Backstage At Whitney Port's Fashion Show!

Backstage at Whitney Eve (that would be Whitney, as in our favorite girl from The City, thank you very much), we asked the designer to spill her beauty vision for her debut collection:

"I wanted the lips to be the main focus and then bright, open eyes with a little shimmer, and a peachy-pinky cheek because everybody looks good with that," she said.

Makeup artist Tina Turnbow made it all happen with white eye shadow, hot pink lipstick, and "lots and lots" of NYX Doll Eye Mascara.

And because Whit and lead hairstylist Jeanie Syfu didn't want the hair to compete with the clothes, they went for a "casual, simple, not too severe" ponytail. (It's super easy to recreate too: Just load up your hair with Tresemmé 24 Hour Body mousse, rake it back, then add a little texture with a one-inch curling iron.)

And, of course, we couldn't resist asking Miss Port for a few of her own beauty must-haves. Turns out she's a fan of Laura Mercier bronzer, Nars Blush in Desire and Orgasm, Chanel lipstick in Coco Pink, and (a girl after our own heart) affordable mascara. "For the amount of times you need to restock mascara, I don't want to keep spending $30," she said. "I'll just go to the drugstore and buy Cover Girl or something." Love. Her.
