Polka Dot Frenzy

This summer in Europe is all about
polka dots. Yes, you heard right, polka
dots! They are actually all the rage in Europe
this season so make sure that you go and grab
a few polka doted shirts, dresses, skirts and
even pants!

Super hot this summer, are the polka
dotted dress. Crisp white 50’s inspired
dresses with big, round polka dots. Get them
in cute colours like red, yellow, pink, blue
or green! Make sure you wear the dress with some
hot stilettos (try to match them with the colour
of the polka dots!)

Next up, the polka dotted swimsuits. Again,
White background, and multi-coloured polka dots.
You can also go with a dark background such as black
and navy blue with white or yellow polka dots.

The cutest thing you can wear this summer, are
polka-dotted tank tops. V-necked tops that plunge down
and sprinkled with big, round polka dots in red
or yellow. Pick one that has a bow at the drop. Pair the
tank-top with a pair of white pants or casual jeans and you’ll
look super cute as well as super sexy!

Another item that you can actually incorporate into
your fall wardrobe are polka-doted coats and rain coats.
They will look fabulous on you during those harsh
rainy days.

You can also have polka-dotted purses. Just make sure
you only wear one polka-dotted item at a time. You don’t
want to look tacky or country! There is a big variety of
polka-dotted purses out there but make sure you pick
one to match your outfit.

Stay tuned for tomorrow when I let you in on
another hot European style frenzy that’s happening
this summer. With these easy tips, you’ll be looking
hot and European in no time!

Hot Sexy Clothes

Not everyone can pull off hot sexy clothes,
but if you can, take advantage of it while
you’re young! But always remember, look
classy not trashy, and that there is a time
and place for every style!

I want to start off with this hot pink
dress to the right. It is amazingly sexy
and provocative. Now this is something that
you would wear to a club, and definitely not
a dinner party. Pair it up with some sexy
sandals and make sure that your breasts don’t
pop out.

I absolutely love this tube top right here.
The stitching is amazing and the sparkles
give it a glitzy, glam look. Also what is
unique about it is the slant to the side and the
beautiful flower cut-out pattern. This can
go great either during the day with a pair of jeans
or at night with a pair of black pants. You can
find these tube tops in many other colours
such as beige, black, and cream.

This dress right here is a show-stopper.
It is along the same lines as the cropped tube top.
The sexy slit on the side elongates the legs and it has
a beautiful, elegant design. Pair this dress up with some
hot black stilettos and a small sparkly purse.

Next up, I found this hot, sexy halter jumper. You can
find this item in many other colours, but you certainly are a
goddess if you can pull this off! Again, this outfit should
be worn to a fancy club at night and not during the day.
It is an extremely curve-hugging piece so be very careful
that there is no flab hanging out or anything like that.
This halter jumper is super hot and sexy, just make sure
you can wear it!

Lipstick Tricks

Lipstick can be tricky at times.
It has hard to find the right shade,
and hard to find the right brand.
A lot of them don’t really do
what they promise to do, and well
let’s face it: we all spend a ton
of dough on these pout beautifiers!

I am going to give you some good
tips and tricks on lipstick so that you
will have less to worry about! First tip:
store the lipstick in the fridge! It will
last you weeks longer! Never leave your
lipstick in your purse where there is a lot
of heat because it will melt! Second tip:
never ever use tester lipsticks. It’s completely
unhygienic and it’s so much easier just to
test on your hand.

Third tip: use a lip liner as the base. If you
fill in your lips with a lip liner, your lipstick
will last much longer. Make sure that you
use a nude lip liner so it doesn’t stand out
too much.

Fourth tip: if you’re going to apply
lipstick, don’t skip the lip liner. It will
make your lips look fuller and softer
as well as give them some definition.

Fifth tip: don’t get caught with
embarrassing lipstick marks
on your teeth. Try this: after applying
your lipstick stick your finger in your
mouth and pop it out. It will get rid
of all the excess lipstick that has formed
underneath your lips.

Tip number six: if you’re short on blush,
you can always use lipstick. Make sure you
don’t put too much so that it doesn’t look fake.
Tip number seven: the older you are, the creamier
your lipstick should be.

Tip eight: don’t throw out the lipsticks that you
don’t like. Instead, make them useful by
combining them with other shades of lipsticks
and making a beautiful colour out of them.

