INSTAGRAM CHIC: LADY GAGA TAKES A SWIM IN LALI + LAYLA, RETROSUPERFUTURE & CHANEL
Yesterday social media went crazy for the newest post from Lady Gaga’s Instagram profile. Check out the sexy bikini our girl showed her figure off in!
The Italian-American fashionista really has an impressive collection of swimwear.
She opted for the Lali + Layla Stella star-shaped halter wrap style top ($69) and the matching Hazel bottoms with extra long strings, both in the color “Cherrybomb”. The latter is, unfortunately, sold out.
Shop:
Lali + Layla “Stella” Top ($69.00)
Her sunnies you ask? The Nicolou from RetroSuperFuture’s Andy Warhol Foundation illustrated series, the fruit of a collaboration with the Museum of Modern Art. She last wore these in 2016!
One of her necklaces is Laura Lombardi’s 14k gold-plated Rolo chain necklace. Unfortunately, this one’s sold out.
I wasn’t able to find the exact one yet but Gagaloo also sported a vintage Chanel gold-tone ID plates belt with chains.
On her lips, she wore the Haus Laboratories RIP lip liner in the shades “Neat” and “Slayer” ($16 each) and the PhD Hybrid lip oil stain in “Neutral” ($24).
Shop:
Haus Laboratories “RIP” Lip Liner ($16.00)
Haus Laboratories “PhD Hybrid” Lip Oil Stain ($24.00)

Everyday Makeup Products for Zoom School
Learn in a beautiful way with everyday makeup products
Remember that feeling of rolling out of bed and doing your 15-minute everyday makeup routine (thanks, YouTube!) before running out the door for school? Quarantine may have halted that last part, but an everyday makeup routine is just as essential now that you’re heading back to the classroom in a new way: over Zoom.
In fact, it’s probably even more important now to invest in the right concealer and lipstick shade when you’re learning in the virtual sense. The last thing you need is to look washed out or have blemishes accentuated by the HD camera on your Macbook, and everyday makeup can do wonders for your self-care and self esteem during these uncertain times.
Things are definitely a bit different at school than they were last year, but you can still wow your new classmates with beautiful everyday makeup. All you need is a bit of concealer, brow gel, and perhaps a bit of sparkle… and you can do it all while wearing pajamas. Mira is here with a bit of Beauty 101 as we share our favorite everyday makeup products to make a statement this school year.
Boy Brow by Glossier, $16
Fun fact: Boy Brow is Glossier’s best selling product of all time. Why? Because it’s the everyday makeup product that makes everybody feel beautiful and on their best brow game. This brushable, creamy wax gives you impeccable arches that look completely natural, yet perfectly precise. You could tell your virtual classmates over Zoom that you’re not wearing any makeup products and just woke up like this, even if it’s definitely not true, because Boy Brow looks that effortless and will be your best brow secret throughout the rest of quarantine. Oh, and did we mention that it even contains Oleic Acid, Lecithin, and Atelocollagen to smooth and condition your brows?
Shape Tape Concealer by Tarte, $27
Every beauty influencer’s favorite concealer turns 20 this year, and believe us when we tell you that Shape Tape lives up to the hype. Very few makeup products cover dark circles and instantly brighten up your look the way this cult favorite does, and the top Mira ratings for blendability, hydration, and anti-creasing mean that you’ll always be able to say “bye bye” to dark under eyes and care for the delicate skin in this area. If you’re in the mood for a more advanced beauty look before class, this everyday makeup also works as a great highlighter when contouring your face!
Natural Matte Eyes Eye Shadow Palette by Too Faced, $59
When in quarantine, a little eyeshadow can go a long way in making you feel pretty. Or in this case, own your pretty with one of your favorite pink and powerful beauty brands. Natural Matte Eyes Eye Shadow Palette has 30 shimmer and matte shades to beautifully blend your everyday makeup looks for more than a few compliments on your Zoom call. Eyeshadow isn’t as much effort as you may think, as you can just add a simple wash of color over your lids for an instant boost of beauty. Or you know, show off your skills with a magnificent halo eye or cut crease… there are no rules in everyday makeup!
