Why We Love It: The geometric designs and strong structural pieces are spellbinding. We got lost in the creativity of the collection due to it’s array of beauty that seemed to meld hard with the soft. The fashions are modern, futuristic, vibrant as well as oozing a sexy sophistication.
Beauty Notes: The strong blue eyeshadow made us take notice but still didn’t overpower any of the couture masterpieces. This bold is great to add a little jazz to your autumn and winter ensembles.
One classic color pairing that can be worn by anyone no matter their couture taste would be the famous black with white. Great thing about the combination of these shades is that you can make it as conservative or boisterous as you want while still looking fresh, stylish and well put together. STYLE TIP: Who says that you have to actually wear your coat with your arms in the sleeves? Add more flair to your look by simply allowing your coat or jacket to rest prettily on your shoulders. Plus, more of your ensemble will remain clearly visible.

Little Red Riding Hood, girl you might as well eat your heart out. Dolce & Gabbana’s autumn/winter accessories for 2014 invoke an almost fantasy, fairy-tale in a deep forest vibe. The collection includes handbags, shoes and chic shades (sunglassess) that are embellished with lace, jewels and floral baroque patterns. If you ever wanted to feel like a princess or queen for the day, indulging in these accessories will definitely make the dream come true.
Beauty Quickie: When painting your toenails a toenail separator will help to ensure that the nail polish does not smudge before it can dry completely. What if you do not own a separator? Take a tissue and roll it up then zig zag it between your toes. Doing this will create the same separation that a foam version would in order to ensure your nail application looks professional.
“The wise do not buy into other people’s perceptions of who they are and what they are capable of. Instead, they bypass a person’s public persona and see who they are in their highest expression. When you see actions taken with integrity, instead of words only, you will then know a soul’s worth.”

We love any hairstyle that is effortless, cool yet super stylish. Ponytails will never go out of style, especially since the ways to design one continues to get a fresh makeover on a yearly basis. We enjoyed the look created for Roksanda for the autumn/winter collection. The hair look is pulled back with not so much emphasis on sleek perfection allowing a few wisps to to escape and is accessorized with a headband. The headband is a perfect addition to deal with the impending winds of the fall and winter seasons.
Beauty Quickie: The natural color of your toenails can become discolored due to various nail polish shades such as blue or purple. To prevent this from occurring use the same tactics as you would on your fingernails. Apply a base coat to each of your toenails before any nail color application.
“Beauty shouldn’t be about changing yourself to achieve an ideal or be more socially acceptable. Real beauty, the interesting, truly pleasing kind, is about honoring the beauty within you and without you. It’s about knowing that someone else’s definition of pretty has no hold over you.”

Beauty Quickie: Have you ever noticed white lines developing on your fingernails? These lines are created due to a protein deficiency. The old adage is true, “You are what you eat,” so it is very important to take in vital nutrients to keep your body including your nails healthy.
