LASHES
THE NEW FAKE

Faux lashes are the new it. It adds spas to your eyes and exaggerates them. It gives your face a flirty and cute look:) And if any of you girls out there have your eyes on a cute guy and want to get noticed, put some lashes on and he wont pass that face:) I think they are very apporiate at night as long as the lashes are at a moderate length. Because once people over do them and go crazywith them at lets say a dinner it begins to look more like your a show girl. Bottom like according the the occasion you should know how far to go with lenth and color.

HOLIDAY HAIR STYLES

I just went through celebrity styles for the holiday's and thought if they can do that why cant we? Well fortunately we can in a very simple and easy matter.

This hair do would be more for the straight hair girlie's out there! Also its considered to be more of a conservative do. All you need is styling wax to make easier steps while doing your hair. Bobby pins to hold it all together. Hair spray to work your finishing touches. And last is optional but strongly recommend a hair accesssory(s) because it tends to look not the best when the bobby pins show.

TWIST IT UP
First all you do is rub a little of the styling wax into the palm of your hands; to give the stands of your hair some grip. Now part your hair slightly off centered of the middle. Then roll the front section of one side into a twist. As you do this pin those parts of your hair against your head with bobby pins.
PIN IT DOWN
Now repeat like the first step but with the opposite side. Now all you do is take the two pieces you twisted into the back and cross the twisted ends over each other. Now you tuck the pieces in and pin them down. This is the right time to use hair spray to make sure the pieces do not come out.
ACCESSORIZE IT WITH A TOUCH OF GLAM
Now add some more bobby pins and make sure your hair is secure. About this time get a hair accessory and place it on the top of the twisted pieces of hair.

YOUR FINISHED RESULT




LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA








'Tis the season to be classy.

This look by Dianna Agron is the ideal, classic holiday look. She looks warm and sweet in her sleek up due; leaving 2 thick curls on one side oh her hair giving her a romance look. Soft light red lips that look very neutral on her. Just the right amount of mascara. The make up really complements her skin. The only think I would advocate to her is to apply some light shimmer on her eyes to give her more of the night holiday feel. Other wise this picture makes me so ecstatic for the holidays. 'Tis to season to be in glitter.

Beyonce looks so glittery in happy with her look. If you look closely you can see a few strands of glitter extensions. It gives the happy holiday feel, that can be worn casually getting your signature holiday coffee or even to a party giving your self a extra accessory.




'Tis the season to be icy!

Selena Gomez is rockin' the blue icy stones look. It goes great with her skin color and her hair is just.. wow. Not fair. I think every girl wishes for her look! I love how her make up matches the stones of her dress. I also love how the lip color is very calm.



'Tis the season to be warm.

Leighton Meester is pulling of the colors, the clothes, but not so much the makeup. Her hair looks like it hasn't been washed. She needs shine and hair spray. That color of lips should have not been her only choice. Her eye make up is nothing special. And her eyes brows need some plucking. Though I do love the earring's and sweaters and the color combinations. Her youthful look doesn't appear in this picture. Its jut that she is always put together well; that when I see her like this I get confused.

The vision of Chris Von Wangenheim

German Photographer born in 1942, Chris von Wangenheim captured the visual elegance of the body. Violently and sexually, was his expertise in shooting pictures.



When he immigrated to New York in 1965, he studied his passion, photography and later opened his own studio and began working for one of the most amazing magazines, Harper's Bazaar. By 1970 he began shooting off his career and photographing for Italian Vogue, French Vogue. He also was the picture in advertising Christian Dior, Playboy and more.

Sadly, his life was cut in 1981 by an accidental car crash. I say it was more like delayed death because his work is still what we see as alive and vibrant pictures of movement. His peices are the synonyms for the world phenomenal.
His favorite model to capture in movement was Gia Carangi, who was the worlds most famous supermodel at the time. She lived from (1960-1986) Which I will write more about.


Men dancing on beach, 1975
"I realized that getting my picture was more important to me
than the discomfort discomfort someone not understanding

or someone's opposition to my goals."
-Chris Von W.


Marie Helvin on her head, 1975



Fetching Is Your Dior,Christian Dior ad with Lisa Taylor, 1976
A good fashion photograph,” he wrote in 1980,
“makes a promise it can never keep.”
-Chris Von W

Super model, Gia Carangi did her first major fashion show with Chris, in October 1978. This picture is largely what both hit their career off. Its a very seductive picture directed by Chris himself. Gia in the shot is hanging and standing against a wired fence. In this one she is posing with her love Lisa. Gia quotes, "You were the one, you were the only one, and you were amazing. "

She is very known for her exotic pictures, which represneted her wild side at heart.

