If you are wondering how to properly wear a dangle earrings, you can use these jewelry tips to select the perfect pair of dangle earrings for every style of dress in your wardrobe.

Tips In Wearing Dangle Earrings:

• Short dresses: Short dresses are perfect for warm spring Saturdays, and they can also be paired with colorful tights when you need something to wear to the office. Accessorizing short dresses can be a challenge because you don’t want to add too much bulk in one place. When selecting jewelry to wear with shorter dresses, look for one statement piece and keep other jewelry to a minimum. A nice pair of dangle earrings will do the trick. Slender gemstone teardrop earrings are ideal. Choose a pair in a color to match your dress, tights or shoes. Chain earrings are also fun. Chain-style drop earrings will add just a bit of sparkle to the outfit and have a slimming effect on your face and neck
• Long dresses: Long dresses are very fashionable at the moment because they are easy to wear and they are comfortable. When wearing a long dress, feel free to accessorize more heavily than you would when wearing a short dress. Elaborate dangle earrings are fabulous with long smocked dresses and empire-waist beach gowns. Colorful chandelier earrings will complement bright dresses with dramatic lengths.
• Modern dresses: Modern dresses are sleek and cool, and most are available in neutral hues, such as black, white, grey and beige. Fashion-forward dresses can benefit from colorful accessories. Vibrant dangle earrings will go a long way in personalizing a modern dress. Look for red coral cluster earrings, multicolored glass earrings and hot pink beaded earrings.

Trumpet Skirts As Your New Go-To Fashion Item

As a girl, wearing skirts is just one thing that I can’t get enough of. But the thing is, wearing skirt can be too tiresome and boring at times. Which is why I decided to try out wearing trumpet skirts.

The trumpet skirt, also known as the mermaid skirt, frill skirt, or ruffled skirt, has taken on a sleeker form dating these modern times. Coming back from its immense popularity during the Mean Girls era, what was once a skirt silhouette filled with aggressive ruffles and lengths (which seemed to get shorter and shorter in length by the week) has now been reborn with more sophistication.

Stylishly feminine both in fit and style, the trumpet skirt is continuously evolving to fit the modern trends of today’s girls. Trumpet skirt is a sister to drop waist dresses and also closely resembles its roots which is the skater skirt. Still, trumpet skirts do possess their own character – the upper portion is fitted while the lower seam flares out from the body. Because the top portion of the skirt hugs your curves, you need to be comfortable with your shape and your derriere. Stand straight, walk with good posture in order to give your rear its best look.

If you want to create an illusion of long legs, opt for midi trumpet skirts to partner with a cute top, tuck in. To wear it to formal affairs, go for a simple clean top such as a solid colored silk or a collared button-down shirt. Adding a matching blazer will create a very elegant, polish tandem.

For transitional days, early fall or late spring, play up your femininity with gorgeous trumpet skirts and knitted pullover topped with ankle boots or pumps (worn with socks). Remember that if your skirt is mini, you have to tuck your top. But if you feel like wearing it untuck and a little loose, make sure that your skirt is a midi and your top hits around the first hip.

Trumpet skirts might be tricky to wear, but I assure you that mastering their quirks is worth it! They give you a different view on skirts and a different angle to look at when you want to wear skirts but don’t want to look the same as everybody else.

Still on the hunt for a nice trumpet skirt to get your “skirt journey” started? Here is a nice and stylish layered trumpet skirt from Bubble and Chic to get you started with!

 

Tips On How To Wear A Midi Skirt If You Are Petite

In case you don’t know, the midi skirt was a popular skirt length way backin the 1940s.
But because women were feeling suppressed and limited by the choices available to them during the early days, women started showing off their legs in mini skirts, making the midi skirt obsolete.

The “midi” is a three quarter length skirt, falling halfway between your knee and ankle. Shapes of midi skirts might vary – pencil, A-line, or circular, etc – but they are always described and characterized by the length. Girls try to avoid wearing it because the classic midis have a pesky habit of doing NIL for your shape and figure, and it can even make you look smaller than your actual height. But should it always be the case?

I say NO!

