Ee gads! I'm speechless. Renowned American designer Norma Kamali is bringing her expertise to Wallyworld. I didn't see this coming, although come to think of it, she already has a collection for Spiegel and the lower-priced Norma Kamali for Everlast collection. But still, it's like, Diane von Furstenberg for Target or something. Eerie, right?

Either way, we like the sound of this collaboration, and yes, Wal-Mart will have effectively seduced this frugal fashionista to cross that murky consumer threshold and shop their depressing big-box once the collection hits the racks.

From WWD.com: In a deal via Cherokee Inc., Kamali will create an exclusive collection that will include women's wear, children's clothing, accessories, footwear and home items.

Makeup that blends rich color with a touch of gold is enough to make any girl blush. The Budget Beauty Babe reviews Revlon's Limited Edition cosmetic treat for your cheeks. —BB

I'm a big fan of blush. Even if you don't wear any other makeup, a swipe of good blush can bring life and vibrancy to your complexion and face. While meandering through the cosmetics isle (which you will find me doing often) I found a collection of lovely blushes by Revlon that not only offer lush berry shades, but also give you a hint of gold glimmer: Revlon Golden Affair Limited Edition Sculpting Blush.

I scooped up a nice rich shade called Berry Daring, and fell in love. I love makeup that is saturated with enough color that a little goes a long way, and that happens here. The lightest swipe across this beautiful compact provides you with enough color to give subtle warmth to your face. And I just love the little gold insets in the blush. Adding subtle gold shimmer gives dimension and depth to that area of the face, without being loud or tacky.

Revlon Golden Affair Limited Edition Sculpting Blush in Berry Daring is a definite pick-up in my book. You won't be disappointed!
