What's The SHIMMER All About?!!

Shimmer, Shimmer, Shimmer!! We've seen it on the eyes, lips, and nails of our favorite stars and is already gearing up for this Spring's hottest new looks. Are you ready for the shimmer? How much shimmer is too much shimmer? And can I wear it everyday?

Ladies, as the spring season is almost upon us, we are seeing that sparkle and glitter  aren't only for the runway and red carpet. You can get the same looks as your famous counterparts for a fraction of the cost. Shimmer is also one of those things that you can dress up or down. Add a lot of shimmer and glitter for a glamorous night on the town with the hubby or formal, black tie events; Scale back the shimmer for a casual evening with friends or movie night.  Yes, shimmer or glitter can be worn daily. It can be worn to work, however not as you would at a fine dining restaurant. Running errands or taking kids to school, never fear there's a shimmer lipgloss or lipstick that can make your run of the mill, everyday outfit POP.

Take a look at the many ways to glitter and shimmer it up!

What's YOUR Color!!!

Hair Color, a nice change to a boring head of hair, right? See a color you want, pick it up, or have it done at your local salon right? Wrong! There are a lot of factors that go into getting the best, but more importantly the RIGHT color to accentuate your hair.

First of all, when choosing hair color, it's very important that you know what category that you fall into. These categories are defined as Warm or Cool. Why is this so important, you may ask? Because just as when you are picking a foundation, you don't want the color clashing with your skin tone. However, your skin tone is not the only factor to choosing the perfect hair color. Your eye color, your natural, and previous artificial color play a pivotal role as well.

Color Blocking Still On For Spring 2013

Though we are still in the throws of winter, many woman are already thinking about and preparing for this years spring fashion. Are you wondering what's in and what's out this year?

Well, don't shelve those color blocked heels just yet. Because from the look of things, this spring is going to be a very big color blocking year. The new trends are leaning towards and favoring multicolored heels and stilettos.

Remember, though, whenever coloring blocking your shoes, don't overdo the clothing. Pick the item that you are matching the heels or stilettos to. Also, don't overdo patterns when color blocking with shoes. However, you can pick a bold plaid and choose to bring out a bright color within that pattern to put emphasis on. The goal is to make a bold yet sophisticated statement without looking as if you are going to the circus. You may also highlight one color of the color blocked shoe paired with solids, whether shirt and pant or blouse and skirt.

Get Lost: Bermuda Shorts

WHO SAID BERMUDA SHORTS WERE GONE FOR GOOD..........

I was never REALLY a fan of them when I was younger because for me they were just an awkward length, but in all actuality....they're kinda cool, versatile & chic....now that I'm more mature and older.  They work for a tall woman such as myself and also give you a more professional feel!