Extra Illuminating Moisture Balm by Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, $69
Casual reminder that staying inside doesn’t mean that you should skip out on your skincare routine. This is a time for sheet masks and a sparkly moisturizer, like this one from Bobbi Brown Cosmetics! It’s extra in the best way, made with ultra-fine pearl pigments to energize tired skin and restore your natural radiance. Wear it alone as it absorbs into the skin for your most gorgeous complexion, or get that dewy glow by wearing it under your foundation. It looks natural and radiant, yet extra at the same time. What more could you want in an everyday makeup product?
BB Cream by NYX Professional Makeup, $13
You can’t have a list of everyday makeup without BB cream, the #1 product to hydrate your skin and give you a dreamy, dewy glow with minimal effort. And you can always count on NYX to deliver affordable, high quality products that enhance (but don’t change!) your natural beauty. Apply this BB cream before a Zoom meeting for a burst of moisture and confidence.
Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 by Laura Mercier, $43
You may have heard that skincare comes before makeup, and while that’s generally true... you can totally have your tinted moisturizer and wear it too. This cult favorite by Laura Mercier has nearly perfect reviews on Mira Beauty, with guests writing that it lasts for hours, looks beautiful and bright, and feels extremely lightweight on your skin. All ages, all skin types, all different tastes in makeup, you’re sure to fall hard for this everyday makeup. It gives you a luminous glow that looks lovely on camera, and contains SPF to protect against sun damage even while staying inside.
Glow Kit - Sugar by Anastasia Beverly Hills, $40
Tinted moisturizer is ideal for subtle radiance, but you’ll need a highlighter to glow all out on your Zoom conference call. And don’t think it’s only for glam looks, as you can easily incorporate this sparkly must-have into your everyday makeup routine. Just sweep a bit onto your cheeks, nose, and forehead for a little shimmer that will definitely make you want to keep checking yourself out in the camera during your call (we’ve all done it,) or try a few highlighter hacks for something a little more subdued. Our favorites? A tiny dab of highlighter in the inner corners of your eyes to help you look instantly more awake and alert, or placing a bit of product in the Cupid’s bow area to fake a plumper pout.
Volum' Express The Colossal Big Shot Washable Mascara by Maybelline, $8
Here at Mira Beauty, mascara has a special place in our hearts. And also our beauty collections. It’s one of the best beginner products that many of us began using at the start of our makeup journey, and it’s never let us down when we want to look simply beautiful, but not too OTT. Even if you haven’t touched your falsies in months, a drugstore mascara like the Volum' Express The Colossal Big Shot by Maybelline can help frame your eyes and give you the long, luxurious lashes you desire. Just apply a coat or two and you’ll be good to go with any everyday makeup look!
Balm Dotcom by Glossier, $12
Ah, Glossier. The go-to beauty brand when you want to look natural, but still get that flawless skin that dreams, and Instagram filters, are made of. But you can’t get your lips get lonely either, which brings us to Balm Dotcom. This lip balm is packed with antioxidants and natural emollients to hydrate and nourish dry, chapped lips, and it’s available in seven flavors like Birthday and Coconut to make your Zoom calls more fun. Get a taste (literally) of natural beauty as this everyday makeup leaves a subtle tint and hydrates your pout with rich ingredients like Castor Oil, Beeswax, and Lanolin.
The Multiple by NARS, $39
Mood: all monochrome’ed out with nowhere to go. Except you know, a Zoom class with tons of people to compliment the beautiful color on your eyes, cheeks, and lips. As the name suggests, The Multiple by NARS is a multipurpose tool that saves you time and money while you apply one shimmery, spectacular shade onto every feature of your face. Celebrities love to own this look on the red carpet, and wearing it may just make you forget about the fact that you’ve been staying inside for months. Choose from a range of shades, including a shimmery tangerine like Puerto Vallarta, rose gold like G-Spot, or Copacabana for a sparkly pink, pearlescent hue that you’ll never want to put down.
Vitamin C Serum by Mario Badescu, $45
Your everyday makeup look needs a friend, and its name is Vitamin C. Many forget just how important this nutrient is, as it’s basically essential to the skin... yet isn’t produced naturally by the body. But don’t worry, there’s a serum for that. It’s made by your favorites at Mario Badescu (AKA, a VSCO girl’s favorite brand) to give your skin a burst of brightness while evening out complexion for better makeup application.
