the amazing 7″ "Sinister Ducks" with sleeve art by Kevin Oneill & Savage Pencil.
Something is bothering me with that Copperhead story . I would like to hear it straight from Romero and Shooter
If I'm Marvel in the early 80's and I want to do a cyborg- comic movie tie-in, why pick someone from the horror genre? What about him screams action comic supehero tie-in director?
Conversely, I can't believe Romero would have developed or wanted to cinematize an on the surface formulaic superhero given his horror only body of work. The whole thing sound like some ill-conceived Shooter idea.
Toe Tags was released as a mini with Berni Wrightson on covers and I think Tommy Castillo doing interior art. it was okay.
Leslie Charteris, who created the Saint, also wrote the Secret Agent X-9 comic strip.
Leslie Charteris, who created the Saint, also wrote the Secret Agent X-9 comic strip.
Also, Max Allan Collins pointed out that Raymond Chandler used to mock Spillane as "the comic book writer". Well, Chandler seems to have forgotten about X-9.
In fact, as far as I understand, the reason the funding dropped out was that George Romero wasn't interested in making 'Day of the Dead' rated R.
Sean, that's the true story. Big George always wanted it to be unrated and was shooting for that. The money men pulled out, fearful that the film would do poorly in the then current movie environment.
Is the first year of X9 currently available somewhere? Even if it's awful, the very idea of Dashiell Hammett writing a comic strip… "holy crap" is indeed right.
Huh, I wonder if there's any connection between Copperhead and the later (and similar in appearance) Coldblood.
"Romero was always interested in comics, and in fact, in 1982, he and Stephen King teamed up for a movie, Creepshow, that is based off of the classic EC Comics horror comics of the 1950s."
That would be "inspired by" classic EC Comics. Creepshow was an original King screenplay, not an adaptation of EC material. "Based off of" implies he was directly adapting the stories.
"Copperhead (the name came from the color of his metal skull), based off of a concept developed by…"
That would be "based ON" a concept, or just "Copperhead, a concept developed by…"
Sorry, but the former fiction editor in me grits his teeth when he sees clunky phrases like "based off of."
It's totally possible that Copperhead could have been a compelling character with an awesome story, but that design is just awful. So generic and bland!
"What about him screams action comic supehero tie-in director?"
Remember Knightriders?
"Is the first year of X9 currently available somewhere? Even if it's awful, the very idea of Dashiell Hammett writing a comic strip… "holy crap" is indeed right."
Kitchen Sink put out an edition in 1990, ISBN 978-0878160778. The strips aren't very good; I definitely wouldn't get your hopes up. Bill Blackbeard writes a nice introduction, however.
(Don't confuse this with the recently released IDW "Volume 1″ that collects Archie Goodwin and Al Williamson's run.)
@Travis – Actually, Will Eisner did write "Ev'ry Little Bug", with music by Bill Harr, in 1946/1947, though it was never recorded until 1987 when Kitchen Sink released an LP with 5 versions (!) on a picture disc. Snippets of the song were inserted into a handful of Spirit sections in '46 & '47.
(see http://www.angelfire.com/art/wildwood/bug.html)
@Dan – Mmm, Goodwin/Williamson anything is good!
And yeah, Copperhead looks like a really badly designed reboot of Deathlok (I hope neither Guice nor Layton designed the character… brrrr!)
(Drat… that closing parenthesis is not supposed to be part of the hyperlink. Sorry about that.)
[…] I don't think I knew that George Romero and Marvel were working on a project together. Thanks Comic Books Legends Revealed! […]
I'm a big George Romero zombie movie fan, and I had NEVER heard of the Romero/Marvel business! Learn something new everyday. Cool!
Nick mentioned Coldblood. Is that any relation to the Coldblood 7 series that is mentioned in Malcolm Jones III's bios in the Sandman trades? (He's mentioned as working on pencilling and inking a series called Coldblood 7 for Marvel. It seems like something interesting you could cover here, somehow.)
And thanks to Keith for the info about "Ev'ry Little Bug". Although I SWEAR I read that it WAS recorded back in the '40s sometime. Maybe that's something to look into, Brian?

