Bold EyeShadow....


Style is eternal, its individual and personal. It reflects your ideas, thoughts and personality. If you can dare to be bold and different then try this bold eye shadow make up. They can go with any skin type which is the best  
part. The electric blue or reddish eye shadow can go with any skin tone. If you want to look unique or you feel your eyes are not so attractive, then this is just right for you. Here is the step by step guide to put this eye shadow....





1. Start by prepping the eye with an eye primer.  You may opt to use a cream shadow as a base, however, keep in mind that if your base has shimmer it will show through your eye 
shadow or you can you a white base.

2. Use a tapered shadow brush to pack color onto the center of the lip. Focusing on the center will give just the right pop without being overwhelming.  Do not sweep on the color; simply pat the color on to the lid softly.

3. Once the color is on the lid, use that same brush to diffuse it and eliminate the any harsh edges.

4. To give this eye makeup extra oomph, line the lower lash line using a small smudge brush. Finish by applying a coat of mascara to the top and bottom lashes.


For lower eyelid, you can use another complimenting color or the same color as well.  Turquoise, electric blue and peacock green are my personal favorite, I have cooler skin tone. But they go well with all skin tones. So, Girls, try this make up for a date night or a dinner..... Compliment it with nude or red lips.

Shoe Sight...

I don't think I need to mention what "Shoes" are for women. I still don't get why men really can't differentiate between pumps and sandals, they just count them as shoe. So, every time I buy a new pair of shoe, he tells me, you already own 28 pairs, which is more than your age, why can't you be contented! I fail to make him understand why I need them....though I never have guilty! I know that must be a very similar story for most of you. 
Peter Som Boots

The  most important thing is that shoes must be chosen cleverly, my shoes last a two-three, so, each and every piece I choose has to be perfect, versatile and comfortable. If you are not tall, there is nothing wrong if you want to wear heels, if you can't carry those high heels, wear platforms, usually platforms are1-1.5 inches and 4-5 inch heels, so, do the math. If a shoe has 4 inches of heel and has 1.5 inches of platform , you are actually wearing 2.5 inches heels, which is easier to carry on as well.


A few tips when taking care of your shoes:1).rotate the shoes–never wear the same pair two days in a row, and if possible, run a “full cycle” of seasonally appropriate shoes before going back to wear a pair.
2). never leave your shoes close to a vent or a source of heat/dry air–heat and dry air are the enemy of leather; 3).store your shoes in a closed space, to avoid dust and protect them.

Bridal Couture 2011

VERA WANG
For revolutionizing wedding gowns.
There is no woman who has had a greater impact on modern American weddings than Vera Wang. Her gowns are the most referenced, the most researched by brides, and the most inspirational each and every season. If Vera does it, the style is sure to be a hit. Her wedding gowns are among the most trendsetting in the bridal industry.

AMSALE ABERRA
For her forever modern style.
The style of an Amsale gown is described as "Forever Modern", by which the designer means that she works with traditional wedding dress features, but with an eye to creating modern classics. Amsale's gowns are updated and sophisticated with clean lines. One of her most famous designs is a simple white silk strapless wedding gown with a blue sash. The style, though simple, was revolutionary, and it became a smash hit that has been imitated by countless bridal gown designers since.

MONIQUE LHUILLIER
Her gowns rock the red carpets and the church aisles!
Monique Lhuillier's gowns are best known for her ability to blend classic bride materials, especially lace, with fashion forward styles. Her iconic looks walk the line between sexy and bridal, which has made them a hit with celebrities (she also now designs red carpet gowns in addition to the bridal collection). Some of the famous brides to wear a Monique Lhuillier gown include Britney Spears, Al Gore's daughter Sarah, and Heidi Montag.

REEM ACRA
For her bridal gowns that are fit for loyalty.
She is known for her remarkable metallic embroidery and intricate beadwork in Swarovski crystals and seed pearls. A Reem Acra wedding gown is formal, glamorous, and sophisticated, with a signature style that invokes royalty. Indeed, royal brides have chosen Acra's European inspired styles for their wedding days.






CAROLINA HERRERA
For successfully dressing brides, debutantes and celebrities for 20 years.
The signature of Carolina Herrera's designs has always been the balance between intricacy and simplicity. Her bridal gowns are renowned for their exquisite details and careful craftsmanship. Herrera also draws from vintage inspiration, such as the 1950s strapless silhouettes, as well as from artists, nature, and other points of interest. A Carolina Herrera wedding gown typically has a timeless style coupled with a special fabric featuring lace, embroidery, or unique draping.

OSCAR DE LA RENTA
For wedding gowns that epitomize luxury!
Oscar de la Renta's bridal gowns are defined by their couture craftsmanship, femininity, charm, and attention to detail. He is the epitome of luxury and elegance in bridal fashion. Not unlike Carolina Herrera, Oscar de la Renta wedding gowns are often strapless with classic silhouettes. He makes great use of embroidered organzas and laces, as well as flounces and ruffles with a touch of Latin flair. Former President Bush's daughter Jenna was one of the best known brides to wear an Oscar de la Renta gown for her wedding. The fairly simple lace gown, while beautiful, was actually a bit more informal than a signature de la Renta wedding dress.
