Hot Trend: The shirt-dress

I love shirt dresses, it works on EVERY body type, it can go from day to night, classy to funky and the come in alot of great fabrics. It's a win-win. The 3 most popular styles or looks are classic, girly and rocker. The classic shirt dress is more structured and chic, its perfect for work, it usually comes in colors like black, navy, earthtones and neutrals. Its a great look to layer with a blazer or sweater.

The girly look is my fave! The fabrics are lighter in color, florals are common too. This look is flirty and romantic so don't forget to sweeten your look with a soft glam face and don't forget the blush!

The rocker look is the most popular because it allows you to be an indiviual. Patterns are very common as well as boots, leggings, hats, vests anything goes. With this look you really have to own it or the look will wear you.

The shirt dress is a versitile staple in every closet, just stay true to your style and you will be Fabulous as always.....Happy Friday forever your girl JeniqueK

Finding your perfect shade of foundation

Makeup can be so hard, when it really isn't suppose to be. The base of all of it is foundation. If the foundation is off, the whole face is off. How many times have you seen pictures or a person and the foundation doesn't quite match? Well, I got the sure fire way to get it right!First things first, figure out want type of skin you have and what type of coverage you need.

For example if you have combination skin and want a very fresh and light look, go with a tinted moisturizer or a liquid foundation, this offers the lightest coverage.

Cream foundation offers more coverage if you need it.

There are 3 secrects to matching up the perfect foundation, first you want to be in a room with plenty of natural light, so be very careful trying step two in a store with those aweful ceiling lights. Second, when looking at foundations, look at the three closet to your skin color and test it on your jaw line, that is the truest place to test (please don't test on the back of your hand)the one that you can blend in and disappears is yours, so bring a mirror or friend and be prepared to walk outside to make sure.

And last be never least blend, blend, blend! You can use a brush,

sponge

or your fingers

but blend until it is gone. Don't forget your neck while wearing foundation, so many of us do and remember you usually have to have a summer foundation and winter foundation, remember all of this and you will always be on point!

Always your girl, JeniqueK

Textured Stockings

I love the look of beautiful legs in an outfit enhanced by textured stockings. It is such an elegant look that with my help ever one can pull off. Their are four looks that are my personal favorite, fishnet, lace, floral, and vintage. The fishnet is probably the most popular, it does get the bad wrap of being slutty, but it is very affordable, comes in a varity of colors and sizes. The beauty about fishnet stockings are they add a touch of sexy to any outfit and look great on every leg.

The lace stocking to me are a cross between soft and edgy, the patterns can get very busy so you have to be careful with mixing. The lace can get pricey and the colors are limited, but they are still fabulous.

The floral stockings are pretty new on the scene. They bring a romantic appeal to any outfit. The floral stocking can come across as juvenille if worn wrong, with this look, keep your outfit light and fun.

Finally for the grown and sexy, vintage stockings. The vintage stocking includes the thigh highs and the single seam on the back. This look is sophicticated and sexy, but needs a with that mental to pull it off.However, it is kind of limited again with colors and sizes. The most popular look is a modern day pin up girl.

Textured stocking are a way for you to inject your personal style in uniforms, work clothes and well as a date night. Just understand your legs, get the right size, and take care of them with proper washing and hanging and they well do the same for you. Have fun with this look, always your girl JeniqueK

How to find your shade of nude.....

Nude makeup is so beautiful if it is done right, it make you look effortless with out looking over done. The perfect shade of nude is out there for every shade, it's all about finding your shade. The first thing you need to do is figure out if your skin is fair,

medium,

or dark,

try peach-based hues for fair girls, pink pigments for medium skin tones, and caramel-infused shades for dark-skinned chicas.Stay away from makeup that is too beige, it could easily wash you out or make you look ashy. When you have the right nude shade for your skin tone, the finish of the makeup item is key, add a touch of shimmer, either as a highlighter or blush to pull it all together.When going nude, a common misconception is that you should use flesh tones on either the lips or the eyes, not true, a hint of color,pink,rose bronze,something even if you can simply layer a bit of soft pink lipstick on top of your nude shade for a hint of color, beautiful!

Nude makeup enhances your natural beauty by making you look like you are glowing, however the better your skin is the better you can pull off this look. As always take a chance with this look, if its' not for you, no worries, you can always wipe it off and start over. Always your girl, JeniqueK

Sunglasses for fall 2012

Well friends, fall is fast approaching and we are going to take a peak into the top three trends for fall. Tortoise shell, Oxblood frames and Cateye frames are in my opinion the hottest trends for fall. Tortoise shell became really became popular in the 1950's, it was considered a preppy style but as times have changed it has regained popularity. I love it because it is a netural pattern that goes with everything. The key to rocking tortoise shell frames is to choose a pair of frames that match your face shape.

The Oxblood frames are cool because the color alone screams fall. With this color, you have to be careful because it looks great on every complextion except very pale and very dark. But if you just love that color and look, embrace a very bold frame. The bolder the frame, the more it seems that you march to the beat of your own drum.

The Cateye frame is a style, I think personally will never fade to far away, It always comes back but better. This look is not for the weak or faint, you have to have style to pull this off or you will just look like you are trying to hard. Also if you have a really round face, it will make you face look bigger.

I love fall, the change in weather, the change of leaves, and with all those changes why not change your look. Just remember what ever sunglasses your choose,take care of them with a case, and cloth to keep them clean; but most importantly, wear what you like, no matter what anyone says. Love you, mean it! Always your girl JeniqueK
