Get Neon

 

A blast from the 80's has hit the fashion world. The notorious neon colors are back. They can be seen on the runway and the street. I know that during the 80's I was the girl with the blue eyeshadow, side pony, and neon leggings, but now the look has evolved into something couture. Teen girls have been wearing the neon skinny jeans and vibrant color splashed shirts, but for the twenties and up, we can wear one neon piece or have one neon accessory. If you want to go neon on the bottom, get neon shorts or skinny jeans and pair a solid tee or tank with it. With neon shirts you ca... Read More >>>

Summer Hair

 

The trend this summer is carefree and easy. Beach waves and soft curls are in! So stop coloring and let your natural highlights show! Get a beachy, fun look to your hair by letting your natural texture show. You just need a a bobby pin or two if you need, and put your bangs back or add a braid. If you want to create a just left the beach look, add a texturizing spray to your hair and scrunch. Just let it be natural and pretty!

Smart Shopping

Get a clue about savvy shopping this summer by indulging in a few tips. Saving money will be a breeze on your next trip to the grocery store:

Keep a running list. Slapped under a magnet on the fridge, or tacked to the front door—it doesn't matter, as long as you have a "Things I Need" list somewhere in plain sight. If you get in the habit of jotting down items as you think of them ("Oops! Running low on olive oil."), then you'll never have to brainstorm at the last minute again. This will also eliminate those extra trips to the grocery store that someho... Read More >>>

Get the Best out of your Blow Dryer

There's a lot of hype over whether a blow dryer can cause significant damage to hair. While it is certainly not recommended that style seekers perform a blow out everyday, proper technique and careful attention can reduce the negative affects of blow drying, and will enhance the look of your hair every single time!

Make use of the "cool" button. A lot of dryers these days have a cold setting, which cuts off the heat from the dryer and directs room temperature air at your hair. Experts say that while the hot settings open the hair cuticles and allow for styling, the cooler setting closes up ... Read More >>>

Lily Allen's Jewelry Line

British singer Lily Allen is following footsteps of her American famous friends and is launching a jewelry line. The jewelry collection is called Lily Allen and features pieces like medallions, fruits, poodles and coins.

Allen told Vogue UK: "I'm really pleased with all of the designs, we worked hard on getting them exactly how we wanted them from choosing the right chain length and thickness to deciding what should be in gold and what looks better in silver. I do love the animals though - the pandas are fantastic."

The jewelry line will officially launch in the fall.
