Mad For Brad: Get Glam With Kate Spade's Super Stylist And Nordstrom's

Do you know Brad? He's the cutie that was Rachel Zoe's right hand man for several years. I fell in love with him on her show, and the affair continued when Brad starred in his own show.  Brad Goreski now is now the brand stylist for Kate Spade New York. Not a bad gig, huh? Nordstrom's likes Brad, too, and introduces us to Brad with this clever conversation with himself. 

Meet Brad

 Let's See What's In Store and On-Line

Brad likes to add a surprise to every outfit.  In this case, a nautical boatneck, Kate's Mazie Top is paired with Paige Denim's Splatter Skinny Jeans, Kate's perfectly pointed Lello Pumps, and a pink Crossbody for a pop of color.  Each piece is a surprise!  Get the look HERE.

Borrowing From Brad

It pays to read your emails. Believe it or not, I get about 500 a day, and I eventually read every one of them.  Today's mail from Brad Goreski, head stylist at Kate Spade, included a sweet treat from Season One of It's a Brad Brad World. If you enjoyed the Oscar's musical presentation if Les Miz, you'll love this backyard flash mob performance from last season's  

It's a Brad Brad World.  

I could watch it over and over again. 

Can you imagine someone planning this for you?

Season Two begins on March 6th. 

I am so there.

Kate Spade's designs.  Here are some of my favorite pieces that "say" Brad.

Red Carpet Ready

The Academy Awards are one day away.  My guess is the hardest reservation to get in Hollywood today, is any seat with a facialist, personal shopper, hairstylist, eyebrow guru, or plastic surgeon.  It takes a village to get red carpet ready like Brad and Angelina.

So how do us mere mortals get that special look? Here are  some red carpet secrets that will have us all shining like the stars.

Start with glowing skin.  Facialist to the stars is skincare guru, Kate Somerville. I have been to

her Los Angeles salon, and used her products.

They were game changers for my face.  Click to see her picks for a red carpet complexion:

Then you need a professional brow.  If you

can't make it to the salon of brow guru, Anastasia of Beverly Hills, which will cost you $45 and up...get the look with her collection from Sephora.

No jiggle while you wiggle!

Beyonce is known to go on stage wearing

three pairs of Spanx. Comfort be damned...

this modern miracle works. Bare Necessities

has over 140 styles to choose from for both 

men and women

Have you seen the mani-cams on the runway?

It's a silly little prop to give props to the

talented manicurists in Los Angeles. I love

the new trend of a single glittered or jeweled nail, if done right. Consider something classy and go for it.

Many starlets on the red carpet will carry a fabulous Judith Leiber little bag.  The price

tag is in the thousands.  But you can get the look for much less. A dressy clutch will never

go out of style, so it might be worth the investment.  Here are two to love.

Or Amici's Lurex Hard Case Bow Clutch for

$29.99 at South Moon Under

Golden Glams

There probably isn't an actor or actress

on Sunday's carpet that hasn't been tanned in some fashion.  If you can't have the service 

done in your own home....give Bare Minerals

a chance.  It has never disappointed me. For

me, it is all about the application brush. Nothing

touches your hands or nails. Find the set at

QVC

Brad Goreski, Kate Spade head stylist, has a few more tips to get us all Red Carpet Ready, as seen on Good Morning America this week.

Enjoy the show. I'll be reporting on it next week.