Matte Liquid Liner by NYX Professional Makeup, $8
There’s just something about eyeliner that can make you feel more put together, even when you’re really, really not. It’s one of Mira’s favorite everyday makeup products to put your eyes on full display throughout your conference call, and the options are endless with the Matte Liquid Liner by NYX. Use the felt tip pen to create an epic wing, or just apply a line on the top lid for simple beauty. At under $10, Matte Liquid Liner is used by tons of influencers and celebrity MUA’s. Why? Because the ultra-black, matte formula means that it won’t reflect the light in strange ways while on camera, making this liner perfect for your Zoom calls.
Glitter & Glow Liquid Eye Shadow by stila, $24
“This is seriously the best glitter eyeshadow I've ever used! The pigment is great, zero fall out, and stays on all day.” Mira reviews are all about the Liquid Eye Shadow by Stila, as it looks magnificent on your eyes and won’t give you the creasing or shadow fall out that most powders will. While this formula looks like it was made for more dramatic makeup looks, don’t let the shimmer fool you. More subtle shades like Wanderlust or Dollish create the illusion that you just spent an hour perfecting your sparkly eyeshadow, even though you spent like five minutes and it still looks perfect. Pair it with Stila’s Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner to be the true star of your conference call!
Insta-Blush by Revlon, $12
Living the cream. Or dream… probably both with this everyday makeup must-have by Revlon. The “Insta” in the name of this cream blush refers to several things. For one, it gives you a sheer, natural finish in seconds that suits any makeup look. It also looks subtle enough on camera to give you just the right amount of color on your Zoom calls, without looking too clown-like or risking the HD Macbook camera picking up any streaks. In fact, certain shades of the Insta-Blush are so lightweight and blendable that it can even double as a contour stick!
Brow Powder Duo by Anastasia Beverly Hills, $23
Don’t underestimate the power of powder. Brow powder, that is. Anastasia Beverly Hills is likely one of the first brands that come to mind when you hear the word “brows,” and for good reason. You won’t be disappointed with this long lasting and volumizing powder that lifts your arches and creates the ideal shape for everyday makeup. It’s been proven that brows are the most noticeable feature on your face, and you’ll draw attention in the best way with ABH in your collection.
From the classroom to Zoom, learn more about all your favorite everyday makeup products on Mira.

MAGPIE GOOSE
By creating a platform for artists to share their stories and customs through the medium of fashion, Laura Egan and Maggie McGowan bring Aboriginal culture to a wider audience.
Before co-founding Magpie Goose, Maggie McGowan was working as a Welfare Rights Lawyer with NAAJA, a not for profit legal and justice service established to help Aboriginal peoples. Her work involved regular outreach visits to remote communities, during which she formed relationships with aboriginal community members and artists. Motivated by a desire to create tangible alternatives to the punitive welfare system, and rampant poverty she found prevalent amongst Aboriginal communities, Maggie founded Magpie Goose to present new economic opportunities and hope.
The Aboriginal people of Australia have experienced a long and bitter plight. Parallel with Native Americans and other indigenous peoples around the world. Aborigines have a deep connection to their environment in contrast to colonial invaders that disrespected their wisdom, leaving native ecologies and cultures isolated and marginalized. But as consciousness grows within the next generations of Australians, so does a deeper sense of responsibility for the historical wrong-doing against Aboriginal peoples. Throughout the world, examples of entrepreneurs using their privilege to help marginalized communities are arising. The fashion social enterprise Magpie Goose is one of those stories.
Maggie’s co-founder Laura Egan has worked with remote Aboriginal communities since 2006, and formed Enterprise Learning Projects (ELP) in 2011 to enable the creation of new economic opportunities through enterprise. Over the last seven years working with ELP, she has supported many remote communities in Australia in achieving their business aspirations. Starting Magpie Goose was a natural extension of this work.
AGB interviewed the founders, Laura Egan and Maggie McGowan.
AGB: When you first started what was the biggest obstacle in your way?
