Time For Tom!

TODAY!! It is here!! The Launch of Tom Ford's "Private Blend Lip Color Collection!"

Today, the former Gucci Designer and renowned Fragrance Maven, Mr. Ford has launched his lipstick line in 12 AMAZING colors. They range from earthy-pale tones called "Vanilla Suede" to more darker tones called "Black Orchid."

One color which will sell out in seconds, is the highly publicized and Ford's favorite shade, "Cherry Lush", that is featured on the lips of the model on the display.

Some Saks locations already sold over $1,000 worth of the product minutes after it was displayed.

But don't worry, unlike some designers that over-saturate every category in the industry (Ed Hardy), Tom Ford is staying true to his roots, his fragrance roots that is.

The lip colors, unlike other competitors, are scentless. But, like I said Tom Ford is sticking close to what he is good at. Ford has conveniently made a genius move, but are we surprised? He has made, purse-sized index cards, of his own fragrances that match each lipstick hue. For example, Smoke Red lipstick goes with Tobacco Vanilla perfume. Etc.

Ford recently said to WWD, "I took the most universally flattering colors that a woman can wear, and then I re-imagined them in a modern and authoritative way." Of course he did.

Each lipstick is in a rectangular white and gold tube with the initials 'TF' engraved on top each color. You can find Tom Ford's "Private Blend Lip Color Collection," at any Saks and Neiman's locations, in the fragrance departments. For $45 you can have the most decadent and glamorous lipstick line, who would pass that up?