Tip nine: to get your lips to be plump, apply
liner just outside of your natural lip line.
Tip ten: if you want your lip gloss to stay,
apply a lip liner first.

Tip eleven: If your lipstick breaks in half, don’t
throw it out: they’re expensive! Instead, take the broken
piece with a tissue, wave a match under it and stick it
back onto the other piece. Put in the fridge for five
minutes and it’s good as new!

Tip twelve: never wear brown or orange
shades of lipstick as they will make your
teeth appear yellow. Tip thirteen:
to save even more money, when your lipstick is
done scrape off the last bits at the bottom
with a cotton swab and mix it in a palette with
Vaseline or lip gloss.

And last but not least, the last tip of the day:
If you want to keep your lipstick off your glass,
discretely lick the lip of the glass before touching
your lips to it. No lipstick on that glass!

Art Nouveau

A new and classic trend has appeared
in the fashion world in Europe and New
York. A still so classic and elegant,
yet nevertheless timeless and stunning.
The fin de secle textile patterns and
Art Nouveau movement have injected
a new spirit into the current rigid style
of fashion.

A stunning dress was hand-painted to
duplicate the cut-velvet 1900 Worth gown
which is on display at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art’s British fashion exhibition.

These stunning styles exhibit flowers
and beautiful patterns all along the
clothing. Nature has made a big impact
in fashion today and so plants like the
black iris which is called “ Hello
Darkness” and the vines of scarlet
nasturtiums.

This new fashion is well-inspired
and very elegant. You can wear it either
during the day or for a fancy soiree at
night. Either way, it will give you so
much style and confidence that you’ll
be the belle of the ball!

All About Jeans

It can be very hard to find the right
pair of jeans most of the time. They’re
too long, too short, too tight, not
tight enough, etc. In this season,
the straight leg has come back which
will help the short chickas look
taller and still in style, the low rise jeans.

If you’re a little shy about bearing
your mid-section, try on a pair of
boy-cut jeans which won’t show
off that much. Another trend this
summer is the body-hugging jean
which is very sexy and obviously,
hugs every curve on your lower body.
Most of these jeans are stretchy so they’re
very comfortable to wear. So if you want
tight jeans but without the pain, get a pair
of stretchy jeans- they look and feel great
on you!

Just because those jeans look good
on your friend, does not mean they will
look good on you. You have to be very
conscious of your body type when choosing
anything. It might look great on a tall, slim
model, but it might not look the same on you.
Always try everything on, and make smart
decisions.

If you have a nice derriere and hips that
you are proud of, you can wear tight,
low-rise jeans which will hug your
curves. For those of you who
want a little room in your jeans, go
for the relaxed jean look or the boy-cut
jeans. For extra room, try on jeans with
a low waist, low pockets and a little
bit of flare around the ankles.

Next up, the shade of the jeans. It’s always
tricky to find that right shade of jeans
that will do wonders for your body. This
season, the dark, textured look is in. Try
an inky-indigo colour which will look
great either dressed-up or dressed-down.
To keep your dark jeans dark, turn the
jeans inside-out and wash them with cold
water not using the full-dry cycle.

5 New Summer Looks

Sure there are lots of new styles coming
in this summer, and we’re all going crazy
asking ourselves what to wear, and when to
wear it. It can be hard at times, but if guided in the
right direction anyone can look the part of a summer
goddess. All you have to do is follow some
simple procedures and of course, always wear
whatever looks good on you, not on a supermodel!

Let’s start off with the flirty skirts. I know it
can be hard at times to pull off a skirt, but these
flirty skirts are a breeze to wear. Try a skirt
that’s knee-length which will flatter your
silhouette. You can choose your fabric such
as rayon, washed linen or cotton. You
can wear both solid and print patterns as they will
look great paired up with a fitted t-shirt. Asymmetrical
and hankie hems are fabulous for bottom-heavy figures, while
pleats and flounces are great if you’re lacking some curves.

Let’s jump on to the floral department! You can find
Cheap little flowers that you can pin to the side of
your dress, or clip them in your hair. It will add a soft,
feminine touch. Get a coloured flower like in pink, yellow
or red. Just make sure you remember the golden rule:
larger frames should carry wide spread prints while
smaller frames should go for all over tiny prints.

Third look…the tank top. I know there a lot of people
that are afraid of the tank top because it might be too
skimpy or it might show some bulges. You can either go
“wild” and just wear a tank top by itself (very hot) or
if you’re too uncomfortable, you can always layer. Pick
two colours that suit you and that go well together and
match them up.

