Real beauty is to be true to oneself. That’s what makes me feel good.”

We are loving the old world feel and classiness of the Dolce & Gabbana 2014 autumn/winter collection. The accessories designed for men are practical yet stylish and go from being dapper to bold and boisterous. The collection includes bags, shoes and fashion forward eye-wear. Your favorite guy is sure to look and feel like a million bucks with any of these wardrobe must-haves.
If you are searching for a nail color to test out this season you may opt for a tint in the gray family or metallics. Metallic shades are a great way to add some extra bling to your nail look, especially if you are not so proficient at adding jewels or other embellishments to your nail designs. Moreover, a shade of gray will help give off the same feel just in a more muted fashion.
It seems like Rihanna changes her hairstyle almost every week and we are not mad. Each style looks amazing on the 26-year-old stunner. RiRi’s Caribbean flavored wavy tresses were transformed into sleek lustrous locks (really look at that shine) as she attended her Rogue Man Fragrance launch which was held at Macy’s Lenox Square in Atlanta, GA. Rihanna got fans excited for the event by tweeting:
Fashion Notes: Rihanna was wearing a design by Adam Selman from the Spring 2015 collection.
We absolutely love braids because when they are installed as well as maintained properly tresses may flourish. Braided hairstyling is perfect for protecting your hair from harmful elements and excessive use of heat. Many women have successfully grown fuller, longer hair thanks to allowing their strands to rest in braids. Interested in braids but not quite sure what type of hairstyle might fit you? No problem here is a little hair inspiration to help you out.
Wrap hairstyling is becoming increasingly more popular among black women. These are great hairstyles to try when you may be short on time or want to look chic while you protect and cover your tresses. You may choose to cover all your hair or leave some out, works on all textures from curly to straight as well as braids and locks.
Up-dos are trending this season so a little inspiration may be necessary to help get those hair pins and hairspray creation juices flowing! It doesn’t matter if you like messy or sleek hair, braids, twists or chignons. This season is a “Go” on all of these options. From the Jenny Packham Fall/Winter 2014 fashion show to the Angel Sanchez Autumn/Winter 2014 runway show models wore gorgeous, stylish hair buns.
One celebrity who does hair buns (chignons) like no other is supermodel Tyra Banks. She has worn then high, low, big and small. Get inspired and follow Tyra’s lead rock those up-dos!
When buying cosmetics it is important to know if you skin undertone is warm or cool. Products are usually designed with these aspects in mind and if you get it wrong you could possibly wind up resembling Ronald McDonald. To avoid this beauty blunder you just need to perform a quick little test.
Start off by standing in front of a mirror while holding an orange piece of paper up next to your face. Observe whether doing so causes your skin to give off a glowing appearance. If you glow then this means you have warm undertones, if not, you are apart of the cool family and that’s “cool” too.
