Over-Accessorize



did salma hayek over-accessorize her lilac look?




Remember how easy it is to over-accessorize your look? The balance between wearing a killer bib necklace and weighing down your neck with one too many strands can be difficult to find. One beautiful necklace can go along way, especially if you plan on wearing a veil and earrings and a huge grin all day long. But if you must over-accessorize, don't do it in front of the camera. Save your strands of beads and baubles for a night out on the town when the only red carpet you'll be photographed on is the one in your head. Salma Hayek got it almost right when she paired this pretty purple Bottega Veneta piece with both a long and short necklace for the 2009 Alma Awards this past weekend. It was styled the exact same way when it came down the runway for Fall 2009. But on Salma, something just seems different. Do you agree?

Mina Butterfly Belt

Butterfly Belt
Butterfly Belt
We all have a little black dress we love that fits perfectly and flatters in all the right places, but sometimes you just need to wear something a little bit different. So instead of going out and spending a fortune on a new dress, spend a fortune on a belt instead!
The Mina Butterfly Belt is £45, but could possibly turn out to be one of the most versatile accessories in your wardrobe. It has a wide elasticated band which gives a really flattering look to the waistline and has an almost corset effect. It’s also available in red.

Team with a gorgeous sleeveless, v-neck little black dress like this one from Oasis for a glamorous look similar to Jenny Faulkner on the Lotto show last night, and because the belt has gold and silver colouring you can choose which to accessorise with, although personally I’d go with gold.

It would also look fab worn with skinny jeans, roll neck jumper and boots for the winter or 50’s style blouse, cropped trousers or capri pants and flat ballet pumps for the summer

Over Accessorizing Wedding



I finally got around to watching the final episode of The Hills and caught up with all the Heidi and Spencer wedding gossip for myself. The best part of the episode was, of course, the gown. Heidi wore a lightweight, strapless, feathery gown custom designed by Monique Lhuillier. was given only three and a half weeks to make the dress, which required 250 hours of work. And as if all those layers and details weren't enough, Heidi topped it all off with ivory LhuillierChristian Louboutin Bow T Dorcet heels and over $2 million in borrowed platinum and diamonds from Neil Lane jewellery. Do you think she over did it?

Heidi told Neil Lane she was going for an Elizabeth Taylor look and loaded up her wrists with diamond bracelets totaling of approximately 350 karats in diamonds. Thankfully she decided against a tiara because she thought it would be "too much." Meanwhile, Sandra Bullock also piled on the bling at The Proposal premiere in LA. The star wore a mix of "chains, pearls, charms, and underwater influences" that drew almost as much attention as her Glamour cover shoot. In fact, her bubbling assortment reminds me of the bridal lariat worn featured in yesterday's real wedding. Any of these options, neck or wrist, make for a fun wedding day look. Check out my Style page for how to multi-layer your look without overdoing it.

Lipstick Colors




light pink is an option for the hot weather, while plums or dark shades complete your look in the winter.Lips for daytime are often seen in red lipsticks in winter.

In spring season pink, light green, lots of white and off-white, mimicking spring flowers. Lipsticks are usually paler too, in pinks and corals, often in translucent glosses.


People with fair complexions can use brown shades or some glowing peachy shades. Remember dont use orange red or shocking pink.

The shades of this lipstick are vibrant and the glide. the speciality of Josie Maran Cosmetics is that they are made from organic ingredients. Even the packaging is recyclable.

Wedding Gifts

http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.co.uk/time-zone/europe/uk/website/personal-services/weddings/images/wedding-presents.jpg
Making a list for the various ceremonies of the wedding is the toughest task, the articles discusses the issue and what can be the possible solutions for the same  Wedding is an occasion, which is remembered and discussed for long, not only by the family members, but the friends and relatives also. The moments spent in the wedding of a closed relative is cherished for life time. Those are the moments, which get stored in the mind album of a human being, for a time limitation, which has no end, i.e. forever. Moreover Indian marriages are filled with great joyous and fun- filled moments, as a part of the rituals and customs practised in the marriage. There are also many games played in the Indian marriages, which adds to the flavour of enjoyment and fun, and makes the memories of the wedding long- lived.


The most important and tiresome decision at the time of wedding, is preparing a guest list for the various functions of the wedding. There are various occasions and rituals celebrated in the Indian marriages, in which a huge amount of money is spent. Therefore, sometimes, there is a limitation in terms of the guests to be invited for different ceremonies or functions at the wedding. There comes the most tough decision, whom to invite and to whom to not. Most of the relatives and friends are important and one can hardly count the number of friends or relatives, which are not worth inviting. In such cases, bride or the groom generally cut short the list of friends, because, relatives are the ones, which will keep on back- biting the family, if they are not invited to any of the marriage ceremonies. In lieu of ceremonial function, bride or groom, generally organise a short party for the friends, so that not to upset them and share the happiness with them also.

The guest list for the big day, that is the marriage day, depends on the venue and the strength of people it can withhold in itself. One can hardly sacrifice on the number of invitees for the wedding day, because it is the happiness, which the bride and groom, wants to share with their entire social circle. Therefore the guest list for the wedding day is the longest, but one should try and squeeze the list, keeping in mind the monetary aspect of the marriage, which goes directly on the shoulders of the bride’s family. Or, if the groom’s family doesn’t want to sacrifice on the number of their guests for the wedding, then the best solution is to divide the expenses foe the wedding day. This would lessen the burden on the bride’s family and would give an equal opportunity to both the families to invite as many guests as possible.

One more issue, which families generally come across during the wedding preparations, is the return gifts or mostly called as shagun to be given to the relatives. People generally give sweet boxes to the close friends and relatives present in the marriage, but with few close relatives, one needs to extend their budget. Also, in case of the inter- family gifts of the bride and the groom, the bride’s family is supposed to gift the close relatives of the bride with jewellery or clothes. The worth of the gift depends on the closeness the person has in terms of their relation with the groom’s family. There are many ceremonies, in which these gifts are given to the relatives of the groom, one of them is milni in Punjabi families, where the male members of the groom’s family are greeted with gifts from the males of the bride’s side. These gifts are given as a token of respect and happiness.

Fashion and Accessories

Fashion and Accessories 
Fashion is a means of self-expression. It is commonly used to describe a style of clothing, something that we deal with everyday. The clothes we wear help us to identify ourselves with a group of others like a lifestyle, a profession, a religion, or an attitude. One thing that is constant about fashion is change. A new season brings new changes, new styles. At times the old styles become fashionable and the present style becomes outdated and there is a continued rotation.

When we talk about fashion, it covers not only clothing but also shoes, bags, body art, hair products, jewelry, beauty products and other accessories. Fashion and accessories go hand in hand. When we talk about fashion accessories, we usually think about jewelry. But accessories cover a whole lot more than that. Fashion accessories help in highlighting the apparel that you wear and meant to change your entire look.

Accessories can transform you from a simple girl to glamorous babe just by using few items. These items can complement the whole outfit. They are used both by men and women to add detail and some style to their outfit. From shoes to handbags to beaded jewelry to belts to shawls and scarves to sunglasses, accessories catch the eye and make your clothes and you more attractive and appealing. Fashion accessories today form the base of any fashion store or department. This industry is growing everyday. New products are coming into the market and youngsters are willing to experiment with the latest styles.

Fashion accessories besides adding a splash of class, color and style to an outfit and look, also have practical functionality. For instance, handbags are used for carrying small utility items, hats protect the face and head from harsh weather conditions, gloves keep the hands warm, footwear protects the feet and so on. Fashionable clothing and fashion accessories constitute today's fashion trends and provide an opportunity to express one's individual identity.
