Beauty and Fashion

It’s no secret but millennials seem to be getting a lot of heat from other generations for just about everything they do. Seems like nobody has anything better to do than write about their spending or eating habits.

But for a change a pace, today we are going to talk about something completely different – Millennials’ strange obsession with fashion trends. Being a millennial myself, I have to admit that some fashion trends just need to stop or die once and for all.

Whether you are a fashion diva, trendsetter or a fashion stylist you need and want to follow the latest trends, whether you like them or not. But come on guys and girls, some of these trends are downright horrible.

So let’s get to it and finally, maybe we can get some support to stop these extremely bad millennial fashion trends.

Stop wearing over-the-top festival styles when you’re NOT at a festival

Festival fashion is practical while attending a music festival like Coachella, as you need to fit in. Plus, it gives you the perfect excuse to go all rock-an-roll and still look cool while doing it.

If you are unsure what you’d typically wear to a music festival, just envision outfits made entirely from mesh, sheer fabrics or sequined pants or holographic styles. And let’s not forget their trademark – the culturally inappropriate tribal headdress.

Fashion is meant to be fun, but wearing these outrageous styles in the real world is just pushing your fashion freedom a bit too far. It doesn’t fit into the real world and never will, so just stop wearing it, please!

Stop wearing sweatpants everywhere you go

Millennials, are you tired of being accused of being lazy and unmotivated? Well, maybe if you stopped wearing sweatpants that look like you slept in them, in public, then other generations will stop calling you lazy. We all love sweatpants because they are comfortable and but there is a time and place for everything.

But lets not put all of the blame on the millennials for pushing sweatpants on us; it pretty much is everyone trying to do the same. But sweatpants indicate no matter how old you are or how big of a jock you are that you are stuck in a fashion rut. It’s not stylish, fashionable or trendy, its just plain comfortable. So step out of your comfort zone and wear something that is still comfortable but actually looks good on you.

Stop it with the over-sized baggy clothes

This trend seems to tie in with my thoughts about the sweat pants, clothes that literally have no shape to them. Shapeless clothing means shapeless people. People claim they love shapeless dresses, blouses, jumpsuits, and etc. because they are ultra-comfortable.

But this trend only does one thing for you, it makes you literally disappear under your clothes. Don’t get me started on what it does for your body, but believe me I say that it does not flatter you. If you are thin, you look deathly thin, if you are slightly overweight, well now, you just really look fat. So stop hiding under your clothes!

Stop it with the uncomfortable plastic shoes

Millennials, I must applaud you all for making everyone think twice about using a plastic straw in their drink, as you are all so focused on saving the environment. But why do you want us to wear plastic shoes?

Not only are they ugly, but also they are so damn uncomfortable. Plus, they are a health risk! Doctors are constantly warning us to stop wearing them. Just because a rock star or celebrity wears them for a few minutes for a picture doesn’t mean you should be wearing them.

Do you think that getting the same hairstyle you had back in high school will give you that youthful vibe you are looking for? You might have felt young when you had that hairstyle before, but if you get it now you will only look dated. (And it might even make you look ten years older).

Instead of redoing that perm you had for your prom or those side-swept bangs from the late 90’s, try out one of these ageless styles below. We asked some top hair stylists, who keep our favorite celebs looking ageless, for the best hairstyles to instantly take years off your face and probably your overall outlook on life.

From pixies to long hair, here is everything you need to know!

Short hair

Embrace the pixie, by giving it a more lived in look. Make sure you have a little extra length around the face for a warmer and softer look. This youthful hairstyle is very low maintenance, as it doesn’t require extensive styling every day. Plus it looks fantastic on all face shapes.

Chin-length hair

The most known chin-length cut is the famous bob, but avoid the harsh angular bob from the 90’s that didn’t have any layers. Instead get a playful bob with soft, flowing layers around the face. Layers will crown your face, hence giving your entire face an instant lift. Plus, the tousled bob look is relatively low maintenance and looks great with highlights.