For some racy wear, try some lingerie inspired looks!
Get this new look by wearing a laced trim
on your tops and bottoms. It will add a very
soft and delicate touch. The idea
is not to wear your lingerie around town,
but just to give a littlepeak so to say.
So get a cute tank-top that’s rimmed
with lace or even a lace-rimmed skirt.

And the last new summer look is the bright print.
Now I’m not saying go running for the
bright fuchsia or bright yellow, but add some
colour to your wardrobe! You can pair up a white
T with a hot pink skirt, or a cotton candy pink
shirt with denims. The key here is moderation;
if you’re going to wear a bright colour for your top,
make sure you wear a neutral colour for the bottom
and vice-versa! Just make sure that you hold the colour
of the fabric against your face before buying it, so you
don’t end up looking pasty!

The Right Bag for Your Body

Like most women, you probably thing
that a bag is just a bag; if it looks cuts with
this outfit, it’s probably right; if it matches with
my shoes it’s good enough. Nope. Listen up ladies!
You can actually find the right bag for your body
type, no joke.

So let’s start off with the different styles of bags:
First there is the tote which is an opened top bag
with straps or handles. Then there is the duffle
bag which is a tall shoulder bag and has a wide
opening at the top. A hobo bag is a crescent-shaped
shoulder bag, while a filed bag is a flap-top shoulder
bag buckles or straps for closure.

A clutch is mostly worn with evening wear and
is very small and handheld. A satchel is a large, hand
held bag. A messenger bag is a large shoulder bag usually
worn across the chest. A cigar box is a small, hard, boxy bag.
A Kelly bag is a Hermes style which is named after Grace Kelly; it is
a large, structured handbag with different closures.
And last but not least is the baguette which is a long
and rounded shoulder bag.

A bag should always be proportioned to your
own size. So if you’re 6 feet tall and a size 15, a
little tiny bag wouldn’t be right for you. If you’re
a size 0, a large bag wouldn’t look good on you
either! So try the bag on before buying it; see if
it finds under your arms, and if it feels cramped or
hits your chest, the bag just isn’t for you!

A shoulder bag’s length will accentuate whatever
part of the body it comes near. If a bag ends near
your hips, it will draw the eye away from the hips,
and to your bag. For most women, a bag that
hits mid-torso is the best kind of bag because it
flatters the waist. So spend time when shopping
for a bag because it does make a difference!

Get Super-Shiny Hair 3

So here you are, the last part for
super-shiny hair with the worst
section: damaged hair. Don't we all have
damaged hair in the end? Weather it's straight,
curly or wavy, it's still damaged. Well pay
close attention because these are the tips that will
help you get super-shiny hair super-fast.

Start off with a hair-repairing shampoo
such as WELLA Color Preserve Repairing
Shampoo for Damaged Hair. When your hair
is damp apply a leave-in conditioner such as
Leave-In Conditioner by Alba Botanica.

It is very important that you invest in
high quality products because it will take
time and patience to get your damaged hair
out of its hole. So make sure that you do a treatment
for your hair once a week. You can try Biolage by Matrix
Ultra-Hydrating Conditioning Balm. It does wonders
for your hair and scalp and isn’t very expensive at all!

Although blow-dryers and straighteners add more
damage to your do, they are the only things
that can restore your hair temporarily. So blow-dry
your hair at a high setting, and when you have finished,
straighten out your ends. When finished, apply a few drops
of frizz-taming serum to your hair such as Osis
+ Magic Anti-Frizz Serum. You can also add a
spritz of hair spray to your brush before running it
through your hair to control static and hold the style.

Get Super-Shiny Hair 2

Yesterday I talked about how to get
super-shiny hair if you have straight hair.
Today I will tell you how to get super shiny
hair if you have curly hair. And don’t forget
to tune in to the next blog for damaged hair!

Curly haired babes have it hard when it comes
to their hair. It’s always frizzy, and it’s almost
impossible to detangle! Unfortunately, when curly
hair gets straightened it tends to show more split
ends as well as loose more shine. So how do you fix that?

Start off with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner
such as Nexxus Therappe Luxury Moisturizing Shampoo
and Conditioner. Rinse with cold water. Run a straightening
gel through your hair such as Alterna Hemp Seed
Straightening Balm and brush through with a wide-tooth
comb.

