From Cashmere to Cosmetics?


Now that I finally have some spare time--it's time to catch up on blogging!


When I think cashmere, scarves, Fall or Winter, automatically Burberry comes to mind. Who doesn't love the simplicity of their pattern, high quality cashmere (oh-so soft), and the fact that it's London based is an extra plus in my book. Rumor has it that Burberry has now decided to expand their empire to include cosmetics--and guess what? It's true! At first thought, this seems like quite a stretch, I mean how many fashion/apparel lines have ventured out of their comfort zone and failed miserably? However, in my opinion, Burberry has proven themselves outside of apparel and accessories with the launch of their first fragrance, Touch, which was accessible to both men and women in the beginning of the 21st century. In 2003, they presented another fragrance for women called Brit (which is one of my faves!). The bottle for Brit was luxuriously patterned with the famous plaid logo launched a men’s version in 2004--which of course, my daddy has! 
The cosmetics line--which is dated to debut in July 2010--will be carried at Nordstrom, which is always exciting news for a Nordy's girl, like myself. Here are some of the deets I snagged from bellasugar
Philippe Benacin, chairman and managing director of Inter Parfums SA, says the collection will be "a complete color line with about 100 references for eyes, lips, and skin" .
100 references? They don't mess around. I wonder what the colors will consist of? Perhaps on the more neutral, classic side--like their model Emma Watson? I would love to see that! Oh the possibilities are endless. All I know is Burberry is an A+ in my book so I don't see why their cosmetics line would be anything less than the best--something to look forward to in 2010, bellas! Besides the Harry Potter movie releasing in November 2010, of course. (I had to throw one Harry Potter reference in there).


Hope you all are having a fabulous day!