MG: Neither of us had a background in fashion so we've had to learn everything along the way! There have been many challenges - probably the biggest was responding to all of the orders we received through our crowd funding campaign. We had set a target of $20,000 (we hit this in 24 hours) and the campaign finished with over $100,000 in pre-orders from over 600 backers.
AGB: Did you both need to move to the Northern Territory for this project?
MG: We are both based in Katherine, NT. I moved to the NT (Darwin) to work as a civil / welfare rights lawyer at the North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency (NAAJA) in 2013, and discovered the fabulous textiles through my remote travel and work. Laura has been in the NT for over 5 years, between Alice Springs and Katherine. Being in the NT for some time has helped us to establish good relationships with communities, art centers, and artists.
AGB: What kind of relationship do you have with the textile makers?: Palngun Wurnangat Aboriginal Corporation in Wadeye, Tiwi Design in Wurrumiyanga Bathurst Island, Injalak Arts in Gunbalanya and Bábbarra Women's Centre Maningrida, to name a few. Do you just buy their textiles as established businesses, or do you work with them on designs?
MG: These art centers are all established printing facilities - some of them have been designing textiles and screen-printing since the 1960s. Our process is that we visit the art center, browse their collection / back catalogue of designs on screens, choose designs and color ways (usually in collaboration with the artist or screen printers who work at the art center), and then commission meterage to be printed. There’s so many existing designs to choose from - some art centers have over 80 screens stored, which all tell unique stories of bush foods, art, culture, landscapes etc. There are also so many designs that are yet to be put on screen, and on textiles!
We’ve started running textile design workshops for artists who aren’t affiliated with art centers, to enable them to see their artwork being shared through fashion. We work with artists to help them understand the Magpie Goose brand/image, what designs might look good repeated on fabric, and made into clothing, and then leave them to it! Our new range, which we launched in March 2018, features four new designs created especially for Magpie Goose in Katherine in September 2017.
AGB: I love how you include the story behind the designs on your website, thereby giving customers an insight into Aboriginal beliefs and culture that they may have not known. Do you think Aboriginal studies are on the rise? Or is there’s still a long way to go?
MG: We think there’s a huge interest among non-aboriginal people, to connect with Aboriginal people. Fashion is a great way to make this connection - because everyone wears clothes! Why not wear something that makes you feel confident and fabulous, but also shares these incredible stories of culture, remote places, people, language etc. The clothes also start a conversation. People are interested to learn about Aboriginal languages, about kinship structures, about cultural ceremonies. You can learn so much when you just sit down, stop talking, and listen. AGB: It must be very empowering for the Aboriginal communities to be involved with the success of their work. Is there a story that encapsulates that spirit that you’d like to share?
MG: One of the most exciting parts of what we’re doing is taking the clothes back to the communities where they’re designed or printed, and showing the artists, the screen printers, and everyone else. People are so proud to see their designs made into clothing. They get such a kick out of knowing that people in Melbourne, Sydney, London or New York are wearing their designs! One story that stands out is when we went to Wurrumiyanga in the Tiwi Islands. Laura was telling artists and printers about wearing her pants made from the Pukumani Pole design in San Francisco. They couldn’t believe that people were chasing Laura down in the LAX airport, and asking her ‘where do those pants come from!?’ They all asked - "Do they even know where Tiwi Islands are?” “They do now!” said Laura.
Another beautiful experience was having two artists who have done designs for our new range - Nancy McDinny and Stewart Hoosan - both come to a recent pop-up shop in Darwin. Everyone who bought clothes featuring their designs was so excited to meet the actual artists who had designed the prints. They were taking photos with the artists, and listening to them talk about what the designs mean. Nancy and Stewart in turn got such a kick to see people loving their artwork, in the new format of ‘wearable art’/ fashion.
All garments are all made in Australia, with each design printed on cotton fabric.

2017 reading wrap-up
I don’t normally do this, but I figured that since this year was the first year I kept track of the books I read and also set a specific goal (1/3 books by authors of color), I thought it could be interesting to see what I read in 2017. And yeah, this is a little late but I didn’t have laptop over Christmas break so *shrug*.
