Beauty and Fashion

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.

Bridal designers have taken a sexier turn in the last few years and we are in love. They have redesigned the conventional wedding dress, by adding stunning, sheer details, plunging necklines and body hugging designs that leave little to the imagination.

But even if your dream-wedding gown isn’t a sultry silhouette, you probably are still a little unsure about what you should be wearing under your dress. So we know you’re wondering which brands of shapewear are the best for bridal dresses or for going to a wedding? and trust us your panties and bra just won’t cut it.

Thankfully, we are here to help. Even if your dress is made from clingy fabrics or a simple strapless neckline, we have all of the answers you need to know about what type of shapewear under the dress.

Shapewear Solutions for Any Style of Dress

If your dress has a plunging neckline
Look for a bodysuit that has a deep neckline that can accommodate the plunge and keep everything in place. Often the body suit will provide a little extra support on the side to avoid slippage while your dance or move about.

If your dress in clingy and body-hugging
Often this type of dress clings to your tummy, so you will need some of the best body shapers available on the market – the high waisted panty or brief.

This style doesn’t only smooth and tuck in your tummy but it helps your dress to sit flatter and smoother on your body. Look for styles that are either briefs or shorts with a thong bottom for seamless style.

If your dress has a traditional strapless neckline
A typical strapless bra with grips on the inside can provide a solution, but it might slide up or downward, making for an awkward photo session. A better option is a long-line bra, which is a bra attached to a corset bodice that wraps around your waist.

If your dress tightly fits around your upper body
Your best arsenal against this is a full body shaper such as a bodice slip with a built-in bra or a thigh-high bodysuit that will smooth out your muffin top, back bulge and any other troublesome areas. Make sure you find a style that isn’t too constricting so you can actually dance at your wedding.

If your dress fits snugly around your hips and thighs
This type of dress sometimes reveals more than we desire, such as certain wobbly bits that will ruin our look. Look for shapewear that hits just above the knees with a high waist. This will give you a streamlined silhouette and ban that muffin top.

If your dress has an open back
The best choice when it comes to wearing a backless gown is either adhesive cups and, if you have a bigger cup size, make sure to check out different options in plus size shapewear such as the backless bodysuit, as adhesive cups might not give you the support you need to keep your girls in place.

Everything Else You Need to Know About Bridal Shapewear

Here are some commonly asked questions regarding choosing the best bridal body shaper for women, but nobody dares to ask.

What color should your undergarments be?
Whether you are wearing a strapless or backless wedding gown, you will need to choose a bra that is the same color as your dress and not your skin tone. Just in case your dress slips and shows your bra, nobody will notice.

Should you break in your bridal bra and undergarments?
Yes, you will want to take your body shaper and bra for a test drive before your big day, this way you can make sure it fits comfortably and doesn’t slide.

Should you buy a dress with built-in body wear or bras?
When you purchase your dress the tailor will pressure you to get all of your undergarments built-in the dress, but this is never a good idea. A body shaper should support your body and not the dress for a streamlined style.

When should you buy your bridal shapewear for women?
Once you have said yes to the dress, then you should start investigating what type of shapewear you will need to wear under the dress. When you go for your first fitting, be sure to take your newly purchased undergarments with you to see how they look and feel under dress.

Do you want to celebrate your beautiful curves but are unsure about your plus size shapewear options? Maybe you have tried experimenting with it in the past but don’t know which styles will work with which outfits.

I have been playing with shapewear for a while now and I have come to the conclusion that not all styles are designed for the plus size woman. Along the way, I have learned a few tricks that you need to know.

But before we get into the nitty gritty about which shapewear styles to buy, here are a few tips to consider when purchasing body wear.

Top Secret Tips and Hints for Purchasing Shapewear

Control

Understand beforehand the amount of control or compression you want. There are three basic levels of control: light, medium and firm. Here is the breakdown of the different levels:

• Light: Gives you lightweight support, its not too tight but can smooth out bra and panty lines.
• Medium: Provides more clinching and compression power to hold in that tummy bulge and your lumps and bumps. Plus it smoothes out any panty lines, etc.
• Firm: A tighter, firmer fit with reinforced panels to give you an instant tummy tuck or any other problem areas. Contours your body and can be worn for no more than 8 hours.

Size

One of the biggest rookie mistakes most women make is by buying the wrong size shapewear. Every brand has their own sizing charts, so don’t assume you are a certain size. Believe me when I say that a smaller size will not make you look smaller, it will only squeeze you in ways that you only imagined to be impossible. Plus you will be extremely uncomfortable.

Zone

There are so many types of shapewear out there that it is easy to get distracted and buy the wrong piece for your needs. If you need to look good in a pencil skirt then a push-up bra won’t help.
Different types of shapewear

Recently, it seems they keep coming out with a new style or type of plus size shapewear each week. There is no need to run out and buy every style, you really need a few basics items and you are ready to go!

Full body slip

The name basically explains it all – full body coverage with bra straps, some styles include a built-in bra. They come in a number of different lengths the most popular being mid-thigh or just above your knee.

Layering tank or camisole

We LOVE this piece because it magically erases any bra lines and that back bulge. It also gives you a quick nip tuck around your waistline and keeps your tummy under-control. Great for when you are wearing a fitted top or even wear it as an outer piece with a blazer.

High-waisted panty or brief

Once you try these undies on, you will never go back to your old underwear. Providing compression from just under your bra line to your thighs. Looks great under almost any type of outfit from a fitted skirt, pant to a bodycon dress.

The waist cincher

Looking for optimum control that will give you an hourglass figure? A waist cincher will help you drop up to 3 dress sizes instantly. Due to the compression, it is hard to wear for longer periods. Plus, it can be noticeable under tighter fitting outfits, so best worn under lose clothing.

Whether you are a beauty junkie or not, there are a lot of tricks that will make your make-up process significantly easier. With small changes and adjustments to your routine you will save time and get even more spectacular results than you are used to. You won’t need to buy any new products, as you almost certainly have everything you need at home.

Here are the five make-up hacks every woman should know about:

A deep look

For a more intense line, bring the flame of a lighter closer to your eye pencil. The difference will surprise you.

Perfect Eyeliner

Use a spoon to mark a cat-eye pattern. With the handle follow the line of the corner of your eyes, then turn it over and create a perfect curve.

A bit cuter

If you’re having trouble creating a perfect smoke, then with a creamy shade draw a little star on the outer corner of your eyelid. Blend perfectly with a brush. You’ll see how easy it is!

Hot tabs

If your curling iron is metal, then use your dryer to heat it. Make sure you measure the temperature well and avoid accidents. Press on your eyelashes for 30 seconds for a long-lasting effect.

DIY gloss

If you’re out of gloss, don’t worry, you can create one yourself using a little shade mixed with Vaseline. This last ingredient is also very effective for moisturizing the lips.