As you are blow-drying, wrap 2-inch sections of your
hair around a round brush to straighten. Apply a finishing
cream from 1-inch below the roots to the ends such as
Nioxin Smoothing Reflectives Finishing Crème.

If you want to leave your curls in but get super-shiny hair,
don’t rinse your hair completely, leave some conditioner in.
Apply a gel to your damp hair and twist sections around your
fingers. Let your hair dry naturally.

Get Super-Shiny Hair

Get the scoop on how to get super-shiny
hair, extremely straight and smooth.
There are many types of hair out there,
but don’t fret I will tell you in tomorrow’s blog
how to get super-shiny hair for curly hair and
damaged hair. Today? Straight hair.

First of let me just say that naturally straight
hair is much easier to handle because it already
has a natural shine to it. It will be extremely easy
for you to get that super-shiny hair that you want!

Start off by washing your hair with a shine shampoo
such as TIGI s Factor Smoothing Shampoo, Shines and
Rejuvenates. It’ll leave your hair feeling super soft and
silky. Top off with a smoothing conditioner such as
Wella Liquid Hair Restructurizer.

Blow-dry your hair while brushing it with a natural
boar-bristle paddle brush.Straighten your hair with a
ceramic straightener such as Revlon Perfect Heat
Professional 2-Inch Ceramic Straightening Iron.
Add a little bit of light finishing serum to frizzy areas
like your ends. Finish off with a shine-enhancing spray
such as Aveda Brilliant Spray-On Shine..

Perfect Eye Makeup Design

Here you will learn how to use the classic eye makeup design. Weather you want to use one colour, two colours, three and even four! It is always fun to play with colours and I will guarantee you that your eyes will look fabulous!

Start off by applying one colour all over your eyes from your lashes to just under the eyebrow. The best colors for this design include light tan, neutral taupe, beige,
pale mauve brown, pale gray, light golden brown, camel,
and light auburn. Whatever the color, it should definitely
not be obvious. Make sure you blend lightly and subtly with
a brush and that you do not go outside the brow.

Next up, the two colour design. Here you can choose
to either apply a lighter shade onto your lids, and a darker
shade from your lids to your brow. You can also choose
to go with a darker shade on your lids and a lighter shade
from your lids to your brow. These colours shouldn't be different,
they should just have different shades (lighter, darker).
The lid can be taupe, beige, tan, camel, gray, light auburn,
golden brown, or any light neutral shade, and the under-eyebrow
color should be a deeper shade of the same color. You can
use MAC eye makeup because as I have said before
many times, it does wonders for your face. Choose a
colour such as a sparkly brown, taupe
or satin. Women with darker skin tones can wear
muted rose, mauve, or peach as long as it doesn't make
their eyes look irritated or too obvious. Bright,
noticeably shiny, or whitish shadows can look dated and
make the brow bone look more prominent and heavy.

The basic rule here: The general rule is that
the larger or more prominent the eyelid area
is compared with the under-brow area, the
darker or deeper the eyelid color can be; the
smaller the eyelid area is compared with the
under-brow area, the brighter or lighter the
eyelid color can be.

When applying your eye makeup, your colours should
meet and blend, but they should never overlap
each other!

For your fourth colour, again, add a darker colour than the
3 previous ones. Apply it to the back corner of your eye.
Shading the back corner of the eyelid involves the art of
placement and blending. Because this area almost always
requires a dark color, blending is essential to make it look soft,
with no hard edges. With all of the steps, it is absolutely essential that
you blend in the hard edges, make it look like everything is in sync,
and that the colours don't overlap each other!

This eye makeup design will give your eyes definition,
and look! It will make them as dramatic as you want them
(depending on the colours you want to use). So have fun
with your colours ladies!

Healthy Refreshing Foods

It looks like it's going to be a scorching summer
and we all know what that means; sweat, hotness
and all the blahs that come with it. But there are
also the good things such as the beach, the clothes
and pretty much everything else.

And if you're like me,
for some reason, fast food just doesn't appeal to you
in the summer. You want something refreshing and healthy.
Not only will these foods make your skin glow but they
will make you feel better, look better, and shed off some
pounds too!

