The blog Beauty Blogging Junkie is a universal common denominator in beauty. Not only does every blogger that I know look up to writer Amber Katz for her grammatically correct, HILARE and pop-culture-heavy writing style, so does every beauty pro. Plus, even after the great Hair Odyssey of 2010, her locks are envied far and wide.

It's these reasons and more that made Amber the perfect subject for What's in HER Bag? In her own words, here's what she's carrying around on a daily basis in her Cha Cha leather tote:

• Marc Jacobs orange metallic wallet
• Orbit Gum in Peppermint (this is never NOT on Glamber)
• Kiehl's Lip Balm #1 (I put lip balm on approximately 192 times a day)
• Keys with Bloom Key Chain Lip Gloss in Tangerine (so I can be assured I'll always have something to put on my lips, despite that I carry around a collection of lippies that rival Bergdorf Goodman's)
• Tiffany Patent Leather Business Card Case in Red (to match BBJ! Unfortunately, the red was limited edition and no longer available)
• Fresh Sugar Rose Lip Balm
• Sonia Kashuk Super Sheer Liquid Tint in Poppy (I get pale VERY easily)
• Tory Burch Plastic Square Sunglasses (I know I'm in the minority here, but I find Tory B's excessive use of her enormous logo vulgar. These subtle sunnies boast the teensiest label so I don't have to feel like a walking billboard)
• CHANEL Rouge Coco Lipstick in Legende
• Lipstick Queen Sheer Lipstick in Medieval (a staple of mine for years; it always establishes bag real estate)
• Lancome Lipstick in Chris and Tell (the perfect coral)
• Ellis Faas Ellis Red Lip Color
• Lisa Hoffman Japanese Agarwood Limited Edition 2-vial Fragrance Set
• Mini Benefit Posietint (I use this as blush and lip stain on the go)
• Tarte Dark Circle Defense Concealer (concealer needs to be reapplied during the day. A sad but real truth)
• Shobha Hand Sanitizer (straphanging is gross)

How does your bag compare?

None other than Miss Piggy herself was recently spotted at the Marc Jacobs showroom in SoHo - apparently, the duo were reviewing Marc's looks for Fashion Week!

The two just "collaborated" on a couture gown (pictured below) for Miss Piggy, which she'll be wearing this week to Glamorama in Chicago.

Cheeseball, I know...but adorable too, yes?  Gotta love Miss Piggy!

My Marc Jacobs mouse flats (he does a different pair each season) may not be for everyone, but they bring a smile to my face every time I wear them. Kids go absolutely nuts for them too, especially on the subway.

Do you have any whimsical pieces in your wardrobe?  Tell me in the comments!

I'm anxiously awaiting the start of TWO sales at ideeli this week - Marc Jacobs, set to start on Thursday, and Tom Ford, which has a top-secret start time.

There was a time when I just could not get enough Marc Jacobs. And like every New York gal that should be spending her money on rent, not designer goodies, I satisfied those naughty desires by venturing into the world of fragrance. Heavy on the gardenia and jasmine, Marc Jacobs, the bolder Essence and later Blush were staples in my scent wardrobe.

His brand-spanking new releases are quite the departure. Three spring & summer ready splashes-Cotton,Grass and Rain (pictured)- are light, fresh and incredibly, deliciously clean. Meaning, you'll smell fabulous but natural. Far more seductive than a heavy perfume, no doubt.

Sold in huge 10oz glass bottles but with a lasting power similar to many eau de parfums, they're actually quite the value. How will you ever choose?

As a longtime fashion whore, I'm accustomed to pain. I'll crawl to the ends of the earth...or you know, down Broadway, wearing Christian Louboutin Helmuts (4 inches!) or Marc Jacobs ballet flats that are just a tad too small. But even I have hit a breaking point.

This season, I've decided to find shoes that offer height and style without the side of agony.

Enter the Thready Bear (oy, your guess is as good as mine...) by Aerosoles. Metallic bronze or natural (not pictured) are calling my name...loudly.

Complete with a 3" wedge heel and a fully flexible sole, I plan on pounding the pavement in style this summer.
