Chanel and Lanvin have encouraged the high messy bun. Think cinnamon roll on your head. Tasty and fun. Add little dashes of decoration for the icing on top of the updo. And Voila you will be the the hostess with the mostess.
The simplest way to create this look is by brushing your hair upside down. Take a firm elastic band and secure a tight ponytail on top. Twist hair like a rope so that it is starting to turn on itself and secure with bobby pins. The best way to secure a boby pin is to slide the UNOPENED bobby pin on the sides around the up do gabbing a bit of hair then in a sharp angle (90 degrees) slide underneath the updo and scrap the scalp. Imagine that you are sewing the bobby pin in like the letter “L”. This should anchor the hair to the scalp. If placed properly and you have a medium amount of hair that is shoulder length the most boby pins you should need are 10- 12 max.. I can do my waist length hair in 5 bobby pins but it had taken a lot of practice to get it down to that amount.

The dichotomy of fashion is in two modes at the moment and who will take over?
Girly, fluffy, flowy and ruffles and I aint talkin’ potato chips with very busy prints is the new chique? Think delicate prints and gingham, flowers and color with hints of shimmer. Filmy wedding sheer on the beach that move with the wind.
The Haute Couture forecast is being set by Alber Elbaz of Lanvin induces the look of sharp shoulders and tidy shapes that are booty delicious drape. Multi-colored Gothic prints with skinny boots is the look now to promote attitude of the girl who wants to shine. In the world of haute couture the prominent colors will be nudes and whites as this promotes the construction and movement of the clothing by creating no focus except on the construction.
Who do you think will win the fashion showdown to spring?
So what is the big deal about mineral make-up?
It appears that in QUALITY mineral make-up does not contain talc, oil or fragrance for those who are sensitive. With an easy application and a little bit of product it goes along way. I think the real benefit it is a no fail way to look and feel natural with a better option for your skin.
The key to mineral make-up is to balance moisture on your skin. Use a powder base on oily skin and use products that have more levels of moisture on skin lacking moisture. When applying mineral make-up keep in mind that use downward motions with your powder brush or your fingers because there is a fine surface of hair laying over the top of the skin. When you brush upwards you go against the grain of that hair that then produces a chalky or a unrefined look.
The trend appears to be a healthy glow focusing on the blushing bride look. Clean, beige and taupes for eyes and a healthy glow on the cheeks with a bit matching tinted gloss for your lips.
If you check out Youtube there are a ton of free tutorials about how you can apply your make-up to look like a movie star or just next door girl pretty.