Kiwi, Raspberry, Papaya Fruit Salad

Doesn't this sound fabulous? Mix these delicious fruits
together and lounge in the back yard with a good book.
You'll feel refreshed and healthy. These babies are packed
with tons of Vitamin C which is crucial to your immune
system. Kiwis and papayas are great because they add
potassium to your diet which helps your body to stay
hydrated, regulates your nerves, heartbeat and blood pressure.
Raspberries are great because full of proteins and Vitamin C
all in one. Add some low-fat cheese to your salad and it will
be to die for! Healthy, refreshing food you can always count on.

Serving Sizes:1 kiwi, about 46 calories 1 medium papaya, about
119 calories 1 cup raspberries, about 64 calories

Cantaloupe and Ricotta Cheese

Sound good? You bet it is! Another healthy, refreshing food
that you can munch on all day! Cantaloupes are very refreshing
and they also contain Vitamins A and C. Combine it with
ricotta cheese which is packed with proteins and you've got
a full meal as well as your calcium intake which is equal to drinking a 1/2 cup of milk.
You can also add some ricotta cheese to a piece
of bread and a pita. Ricotta cheese is a great substitute for cottage
cheese because it is low in fat.

Serving Sizes: 1 cup cantaloupe, about 54 calories 1/4
cup part-skim ricotta, about 86 calories 1 slice whole
wheat bread, about 69 calories 1 small whole wheat pita,
about 74 calories.

Easy and Beautiful Hair Updo

We all know that getting an updo
done can be pretty costly. And let's admit
that we have all at one point or another attempted
some sort of creative updo and alas, it had not worked.
Don't fear ladies, I will show you a very easy to-do
and very free updo that you can wear anywhere!
An easy and beautiful hair updo in just minutes.



Start off by flipping your head over forwards and
teasing the roots of your hair fast until you feel a little
nest forming at the roots. Spray it with a finishing
spray so that it will hold. Now flip your hair back
and brush it as you normally would.

Start with your back by grabbing a piece of hair,
like you would for a pony tail. Twist it clockwise,
bring it up and secure with bobby pins. Take the
top piece that is left over and twist it lightly. Secure
the top piece and make sure you give it as much
height as you want. Now take each side twist
it back to secure on the top building into a pile.

Fix your bangs (if you have any) and secure any hair that's left
over with some bobby pins. Add a little spray to your mane
and you now have a beautiful hair updo that cost you
$0!

Beautiful Nails

A perfect manicure and pedicure
can cost a lot of money. And let's face it:
not a lot of people can afford to get their toes
and nails done every other week. So what
do you do? You do it yourself!

Beautiful nails are easy to achieve if you know how.
First off, remove all nail polish from your finger and
toe nails. Clip and file your toe nails. Make sure you
cut straight across so that you don't get them
ingrown. File around the sharp edges.

Get a bowl a fill it with warm water. You will
soak your feet in there. You can add sea salt,
calming lotions, or anything you want to make
it more relaxing. Do this for about 20 minutes.

While your feet are soaking, file your finger nails
to the shape that you want. You can make them
round, square, whatever your pleasure! Grab some
cuticle oil from the drug store. Massage it into
each of your fingernails and then push the cuticles
back with a cuticle pusher. If you have any
hang nails clip them off.

After your feet have finished soaking, rub cuticle oil
into your toe nails. You're this close to having beautiful
nails ladies! Dip your foot file in the water and with the
rough side, scrub until all the dead skin is off. Using the
soft side, polish off whatever is left. Again, with your
cuticle pusher, push back the cuticles on your toes. Anything
left over, clip them off.

For beautiful nails, get some exfoliator and rub your feet
with it for a good five minutes. Place your feet back into
the water and exfoliate your hands and nails. After you have
finished, you can rinse both feet and hands. Dry well!

Next, apply moisturizer to your feet and hands. Make sure
you rub it in good and go all the way up to your elbows and
knees. Now use a nail polish remover to remove all the oil
from your nails. Start by applying a base coat to each one
of your nails and toes. Apply two coats of nail polish
and finish off with a clear top coat. Sit back and relax for
20 minutes. Do this once a week and you're on your
way to having exquisite, beautiful nails!

Get Bright Skin

It is always imperative that you know
your skin type before you follow
these simple get bright skin steps. You can
either have oily skin, dry skin, or combination skin.
Either way, make sure you analyze your skin before
you choose any kinds of cleansers of products.

