Go for the gold!



With the drama of Olympic athletes taking their place on the medal podiums in London, everyone wants to show their team spirit. But you don’t have to limit your patriotism to donning red, white and blue.

Take a cue from the games’ gold, silver and bronze medalists and look like a winner by adding a glimmer of metallics to your vanity. You won’t need a podium to stand out from the crowd.


This beautiful oversize compact by Guerlain Terracotta is rich with iridescence that illuminates face, shoulders, neck and décolletage. Perfect to accompany a summer tan; $69 at Neiman Marcus.


Butter London has come up with a commemorative Olympic Heavy Medal Collection of nail enamels dubbed, in eccentric Brit style, “The Old Bill” (bronze), “Diamond Geezer” (silver) and “The Full Monty” (gold). The trio is $36 at Nordstrom.
