Well get my plaid shirt, hoop earrings and clunky Timberland boots, because the second I slipped on the new NARS 413 Bleecker street Pure Matte Lipstick ($25), I felt like I’d just stepped out of a hot tub time maker set for 1995.
It was the Clueless decade, when Alicia Silverstone, Sugar Ray and little black backpacks were En vogue (just like the group!). colors like this matte rosy brown were all the rage. I remember wearing a similar shade to many (boring) college lectures on organic chemistry and physics.

This new NARS shade (I’m trying to find out if it’s permanent or limited edition) was created exclusively for the recent opening of the company’s first flagship store in the West village at 413 Bleecker street in new York City, and, at least for now, the store is the only place you can get it.
But if you’re nowhere near the big Apple, you can still get your paws on a tube without having to haul your cookies to NYC. one of the store’s makeup artists (Hey, Marco!) tells me they can take credit scores card orders over the phone. U.S. shipping will set you back $8 and takes between 5-7 service days. The store also ships internationally, but those fees will vary. Marco suggests stocking up on other products while you’re at it, you know, to get a lot more bang out of the cost of shipping.
If you’re interested, the number to call is (646) 459-2323.

A few a lot more amazing NARS goodies to consider…
NARS Unsung Hero: The Kalahari Eyeshadow Duo
Pro-Prime Smudge proof Eyeshadow Base (I love this!)
NARS spring 2011: incredibly Orgasm and Angelika Lip Glosses Usher in the season Early
413 Bleecker joins the NARS Pure Mattes lipstick family, a relatively new line which launched last summer. like the other colors I’ve tried, it feels soft and smooth on my lips, and I think it looks wonderful in pics.
Here I’m wearing it with the NARS Kalahari Eyeshadow Duo and NARS Sex appeal Blush.
I bet it would also rock the socks off of looks with smokey brown or gray eyes — or maybe even a clean, nude eye with black liquid liner and lots of mascara.
Since it’s a brown lippie, pairing it with brown blush could cause brown overload, so consider adding a pop of something bright like pink on the cheeks to liven it up. NARS Mata Hari (a rose petal pink) or desire (a cotton candy pink) must look really cute!
Pris: $ 25
AVAILABILITY: available now at the NARS boutique on 413 Bleecker street in new York City, or by phone to (646) 459-2323.

Last night reader Amber and I were chatting in the comments about dresses, and she recommended a designer called Suzi Chin for Maggie boutique (available at Nordstrom stores). I taken a look at some of their clothes online last night, and gurl, I’m in . incredibly cute and relatively affordable. I’ve got my eye on these two numbers for spring…
Ruched stretch Satin Dress, $158
Boutique lace shift Dress, $159
I really like the second one…but I’m terrified I’ll look like a walking tablecloth with it on, haha!
