Set in the Californian desert, Palm Springs is surrounded in all directions by mountains. The dry climate, endless sunshine and proximity to Los Angeles in the days before smart phones meant it developed as a resort town and playground for Hollywood’s elite. The Rat Pack partied without restraint,

I came across this picture and fell in love with the makeup. The look is both classic and vibrant. So, if you want to add a pop of colour without going too dramatic, this is definitely a look you are going to want to try! After seeing this picture, I starting going through my makeup collection to find the right colours for this look, and came across a NYC duo that is absolutely perfect. New York Color, City Duet Eyeshadows, 810B, Upper Zest Side. Here is a slightly more wearable version of the look above. Feel free to add a little more drama by really packing on colour and/or really exaggerating the shape of the shadow if you so wish! STEP 1: Moisturize and apply a primer to smooth out skin STEP 2: Apply your foundation to even out skin tone. Since this look is all about warm colours, so if you have a foundation a shade deeper than you normally use, go for it! Also, aim for a foundation with medium coverage. The skin in the inspiration picture is very natural and glowy, so keep that in mind. STEP 3: Apply concealer to any spots with redness, (ie blemishes or around the nose) and under eyes. STEP 4: Fill in your eyebrows. The brows in this look are natural but well shaped. Don't go too dark when filling in the brows and be sure to focus on shape rather than filling them in fully. STEP 5: Using a large bronzer or powder brush, apply a matte bronzer on the cheeks, temple, forehead, nose, chin and under the jaw line - anywhere the sun would naturally hit. STEP 6: Add a small amount of a warm toned blush onto the cheeks, however, not on the apples of the cheeks. STEP 7: Using the yellow eyeshadow, sweep the colour across the lid, leaving out the inner corner of the eye. STEP 8: Using the orange colour, apply starting from the outer corner of the eye, moving inward - you will be using this colour on the crease as well as the outer corner. Blend the outer corner so the shape wings out. Blend the orange and yellow together slightly on the lid. STEP 9: Add a white or pale gold shadow to the inner corner of the eye. STEP 10: Using liquid or gel liner, start lining the eye, but leave out the inner corner. The line should be thick and winged out at the end. STEP 11: Add two coats of mascara on the upper lashes, and one coat on the bottom lashes. STEP 12: Line lips with a nude lip liner and apply a matte brown. Aim for a warm brown that isn't too dark or too light. You want the focus to be on the eyes, but you don't want to wash out the lips. STEP 13: Using a cream or powder highlight, apply liberally to the apples of your cheeks, chin, cupids bow, and nose. Remember, this look is very glowy! STEP 14: Spray your face with a setting spray to keep the look in place. STEP 15: You're all set! Go out and look amazing!

I'm sorry to say that still to this day, I associate Acapulco with The Love Boat. Sad, but true. But in the mid-twentieth century, the Mexican resort town was a hot bed of social swells, models, and movie stars who basked in both the sun and the limelight, partying practically non-stop while wearing very chic resort wear. Or so it seems that way to me. According to Slim Aarons, the most popular person in Acapulco was actress Merle Oberon. Aarons also mentioned that Oberon's Mexican villa, La Consentida, was considered to be one of the most beautiful resort houses anywhere. (I'll show photos of her villa on Monday.) And it seems that others agreed with Aarons' assessment, including Town & Country, which also touted her as one of Acapulco's most gracious hostesses, although the magazine referred to her by her married name, Mrs. Bruno Pagliai. I admit that when I first saw the T&C piece, I didn't make the connection. There were lots of other socialites who spent time in Acapulco, including Baron de Redé, Emilio Pucci, and Mrs. Yul Brynner, all of whom were photographed by Aarons while dancing, drinking, and having an all-around good time. Image at top: Guests gather at the home of Merle Oberon. That looks like Oberon, the second from the right. Mrs. Bruno Pagliai, aka Merle Oberon, in her Acapulco home Andrew Goodman of Bergdorf Goodman From left, Suzy Gilly, Anita Colby, Mary Wells Lawrence, Sloan Simpson, and Mrs. Yul Brynner There was certainly a lot of bare flesh at this party, which took place at the home of Melchor Perusquia. Marie-Hélène de Rothschild and Baron de Redé. De Rothschild looks demure compared to the others. Wouldn't we all have liked to attend this luncheon hosted by Pat de Cicco, especially considering that Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Oscar de la Renta, Reed Vreeland, and Emilio Pucci can all be spotted in this photo. (You might recall that de Cicco was the ex-husband of Gloria Vanderbilt.)