To get bright skin,you first must choose a good
cleanser. Soap is only good for anything that is
neck down. It can actually be damaging to your face,
since the ingredients in the soap are a little harsh for your
face. So find a good cleanser for your face and then for your body.
For your face, I recommend a light cleanser that won't be too
harsh on your face and that contains salicylic acid so that
you can maintain a pimple-free face. Wet your face with
warm water and apply a dime-sized amount of cleanser on.
Rinse off with cold water as the cold water will minimize your
pores.

Next step to getting brighter skin: exfoliating. You must exfoliate
both face and body. For the body, I recommend exfoliating 2-3 times
a week for softer, younger looking skin, and of course to get rid of
dead skin cells. For the face, use a light exfoliating scrub only once
a week. Make a routine to exfoliate your face every Saturday. If
you have oily skin you can exfoliate about 3-4 times a week.
In the summer, exfoliating needs to be kicked up a notch
because the sweat acts like glue to your skin and so it will
cause the dead skin cells to stick together and coat your face
and body.


Third step to getting brighter skin: moisturizer. As we are
on the subject of brightness, I suggest a shimmery lotion
for your body such as Nivea Silky Shimmer Lotion. Slather
some on your legs, arms, chest, and shoulders and you
will look super hot as well as your skin will give out a nice
glow. For your face, use a good moisturizing lotion that
will calm your skin (you'll feel it). Be careful not to
over do it because your pores can clog very easily.


Last step, apply sunscreen ( for the shimmery body
lotion, apply the sunscreen before). Sun can cause a lot
of damage to your skin as well as age your skin at a much
faster rate. So take care of your skin and skip the blazing hot
rays because in the need it really isn't worth it!

Create Sexy Cat Eyes

To bring out the vixen in you,
you must look the part in every way.
These tips will help you create
sexy cat eyes so that you can
steal the show wherever you bat
your sexy cat eyes.

Vary from colour to colour
depending on how dramatic you want
your look to be. If you want something
sultry and dramatic go for black kohl colours,
or something more natural such as grays and
dark khakis.

Start off by collecting all of your tools:
sharp black eyeliner; liquid eyeliner;eyeshadow
brush; eyelash curlers; black mascara; eyebrow
pencil; brow highlighter and dark eyeshadow.

Put on your usual foundation/concealer. Make sure
you apply an under eye concealer as well as dot your lids
with some foundation so that you can help avoid creases.
Use your black pencil eyeliner by drawing a smudged line
from the corner of your eyelid to the end of your lash line.

With your brush, apply the dark eyeshadow over the top
of the smudged line. Take your liquid eyeliner and apply
online at the top and as close as possible to your
eyelid. You can make it as thick as you want but just make
sure that your line is thicker at the outer corner of your lid,
and thinner at the inner corner. Apply yet another coat of
dark eyeshadow with your brush to blend the edges.

Blend your eyeshadow up from your lashes to your eye crease
and apply a shimmery highlighting eyeshadow cream (white
or cream colour) under the outside corner of the brow.

Next apply your eyebrow pencil to define your eyebrows.
Again, make sure it is a natural colour that matches your natural
hair colour. Curl your lashes and apply two coats of mascara.
Voila! You have created sexy cat eyes :)

Beautiful Eyebrows

Now that you know what kind of shape
your eyebrows need to have, you also
need to know how to get them into that
shape step-by-step and foolproof.

Beautiful eyebrows are the key
to a beautiful face. I cannot stress enough
how important your eyebrows are to your
overall look. They can make you or break you.
Rule number one: pluck your beautiful eyebrows
before bed so that the redness can go away in the
morning.

Always use a pair of slanted edge tweezers
so that it can grip your hair easily. Comb your
eyebrows one way, and then comb the other way to
get rid of any loose hairs that are trapped in there.

Only pluck your eyebrows from your brows
to any stragglers. Never ever pluck above
your eyebrows.

Start plucking away by plucking each hair
individually in the direction of the growth.
Now visualize the shape you want for
your eyebrows and take it along that path.
Be extra carefully not to overtweeze.

Now choose an eyebrow pencil that matches
your natural hair colour. Start at the inner corner
working outwards and using fine, feathered strokes.
You can blend the colour with a brush and if you
have any stray hairs, add a little gel and comb through.
Voila!

Make Your Perfume Last

Feel like everytime you go out and put
on some perfume, it just doesn't last very long?
I know the feeling all too well, and sometimes
perfumes can be expensive.

