Camo-ver Here! Fall 2013

Hi Fashionistas!

It is a couple days away from Thanksgiving..an American holiday celebrated on the last thurs of the month of November. So before I forget, to my American peeps..HAPPY THANKGIVING!!!!

So the title of today's blog is quite simple and I hope you got it right? I'll be touching on the revival of Camo aka Camouflage. I clearly remember talking about this a short time ago but a short time may mean a year or 2 ago. Anywayz, this has no serious explanation other than it's back in style from clothing to accessories.

TIP- I really liked how  Cosmo mag let u know that red lips will go well with this print.











Maybe you have this print already in your closet. If u do, pull it out and wear it as if it's new. If u buy something, flaunt it either way! All in all whether u closet shop or not, Have fun and BE CREATIVE! This is FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

FASHIONISTA NEWZ pick of Top Affordable Powders

I can't believe how fast the months are flying. Before you know it, its Thanksgiving and then Christmas!!!! In Florida the weather has changed to give you a sense that fall is here and winter is coming. I have the windows open to receive the fab cool air of the morning.

As I enjoy the breeze and so excited about the upcoming season (maybe becuz my bday is around the corner too lol), I decided to let u guys know what my pick of top affordable Face Powders are. Now again, my disclaimer is- my picks, mayn't be urs and it's through some trial and error am I able to come up with these decisions.

CLINIQUE ($20.00)

I absolutely love this brand and love their stay-matte sheer pressed powder. I use this to set my liquid foundation and it truly helps in keeping the oil away. This lasts a very long time becuz u only need a couple dabs of it.

MAC ($24.00)
I will always love MAC becuz they're MAC! But their Studio Fix Powder gives full coverage and can be worn by itself without setting it. This also lasts a pretty long time. However, Acne Prone gals, try not to wear this everyday becuz the particles are so fine to merge with your skin to create a flawless look, it may be that easy to remove and cause break-outs.

BLACK OPAL ($7.00 - $12.00)

These two powders, the Oil Absorbing and the Creme to Powder are just as great as the Department store brands. 

LANCOME ($38.00)

Heard great reviews on this and this is a well-known brand just as MAC. It gives you a smooth finish while mattifying ur face..hence DUAL FINISH. It's in my affordable list becuz compared to Chanel etc, this is a great buy.

NYC ($3.00)
This is an awesome setting powder. I use this translucent version on my clients and it gives such a smooth finish with no ashiness or white residue. If ur on a tight tight budget, then this will be your best friend!

Powders I've tried and were a NO-NO!
L'oreal True match powder- OMG wth is that? Or maybe it's my dark skin becuz this is a mess..there's no true match at all!

Neutrogena- why did I even bother with this...ashy!!!

Maybelline- I believe it's my skin colour becuz this did a poor job.

Milani- just ashy unfortunately

Powders I'll like to try
Iman
Nars
Makeup Forever
Inglot
Ben Nye

Be smooth and creative!!! This is FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

WATCH..it! Fall 2013

Hey there Fashionistas!

It's Nifty November already. In the US the time went back an hr so I was able to catch up on some much needed sleep!

So what's the next trend or trends this month? Well for sure skater skirts are still kicking around and those will look so swanky with stockings come Christmas time. Ok moving on...it's TIME to look out for MINI SKINNY WATCHES.

Cosmo Mag indcated that these watches aren't only skinny, in terms of the bands, but they also very colourful like neons or jeweled colours. This is an awesome idea to get away from the traditional gold, silver, browns, blacks and navys which helps add some colour to your winter-ish outfit.

You can also get a couple of them, turn the watch face inside and use them as coloured bracelets like the wrap-around ones that are hot on the market.




You can check your department stores for styles by COACH, FOSSIL, DKNY etc or you can catch them at your local mall boutiques.

Until next next time. Have Fun & Be Creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!
