The BEST Workout Clothing by VATA

Posted in: Celebrity Fashions & Gossip, Gift Ideas for GIRLS, Health & Fitness, What to wear NOW

So of course when I heard Kim Kardashian was endorsing a new brand of workout clothes, I just haddddd to see what it was all about. I have seen Kim in cute workout pants before and loved them, and now I finally know what they are. Everyone get excited because VATA, which is made by Muscle Flex, is amazing!

From sports bras and jackets, to capri workout pants and shorts, VATA creates the perfect workout clothing. The secret here is definitely the material. The material is that super thick, but comfy spandex us girls love. You know, the kind that sucks everything in and makes almost everyone’s butt look great? Yup! The crazy thing is, is all their items are one size fits all because the material is so stretchy. It really does stretch or shrink to any size, fitting almost all sizes perfectly.

The perfect attire for yoga, the gym, running, comfy and stylish.

I am so sad I missed this event! Kim Kardashian was in Las Vegas this weekend to launch her new fragrance. She hit up Tao Nighclub at The Venetian, such cute pics.

The actual perfume itself mixes notes that reflect aspects of Kim’s personality… Jasmine, tuberose and gardenia evoking her femininity, then tonka bean and sandalwood suggesting an even softer side.

The Layered Looks Is IN

Posted in: Celebrity Fashions & Gossip, What to wear NOW

Right now I am loving layers. Actually… I always do. I have never been one to show much skin, so Winter is definitely my favorite month because I can dress like a bundled up Grandma and people won’t look so perplexed.

Anyway…

I saw this picture of Kim Kardashian, (weird Kim Kardashian? I know…) and loved her take on the layered look. It is amazing how far an over-sized T, scarf and jacket can go. I just got a super cute over-sized T from cutesygirl.com and never want to take it off! It works perfect under vests or jackets. I got mine in black but they also have white and cream that are really cute too.

Throw that on with some grey skinny jeans, a blazer, scarf, some cute earrings and bangles and you’ll perfect the layered look that all the celebs are sporting right now.

I would totally wear this outfit out to any location, dinner, a club, a chilly day date, it’s great because its super versatile. You can dress it up with curly hair, or dress it down like Kim did with a cute, simple pony tail. Soooo… next time you are getting ready, try out the layered look! Super cute trend I’m loving

For a few cute options on things to layer, check out www.lulus.com or www.cutesygirl.com both have tons of blazers, t-shirts, scarfs, accessories etc…

Long Sleeve Mini Dresses are IN

Posted in: Celebrity Fashions & Gossip, What to wear NOW

I love long sleeve dresses, always have, always will. There is something that is just not super flattering about tube tops for me, too much skin showing, always pulling them up etc… so long sleeve dresses or dresses with sleeves have always been my choice. This season you see tons of celebs sporting them!

I love this lace one Kim Kardashian has on. It shows enough, but not too much. I also love that since long sleeve dresses cover up so much on top, you can opt for a shorter dress while still looking classy. Always balance out the amount of skin you show to keep that sexy but sweet style.

Tips for how to wear long sleeve mini dresses:

* Pair with a closed toe Mary Jane pump or thigh high boot

* If it is a lace/fancy satin fabric, don’t go over board on hair & make up. Pick one to doll up, leave the other less wild. Opt for a smokey eye and hair back like Kim

* Don’t over accessorize. I see so many girls who wear TOO many accessories. If you have a dress with a lace fabric that is already super dressy. Add curly hair and dark make up, even dressier. Add 89 accessories and now you’re just over done.

If your hair is back you can wear a dangly earring. Hair down, choose something simple like a diamond stud.

One KIND of similar I found online, keep your eyes peeled for these when shopping!

Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation- BEST Ever!

Posted in: BEST Of..., Gift Ideas for GIRLS, Girly things I love!, Make up Tips, Skin Care
Girls, meet your new best friend… Estee Lauder! Out with MAC foundation, and in with grandma’s favorite Estee Lauder’s Double Wear fountation. I know, I know, you’re skeptical but it’s true! Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation is wayyyy, wayyyy, WAY better than MAC’s foundation. My friend Lindsay told me about this secret switch and after trying it out, I really love it 239,231,454 times better! It wears so much better than MAC, with little to no touch ups needed the entire day. I don’t know about you, but with MAC I had to touch up through out the day and by 4pm always looked like my face was melting off. Not a good look. Anyway, it is about $32 bucks and I got mine at Nordstrom. You can get it at any Estee Lauder counter, or online here.

I get TAWNY color if that helps anyone

Double Wear offers:
- 15-hour staying power.

Advantages:
- Goes on smoothly
- Great range of colors
- Covers well and gives a flawless finish
- Does not feel heavy or cakey
Disadvantages:
- More pricey than some other foundations, for sure worth the price!
Overall Opinion:
- It covers so well, feels great on my skin, goes on smoothly, and matches perfectly even if I am not super tan!
- It does not make me look orange like MAC’s foundations do, and covers even better.
Try it out and lemme know what you think!

Kim Kardashian’s Favorite Under Eye Concealer

Posted in: BEST Of..., Celebrity Fashions & Gossip, Gift Ideas for GIRLS, Make up Tips, Skin Care

As you know I am a big fan of Kim Kardashian, and of course always love her make up. Her make up artist shares his tips and I love posting them! I think they are so useful because he’s obviously a reliable source. This week’s tip was for under eye coverage. Many people email me about this topic so I had to share his choice for BEST under eye concealer. Yes it’s even Kim’s favorite!

His pick for the BEST under eye concealer?

The best concealer really depends on the skin or area you want to cover up. If I had to choose one right now, I’d say the Lift Concealer by Make Up For Ever. Apply some with a brush to under eyes, blend with a damp sponge and set with translucent powder using the same damp sponge. Brush away that excess powder and voila – you’ve got flawless, crease-less under eyes!

To order this concealer go to Sephora.com

More than just a concealer! It contains tensine, an active ingredient with skin-firming properties for the eye area, and vitamins A and E, which regenerate the skin. This multi-purpose product also conceals specific, darker areas (brown spots, blotches, etc.) and can be used as a highlighter on the more prominent parts of the face (cheekbones, forehead, and chin) for added radiance.

Dany’s Tip: “If you have wrinkles around the mouth and eyes, apply directly into the crease, then blend with light movements into your foundation.”

Want Thinner Coverage?

Posted in: BEST Of..., Gift Ideas for GIRLS, Make up Tips, Skin Care

I personally prefer a thicker foundation, but many of you DO want to wear a thinner foundation! When I do want to go lighter on the foundation, I use Smashbox’s Sheer Tint. It has a bit of color and coverage but leaves you looking glowy and natural. Try it out!

I use the Medium tint in case that helps. It also has SPF 15 which is nice
