    Spring Fashion: All About Bright Colors
    When you hit the mall this season, don’t forget to check a few bright items off your list. This spring, adorn yourself in the hottest colors from pink to yellow to blue to green, and any other bright color that you like! Of course the most important thing when working with bright colors is to not overdo it. A lot of women make the mistake of mixing colors that either don’t match or look too bright for anyone’s eyes. Avoid making this mistake by mixing in some neutral colors with a vivid palette. This will draw the attention away from all the color and therefore it won&...

    Top 5 Fashion Commandments that You Must Obey
    In both life and fashion, there are always a few rules we need to abide by. Life has its rules that we need to obey, and so does fashion! Here are the top 5 fashion commandments that you need to live by! 1. Ignoring the Rule Never to Mix Prints You know very well which rule I’m talking about! Never being able to mix florals with stripes- well that’s out now! Thanks to brilliant designers Etro and Dries Van Noten who adopted the “anything goes” attitude by mixing florals with stripes. So here’s a new challenge for you! Instead of mastering the art of the ma...

    The French Know Best When it Comes to Perfume
    When it comes to perfume, the French usually seem to know best. And I trust them too! Give me any kind of French perfume and I’ll be easily able to appreciate its unique scent. The French have been at this for a long time and they know what they’re doing. That’s why I am writing this in homage to their newest creation- it’s Dior La Collection Particuliere Passage No 4. Yes, ok it sounds all fancy, and it looks fancy too, but once you get a whiff of it you won’t want to try anything else, trust me! Although this baby is a little pricier (try $295!) it’...

    Spring Fashion Rule: Anything Goes
    This spring, throw out your inhibitions, let go of old rules, and play by your own fashion rules! It’s not about what’s in the magazines, on celebrities, or on the runways- it’s ultimately about YOU- and what YOU feel comfortable in! After all…you are the customer. So feel free to let loose this season as anything goes! A big staple this season are arm bangles, which I absolutely love. I’m telling you, you can never go wrong with bangles.

    What to Do if Your Eyeliner Disappears
    Many people have the same problem: their eyeliner disappears after just a few hours! It’s a tough one, and it’s something that annoys all of us, all the time. You get ready to go out, you finish up your makeup, and 2 hours later in the bathroom stall you notice that it’s gone! What gives? Start by coating your eyelids with a primer, like MAC Prep and Prime Eye. This is a great product, and you just can’t go wrong with any MAC products- it’s my all-time favorite! The primer will help because it will absorb the oil and create a matte base that your makeup can...

    Full-Bodied Hair
    Getting your hair to look big and full can be a challenge. I can tell you many instances when I’ve tried to get big, full hair and nothing really works. Even with my blow drier and tons of mousse, my fine hair doesn’t stand a chance. Thankfully, my stylist solved this problem for me. No more struggling to get a little volume that lasts 10 minutes. This time, I’ve got the volume, and it’s not going anywhere. At least not for some time! The secret to getting full-bodied hair is in the color. Adding lowlights (the reverse of highlights) creates the illusion of volum...
