Some snazzy Silver makeup ideas that I found for some inspiration for the holidays....I am so inspired.  I gotta try one and post it for you guys :).   Silver is a lovely compliment for the smowy weather, and so fun!  The holidays has me so excited for some exciting makeup looks for gatherings.

 These would also be fabulous looks for weddings, or bridal!

Indian makeup magic :)

Yes i still love purple ;)

  

So fun...I like its a little subtler.

Nice one, i like this type for going out anywhere really, I will say that maybe apply mascara last as when using sparkly shadows I always find it gets stuck in my mascara and looses the effect.

Very pretty and traditional...for a dulhan (bride)

I love Indian makeup and style...feminine and lovley, I am totally adicted to my kajal (khol) liner :)

so thought I'd share some lovelyness :)

30 for 30 days Hair challenge

Soo I have seen lots of posts and articles about 30 for 30 wardrobe challenges and I have been trying more protective styles for my delicate curls during the winter months in an effort to grow them out (my hair grows tragically slow!) and have been thinking about posting a series about it and then my fabulous sister gave me the 30 for 30 idea!  Yeah I know she is brilliant :).  So here it is the first "do " in the series
Almost all of these are styles that wont need heat to achieve to prevent damage while looking FABULOUS!

 So I just kinda twist - the same like you would french braid but way faster - the front of my hair in small sections and secure them with mini clips you can use bobby pins or anything you choose that is your style.  I love how easy it is for a busy mom ( i can fit it in after my 2 minute shower LOL) and it looks good and fun all day and stays put even without product...all i use is leave in conditioner for this one.  It also gives a fun kinky texture the next day when you take out the twirls!  You can make a high hair do then :)

You can also put elastics in and wear it for a few days!

You can get fancy with it too,  I love this updo! 










Hope you like, another one to come tomorrow :)!

Beautiful new fashion trends

Sooo...in my new years sewing frenzy and excitement for the springs new trends i have been searching the new trends and upcoming styles and there are some delightful suits out now....or up and coming!  Seriously with all these lovely things how do you choose? :) Here are some of my favorites!

 Are'nt they lovely!  So inspiring...Isn't fashion wonderful, there is so much personality and whimsy, and what makes a person them selves in how we wear the garments, what we accessories with or if we use accessories at all, which shoes, how wee carry ourselves even effects our style...a dress can look different on different women.  Just because of who you are.  Style is a wonderful expression of our personalities, of where we came from and really where we want to go.  Fashion is like painting or drawing a new picture of our feelings everyday, for the many viewer we come in contact with to interpret how we see ourselves...and how fun is that!

Braided Beauty

 I am really loving the braids that seem to popping up everywhere for the last few seasons.  I wish I was better at getting the short fuzzy curly hair at my hairline to stay in nicely so i could wear them more often, but i really need to work on my skills. LOL.  SO here are a few of my favorite looks and inspiration of late.  One of my cousins always seems to have her braided nicely in many different styles, I might need to do some more practicing my technique.  Anybody have any tips for getting more polished smooth looking braided do's??  I have always liked these "around the hairline" braids but i think you need a friend to do them properly. :)
