TREND REPORT
Spring 2007 Trend: Short Dresses The mini-dress is back for 2007. Black, white, lace, patterned, color-blocked, voluminous or jewel-toned, this dress is the silhouette of the season, just as long as it’s short. And if it has pockets, even better! This shape is perfect dressed up (with sky-high platforms - another big look for spring) or casual (try ballet flats or gladiator sandals). Look for fun variations, like a boxy ‘60s look, strapless goddess-y versions, or a simple shift style. Whatever style you choose, make sure you choose one to wear this spring.

BEAUTY NEWS
Skyn Iceland Arctic Face Mist
Skyn Iceland Arctic Face Mist, Sephora, $35 Skyn Iceland is one of the newest skin care lines to be carried by Sephora. Its motto is “solutions for stressed skin.” Think about it - when we get stressed (traffic, job, boyfriends, husbands) our skin gets stressed too. The products in the Skyn Iceland line address stressed, damaged skin. The Arctic Face Mist is an easy-to-use spray that tones and soothes irritated skin. If your skin is feeling stressed out (inflamed, itchy, red), just spray onto your face for an instant feeling of icy cool. Not only does it cool your face, but the texture and tone of the skin will improve and you’ll be left with a healthy glow. Keep it in your bag, and just spritz whenever you get stressed! It might not solve the problem at hand, but your skin will be fresh and fabulous.
