30 January 2008 - Hollywood Icons –‘Ladies I give you Marilyn Monroe’
A testimony to the fact that Marilyn must have done something right is that even after all these years, Hollywood Stars and woman in general are still being inspired by her glamours look.
What makes her a sex goddess still today?
Of course, most of her appeal lies in her mysterious personality and her unique sense of fashion. Thanks to her, the '50s have never looked so 'damn hot'.
Her bedroom eyes are made up in a sexy style - with black eyeliner and lots and lots of mascara.
The sex kitten and seductive feel is due to her red hot lipstick. An inside tip for all you style-wise ladies: hot lipstick makes the teeth look whiter and it drives men crazy.
Her mind-blowing appeal wouldn't be complete without the platinum blonde locks she's famous for.
At the end of the day, all of the Paris’s, Lohan’s and Britney’s don't amount to half of what Marilyn was able to achieve (and that's the depressing part). Our values seem to have diminished in time and the future doesn't look as rosy as Tinkerbell's (Paris' dog) latest outfit.
Catch you next time!

17 January 2008 - Flesh Metal Mayhem
As women we are so fanatical about what is new, what is fashionable and what helps us maintain our status of beauty and style-wise ladies.
Still, there will always be something new to be learned, even for us pro’s, because you can never know too much.
If you want something that is colourful, not too prominent and is able to make your features stand out, then you should definitely go for MAC’s Flesh Metal make-up style this summer.
If you love metallic tones, and are an earth and sun loving junkie, then you have even more reasons to go wild over this one.
Metallic shades ranging from gold to taupe and bronze are suggested for your lids, while sheer bright lips and a highly lustrous shine to your cheeks is the key to achieving this fantastic look.
The great thing about this style is that it goes brilliantly with any eye, skin or hair colour. I definitely recommend that you try out this style at least once!
Catch you next time!

7 January 2008 - 2009 Wedding Colour Forecast
In 2009, blue may be the trendiest, but shades will encompass various hues. Besides turquoise blue, designers are featuring clear bright blue, green blue, deep violet blue, cobalt blue, palace blue, and Williamsburg blue in their collections.
Think bright, strong or saturated hues of this dynamic colour, with navy the only shade missing from the 2009 fashion palette.
Blue is universally flattering - there is a shade perfect to suit everyone's complexion and hair colour in your wedding party. It also is traditional, classic and timeless. It will also be the perfect "something blue" for your day.
Other colours which are worth noting, which also recently made the runways, were light sherbet colours, perfect for the warmer weather such as Lemon Yellow, Pale Peach, Light Salmon, and Powder Blue.
Ultimately, your wedding colours should reflect both you and your partners tastes. Whether you choose a colour which is trendy or your favourite hue, make sure that it is one that you will enjoy looking at in your wedding photos for many years to come.
Catch you next time!