The Trans-Pacific Partnership and the Rise of China
What Japan Joining the TPP Means for the Region
On October 14, in a speech to the Economic Club of New York, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton heralded the United States' so-called pivot toward Asia, announcing, "The world's strategic and economic center of gravity is shifting east." Her remarks were part of a recent U.S. effort to reaffirm the United States' role as a Pacific power, a response to worries among Asia-Pacific states about the rise of China and the United States' long-term commitment to the region. U.S. President Barack Obama will reinforce this message later this month when he visits several Asian capitals and hosts the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in Hawaii. Central to this regional policy is trade: with Congressional approval of the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement now behind him, Obama seeks to cement the United States' economic role in Asia by finalizing the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement, a free trade pact currently being negotiated by Australia, Brunei, Chile, Malaysia, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States, and Vietnam.
When the negotiations are completed, the TPP agreement will bring most import tariffs on trade within the group to zero over a ten-year period. In addition to the merchandise traditionally included in previous such pacts, the TPP will cover services, intellectual property, investments, and state-owned enterprises, among other areas. Given its expansiveness, U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk has touted it as a "twenty-first century" agreement that will lead to a flourishing of regional trade.
But if the TPP were to remain as

Glossip Execution Postponed
"The man who bludgeoned Van Treese to death, Justin Sneed, testified that Glossip hired him for the murder. But jurors weren't presented with evidence that Sneed gave contradictory accounts to police about what happened, wrote Sister Helen Prejean, who ministers to prisoners on death row.
Prejean also noted the lack of evidence linking Glossip to the crime.
Glossip's scheduled death will also be the first in Oklahoma since a bitterly divided Supreme Court allowed the use of the drug midazolam in June.

Pride Asia row: Income Tax slaps penalty of Rs 270 cr on CHB

The Income Tax Department has slapped a whopping "penalty" of nearly Rs 270 crore on the Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) for not disclosing as "income" the money received from a deal with realtor Parsvnath.
Aggrieved, the CHB has challenged the order before an Income Tax Commissioner, the appellate authority in the case. Crying foul, the CHB has submitted that the penalty slapped by the Income Tax Department is grossly unfair since the original demand, made by the department, stands stayed by the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
It was in May this year that the High Court had stayed recovery of over Rs 300 crore by the Income Tax Department. In June 2010, the Income Tax Department had slapped notices on the CHB to cough up over Rs 300 crore as income tax on the amount it received from the deal with realtor Parsvnath.
The stay was granted by the High Court on an appeal filed by the CHB. The appeal was admitted and the recovery notices were stayed by the High Court till further orders. New Delhi-based realtor Parsvnath Developers Ltd's Pride Asia project in Chandigarh is stuck in arbitration with the CHB.
The project, which was expected to generate a revenue of Rs 4,500 crore, allegedly did not receive a portion of the 123-acre land committed by the CHB for the development of residential and commercial property. As per available information, Parsvnath had paid Rs 516 crore to the housing board between 2006 and 2008 as per the schedule in their agreement. The company had also invested close to Rs 300 crore on publicity and building of sample flats.
At Rs 7,150 per square feet, the cost of flats ranged from around Rs 50 lakh to Rs 2 crore. The project also offered penthouses and villas ranging from Rs 2 crore and Rs 6 crore. However, construction could not be taken up due to arbitration even as the buyer-seller agreements were signed in 2008.

Thousands of conservatives are in Washington this weekend to hear the GOP presidential candidates make a pitch for their votes.
With the race in constant flux--a different candidate seems to be the frontrunner every other week--the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) could be a make-it-or-break-it moment for any of them.
Rick Santorum, who bills himself as the purest conservative left in the race, could get enough of a bump from the movers and shakers at the convention that it transforms his newfound momentum into a nomination.
Mitt Romney, struggling to convince conservatives that he's one of them, is using the opportunity to put his conservative credentials on display in an attempt to win voters over. His speech could be a game changer--in either direction.
Newt Gingrich, vowing to stay in the race despite a dismal showing since his South Carolina win, will speak Friday afternoon. Gingrich has maintained that Super Tuesday, when Southern states begin voting, will put him back in contention, and will likely aim his speech at appealing to that segment of the country.
But even with a divided party, one unifying force will bring them all together this weekend: the determination to knock President Obama out of office.
After hearing all the speeches, those attending CPAC will make its conservative presidential pick Saturday night.

