Wonderbra presents strapless ‘finger-design’ underwear
Summer is hot and lots of women want to show off their beautiful shoulders wearing strapless dresses but not all of them can really do that safely. I mean those with fuller bust can hardly dare to wear a strapless dress as keeping their assets in place is pretty difficult, especially if a woman is active and likes dancing and moving much.
No we’ve got the solution and it came from Wonderbra company. The revolutionary Ultimate Strapless bra was launched yesterday. It promises to stay up as long as you do.
Summer 2009 must-have: Metal Embellishment
Summer 2009 is all about sparkling and making some noise. Metal embellishment is a wonderful way to combine the two. Metal decoration is really huge this season so be ready to see a lot of metal embellished items on store shelves.
From metal beads to metal handles, from tiny peaces to heavy decoration, metal is almost everywhere in summer 2009! Wanna be hot? Go metal!
This is an amazing shoulder bag! It’s made of synthetic leather and decorated with metal mesh. Studden accents, antique brass tone hardware, O-ring details make it look really sexy, feminine and sparkling. Simply can’t take my eyes off of it.
Handbags: The Truth About What We Hoard In Them
Our handbags are full of rubbish- it’s official. New research has confirmed what most of us have suspected for years.
Other than the usual suspects, such as purses and keys, there were a few unusual objects in the handbag mix, like detachable car CD players and screwdrivers for repairing glasses.
Despite this, 92% of these items weren’t seen as being useful by the 1,300 women surveyed and over half of respondents (57%) admitted they only use 1-5 of those items on a regular basis.
The same five items were also voted the most useful: purse, keys, phone, pack of tissues and a pen and notebook – all of which featured higher than makeup- in the survey carried out by Kleenex.
TV psychologist Anjula Mutanda comments: “This research shows that whilst we recognise that we don’t need all these things cluttering up our handbags we do still tend to cling on to objects “just in case” – we are nurturers by nature and therefore prepare accordingly. All we really need though is just five essential items, as identified in the research, that will actually have a use on a day-to-day basis when we are out and about
“What is interesting, however, is that it’s clear from the research that today’s women are demanding both fashion and function from their handbags and the products they put in them. That suggests that we’re unwilling to compromise – basically we want it all in one handbag fix: stylish must-haves that are also useful.”
This notion is confirmed by the fact that over half (51%) of women said they wouldn’t buy something just because it looks good and a further 1 in 5 said that they liked to buy things that look stylish.
Anjula’s top tips on de-cluttering your handbag:
* Choose a bag that fits with your lifestyle and with what you need, nothing much more
* Clear out your handbag when you get in every night to rid it of those unnecessary items – only carry the essentials
* Choose a purse that does the job and no more – you don’t need a brick!
* Kick out unnecessary keys and hefty key chains
* Try weighing your things to see how realistic you are being. If they are too heavy then you could consider using compact versions wherever possible: smaller purses, a smaller notebook, a mini-sized pocket pack of tissues etc
Summer style Ideas: Wide Belts
Belts are frequently a forgotten accessory. We only think about them if our pants get loose (ha, when does that happen?) or if your dress or ensemble came with a belt already included. I know I for one, always forget about my belts and I actually have a pretty sweet collection.
So that got me thinking about how I could incorporate belts into my daily outfits without a lot of hassle.
Wide belts are probably the easiest to wear. You can just throw one on top of a tunic, button down top, sweater, long tank top, a-line dress and the list goes on.
Beauty Tips From Kate Winslet
Kate Winslet attended the New York premiere of “Away We Go” Monday, June 1, 2009. Probably it’s no a great surprise that she appeared there. The point we are curious about is her fresh and glam chic look. She might have spent hours to get this splendid make up.
Julia Bolino, the slap.uk.com make-up artist gives step-by-step recommendations on how to achieve the barefaced beauty look yourself.
1. Flawless skin. Kate’s face was covered with a foundation with light-reflecting particles, so that the light could bounce off her face. Blemishes and under-eye shadows have been hidden with concealer. A loose light powder makes her foundation stay firmly on the face.
