Sarah's Fashions

......."When I'm not working, I rarely wear makeup. I just put on sunblock, moisturizer, and lip balm."

The Makeup

.......Sarah applies moisturizer with sunblock every morning, and washes off her makeup completely at night. She likes to get a facial once a month, and also enjoys manicures and pedicures. Her beauty demon is unruly eyebrows. She fills in the color with a pencil then tames them with clear mascara or a spritz of hair spray on an eyebrow brush.

.......Sarah favors natural looking makeup. She sometimes uses Philosophy Kiss Me Lip Balm to keep her lips supersoft. She also likes makeup artist Francois Nars' own line of lip glosses. For her nails, she likes Nicole By OPI Nail Laquer in Purple Persuasion, Pink.Dot.Com, Hard Candy polish in Peachy and Smash Box polish in Fog (a silvery-grey). When it comes to perfume, she loves to mist on Shiseido's Relaxing Fragrance. When going out on the town, she's been known to use a little roll-on body glitter on her shoulders and chest.

The Clothing

.......Buffy's sexy wardrobe comes from the WB's cutting edge costume designer Cynthia Bergstrom. Her t-shirts are CK and Parallel, her skirts are BCBG, her cute little sweaters are Dolce & Gabbana (pronounced Dol Chay). Her dresses are Miu Miu, and her slimfit Mark Wong Nark pants are perfect for kicking serious vampire butt.

.......Sarah has two different fashions. In the spotlight, she's a little more designer chic.

......."I'm a big fan of Tom Mark, BCBG, Betsey Johnson, Vivienne Tam, and any clothes that are comfortable and kind of funky. I put things together that are a little strange, and when I get tired, my style gets stranger. I love vintage clothes and long leather coats- there's nothing better. You put one on, you always look good. I usually wear skirts. I love that whole knee-length look, which is back now. I love tank tops, summer or winter. I just put a jacket on or a sweater over one."

.......When she's not in the spotlight, she's a completely different girl, with a slightly more relaxed fashion sense.

......."I don't like people looking at me. I don't want to walk into a room and have people look at me. I want to look at other people. I'm a baseball hat and overalls girl on the weekends."

.......Her jewelry is low key, as well. "I love small delicate things", she says and adds that she has 5 holes in her ears, 2 in her left and 3 in her right, and one in her belly button, which was pierced before it became popular. When shopping for diamonds, she goes to Rafinity, a diamond boutique owned and operated by L.A. jewelry designer Ann Whatu, who creates 'floating diamonds'. These are fine, tiny diamonds on a strand so small it's nearly invisible, which explains the name. Sarah now has at least 3 tattoos. One is a chinese symbol of integrity, on the small of her back. Another is on her ankle, a Tao symbol of patience. The third is on her other ankle, a dagger hanging over a heart. "I got that after the demise of a relationship. I just wanted to mark it...I was feeling pretty low. It's to remind myself how precarious love is. The knife dangling over the heart," she pauses, "about to strike."