i enjoyed my stay and was impressed with the new managements desire to make me feel welcomed
We stayed here from 7/7/02 to 7/14/02. Two couples sharing a "condo". Upon arriving, no reservation could be found (altho they had been made many weeks in advance). The staff at the desk was nearly non existant and not knowledgable. Finally after the desk clerk called the manager on the phone was the necessary document confirming the reservation was found. The rooms were smelly, dirty and in severe disrepair. Walls were peeling, door to the outside did not fit and had gaps all around it. The carpet was filthy and stunk! We demanded that the carpet be cleaned. It was a day later and it was shampooed, did relieve the smell and took some of the dirt out, but still had major stains. The bath towels and washclothes were in very limited numbers and quite worn. Kitchen towels were what I would have used as rags at home. All the outdoor pools were not available, one empty and one filled with sand. Advertised bowling alley was not working. The exterior of the buildings were in terrible shape. Cleaning of the rooms was done only once in the entire week. My best advise, stay away from there!
I stayed at the Ingleside Resort from Sunday 7/21/02 to Wednesday 7/24/02. The following is what I found upon arrival. The rooms were in various states of disrepair. We had two rooms. In one room, the exhaust fan did not work, the door lock was worn out (sometimes you get in and sometimes not), the walls were peeling, the balcony door warped and hard to open. In the second adjoining room, the air conditioning was inadequate, the refrigerator broken, and the vent cover for the exhaust fell off on day one. The veranda style balcony overlooked the golf course and the mountains. It was a shame that the furniture consisted of a mix of old iron chairs and the $5 resin variety with no tables. Not very comfortable, although, the view was nice.The TV had six stations and the reception was poor. The guys were there for the golf and we girls were there to enjoy the pool and get some sun. While the golf course was nice and decently maintained, the pool(s) were not. The outdoor pool was closed on Monday morning for cleaning (it certainly needed it). The pool deck was cracked, weeds growing everywhere, the other outdoor pool was 3/4 filled with dirt and littered with trash; however, the kiddie pool was open. The indoor pool was also closed on Monday but was open Tuesday. The building housing the pool had been rented out to some company. Security guards were there and you needed a note from the front desk to go in. Since the chlorine odor was pungent and the outside deck was in full shade with no chairs, I abstained.The sandwich shop and bar was off limits to guests as it was also rented out. The restaurant featured a limited buffet and was overpriced. (Breakfast - $8.95)The tennis court was cracked. I never saw the horseshoe pits, hay ride, horseback riding, or any of the other amenities listed on the promotional package. The hotel staff's answer to all questions was "I don't know." The owner/manger was unavailable when I requested to speak to him.My list of complaints was long and if I spent more than 5 minutes in the lobby I ran into other guest with additional complaints and problems. The most fun I had was commiserating with these other guest.The best advise I have is to seek accommodations elsewhere.

The U.S. service sector expanded in March for the 16th straight month, although growth slowed from the previous month's pace, which was the fastest in more than five years.
The Institute for Supply Management, a private trade group, says its index of service-sector activity dropped to 57.3 last month, from 59.7 in February. That's the first drop in seven months. Still, any reading above 50 indicates expansion.
The sector employs about 90 percent of the work force, with a range of industries that include retail, health care, financial services and construction. The index plummeted to 37.6 in November 2008, at the height of the financial crisis.
Measures of new orders and employment also dropped. And respondents expressed concern about rising fuel prices.

What could possibly explain this weird behavior of email delivery?
Someone sent me an email message on February 16. I didn't received it neither immediately nor in the next days.
Then, out of the blue, EXACTLY 1 MONTH LATER (on March 16), I receive the message that he told me he sent on February 16.
I have seen bounced emails, I have seen lost emails, but I have never seen emails that get delivered exactly 1 month later.
Assuming that that guy indeed clicked the 'Send' button on February 16, what could possibly explain delivering it on March 16?

I am so excited to be able to share with you so many amazing new scents that are perfect for summer. Many of these are actually going to be year round favourites for me. I love discovering new scents! These are in no particular order. Aside from the first scent which is my hands down favourite. And what a surprise that was! The new Mugler Angel Muse Eau de Parfum ($78 CAD/30ml) is, of course, a gourmand scent. This fragrance is touted as being the first gourmand vetiver for women. Vetiver is one of my absolute favourite

Cate Blanchett had one of the most feminine and beautiful looks for the Golden Globes last night. Her gorgeous pink gown was perfectly complimented by the soft pretty makeup look created by Makeup Artist Jeanine Lobell. To achieve the look, Lobell used a combination of three Giorgio Armani Eye Tints ($38 US/$ CAD) instead of powder shadow to create a sheerer version of a traditional smokey eye. She started with Giorgio Armani Eye Tint in #12 Gold Ashes across the lid. She then used Giorgio Armani Eye Tint in #1 Obsidian instead
I am a luxury beauty lover. I'll admit that over the years it's become a little harder for me to justify the expense since I have such a vast collection already. But when I first really got hardcore into building my makeup collection it all started with purchasing luxury high-end and niche products online. Some of the products in my Top 10 Luxury Beauty Picks post are products that I have loved for years and are part of what got me into blogging and collecting beauty products. It was truly hard to narrow it down to only 10