I read 186 books total, with 73 being by authors of color. (That’s actually 11 more books than I needed to read, so yay for being an overachiever.) I think having a specific number to aim for helped me to diversify my reading and push me to read things I wouldn’t normally have read and I want to continue doing that. Of those 186 books, 108 had a person of color as a pov character and 61 had a LGBTQIAP+ main character. I think I’ll try to focus on reading more books with good disability representation next year because I only read 23 books with a disabled main character (not counting thrillers that used mental health as an an unreliable narrator plot twist because ugh).
I read mostly the same number of books (between 9-20) each month during school or summer, which surprised me since I normally think of myself as reading more during vacations. Also, I read 9 books when I should have been doing NaNoWriMo, which might explain why I didn’t finish..

MadWife (Mad Sweeney x Laura Moon): "You don't look so bad" extra points for jacket sharing
i waited for your heart to melt
AN: Four things:
I’m sorry I couldn’t write this right away! I have a feeling I might only have the time to bang out fic on Sundays.
Is Mad Wife the official pairing name for Mad Sweeney and Laura? I’ve been calling them Mad Moon but I could swing either way, as with most things in life. Mad Wife is actually cooler, imho.
This was so much fun to write lmfao. I realize now how vital curse words are to my vocabulary.
My pale ass has no clue how tanning works
ao3
The stench of rot and desperation ripens with the summerheat. Even with the cab’s windows cracked open and his nose pinched between hisfingers, Sweeney can’t escape Laura’s reek. If he closed the partition it would help tremendously, he’s sure, butsliding it shut would mean isolating himself from the dead wife and the cabbie.He’ll be damned if he affords them the opportunity to plot against him and runaway with his coin because of a little smell.
So the partition stays open, and the windows do too, andSweeney battles against his gag reflex when the wind blows the evidence of acorpse up his nostrils.
“Where’s that fucking mortician with the spray tan when youneed him,” Laura grumbles. She’s glaring at her reflection in the visor mirror,tracing spindly fingers against the gray of her cheeks. Her skin wrinkles liketissue paper where she touches it.
“Passed by a tanning salon ‘bout 69 miles back,” Sweeneymuses. He watches Laura’s lifeless eyes narrow in the mirror. “Could have madea stop there. Got in one of them sunbeds….”
Laura slams the visor shut. The force of her hand makes adent in the roof. From the driver’s seat, Salim makes a choking sound butdoesn’t comment.
“Oh, but that would make my job too easy for you, wouldn’tit?” Sweeney continues. “Melt you straight to the bone lickety-split. Iwouldn’t have to ride bitch with lover boy and the Reaper’s strong-arm, waitinguntil Horus’ right eye fillets ya-”
“Can you shut the fuck up?” Laura snaps. Her voice is raspynow, drier with every second her vocal cords disintegrate. It’s unfortunately,undeniably sexy. “I’ll tie your lips into a knot if I hear one more time howHelios is going to shoot flames up my ass for not giving you your fuckingpenny.”
Sweeney balks at her ignorance. “If it were a penny I’mafter I’d cash in your last measly paycheck, Dead Wife.”
Ignoring him, she kicks her legs up onto the cab’s dashboardand leans back in her seat. A waft of decay hits Sweeney in the face. “We needto stop at a drugstore,” Laura declares. “I need to buy shit.”
Salim nods his ascent without question. “We will take thenext exit and ask where to find one.”
“And what money will you be buying this shit with?” asksSweeney.
“You pull cash out of your dick, right?” Laura turns to himwith a slimy smile. “I’m sure we’ll figure something out.”
“Oh no, Dead Wife. You’ve taken enough from me.”
“Not your life,” she reminds him. “But I could kill you withone punch to the chest if I wanted.”
Sweeney weighs his options: spare his pride and lose hislife, or hand over some coins with his tail between his legs. Laura’s boneyfingers dig into the back of her seat where she grips it. The worn leathertears, stuffing popping out of the casing and springs poking out of theconfines. Salim makes the nearest exit with a strangled noise, glancing towhere Laura carelessly vandalizes his car.
Sparing the poor driver further agony, Sweeney holds hishands in the air. “Fine, you greedy little-”
Laura tears the entire shoulder of her seat off easy as apiece of bread.
Without another word, Sweeney plucks coin after coin fromnothing, tossing them at Laura who catches them with ungodly agility.
