4 ways to lush up your lashes
no.1: thin lashes.. i want fat ones
falsies are the gold standard. but if you don't want to go that route, load up lashes with thickening mascara. do: three coats, letting each dry before doing another.
another get-thick trick: eyeliner. a thin streak creates the illusion of more lashes
no.2 : straight lashes.. i want a lasting curl
an eyelash curler is a must.
a. before diving in, use a hair-dryer to warm it up.(be careful, dont get it to hot)
b. then starting at the base of your lashes, gently squeeze and release the curler, moving up until you meet the ends.
c. sweep on a curling mascara- they really do give lashes a bend.

no.3: short lashes.. i want major length
build up those shorties!
a. apply mascara from lash base to tips
b. put on a second coat from the middle to ends
c. then do a final swipe just on the tips.
don't forget the lashes on the outer corners of your eyes- give them attention for a wide-eyed effect
no.4: blond lashes.. i want some color
extra-black mascara will give you the intensity you're craving. even more fun: coat all your lashes or just the bottom ones with blue or green. it is funky and sort of eighties. apply a white primer like lancome oscillation powerbooster, to make the color pop. happy vogue.

the LBD
we had a request for the best little black dress for all occassions.
we looked up the definition the little black dress and we dont think we could sum it up any better:
the "little black dress" is considered essential to a complete wardrobe by many women and fashion observers, who believe it a "rule of fashion" that every woman should own a simple, elegant black dress that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion: for example, worn with a jacket and pumps for daytime business wear or with more ornate jewelry and accessories for evening. because it is meant to be a staple of the wardrobe for a number of years, the style of the little black dress ideally should be as simple as possible: a short black dress that is too clearly part of a trend would not qualify because it would soon appear dated.
the color black is great for so many reasons:
a. flattering
b. flattering
c... its flattering
the 'little black dress' is simple, sexy, and classy. the only problem is... finding the perfect one.
1. Victoria's Secret Little Black Dress
2. Nordstrom Eight Sixty Illusion Waist Knit Dress
3. Nordstrom Teeze Me Orgami Pleat Strapless Dress
4. Chadwick The Little Black Dress
5. Venus Sexy Tuxedo Dress
6. Boston Proper Little Black X-Back Dress
happy vogue.