Tips For Wearing Midi Skirts

Just like what I said earlier, women know from experience that most midi skirts or even dresses can make them appear shorter and stout — two things girls like me absolutely hate! But what if we told you that if you wore it right it is possible to rock a midi skirt?

Yes it is entirely possible to wear a midi even if you are petite. The key is to wear it fully knowing about the do’s and don’ts of wearing a midi skirt,

Do’s of styling a midi skirt for petite

• First thing that you have to consider is to take your waist higher. Opting to wear a high waist midi is a great way to take your waist higher, making you look taller than you normally are!
• Tuck in! When you tuck in your blouse or button down shirt, it will look cohesive, especially if you are wearing it with a high waist midi. If you are conservative, this is a great technique too as it will only show off a bit of your skin.
• A midi skirt in nude color is a great way to make your legs look “longer” than usual, so opt for beige or colors that closely resembles your skin.
• A monotone color matching your outfit from head-to-toe look while wearing your midi skirt is also a simple yet effective technique to not only look uniform but ultimately lengthen you body. I can’t suppress this idea because it really works!

Even if you are petite, there are many ways that you can employ in wearing a midi skirt that will allow you to look taller, even if you are petite? Want to give midi a try? Then head over to 11AM and check out this front zip midi skirt to get things started for you!

Hacking Your Hair With Hairline Shadows

Contrary to popular belief, women love to save money and become thrifty too! And what better way to do that than to learn about some useful creative beauty hacks that can help us save some dollars on the side while looking pretty. In the world of makeup, there are tons of time-and-money-saving methods to re-use and repurpose  beauty products in order to create a new niche for them. One of the best feelings in the world, at least for me, is to know that I have a secret makeup hack ready to be used when needed, and today I am going to share with you one of them.

Wait,  you are thinking that I am not going to share anything useful, right?. “A makeup artist giving out hair hacks?” Yes, it’s true. And this one is borrowed from the basicidea that facial hair can be thickened with the use of makeup and shadows — we just repurposed it even further!

“When doing a tight pony tail or up-do, use a matte eye shadow that matches your hair color to shade the skin lightly to create the perfect hairline or to fill in any tight areas in the hair to make it appear fuller”

Yes, you heard it right. That is basically it. You can use a shadow, or specifically a hair line shadow, to make your hair look fuller and thicker! Now, you don’t have to wish that your hair could grow in a day anymore whenever you have an important even coming! Just get that ever-trustworthy hairline shadow and you can start working your way to full hair again!

If you want to give this hair-hack a go without shelling out a large amount of money for thickening up your hair, all you need is a makeup brush for blending and a matte shadow that matches your natural hair color. However, you have to stay within the frame of your hairline and you’ve got to tread lightly. Staying within the frame and constraints of your hairline makes the look and the blend look even more natural. Staying away from any section where you don’t have hair to blend into is essential if you don’t want this hair hack to look unnatural and fake.

Now that you know how to do this hack, it’s time to put it into action. You can start by checking out this 3CE Hairliner Shadow from Style Nanda

Flattering Sheath Dress For Me!

If there is a style of dress that I would certainly not get tired of wearing, the sheath dress is definitely on top of my list! A classic dress that was made to fit the body and hoursglass shape of a woman, the sheath dress can be flattering and practical to wear for women of all ages. Truthfully, if I were asked to recommend a piece of clothing to a family or a friend, I will say that one of the most versatile clothing that every woman should have is a sheath dress. They would definitely be on top of my list because the versatility of these sheath dresses are unmatched!

Sheath style dresses are known for their hourglass shape and they fit with average chest and hip, more narrow waist.  What makes the sheath dress a classic is that it is not only flattering but it is also versatile. Whatever the season or the look that you are going for on a particular day, you can easily accessorize it and pair it with a belt or scarf. For a layered look, a cardigan, jacket or a sweater will also work very well!