Shoulder-length hair

Jennifer Aniston has managed to look ageless due to the staggered layers of her shoulder-length hair. Avoid haircuts that have harsh edges, as it will make your face look weighed down and heavy. Get your hair stylist to give you longer angles that will hit just below your jaw, keeping your face looking soft and young.

Wavy hair

Wavy hair envisions youthfulness, but the key is allowing your hair to embrace its natural waves without getting too uptight. If you tend to have frizzy or curly hair, calm your hair with a deep conditioner and a curl softener. Avoid getting too many layers along the back of your head and only a few around your face to soften your face.

Long hair

Long hair is a timeless classic when you have the right cut. The key to mastering this look is by keeping your hair in tip-top shape and healthy, otherwise you will just look like a ratty old hippy from Canada.

Get the look by having a longer fringe or a side bang, as this will create movement and soften the face. Plus, remember hair longer than your breastbone area is too long and will age you by ten years.

Up-dos

Youthful up-dos should be kept simple and slightly undone. Avoid up-dos that are overly polished or too tight, as this will make you look older and tired. Up-dos are a classic style that every woman should master such as the upswept, casual French twist.

There is a common saying amongst women that there is no greater happiness than realizing you fit back again into your favorite pair of jeans. You have tried everything and nothing worked, so going back to basics and fit in the old style means that you still have the same body.

This is a wonderful feeling, so you can rest assured that there is nothing easier on earth than getting fat! Some people use the “past back to present” practice to lose some weight. It is just a task of great proportion to be able to get the excess back on a compacted space. The more your jeans compress the more you will have to lose!

This is only an example of how practical this piece of clothing can be. Jeans are set to be a wide spread uniform type attire for the people of Earth. If we were to be colonized by aliens from other planet!

We all have a pair of jeans somewhere occupying a place of honor in our wardrobe. Is such a versatile piece that you can find somewhere in the world, at any given moment, someone wearing jeans. It is an American invention, which took the universe by storm. Even the astronauts wear jeans somedays at the space station.

A good pair of jeans is normally blue; however, other colors have attempted to please some users. The idea was to create a strong piece of attire to withstand harsh conditions and as natural as possible, no danger or risks with chemicals. Denim, which is the base for any jeans, is 100% cotton fiber.

Originally made to last, jeans still support endless aging. In its 135-year history, it has been fashionable, has weathered its own erosion, seemed to have died and is still here, feeding an industry sewing billions of dollars around the world, ignoring geographical boundaries, political regimes, gender differences, age and religion.

Some studies done by fashion researchers show that the key piece of all wardrobes is jeans, and is the best-selling piece in the stores. Jeans complete any look, and is suitable to be worn anywhere. However, do you know what jeans is the best fit for your physical type? Are there any restriction?

For each body type, a different pair of jeans.

If you are a rather large person, your jeans should not tighten in the region of the belly. It is possible that your legs will get wider, but it is preferable to adjust them rather than squeeze your belly on the waistband – when this happens, you look bigger than you really are and the production is “zero” in terms of elegant outfit.

If you a shorter person in stature, any leftover fabric on the waistband or legs of your jeans makes you look even smaller. That’s because the volume of fabric especially on the legs shortens the distance between ankles and hook, making your legs look shorter. This will give the impression you have borrowed your brother’s pair of jeans!

When you have a solid built body, shorter legs and some excess on the lower part as well, you can still wear Jeans. Remember, this is a democratic piece of clothing! However, for a person with this body type the best jeans is the one without any details. A normal, basic, strait cut is the best bet!

For those with a very thin stature, no fat, no belly and long legs there is also a pair jeans waiting to be worn. You can pick one of the most modern design, the slim and skinny fit. It is a very contemporary version of adjustments to a much tighter leg, a smaller pocket design and not many features. Therefore, less fabric and less volume.