In no particular order: Dior Vernis in Be Dior Le Metier de Beaute Eyeshadow in Fig Le Metier de Beaute Eyeshadow in Plum Chanel Joues Contraste Blush in Plum
I am a fragrance junkie. While I don't consider myself any kind of expert in deciphering notes and breaking down a scent, I thoroughly enjoy experiencing new scents, exploring new notes, and testing my boundaries. I find the ritual of trying a new scent for the first time, and experiencing it's evolution on my skin, intoxicating. At the same time I find the sensation of knowing I detect a note that is familiar, yet not being able to pinpoint it, very frustrating. But the more years that pass in my fragrance adventure the better I
The latest incarnation of Giorgio Armani Sì is the Giorgio Armani Sì Eau de Toilette ($75 US/$80 CAD for 1.7oz/50ml) released in February of 2015. It became my favorite summer scent from the moment I first experienced her. The original Si Eau de Parfum released in 2013 has the following notes: Top: Sicilian bergamot, Mandarin, Blackcurrant liqueur Heart: Rose de Mai, Neroli, Egyptian jasmine, Freesia Base: Patchouli, Woods, Amber, Orcanox, Vanilla The new Eau de Toilette adds in Pear Accord and Citrus to the Top notes,
Today the Top Ten Beauty Blogger Team is sharing our Top 10 Summer Beauty Products. There have been so many beautiful releases this season that it is tough narrowing it down to just ten. Here are my pics in no particular order. Urban Decay Afterglow Blushes ($26 US) Even the matte shades make your skin look like it's glowing from within. These blushes are nothing less than stunning. Urban Decay Revolution High Color Lip Glosses ($22 US) - The pigmentation and formula of these lipsticks are superb and the shades available
This week the Beauty Blogger Top Ten Tuesday team is sharing Top 10 Reds. I opted to go for Top Ten Red Lipsticks. I love a gorgeous red. Unfortunately I lack the confidence to wear one out of the house. I just feel like I have a spotlight on my lips saying "Hey you! Look at me!". Plus I find my mouth area in general not one I want to draw attention to. I wish I had the nerve because there is just something about a stunning red against fair skin and blue eyes that looks breathtaking. Just not on me! In no particular

The Giorgio Armani Holiday 2014 Orient Express Collection brings us four incredibly sexy red lip products. I have three of the four to share with you today. The first are the incredibly comfortable and lip nourishing Giorgio Armani Rouge Ecstasy Lipsticks ($38 CAD) in the shades 414 Pure Red and 634 Burgundy. They feature Armani Beauty's "CC" exclusive care and colour technology. They have a light floral scent. These lipsticks have what I'd consider an average wear time and do transfer so eating and drinking will of course
I love exploring new fragrances and digging out old favourites with the change in seasons. When the leaves turn, and the days turn cooler, we put the light fresh florals and darling fruity scents to the back of the shelf and bring out the warmer, spicier, sexier scents of fall. Scents that are deeper, richer, more opulent. I am excited to bring you an introduction to 14 new scents of fall 2014 for you to discover.

Giorgio Armani Orient Excess Holiday 2014 Collection Orient Excess Palette Review | Photos | Swatches
The star piece of the Giorgio Armani Orient Excess Holiday 2014 Collection is the Orient Excess Palette ($98 CAD). This is a two tiered face and eye palette containing a translucent matte white face powder and 3 eyeshadows and it comes in an absolutely beautiful midnight blue velvet clutch. Below is a picture of the clutch shown with a Rouge Ecstasy Lipstick to demonstrate the size. It is large enough to hold my iPhone 5, compact, and a lipstick along with some cash and cards. The beautiful midnight blue palette nestled
The Giorgio Armani Beauty Holiday 2014 Orient Excess Collection is all about contrast and purity, Armani sophistication. To celebrate the end of the year, the Orient Excess collection invites you on an exotic journey to the snowy steppes of the Far North. These immaculate plains, covered in frost and stretching as far as the eye can see, inspired Giorgio Armani Beauty to create a polar atmosphere through pure and intense make-up. Linda Cantello, International Make-Up Artist Giorgio Armani, has designed a high-impact make-up
The Giorgio Armani Fall 2014 Fade to Grey Collection ($20 US/$32 CAD) includes 4 new nail lacquers in shades of brown, plum, grey and bronze. They have a texture that is between silk and velvet. A finish that is between matte and satin. The unique texture is thanks to a formula that combines two resins and a polymer. They go on as a liquid gel and then becomes solid drying quickly. You can pretty much get away with one coat but I like two to help even out my nails which are a tad destroyed at the moment. I didn't think a brown
