Milly for Clinique 8-Piece Gift Set

by Diana Ajih on February 10, 2010

in beauty

Clinique is collaborating with Milly designer, Michelle Smith to start off their spring beauty collection with a 8-piece gift set including a free Milly cosmetics bag. It serves as a fold over clutch that to me gives off a retro vibe. Milly by Michelle Smith loves using colors of the rainbow in her clothing line so it makes perfect since to add a bit of her style to the cosmetics bag.

“Colour plays center stage in my collections,” said Michelle.  “The bright, fun print of the new Milly for Clinique bag makes me excited for spring.”

The 8-piece set is free with any Clinique purchase of $25 or more and is available exclusively at Bloomingdales from Feb 7-21.

Bloomingdales will also celebrate this collaboration by hosting Girls’ Night Out this Thursday, February 11. Stop by and enjoy champagne, makeovers, and a mini fashion show. Michelle will be there too giving away an autographed cosmetic bag!

The event will take place in NYC at the 59th and Lexington Ave location at the Clinique counter from 5pm-7pm.