Are you the athletic type? Do you have large thighs, square abdomen and short broad shoulders for the sake of nature or for brave and continuous effort at the gym? Your jeans need to be flexible, with about 2% spandex in the formula, so that you get rid of that feeling of being trapped in your pants once and for all.

We can go on forever talking about different applications and different styles they have invented, transformed and updated that version of jeans. Options of colors, legs, even quality of fabric. They have created, mind you, a version called “destroyed”. This is nothing more than the real meaning. They actually destroy a good pair of Jeans to look fashionable.

However, no matter you preference, you can find all these option in one single place. Visit our website and pick the style, which suits you, the most. Our prices give you access to a broader choice and a chance to expand your collection! We are very affordable!

Meghan Markle has proven to the world that happy fairytale endings do exist. She recently married Prince Harry and became a newly appointed Princess. She stole our hearts on the sitcom “Suits” and now is stealing the hearts of the Royal family.

There is no denying the fact Meghan Markle is exquisitely stunning. No matter the weather or time of day, her hair looks perfectly blow-dried and skin looks radiant.

We might not have her genes but we can adopt some of her beauty techniques into our lifestyle to get her natural sparkle. Check out below to see some of Markle’s top foolproof beauty hints:

Only wear foundation when necessary

Markle avoids full-coverage from foundation , rather she uses a lightweight finish to allow her natural skin tone shine through. She only applies foundation to spots or blemishes that needs covering up. Markle loves her freckles and so do we, so she never hides them under concealer. Instead, she just applies a light wash of foundation over certain areas instead of her entire face.

Brighten those eyes

Markle’s eye sparkle like there is no tomorrow, even after a red-eye from New York to London. Her secret for capturing eight-hours of sleep in seconds is a flesh-toned highlighting pen that virtually erases any signs of fatigue such as – dark circles and fine lines. She just touches up the inner corners of her eyes, leaving them looking brighter and well rested.

Maximize your hair

Markle’s hair always looks A-mazing! She has a very simple trick that she uses daily to maximize her hair volume. The hair flip! Whenever her hair feels weighed down, she bends forward and sprays on texturizing spray or a touch of hair spray. This little flip gives her hair a little extra bonce. You just found the world’s easiest high-boosting trick.

Say goodbye to frizz

Who of us doesn’t constantly have to fight frizz and irritating fly-a-ways? Markle has an easy solution: Just spray a tiny bit of hairspray onto a smaller boar bristle brush (or even a toothbrush) and smooth away any hairs that are flying wild. She loves this technique for when she puts her hair up into a bun.

Give your face a workout

She swears her sculpted visage is due to daily facial exercises that help to sculpt your face from the inside out! She admits that she looks terribly silly performing them, but she notices a difference in her jawline and cheekbones.

Neutral lip

Meghan avoids darker colored lipsticks, because they don’t look natural and distract from her natural skin tone. Markel prefers to use natural colors that blend with her skin tone. If you want to get her look, it’s time to put your bright red lipsticks away and pull out more toned down colors. Plus, she loves her balm.

Quench your skin

Filming “Suits” during the cold, harsh, dry winters in Toronto really took a toll on her skin. In order to maintain her natural glow, she needed to moisturize her skin at least twice a day, sometimes more. Look for moisturizers that will quench and hydrate your skin, preferably in a serum that will be absorbed more quickly.

Block those rays

Even on cloudy days, Markle makes sure to apply a good quality SPF to her face, plus a lip-gloss with at least SPF 15. She recommends looking for sunscreen lotion and gloss that doesn’t only protect your skin but also hydrates your shin for a double-whammy.

Unblock those pores

Markle said she didn’t always have her facial glow; she had to learn about the importance of cleansing your skin before going to bed every night. She makes sure to cleanse her face daily, even if she wasn’t wearing make-up. Our pores can become clogged with pollutants, debris, etc. which can cause our skin look opaque and tired.
