Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 4, 2015Leave a Comment

America’s Next Top Model’s Winnie Harlow is proving that true beauty cannot be defined or categorized by skin color. Winnie gained attention and fans from around the globe for her modeling prowess as well as strength to immerse herself in the fashion industry despite having a skin discoloration condition known as vitilago. Harlow is continuing to smash barriers this year by being apart of Diesel’s Spring/Summer 2015 ad campaign.

The campaign contains multiple group shots that look lively, fun and effortlessly chill. The cool kids have definitely come out to play and they are ready to party whether they are in their skivvies or some killer leather or denim. Congratulations to Harlow on the campaign and remember that you can do anything and everything you put your mind to achieve.

2015 Spring Beauty Look: Pixie Eyes

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015January 30, 2015Leave a Comment

If you love for your eyes to have some razzle and dazzle then this beauty look is just for you! The Anthony Vaccarello Spring 2015 Ready-to-Wear runway show had models showcasing really cool pixie eye makeup. Makeup artist, Tom Pecheux, dusted and sprinkled black glitter below the bottom lashes of the model’s eyes. The look served to mimic mascara or eyeliner that had been smudged due to lounging poolside, having been slept in or a late night on the town dancing the night away. The ending look is care-free but to us still looks more like perfection than a smudged hot mess.

Get the Look: Here are a few tips to keep in mind to make this pixie look your very own. Pecheux kept the skin under the eyes free of powder and product which allowed the skin’s natural oils to catch the glitter for true lasting power and a stronger effect.

What to Wear Spring 2015: Moroccan Flava

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015January 30, 2015Leave a Comment

As the saying goes, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” Avoid any fashion disaster moments this spring and prep those closets with the right couture. We loved the Nicholas K Spring 2015 Ready-To-Wear collection that’s inspiration was road tripping through Morocco. We were sold with the cargo pants (so comfortable) and gorgeous shawls but then the collection upped the ante with silk tops, side tied skirts (the 90s are back baby) as well as super cute knee length shorts.

Spring 2015 Fashion Trend: Palm Springs

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015January 28, 2015Leave a Comment

February is literally days away which means we are approaching spring! Yay, for new fashions and much warmer weather conditions which we are confident all of you back east will appreciate. We spied with our fashion eyes numerous prints but one that stuck out from the usually plaids or stripes was a palm print. After the winter season its always nice to think of relaxing on the beach of a gorgeous island. There was just something cute, girly and laid-back about this print which enhanced its fun factor. Therefore, spring into the upcoming season in palm printed clothing to really show you’re ready to jet-set while looking fabulous.

Beauty Quickie: It happens to the best of us, we find a fragrance that we absolutely love and get a little too spritz happy. Therefore, what can you do to tone down very strong fragrance? Calm your perfume by dabbing on rubbing alcohol with a cotton ball onto your skin. The alcohol will reduce the scent without altering it so that you can continue to be the lovely scented queen that you are.

Increase those smooches ladies and make your lips one sexy attraction! From exfoliation to application of products here are a few tips to make your lips gorgeous.

1. Use a damp cloth nightly to smooth and buff off flaky dry skin and seal the deal with a coat of lip balm.

2. Keep your cute lipstick from bleeding by patting on a tiny bit of concealer around your lips.

3. Make lip color “ever-lasting” by waiting a few minutes after application to blot with a tissue. After the lip color has set and been blotted dust lips with powder and apply another coat of color.
