Tom Ford ~ Cherry Lush

Although I am not one to wear red lipstick on a daily basis, I still enjoy this classic look for a night out with my girlfriends or especially on date nights with my hubby. And truth be told, if I am going to be bold enough to rock the red lips, I'm going to do so in the best possible way; Tom Ford's cherry lush lipstick does just that and then some.

Domestic Goddess: Glassware 101

Red Wineglasses   

• These glasses have a rounder, wider bowl, which gives wine a chance to breathe.
• A Bordeaux glass is tall with a wide bowl and designed for full-bodied reds like Cabernet and Merlot. It helps guide wine to the back of the mouth.
• Burgundy glasses have larger bowls than Bordeaux glasses and are perfect for wines like Pinot Noir. The glass helps guide wine to the tip of the tongue.

White Wineglasses

• White wineglasses are narrow with semi-straight or tulip-shaped sides; the shape allows the chilled wine to retain its temperature longer.
• The smaller bowl of the glass means less contact between the hand and the glass so body heat doesn’t transfer as easily to the wine.

Water Goblets    

• Look for ones that have larger bowls than your wineglasses.
• Try the glasses out to see if you like the feel of them.
• Consider ordering other styles, like colored or etched goblets, to really spice up the table.

Champagne Flutes

• Champagne flutes are identified by a long stem with a tall, narrow bowl on top, and they’re taller and thinner than other types of wineglasses.
• The shape is designed to keep bubbly well carbonated and at the right temperature.
• Look for ones with extra-long stems, which resemble a trumpet-shape.
• The bowls should extend close to the base of the glass.
• Available in glass or crystal -- use glass for entertaining and crystal for special occasions.

Double Old-Fashioned Glasses

• Double old-fashioned glasses look like old-fashioned glasses but are double the size.
• They’re usually used for serving straight alcohol such as Scotch, vodka on the rocks, or other premium liqueur drinks.
• Available in either round or square shapes.
• Usually holds about eight to ten ounces of liquid.
• Also referred to as rocks glasses.

Margarita Glasses

• An exaggerated rim, which measures five inches in diameter, makes it easy to dip into salt.
• Should hold about 12 to 20 ounces of liquid.
• You may want plastic or acrylic glasses if you plan to entertain outdoors often.

Martini Glasses

• It’s easy to identify these classic glasses by their "Y" shape.
• The double martini glass stands taller and wider at the opening.
• Depending on your style, you may want a classic look, or you may like decorative glasses or funky-shaped stems.

Pilsner Glasses

• Pilsner glasses are similar to pint glasses but are slightly smaller and usually identified by the short neck on the bottom.

Juice Glasses

• These are shorter and thinner than normal water glasses and perfect for serving orange juice and other fruit drinks.

Highball Glasses

• Highball glasses stand taller than old-fashioned glasses.
• They’re tall, narrow, and used to serve mixed drinks like rum and Coke, vodka and tonic, and screwdrivers.

Seven-Piece Bar Tool Set

• Double jigger: for measuring liquor. A jigger is the size of a shot.
• Ice spoon: for picking out cubes or stirring a mixed drink. Select one with a long neck.
• Citrus knife: for peeling fruit and removing pith.
• Bottle opener: for removing both metal bottle caps as well as corks from wine bottles.
• Strainer: for removing ice from a mixed drink after it’s been shaken. Go for the metal version because it’s the sturdiest.
• Olive fork: for serving olives or picking them out of the jar.

Like many of you, I have spent countless hours watching Sex and the City episodes trying to wrap my head around the glorious world of fashion that was featured on the show.

Red Shoes

Red shoes are my absolute favourite way to spice up any outfit, whether for the daytime or night out they always make everything look better. Theres is something about them that screams femininity, sexiness, and sass!

I adore pairing red shoes and accessories with single coloured outfits. It emphasizes their character and shows off their features even more. As always, Blake Lively looks stunning in this gorgeous ensemble. It is my belief that the simpler and minimal you keep your outfits, the classier will be your the overall look. This gorgeous off-white sheer polka dotted blouse, white skinny jeans with side ankle zipper detail, along with the simple hair and makeup draw out the beauty and sexiness of the red shoes more than anything else.