There really is no trick to picking out a long lasting
perfume, but there's a trick to making your
perfume smell better for longer!
Follow these simple steps to make your perfume last.

Start off by layering on a body wash or body oil
that is infused with your perfume's scent. Most
perfumes usually have sidekicks such as their own
body wash and/or body oil. For example, the Britney
Spears Curious perfumes are also accompanied the
by Britney Spears Curious body wash. Lather yourself
up good, and then use the body oil (is applicable) to
rub some on to your chest and arms.

Something good to start you off is Chanel Chance
Silky body oil which is only $40! Another thing you can do
is you can spray the clothes that you want to wear with
the perfume you want and place those clothes in a closed space.
This will keep the perfume locked in so that when you
get dressed, the perfume will be long gone deep into your
clothes.


Some long lasting perfumes I suggest: White Diamonds
by Elizabeth Arden and Anais Anais by Cacharel.

Summer Sun Hats

Make a splash this summer by adding
the ultimate accessories to your outfit:
summer sun hats! That's right ladies,
these hats aren't tacky, they're a must!

Pair this ultra chic hat with a cute summer
dress or a tube top and capris. An Australian
braided hat is just perfect for those lazy summer
days lounging by the pool and sipping on
cool margaritas.

Another cute hat you can wear to the beach;
fun and colourful! This hat is called the Wave Chaser
from Anthropologie. It is made from canvas and
is splashed with blue, violet and brown swirls that will
look absolutely fabulous with any summer outfit!

Third to the stand, we have the wide-brim hat.
Get it in any colour as it will match perfectly with any outfit
and is great for outdoors summer parties. The brim at the
bottom gives it a more textured look and adds a bit of
sophistication to your outfit. Pair with big, oversized plastic
sunglasses.

Straight off the Runway

Throw out your old mall bought clothes,
and enter the real fashion world straight
off the runway from this year's
hottest European designers. We all know
fashion in European is much much different
than the one from here, but much much better as
well. So take some tips from the pros, and copy
some of these trends straight off the runway and
into your closet!

First up...the fabulous summer dress. Tip?
Go crazy! With anything you have. Incorporate
lots of colour and accessories to your summer dress.
This year, dresses that hit right below the knee, tube-top style. Make sure they come down tight the lower they get. Next,the famous 50's style dresses. Again, lots of colour and fun flirty ruffles!

Corset tops are back on the market again. They will
be really hot this year especially if you're thinking of
going to that hot new club or anywhere special. Just make
sure you cant breathe in it and you'll attract lots of attention.
Straight off the European runways for this year's spring
and summer collection.




The colour red! Red pumps, a pretty red dress, a red
top...whatever! You'll look super hot this summer just be
sure to use in moderation of course. This year it's all about sexy and conservative. The bare-skin look is out. We all know bermudas are back on the market, as well as
long dresses. Make sure you pair them with the right shoes and accessories and you'll look ultra chic.

New Summer Looks

Fashion has surrounded us from left to right,
and top to bottom. We cannot escape it. It changes
from day to day and gets crazier and crazier.
It's not wonder that for most people, it's hard to
keep up with the fashion craze because it would
be a total pocket thief. So, just remember that the best look
this summer is anything that looks good on YOU!
If you look fabulous in it, that's all that matters.
And here are just a few new summer looks that you
can be sure to wear all summer without draining your wallet!

First there is the big skirt for the new summer look which is
perfect for any occasion. Look at this one to your right, the
aqua green colour is perfect for summer and you can literally
match it up with anything! Make sure to add a little accessory!

Second, the magnificent wedges! You can pair these babies
up with that big skirt as the new summer look! Wedges come in
all kinds of styles, so you can never get bored of them.
Try wedges with little designs on the side, or some
glittery jewels at the top!





Third, there are the famous gauchos! Always perfect for a dressed-up, or dressed down look. Pair them up with tall boots,wedges, sandals, flats, whatever! Just make sure you never ever wear baggy shirts. Gauchos need a fitted top to look good!


Last but not least, add a little sophistication to your
fancy outfit by putting on a shrug. Yes, you heard right! They're back!
A lot of women don't like they're arms, and they are a good way
to cover up the unwanted areas. Don't just wear them with any old t-shirt
though. Put on a glitzy top (something colourful) so that it can stand out
against the neutral shrug.
