The weather may be getting colder, but the fall beauty trends are sizzling hot. As I mentioned before, London Fashion Week 2009 runways were awash with shades of grey. So where are we supposed to get our edginess this season?
The Pixie Haircut
Short haircuts are usually synonymous with breezy, summer days. And they also served a practical purpose as well since, historically, long heavy frocks were shed during the warmer seasons. But celebrities such as Victoria Beckham and Rihanna were showing edgy new dos that prove that short hair is back in!
Matte Nail Polish
It’s such a strange concept, but matte nail polish is definitely in this fall as the must have beauty item. Matte nail polish is exactly as it sounds—nail polish color without the quintessential glossy sheen. The result is a deeper, richer color with a velvety finish. Some great shades for this fall are matte black nail polish, matte indigo nail polish and matte grey nail polish. The OPI matte nail polish collection features a wide range of autumn appropriate colors with fun names like Russian Navy and You Don’t Know Jacques.
Golden Eyes
An easy way to add a pop of color to your otherwise drab fall attire is to lightly swipe your lids with a sparkly, metallic eyeshadow. We’ve been seeing a lot of neutral and grey lids, but color lovers will never be satisfied with a monotone palette. Try a gold eyeshadow like the Estee Lauder Signature Eyeshadow Quad in Gold, Nars Duo Cream Eyeshadow in sheer platinum and sheer gold or Cargo’s Mediterranean Nights Palette. Make your eyes pop this fall!

1. Never wear a trend that is already out in all the department stores---BE THE FIRST
ReplyDelete2. Know what looks best on you and stick to it---try the book by the British "what not to wear" girls that bases clothes on body type
3. Dont look at size tags, try on a variety of sizes at different stores to find what looks best, not the smallest number
1.Dress classy, that will flatter your good points and hide the rest.
ReplyDelete2.a golden smile is the best accesory you could ever have.
3.Take care of yourself, eat right, drink water, excersize "Nutrition is a gift from god, Krispy Creme, is a gluttony of man" If you know what I mean.