TEEN VOGUES BEST DRESSED OF THE YEAR


Currently I am reading a "fashion faceoff" article on Teenvogue.com and going through the order of the girls that were placed for this years best dressed! Though, some of the people who were on it doesn't make much sence to me. But everyone has different opinion on fashion which makes steping out of your house and looking at everyones outfits exciting. I am not going to do all 50, only the ones that really caught my eyes. I will be posting more of celebrities and their outfits. It will give me a chance to critique and bassically just say what I think of them.
1. Alexa Chung. DUH everyone loves her fashion. She has emerged to be one of the most trendiest ladies yet. Hler collabration with Madewell is going to be so interesting. I belive in a firm matter that any of her otfits will never be a dissapointment.
7. Kristen Stewart. I strongly disagree; she doesn't even consider to have her own fashion sense. I just think she is on the more tomboy-not caring what she is wearing side. Which is completley fine, its is actually kind of cool that she is not so focused on the glamour, which brings out her confidence. She has a natural look thats shouldn't be played with too much. She also has a akward look/ socially. But she is considered to be very unique.
8. Taylor Swift. I definitely think they placed her on a good number. Her long legs exaggerate her clothing in a good way. Especially her running gowns that show off her extended legs. Also she is very traditional, in not only outfits, but who she is. She is very respected and admired and she sticks to her home town country music. She is very inspried not only for that reason but to break into the music industry at her age is definitly a challeng, but she strived for it and is rockin' her look.

19. Leighton Meester. She can pull off classy, sweet, sophisticated. basically anything in the power of a trendsetter. She has such a divine look, which is very exotic. her role in gossip girl compared to her in real life is very similar. They both are very classic and try to bring back the old styles; lace, plaid, solids.


23. Blake lively. different beauty. Different style. We love her that is it. i cant even begin to say how lucky she is to have a look that really stands out. She doesn't need a red dress, or bodl jewlery to stand out. her, herself is just attatched to a look that is so indivisual and seperates her from all the blonde, tall eyed group.

50. Sienna Miller definitely should not have been placed last. More like second! I do not know much about her, but what i will judge is the jacket im not such a fan for the shoulder peices. THE DRESS ALREADY HAS PLENTY GOING ON.

OLSEN STYLE


The twin fashionista have been around for double the decade. Which means double the style. They have such a phenomenal vision in style and looks. Their style is very boho and relaxed; I would say in between effortless and just whatever looks good. Almost every designer invites them to sit front row at their shows, which is a honor for both them and the Olsen's. The designers they are seen to wear a lot are Oscar De La Renta, Calvin Klein, Christian Louboutin, and Chanel especially. They have come along way from full house, to their movies in their teenage years, and now, Fashion idols, Fashion icons.




This picture is so amazing. All my favorite powerful ladies. (from left, Amy Astley, Ashely Olsen, Anna Wintour , M-K Olsen) - Teen Vogue event

Entering NYU and blending is with the rest of the students. This is why their style started to emerge * big sunglasses/ boho jewelry

Becoming much more sophisticated

Age 16 and on the carpet for the Charlie's Angles Premiere. I have to say the shoes just ruin the outfit.
Start of their movie career in the late 90's. Very classic outfit: Eye catching Tube top and denims

Kate Middleton entering the Royal Family



Kate Middleton, the 28 year old engaged to THE PRINCE OF ENGLAND. She was welcomed and introduced to the royal English family when she was 20 and has come a long way since then. She transformed her self from a college party girl to the fairest of them all! Also shes been honored and admired so much for her fashion that she has been placed on the "best dressed list"


Though what I don't admire is when she wears jeans and a top.. Just like that. I get it she wants to be comfy but that's not what fashion is about. "Fashion is not about feeling comfy its about looking good." Now that she is part of the royal family she should through away those clothes, its just not appropriate on her title. For example that would kind of suck for her to be known as,"The princess who dresses in sloppy jeans and a shirt." Though, bottom line she is beautiful and classy just needs to think a little harder!







This outfit is a no no

Regards,
The Queen of England

CELEBRITIES AS HOMELESS!!

You may think that celebrities have all the money in the world and if they ever wear last weeks trend they are bankrupt. But Katie Holmes, Taylor Momsem Blake Lively, Sarah Jessica Parker, Geri Halliewell, yeah bankrupt? Them? Never going to happen. So you might ask your self why would they ever step outside of their house looking like a straight up homeless. Unfortunately I don't have the answers, but I do have the pictures that you can dwell and dish on, and maybe just maybe figure that answer out yourself.
