Make Me Beautiful

I wanted to continue the discussion that I started last week with showing you who and what has inspired me to overcome my fears in fashion. There are many different factors like the fashion and style books that I have read (Victoria Beckham, Rachel Zoe, Nina Garcia), certain blogs (The Fashion Bomb, The Vintage Society) as well as certain fashion magazines (ELLE UK). But I a couple of fashionista’s have really showed me how to make fashion my own and wear what I want, when I want. The first young lady is the stylish actress Kerry Washington:
The way the saturated colors work so beautifully together, no one else would have thought of wearing that skirt the way she did.

Who knew rainbow sequence could be so fun, cute and sophisticated all at the same time?

Fringe leather boots with a walkable heel, Agathe always finds the best vintage items on ebay and other markets in her hometown.

I love the drama of this photo as well as her feminine and sexy outfit.

The color black mixed with florals looks so fresh and pretty, I love it!

Pretty tiered pink dress with stripper heels, an unexpected combo that really works. Agathe is always one step ahead of the trends.

Chronic headaches are usually headaches that cannot be controlled with normal, over the counter medication. Chronic headaches are also severe enough to inhibit normal daily functions.

You would think that for as much as we depend on our four-layer bio suit covering, that we would take better care of it? How about touching up that wonderful body part called skin?

Exfoliating your skin will remove the dead skin cells that get blocked in the pores. These dead cells can often fool people into believing that their skin is dry and will give a dry appearance if they aren’t removed.

Once the skin has been exfoliated and a good moisturizer applied the complexion will look alive and give the skin a refreshed look that will help you look younger.

Finding the correct exfoliating products and moisturizers can take some time because you have find ones that are compatible with your skin type.

Get advice from people who understand the various requirements of the different skin types and then test small samples of these products to see how they react with your skin.

If you have sensitive skin then you will need to be particularly careful with the products that you choose.

Once you find products that are suitable and use them on a daily basis you will find that the condition of your skin can improve dramatically and this will make you look healthier and younger.

Regular skin treatment will also help to keep your skin in top condition for a lot longer so you can make your skin lie about your true age. Your skin will age much slower than it would if you didn’t use these products regularly.

The sooner you start using good face care products the better your skin will cope with the environment and that will certainly bolster your future youthful appearance.

Consider skin care products your insurance against the ravages of time and one of the best investments that you can make aside from maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

By caring for your skin when you are younger you will save a lot of money on more expensive treatments to repair damage and aging later in life and there is nothing better than care and maintenance to ward off the signs of old age.

There is nothing wrong with growing older as long as we can keep our health. But no one wants to look like we should already have expired before our time.

As a matter of fact, it has been shown that our later years can be some of the most rewarding of our life. So, if you have not been taking good care of yourself; inside and out, make a vow to start today and let’s show these young people how to really live.

Love Love Love Keri Russell’s hat! Any idea where I can find one of my own?

Kate Hudson on the set of her new movie, Bride Wars. I think she’s wearing a wiglet- her real hair is thin like mine- but she’s so cute!

I like Jennifer Love “Size 2″ Hewitt but I would rethink the blousey shirt with the jeans. I always feel and look pregnant when I wear shirts like that.

Imagine having unlimited funds to dress your child in the hippest clothes? Gwen can!

Jennifer Lopez, it was only a matter of time before she was out and about again! Doesn’t she look mildly puffy in the face?

If you are a celeb, even if you have just given birth you must go out and be seen and photographed! Jennifer Lopez proves my point.

I celebrate my birthday at Red Robin with a water and a veggie burger. But Fergie throws a bash with Quentin Tarantino and a host of other famous peeps.

Did you watch the Kids Choice Awards? Cameron Diaz was there looking very casual. Thats her style- no fuss, California girl, tan all year, low key.

Love her style! And her earrings. Cate Blanchett looking lovely.

Oh gosh, what on earth did Lara Flynn Boyle do to her face? She was very very cute back in the day. This is what happens when you go overboard on the injections and fillers I guess.

Everything from the waist up is good- I like Rihanna’s bustier, the makeup and hair. But the diaper pants and green nails have to go!

My kids watch Shia LeBouf on Even Stevens reruns all the time. He’s looking swell.Technically, I could be his mother and that is a scary thought.

Imagine wearing an outfit like that to go to the mall? Victoria Beckham probably doesn’t own a pair of sweats and sneakers. I bet her pajamas are designer and she wears high heeled maribou trimmed mules as slippers.

You know I tell it like it is. I’ll let you know when it’s worthwhile to blow your dough. But I’ll also tell you when I find an amazing bargain buy – like ecoTOOLS cosmetic brushes.

These brushes feature bamboo handles (bamboo has a low impact on the earth’s resources), synthetic bristles, and metallic ferrule made from recycled aluminum cans. The cosmetic brushes are housed in reusable/biodegradable pouches, printed with plant-based ink, and each item has a “green” tip on the back of the package…so everyone who purchases a piece of the collection discovers another small step that can create a greener lifestyle. Plus 1% of all annual sales provides financial support to environmental initiatives.

The standouts of the collection are the larger brushes. I’ve been using the Powder Brush almost every day since I got it. It’s unbelievably soft, applies my powder like a dream, and it’s only $7.99!

Individual ecoTOOLs brushes cost between $2.99 and $7.99. But for just $10.99, you can own the 5 Piece Brush Set – housed in a 100% linen and hemp cosmetic case.

ecoTOOLs products (they also offer bath and body items) are available at Walgreens, Kmart, and Ulta.
