Christian Dior Fall 2008 Couture Collection is haute couture at it's finest. John Galliano showed us glamourous perfection. Undeniably one of my favorite couture collection of all time. Everything came together for the show, the gorgeous models, fierce fashion and flawless make-up.Inspired by the 1930s, the rich plum and berry colors contrasted by warm, deep shades of beige punctuated the collection. I may have ran out of superlatives to describe Dior's Fall Collection.
This fall beauty look exudes an independent and free spirited woman. I also like that you don't have to wear haute couture with this look. Just wear darker rich shades for night and lighter shades for that fresh day look.
Grooming is not just for the ladies. Guys we have to look our best at all times! If you're planning on starting a daily regimen, it's best to choose a brand that makes products targeted for men. Few things to consider before starting your regimen. First, know your skin type. Oily, dry or combination. Then consider what you want to achieve: clear skin, firm or baby soft feel. If you're unsure on what to do, head to your favorite department store like Macy's, Nordstrom or Saks. Personal skin experts are always there to assist you. Or if you're not up for that consult a dermatologist.
A brand I reccommend is Sharp's Barber & Shop. They use the higest quality ingredients in innovative formulas, Sharp's delivers you a great result with a sense of humor. Not to mention, you won't smell like a chemical factory-- the scents are all very tasteful and subdued. Priced very reasonably. Hair products are also available from Sharp's Barber & Shop.
I'm sure that we have made bad hairstyle decisions at least once, or couple for a few. That you just want the hot new do like when Jennifer Anniston's 'The Rachel' shag was the most wanted hairstyle and at the end the style is not the best look for you. Wishing you thought about it more before jumping on your hairstylist's chair?
With the advancement in technology, fashion, beauty and style were right in front to use what is available out there in terms of enhancing the services offered. Dailymakeoever.com is one of them, the site can give you virtually any hairstyle out there and show how good or bad the style on you. It's easy and so much fun! The site also offers tips and keeps you up to date with the latest hairstyle trends. Now you can avoid those costly hairstyle disasters!
Ever ask one of your guy friends if they moisturize or use a facial scrub? There are only two answers to that question. Either he starts spilling the beans and you find yourselves a few hours later leaving Sephora with bags up to your shoulders -- or -- he refuses to admit to his daily facial regimen and replies with 'How 'bout those Dolphins?'
I consider myself lucky to be around someone whom I not only look up to, but from a very young age gave me pointers on how to 'age gracefully'... Thanks, Dad! But one thing he didn't mention is that the next best thing to the fountain of youth can be pretty expensive. I've tried all skin care brands out there -- most on a 'trial' basis that meant in a matter of weeks my toiletry bag was filled with a different brand (instant gratification is to blame for that). But I'm proud to say that for over a year now, the only skin care line that I use is Zirh.

A recent addition to the brand is the luxurious and superior skin care the Platinum Series. With prices ranging from $65.00 to $125.00 per product, this stuff probably works. Guys who are in the market for some skin care products, give Zirh a try. I suggest for starters go with a kit and if your not sure on what to do Zirh.com has a lot of information and tips. You can even get a personal skin consultant!
Coming from a country where black hair and dark brown eyes are the majority, I was always fascinated to see people with piercing blue or green eyes as well as those with any hair color than black. Of course such exposure was limited to movies and shows on T.V.
Fast forward to a time when I had decided to try something 'different' for myself -- to be blonde-haired and blue-eyed. I bleached my jet-black hair. Hours later my head was patchy yellow and orange mess. With no choice but to pay homage to G.I. Jane, I shaved my head.
Next came the color contact lenses. I tried every brand available and had no luck. I consulted an optometrist and to add to my dismay, I had to pay for every color lenses I wanted to try. That option was just too expensive!

Luckily, I came across LensShopper.com, a price comparison site for contact lenses. The site has a 'Visual Color Studio' -- an interactive and fun way to help you decide on which color contact lens is the best for you! The lenses on the site are the actual color of the lenses and not a representation. I know this because the blue Colorblend Lenses I ordered arrived yesterday and I am very satisfied with my purchase!
I also liked the feature that lists the best prices available from the most reputable companies once you've settled on the right color lenses. Very consumer friendly and easy to use... visit the site and try it!
My birthday is this weekend and I think having blue eyes for the celebration will be fun!
