Yesterday, it was all about bright clothing. Today, we're going to focus on bright make-up. Pretty awesome, right? I was flipping through the March issue of Glamour when I spotted the "beauty editor secrets" page, where a few ladies were dishing about their favorite new products. One gal said she … [Read more...]

February 2, 2012 By 1 Comment
Sometimes, super-trendy looks can be scary. If they look too runway, or they look like you wouldn't even know where to start with it, then you may feel like running in the other direction. I can think of nothing more intimidating than the current beauty craze otherwise known as ombre lips. Nylon is … [Read more...]

Seen on the Spring 2012 runways of Zac Posen, Jil Sander and Elie Saab Couture, among others, this fresh and pretty hue is this … [Read more...]
Trend Spotlight: Ditch Your Black Eyeliner
January 26, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Since my middle school days, I have seen a whole lot of black eyeliner. Some of it has been done up really well, like the gorgeous, ultra-glam sweeps and cat-eyes on the red carpet. Some of it has turned out not-so-well... I'm picturing those girls I saw in the hallways who caked it on. Ick. And black … [Read more...]
Trend Spotlight: Floral Pants
January 19, 2012 By 1 Comment
Yes, exactly. Today, I bring you a bright, loud, bold trend. The thing I'm sorta-kinda dying to talk about is floral pants. Peter Som worked them for Spring 2012. Erdem continued the trend on the runway for the warm-weather season. Bloggers have been rocking them. Glitter Guide has been covering them. … [Read more...]

Trend Spotlight: Valentino Lace
January 5, 2012 By Leave a Comment
I think spring trends are fair game now that it's 2012, don't you agree? I know, I know. It's only January. But I just can't wait to wear some of the lovely frocks I saw parading down the runway for the upcoming season. One of the highlights at Fashion Week? Definitely the Valentino show! Mostly nixing … [Read more...]
Trend Spotlight: Bangs
December 29, 2011 By Leave a Comment
You have to have a certain kind of presence to pull off bangs, because you do notice them. If you're a wallflower, then this trend probably isn't for you. I think Zooey Deschanel has that sort of "presence." Those thick, blunt bangs perfectly frame her doe eyes and compliment her quirky style. I love … [Read more...]
Trend Spotlight: Ankle Boots
December 22, 2011 By Leave a Comment
One of my favorite trends to emerge and really pick up steam the past few years? Ankle boots. They are my go-tos for a little sophistication, when I need something chicer than a flat, tall boot, and trendier than a classic, tall heel. For a huge boot lovah like myself, it's great to see designers … [Read more...]
