Pretty Little Liars

Season 2 premieres tonight! I don't know about you guys, but I am curious to know who was driving the car that hit Hannah, and why did Emily turn Toby in, will Aira and Ezra get back together, and most importantly who in the world is A? Please, no spoilers, I've never read the books :p




Want to look as glamorous as these lovely ladies? Below are some tutorials, a special thanks to LynIsObsessedMakeup, missglamorazzi, HiHollyDoll, and GirlsJustWannaBeGlam :)

red hair

Red hair seems to be the most popular out-of-norm color these days and I love it! (Hint's my red hair during the fall ;p) My little brother made sure I added Kari Byron (from Discovery Channel's "Mythbusters") to the list. Big names such as Rihanna, Hayley Williams and even the Little Mermaid made our Most Gorgeous Red Heads list :):)

Bienvenido 2011!

 With a new year comes resolutions. This is the time to rid ourselves of the past and start over. A new year, a new you.
The same goes for fashion and trends. It's time to move on from last season and look forward :)

Say goodbye to grunge and messy dark make-up.





 
Say hello to a more romantic you!

Instead of the dark smokey eyes try wearing one color all over your eye lids with a matte or nude lip.







Expect a much more natural and classic look this upcoming year. Just look at Taylor Swift, she is ready for 2011 ;)

Model's Day Out

We always wonder what models wear on their days off. Well these Couture models spent the day shopping in Paris in their street clothes. I was pretty surprised at simple and easy some of these outfits are...then there are the few that only models in the streets of Paris could pull off. By the way, I would love to spend my day off shopping at Chanel :p lucky girls!

Off the Shoulder

I (somewhat) took a poll to see whether this look was a Do or a Don't. It turns out, it is a unanimous DO! Which is a huge relief on my part, because I adore this particular vintage 80's look. Not to mention, if you can't find cute off the shoulder tops, it is super easy to make your own. The look works for sweaters, dresses, tops, sweatshirts; giving any casual day a fun fem look.

I had an entire list of videos to share with you all, but the style and simplicity of this video is PERFECT. It is parallel with the style of the shirt, therefore CLICK HERE NOW :)

Simple, chic, vintage. However you want to describe this look it is a definite DO.

Also, I wanted to say sorry for my far-and-few-between style of postings lately. So "sorry"; I will try to be more routine with posts.

Show and Tell



I'm sorry Chanel, O.P.I. and China Glaze but my friends from S. America and I have been exchanging esmalte, or nail polish, reviews and I am VERY excited for this Brazilian polish, Impala. Impala specializes in hair care but has also been credited as one of the largest esmalte producers in Brazil. As of right now the only places you can actually go to the store and buy these polishes are in Brazil, Argentina and Peru..but they will eventually make their way to the US and if you are like me and have a major lack in impatience you can always order them online :D Like I will end up doing. (No worries I'll write my own review then)

What they had to say about Impala;
 Now usually neon, light, and metallic colors are really pretty in the bottles, but when you put them on they aren't as bright unless you put multiple cotes on. Multiple cotes usually result in a gupy and thick mess. But apparently Impala is made with a thicker formula so it doesn't have to be coted on, causing the finished look to be much smoother. The end result of the polish is matte, but if you want the shine just add a clear polish.
Also for quite a bit cheaper you get about the same quality as Chanel lacquers. Yeap, no chips, gloss and shine (unless you get matte finishes) and not to mention it is hydrating for the finger nails and cuticles :)
Also Impala has hundreds of colors to choose from :) exciting, huh?

Well that's all on Impala for now! Keep your eyes open :)

*Footnotes; My Own Polish Advice*
Neons- China Glaze is my favorite for brighter (even neon) colors. (My personal favorite being Flip Flop Fantasy.) The good thing about this polish is it isnt matte and doesn't chip. Also the bright colors make you look tan. Bad thing is do to the gloss finish it isn't as neon as you first expect. please avoid neons during the winter. wear metallics like silvers, golds, and bronzes.

Metallics- Texture is perfect for the winter, and what are the holidays without silver and gold? OPI has a very nice holiday selction. Just like China Glaze and Chanel, the polish is higher quality and the selection is endless.

Avoid using quick drying polish. The amount of acetone in them is what causes the paint to chip quickly.

I like a good fire engine red every now and then, but they ALWAYS stain my nails! When this happens I just soak my fingers in white vinegar for about ten minutes and wipe them with a paper towel. Your hands don't smell to pretty but it takes the stains out :)

Always start at the middle of your nail and move to the sides..it looks so much better in the end, trust me.

Zara

Founded in Spain, Zara is often overlooked (mainly by us in the US). The brand is fast fashion. It is a high class look, for a more reasonable price. Below is a few of Zara's newest collections from their lookbook.

Scarf Love

Whether it's chunky, silk, square, long, frilly, or knitted scarves make the greatest accessory during the fall/winter months. It is one item of clothing you really cant go wrong with!

Tying scarves really depend on your own personal style, but for cute tricks to tricky silk scarves click here. This winter try chunkier scarves. They will keep you toasty while look completely chic.
