Discovered: A low-maintenance secret for high-maintenance girls!

The CARGO Vacation Makeup Box covers all the bases–a rainbow of eyeshadows, 3 gloss shades, bronzer and mascara–in the most portable compact kit possible.

The thin-as-a-mint tin package and the throwaway doses really set this kit apart from the, ahem, packet.

$35 at Sephora

Trendscape: Short Sleeved Button Up Shirt

No longer the province of middle managers, the short sleeved button up shirt is back with a vengeance.  This adorably nerdy shirt is riding off the geek chic trend that has permeated the runways for the past couple of seasons.  Expect this shirt to stick around for at least a couple more.

Michael Kors Weekend Tote

If I hadn’t recently blown $250 on a Goldenbleu travel bag (I had to–it was market down from $699!), I would definitely have my eyes on this prize.

This weekender’s black leather straps and streamlined, sporty style will match just perfectly with that ski bunny outfit you’re planning to wear this weekend in Tahoe.

$395 at Vivre.

Trendscape: Op Art Prints

Black and white patterns and bright colors look exceedingly fresh these days.  But remember, it’s 2006, not 1966—to keep this 1960s trend looking modern, try pairing an op art print with solid colors.