Sheath style dress in varying fabrics – from wool, acetate and polyester and cotton blends, are the most common  materials in sheath dresses today. Cotton and silk jersey blends, which are a bit lighter and more flexible in fit due to allowable stretch, are also popular textile blends used for a sheath dress.  When it comes to colors, a sheath dress can be found in classic and solid colors like black, red or blue; light or bright colors like pink or hot pink; or in a variety of prints like floral, polka dots, stripes or geometric patterns. Although solid colors are always a hit, dark colors are much more flattering compared to lighter ones when you want to hide some imperfections and look thinner than usual. At the end of the day, going for patterns or going for a solid color is your decision.

I really love this classic style of dress and believe it is an absolute must-have for every woman’s wardrobe!  I personally recommend that every woman purchase at least one sheath dress too! If you want to purchase a sheath dress, check out this vintage floral sheath dress from Bubble and Co

How To Wear Knit Sweaters And Cardigans?

When weather starts to get cold and the temperature starts to drop, layering starts to become more and more important. Layering helps me not only to withstand the cold weather, but also to look good and fashionable while protecting myself. And when it comes to layering while looking good, I feel like there is nothing more fun and fashionable to use than cardigan and knit sweaters.

Unlike most woven fabrics, knit cardigans and sweaters are able to stretch to a certain degree. With this flexibility at hand, knit sweaters are definitely much more comfortable to wear than your normal garment. Also, this flexibility is just the perfect solution for layering because the garment can stretch to accommodate the extra piece of clothing. In short, knit cardigans and sweaters drape well with any body type.

Aside from being thoroughly comfortable and flexible, tend not to wrinkle. As they are very versatile pieces, I assure you that they will work really well for consumers who are looking for a versatile piece to add to their closet clothing collection. While their chunkier cousins are limited to winter, knit cardigans and sweaters are definitely suitable all year-round. Since they aren’t too heavy, they can easily substitute jackets and can be worn in a lot of ways.

When shopping for an knit sweater or cardigan, what looks good on one woman may be unflattering on another. Because of this, you have to know what type of style would fit your body type. For example, women with an hourglass figure should select a light-weight and fitted sweater that would showcase the waist. Pear-shaped women, on the other hand, look awesome in sweaters that end around their waist.

Apple-shaped women, in my opinion, should try to stay with fabrics that are lighter, with eye-catching necklines to make them look thinner. Longer sweaters with a V-neck, boat neck, or sweetheart neckline work well for this body type. On the contrary, thin women, in reverse, can wear a bulkier sweater accented with a to add the illusion of curves. This strategy also works well for women with a rectangular-shaped body and turtleneck knit sweaters are suitable for both apple shaped and thin body type women.

Pencil Vs Liquid Eyeliner – Which One Is Better?

Ah, from pencil to liquid to gel, what is the best eyeliner for you to choose? Because there are various kinds of eyeliner to choose from, all with different features that they offer, it can be kinda hard to not “buy all at once” just to cover your grounds. A lot of the features such as the darkness intended, the ability to create distinct lines, the smoky-ness of the look and even the desired final tone and appearance are all factors you should consider when trying to purchase the perfect eyeliner. Of course, ease of use and the time allotted for the application of the liner should also play a part in choosing the perfect one. See, I told you choosing the perfect eyeliner is really difficult!

Brief History of The Eyeliner

Initially worn by the Ancient Egyptians, the first eyeliner was worn by people not only for appearance but also for protection against the sun for the eyes and surrounding area. From then on, modern eyeliners has developed even more — and the result is that we now have different forms, colors, materials, hues and styles to choose from. Because eyeliner can create a plethora of different effects such as the natural eye, the smokey eye, and the winged eye, they are really beloved by women all around the globe.

Liquid Vs Pencil Eyeliner – Which One Is Best?

To tell you the truth, there are several positive and negative characteristics of each eyeliner. The pencil liner, for me, is simpler to use and apply. Because of this, I really feel that the pencil eyeliner is perfect for creating a subtle look. The pencil liner is very limited when it comes to the design and the thickness that it can provide though. This is where the liquid liner takes my vote.

Liquid liners are perfect for precision application because it can easily create a sharp finish which gives the eye superb definition. They are not as long-lasting as the pencil liners though, which will be a problem if you need to wear the liner for a long period of time. The remedy, of course, is reapplication. But it will take time and cost you more to go this route, so choosing one really depends on your budget and needs.

