Camel Coat + Heeled Over the Knee Boots

Camel Coat + Heeled Over the Knee Boots
 I picked up this chunky black turtleneck right before my trip and literally wore it every other day.

  It’s perfectly oversized  and not too tight around the neck.
 
I paired it with my favorite camel coat and heeled boots.  If you live in a warmer climate, I suggest buying the lightweight version and pairing it with skinny jeans and a white T.

I am thrilled to share this new editorial with you. We shot it on the rooftop of the Galeries Lafayette, in their private shopping suite where I had the chance to pick and choose some gorgeous party outfits… Black has always been my color of predilection, for probably everything. As soon as I saw this black leather dress from Lanvin, my heart literally melted. It felt like Matrix met Audrey Hepburn and they had a baby together. Boom. It’s such an edgy yet incredibly beautiful piece. I wanted to mix it up with silver details such as these Gucci heels, Messika diamonds and a little Lady Dior bag.\

Wow Easy DIY Ice Beasuty Cofidential

Wow Easy DIY Ice Beasuty Cofidential


                       Hi Guys !!! Loveee :*

Is cold weather giving you the beauty blues? Don’t fret! Chapped cheeks aside, it turns out ice is your new beauty BFF! Sometimes a chilly rinse or frozen facial is just what the doctor ordered when things begin to dull during a long cold winter. Icing your skin is believed to improve circulation as well as ward off wrinkles. Plus, it’s refreshing after spending a day with your radiators on blast. Here are a few tricks to try with ice the next time you’re snowed in!
Shrink A Zit
Holding ice on a pesky pimple is a no-fuss way to get the red out. Ice decreases inflammation, and can even relieve the pain associated with acne. Wrap a cube in a ziplock baggie (a rough towel can break tender skin), hold against the affected area for five to ten minutes, and tell that zit to chill!
De-Puff Eyes
Rough night? Reach for an ice cube while you wait for your morning coffee to brew. Wrapping a cube in a washcloth and holding over the eyes can reduce early morning puffiness, and make you look and feel more alert. For a stronger effect, freeze cubes of caffeinated black tea, or store sliced cucumbers on ice to keep you feeling fresh.
Prime Skin
Before patting on foundation, run an ice cube over your face, focusing on areas with enlarged pores. The cold water will cause pores to reduce in size and minimize their appearance under makeup. Icing these areas before your application of a primer can yield extra-smooth results fit for an ice queen.
Scrub Away
For a skin-brightening pick-me-up, make a DIY icy scrub by blending fruits or veggies (like cucumber, strawberries or mango) with water and freezing in ice cube trays. Once frozen, gently rub a fruity cube over your face as part of your weekly facial. The chunky texture will exfoliate as the ice melts into a juicy slush.
                                                            Thanks You !

How to : Winged Eyeliner # Makeup Tutorials # Step by Step

How to : Winged Eyeliner # Makeup Tutorials # Step by Step


There’s something about a simple winged eyeliner look that looks good on everyone. The extra flick of liner has been done since the ’50s and still adds that perfect dose of glamour needed to spruce any eye look up. It's surprisingly easy to create, and you could use any eyeliner formula—from liquids, gels, and creams.


STEP 1
Dip your brush in eyeliner and gently drag it along the lash line and past the top outer corner of your eye. You want the brush to follow the upward curve of your eye. For a more dramatic winged look, draw farther out and angle the liner slightly more.
STEP 2
Next, you want to create the winged effect. Place the brush at the outer corner of the line you just drew and work back toward the center of your eye, filling it in using light strokes.
STEP 3
As you get closer to the inner lash line, paint a thinner line. You want the effect of the liner to be thin to thick from the inner corner of the eye to the outer.
STEP 4
Connect the liner to the inner corner of your eye and fill in any missing spaces along the lash line.
STEP 5
Completed your winged eyeliner!