Despite driving them into the middle of Bumblefuck, Nowhere,Salim manages to locate a Duane Reade Laura deems worthy. They park in itspainfully suburban lot, and Sweeney is far too aware of how out of place thethree of them look in white bread America; the blazing red Irishman, the Muslimcab driver, and the dead girl with flies swarming her like their queen amblingout of a New York City taxi.
There’s no one around to see them besides the drunk drapedacross the hood of his Chevy, but Sweeney finds himself anxiously swattingpests away from Laura anyway.
She shoots him an embarrassed but grateful attempt at asmile.
“I won’t be longer than 30 minutes,” she tells them. “If Iam… I don’t know, come looking for me like you care or something.”
“We do care,” Salim assures her.
“Of course,” tacks on Sweeney, “you’re carrying all mydamned luck.”
It takes less than twenty minutes for Laura to complete hertransaction, but when she does, she comes out carrying what must be half thebeauty aisle.
“Christ, how much of my money did you spend?” asks Sweeney.
Laura doesn’t bother answering him. Instead, she jerks herhead to where the dumpsters sit in the shadows, signaling for him and Salim tofollow. Once hidden in the shade, she empties the contents of her bags on theasphalt and begins peeling off her clothes. Sweeney doesn’t pretend to tear hiseyes away from her naked tits. If Laura notices, she doesn’t care.
Respectfully, Salim keeps his eyes averted and toys with atube of mascara from her purchases.
Laura throws her thinning hair into a ponytail while Sweeneywatches her, picking up the new hair net she bought and tucking away herstraggly strands. “Open that.” She points to a metal can at Sweeney’s feet.
Grumbling and grimacing, he picks it up. The label reads Quicktan: Body Bronzer. “What the hellis this for?”
Laura is aggravatingly silent as she stands bare beforethem, hands set firmly on her hips. She stares straight ahead, over theirshoulders, at the cars driving by in the distance. Flies buzz around her in afilthy, vibrating halo.
“We’ll be seeing Shadow soon.” She says it casually, as shedoes everything, but there is a heaviness in her words that only bears itsweight when she mentions her husband.
Sweeney tosses the can between his hands, waiting for Laurato say more. She doesn’t.
“So, you want to look pretty for him, is that it?” he asks.There’s a twinge of something nasty in the pit of Sweeney’s stomach that hedoesn’t care to explain. “You made us waste time, go out of our way, so you canput on some makeup for your ex-husband?”
“He’s not my ex.”
“He’s not not yourex!”
“I don’t care what you have to say, alright? I look likeshit and I smell like shit, and I don’t want anyone to see me this way. Especiallyhim.”
Sweeney scoffs, laughing bitterly at the sky. If Shadowdidn’t want Laura after Ibis and Jacquel worked their magic, he still wouldn’twant her after a quick spray tan behind the dumpsters of a Duane Reade. Shadownever cared how pretty Laura looked at the end of it all, anyway. He only caredhow ugly her cruel beating heart was.
The irony, that it began changing only once it stoppedpumping in her chest.
“So are you going to help me spray this crap on?” asks Laura.“Or did I spend all your gold for nothing?”
It takes thirty minutes and three cans of self tanner toerase the gray from Laura’s skin. When the process is complete, she looks morelike an aging carrot than a human, but certainly less like death. While shewaits for it to dry, she applies her new makeup, painting her face back tolife.
Just barely, Sweeney can picture how breathtaking she musthave been before death. Nothing shining like the sun or moving like the ocean,but dark and rolling, fog creeping from the bay. Something for men at sea tolose themselves in.
“You can turn around, Salim.”
Fully dressed now, Laura unwraps her hair from the towel,letting it tumble over her shoulders. The tan is already faded from where herarm is stitched back to her body and she pokes at it gently, trying desperatelyto tamp down her distress at the sight.
It must be the will of a kinder god that compels Sweeney toshrug out of his denim jacket, huffing all the while, and hand it over to her.Confused, Laura accepts it, pulling it on over her flimsy racerback.
“You don’t look so bad,” Sweeney offers.
Laura sounds thoroughly pissed when she thanks him.
“But your attitude could use a fucking makeover too.”