As long as you purchase a quality pencil or liquid liner, I think the choice on what to purchase can easily be answered by your needs. If you are looking for a nice, quality pencil liner, check this sharp yet subtle pencil eyeliner from Club Clio today 🙂

Carry Things Fashionably With Backpacks

Carrying a lot of things doesn’t seem like a nice proposition, especially if you want to look as cool and fashionable as you possibly can. Not that I am saying that you can’t look good while carrying your things, as there are clutch bags and hand bags that can really make you look like a Hollywood celebrity.

However, clutch bags and hand bags are sometimes too small to carry the stuff that we need to have around. And when this occurs, there is no other place that we can run to other than the old and reliable back pack bag that we used to love — until it became “not too fashionable” or too “old school” for our own taste, right?

Good thing is, the “old and reliable, “old school” and “not too fashionable” back pack has also evolved to go on with the changing times. Where the once “old” backpack used to be bulky, too childish in design and not too flattering, the modern back pack bag has become a lot more alluring, stylish, chic and functional. Unlike its older counterparts, the modern backpack has also evolved to fit the changing times. Because of the growing needs of modern people, the modern back pack has also upped its ante.

Where people once used back pack only for functional, “carry the things” purpose, people today are much more demanding. Not only do we want a back pack that can help us carry our things from one place to another, but ultimately we also want to carry a back pack that looks good on our outfit. And of course, let us not forget that comfort is also a big reason why we choose the things that we wear, and the backpack is definitely one that should provide us with ample support and comfort too. Padded and light weight backpack bags that won’t hurt us while we carry them around is as important as carrying one that looks good and fashionable.

Truly, the demands for a fashionable yet functional piece of utility item such as a back pack is there, but not every back pack can meet expectations. Good thing for me, I found the right mix of comfort and fashionable looks with these beautiful back packs from Bullang. I was never really a fan of big back packs, but these nice bags from Bullang made me buy some too! Check out the nice colors and the crafty materials that was used on these bags, I swear that they are really comfortable!

 

Matte Or Glossy? Which One Suits Casual Wear Better?

I’ve been meaning to ask this question for quite a while now, but honestly, I can’t decide which is best — a matte lipstick or a shimmer / glossy lipstick? I have seen my fair share of both items, and I still can’t decide which one to go for until now. There are days when I feel like wearing matte helps me look more “casual” and outgoing, while the glossy and shimmer lipstick gives mo more of a “classy” and “dressy” kind of look. Although which one looks best might be entirely subjective, I feel like both matte and glossy lipstick have their own strengths and weaknesses, as well as different niches and needs to fill.

Admit it or not, us girls NEED lipstick in our lives, especially if we want to make our face become much more vibrant and noticeable in a sea of people. Wearing a lipstick, at least for me, gives me a much-needed confidence booster especially when I feel like I am having a bad day. A whip of this wonderful beauty accessory on our mouth can transform us from being “too tired to get out from the bed” look to a much more pleasant “where is the party, I need to be there” kind of persona.

The dilemma though, at least for me, is to know which one works best for me. And to be able to do this, I need to find out when a matte or a glossy lipstick looks good versus when it doesn’t.

As I have experience wearing both matte and glossy lipstick, I will stick to my earlier post that matte looks better when worn casually, and glossy looks better when worn in evening parties and dinners. As much as I want to wear glossy when I am going out to do some groceries, the look and the feel of glossy lipsticks in such a place doesn’t look right, and matte seems to be a better fit overall for me. I don’t know, but i always seem to end up messing my lips up when i apply a glossy lipstick. Although I do have a soft spot in my heart for a glossy lipstick, sometimes, it is the more subtle matte lipstick that is easier to wear. It gives me the confidence that I need, especially when I think about wearing it daily. You just can’t wear glossy lipsticks every day!

One of my favorite matte lipstick brands is the colorful 3CE Matte Lipstick from Style Nanda, and I own quite a number of these gorgeous lipsticks. Check them out here!
