Sexy slimming Valentine's Day: lady in red

0
0

by Daisy Lewellyn

Got a hot date? Here are some effortless chic tips and tricks for achieving a svelte and sexy look that will leave a lasting impression like never before.

slimmingvday-180.jpg

Secret Style Weapons:

Tasteful cleavage and a bare clavicle (a fancy word for collarbone) paired with a V-neckline will give you a shapely attractive bustline that is lean and clean. Squeeze-your-way-in ruching is a surefire way to create a Kim Kardashian-esque hourglass silhouette.

The higher your heels, the thinner your legs will look. Don't fret, you can double up on the shoe pads for extra comfort.

Boy Bonus:

Men are simple beings, and one thing that draws their attention are shiny hoops, not too big, and definitely not too small. They instantly give you a sassy flirtatious attitude that says "Hello Lover".

You're a scrub away from gorgeous cleavage

0

Cleavage-Katy-Perry.jpg
We don't know about you, but when we think of a celeb with gorgeous cleavage, it's definitely Katy Perry. Though we can't all have such curvaceous decollates, we can all have a healthy, glowing bosom, like the chanteuse! All you have to do is exfoliate...really. 

Just like we scrub our faces to get radiant skin, why wouldn't the same hold true for our chests? With Valentine's Day this coming Monday, and sensual cut-to-there dresses probably in most sexy ladies' wardrobe lineup for the romantic day, all you need is a gentle sugar scrub to be well on your way to all-eyes-on-you cleavage. 

The skin on your decolletage is much thinner than on the rest of your body, so a sugar scrub is the way to go. They desolve easily in the shower, creating a built-in safety harness for over-scrubbing. Salt scrubs don't dissipate as quickly, and can be way too abrasive for your upper chest area. A gentle scrubbing in the tub every day until the big day, followed by a rich body cream or lotion is the perfect formula for glowing skin.

We picked two of our favorite drugstore brands, and two of our favorite slightly pricier options (because sometimes, a girl just needs a splurge). Each gets the job done, and has its own unique makes-you-want-to-lick-it scent. 

1. Neutrogena Sugar Body Scrub Fresh Citrus, $9.24, amazon.com
2. Bliss Blood Orange + White Pepper Sugar Scrub, $36, sephora.com
3. Tree Hut Shea Sugar Body Scrub, $6.99, ulta.com

Sexy slimming Valentine's Day: back in black

by Daisy Lewellyn

Got a hot date? Here are some effortless chic tips and tricks for achieving a svelte and sexy look that will leave a lasting impression like never before.

slimmingvday2-180.jpg

Secret Style Weapons:

Wearing a black jacket on top of a dark noir shirt will widdle away the middle, or at least give a pretty darn good illusion. Keep the party going with my favorite trick: black opaque tights worn with black platform heeled shoes. The result: a long lean sexy looking leg.

We love a great miniskirt with pooch concealing power. This fashionable number is full of color, personality, and a mega bow that covers your belly while you fill it with celebratory chocolates and champagne.

Boy Bonus:

Wear the stretch lace stretch t-shirt that is not only flattering, but makes him think of lingerie. You are fully covered, yet still mysterious. Sexy, but still safe.

Love it, or hate it: Lindsay Lohan's arraignment style

lindsay-lohan-arraignment-outfit.jpg

Just when we thought we'd seen the worst of Lindsay Lohan's court ensembles, she wears this little number (and we do mean little) to court on Wednesday for her arraignment in a felony grand theft case. We were, and still are, in shock that her lawyer did not request that she change. We're also baffled over what point Lindsay was trying to make.

What do you think of the look? Is it inappropriate, or can she get away with it because she's in Hollywood.

NY Fashion Week Fall 2011: runway review, day 1

0
0

Runway coverage provided by: The Fashion Spot

New York Fashion Week started only yesterday, and already there are some clear trends for Fall 2011 emerging. Layered looks, long skirts (including some worn over pants), off-the-shoulder tops, and wideleg pants all made appearances at a variety of shows. Here are highlights from some of the best shows of the day:

BCBGMAXAZRIA

BCBG designers Max and Lubov Azria can always be counted on to deliver a lively atmosphere in a room packed with celebrities (Jennifer Love Hewitt, Taraji P. Henson, Maggie Rizer, Kelly Rowland, Garcelle Beauvais, Katrina Bowden, and Ashanti were in attendance). Many of the runway looks were long and layered, with turtlenecks in contrasting colors worn under a number of looks, including some of the floor sweeping dresses. Lightweight fabrics combined with demure slits and flouncy skirt and dress silhouettes made for a number of feminine, effortless looks.

Vena Cava

Vena Cava stayed true to their vintage, boho-inspired aesthetic with a collection that was full of breezy silhouettes, long skirts, and plenty of prints. The metal-worked jewelry by Dannijo and dainty black berets worn by many of the models were perfect for adding structure to many of the looks, which were often free-flowing and casual.

Richard Chai Love

Richard Chai Love presented plenty of contemporary wardrobe staples in a dark palette of grey, blue, green, and black. While there were no real surprises when it came to the relaxed, slouchy aesthetic of Chai's collection, there was an unexpected off-the-shoulder ruffled top and maxi dress worn by a platinum blonde model with a jolt of hot pink dye in her hair.

Spring fashion trends 2011: in living color

Sephora by OPI Urban Ballerina collection

Ballerina-OPI-collection.jpg
Since last spring, neutrals - especially in shoes - have been on trend. They extend your legs to glorious lengths, so the fact that nudes and neutrals are still the talk of the fashion town this spring (and will continue into fall) is hardly a surprise at all. Enter the Sephora by OPI Urban Ballerina collection. This new color set is probably one of our favorite releases by OPI as of late (second to that would be the Texas collection.) Adding a neutral tone to your nails - either your hands or feet - is honestly the best addition to any outfit or accessory. It's the perfect canvas for your wardrobe - trust us. Each of these colors is so soft, so creamy, so delicious, it makes us want to do plies in our pink tutus! 

By far, our favorite hues are Leotard Optional (far left), and Break a Leg-Warmer! (far right.) Every gal needs these in her lacquer drawer. Two of the much lighter hues, which make you look super tan, btw, are The Way Tutu His Heart and Let's Plie (which is metallic, unlike the prior three that are opaque.) 

Rounding off the three sparkly colors is Shiny Dancer (top row grey), and Who's Spinning Tonight (grapey-purple.) We prefer the creamy opaque colors, but the metallic tones are fun, too, especially that uber bright purple, though we aren't entirely sure how it fits into the collection (we guess every girl needs a little pizazz, huh?) $9.50, sephora.com


Love it, or hate it: Scarlett Johansson's Oscars look

Scarlett-Johansson-Oscars- 2011.jpg

We never thought we'd see Scarlett Johansson on anyone's worst dress list, but today it actually happened. Scarjo got a couple of worst dressed nods for her lacy Dolce and Gabanna gown. We didn't think this was her best look, but certainly far from the worst Oscars look we've seen.

What do you think of the look? Love it, or hate it?
