Fun French Manicure

Nailpolish is the cheapest, quickest and easiest way to update your look. The designer Yves Saint Laurent sent these colorful nails down his runway. We love the mix and match of colorful polished nails and tips! It's something fun and different from the french manicure norm. We cant wait to try this new trend out! Pin It

Kortni Jeans Swimsuits

Summer is right around the corner which means SWIMMING! We are super excited because Kortni Jeane has just announced she is going to start mass producing her swimsuits (in a factory) so she can spread her swimsuit love far and wide! They should be available later this Summer but in the meantime if you're still in the market for a new swimsuit she has opened a Etsy shop or for all you locals you can contact her by email and try them on before you buy. They're all one of a kind which we LOVE...it means you will be the only one at the pool wearing it! Pin It

Bows bows bows

We have been inspired by bows lately. They're feminine, fun and thanks to Lady Gaga they can even be edgy! We love the idea of pulling a few pieces of hair back and tying them in a little bow on the back of your head (top picture). This weekend we want to try that big "hair-bow" (shown at the bottom), it would be fun for a party! Have a good weekend! Pin It

hair how-to: Unruly Bangs

Have you ever had a bad bang day? If you have bangs you know exactly what I'm talking about! It may just be "one of those days" or maybe you're new to bangs and you're still trying to figure out how to manage them but here are a few tricks we have put together to keep them under control!
1} One of the biggest mistakes is letting their bangs air-dry and then trying to style them, once they're dry you've lost all control! Get to your bangs when they're still wet; hop out of the shower, comb them forward and blow dry them right away and get them exactly how you want them. It's a bangsaver!
2} Cowlick problem? You can still have bangs, it's just in the way you style them! If you want to wear them straight across while blow drying them brush them to the left, to the right, backwards, forward and then straight down. That and a little hairspray should help control those crazy cowlicks!
3} Bumble and bumble's Hair Powder is amazing for bangs (and the rest of your hair for that matter)! If they get greasy or you used to much product mid-day or on second-day hair, spray a little bit and it will absorb all the oils.
4} When you blow dry your bangs, blow them in all directons. Especially direct them in the opposite direction you wear them, it keeps them from being flat and limp.
5} If your bangs still arent behaving, a cute braid, twist, headband or hat should do the trick! Pin It

hair how-to: Yuliya II

We showed you Yuliya's first look with Bumble and bumble's new Shine on Finishing Spray. Here is a second look that you can get by adding more Shine Spray. We love the messy volume you get wih this recipe.

1} Spray damp hair all over with Tonic Lotion. Follow by spraying Thickening Hairspray all over the hair.
2} Blow dry with a round brush lifting at the root for volume.
3} Lightly mist on Shine on Finishing Spray.

4} Work through with a flat brush to evenly coat hair. Mist more Shine Spray as needed.
(P.S. The video above shows a step by step how-to)