How to : Curl Lashes

How to : Curl Lashes


Now that I am a professional makeup artist, I still appreciate it. Curling the eyelashes is one of those parts of a makeup application that never gets much credit but can produce remarkable results when done correctly. With a proper curl, lashes look longer, thicker, fuller, and the eyes themselves appear larger and more awake.
Every artist has their own method, but here is my technique how to curl lashes for easy lash curling on a client or yourself—time-tested from years of experience.
Hold the curler the way you normally hold a pair of scissors. If you’re using the curler on a client, be sure to sanitize the entire tool, strip included.
Open the curler completely and bring it to the upper lashes, making sure to get the strip right up to the root of the eyelashes. Check to see that you have all of the lashes inside the curler. Place the tool upright, so the curve faces out.
Close the curler carefully on the lashes and squeeze lightly, with a soft, pulsing grip.
Now turn the curler upwards so that the curve of the curler lines up with the curve of your eyelid’s crease. This is the pro secret. It will give you curl, rather than a crimp effect.
Squeeze the curler handles in small pulses with light pressure, holding the tool in place for several seconds without blinking.
Walk the curler up from the root of the lash all the way to the tip, pressing and pulsing over the eyelash with the same pressure, until you reach the end.
Open the eyelash curler and examine the perfect pro curl. Repeat if necessary to define your lashes before applying makeup. Then, of course, do the other eye!
A lot of artists have their favorite lash curlers, myself include. The Shiseido and Shu Uemura are probably the two most popular with professionals. I do love them, but find they work better for flatter, less curved eye shapes.
For rounder eyes (the more common, universal shape), my two personal favorites are the Billy B Beauty Eyelash Curler and The Eyelash Curler from Kevyn Aucoin. Billy B’s is the ideal shape and size for most every eye and provides excellent pressure for perfect curl. The late makeup artist Kevyn Aucoin designed the Shu Uemura curler and felt it was not as universal as he wanted it to be. So he created his own, which is wider and allows for one of the closest, most precise curls I have ever seen.

How to : Tightline Eye Makeup

How to : Tightline Eye Makeup


Tightlining your eyes (also known as "invisible eye liner") is a great way to add subtle definition to your peepers. Most people think that the point of tightlining is to make your eyes look bigger, but according to Los Angeles-based makeup artist,Jason Sanchez “it’s to make your eyelashes appear thicker and fuller.” Instead of lining the skin above your lashes, you line the inside of the upper lash line and in between the roots of the lashes. As you can see in the picture below, filling in the inside of the lash line really creates an illusion of fuller lashes, more so than just with a mascara. This technique can be used for any casual or formal occasion, and is pretty easy to master. “For best results,” says Sanchez, “use a kohl eyeliner because it’s specifically formulated to hold in the wet area of the eye.


Before You Start
Make sure any product you use near your eye is clean. Not sure how to sanitize your eye liners?
Step 1:
Using clean fingers, gently lift your lashes upward. You'll see tiny gaps between your lash hairs, which you'll be filling in with eyeliner.
Step 2:
Using your eyeliner (we used Inglot Cosmetics Kohl Pencil), lightly dab it in between each individual lash and get as close to the root as possible.
Step 3:
Technically you’re done, but if you’d like to intensify the look even more, you can tightline your bottom lash line, too. Gently lift lower lashes downwards, and fill in the gaps between each lash.

Grey Faux Furry Cape + Royal Blue Pleated Skirt

Grey Faux Furry Cape + Royal Blue Pleated Skirt

Dear Lord, I am the worst person ever! I keep trying to keep my promise,
but it’s like Mission Impossible for me. Time is my worst enemy! We shot these pictures
on Tuesday, when the scenery was quite different than the one we see out the window, today. The temperature rose a bit during the weekend, so I’m ready for the next shooting. It took me almost a week to upload these, so hopefully this won’t happen again
with the next set. Don’t you just love this kind of strong contrasts?
Bold colors against the white snow. Instant mood boost for me.
Have a wonderful week, darlings!
 Kisses

Chic Little Dress + Comfy Belt Cardigan


Thanks to the weather I could wear this beautiful dress for the first time, it has a very original and colourful print, doesn’t it? The back is really cool ;) I opted for a gray cardigan on top (I also grabbed a coat but it was enough with the cardigan, awesome!) Since we were going to go for a walk and make the most out of the day, I wore my favourite sneakers, hahaha!! The colour touch was brought by this klein blue handbag, you already know how much I love this colour. There’s not much more to say but I think this is a very beautiful outfit

Cozy Oversized Faux Furry Jacket & Knee Leather Heeled Boots

Cozy Oversized Faux Furry Jacket & Knee Leather Heeled Boots


I've been looking for a cute faux fur option for a while now, and from the moment I saw it, I knew I finally found the one. Warm, cozy and slightly oversized, I can't get over the gray-to-black ombre and of course the hood. Lucky for me, and I can't believe I am actually saying it, but there it is, the weather's been a bit chilly lately, which normally puts quite a bit of damper on my mood but not lately. I suppose this fuzzy wonder might have something to do with it.

Causal Stripes Cut-out Dress # Back Zip Detail


I was so delighted when I found this dress on Asos. I had been looking for a cute striped dress for a while, something that can be dressy and casual at the same time. And needless to say that I just love the cut-out detail and the zip on the back. :) Nowadays I'm leaning towards the view: 'less is more'. I have certain time periods when I don't feel like wearing jewelry at ALL. Just like right now. Now you understand why I didn't do much accessorizing, the only trick I'd say is the red heels matching with my lipstick. Haha :D

                                          Love you Guys !!!
