8 Rules Fashion Editors Live By

I don't remember where I found this list of rules, but I've had them stored in my phone just to share with YOU!

Rule #1: GO BIG
If you're wearing an eye-grabbing accessory (like an animal-print scarf), let it take center stage by pairing it with understated items.

Rule #2: THINK LIKE A STYLIST

Figure out what look- preppy, mod, grungy - is most you, and make it your signature.

Rule #3: FINISH IT OFF

The fastest, easiest way to pull nay ensemble together: Cinch a Belt Around Your Waist!

Rule #4: BLEND IN (JUST A LITTLE)

Rocking a print? Be sure the rest of your clothing picks up one of the colours in the pattern.

Rule #5: GET TOUGH

Pairing something edgy (a leather jacket) with something feminine (a floral top) always feels fashion forward.

Rule #6: LOVE ARM CANDY

A statement - making bag will instantly take whatever you're wearing to the next level.

Rule #7: BE SHADY

When putting colours together combine two brights or two pastels - not a bright and a pastel.

Rule #8: MIX BASIC AND BLINGY

To avoid looking over-the-top, tone down a super-dressy skirt with a classic shirt.

Dash's Notebook: How to get what YOU want!

Okay, so I admit I can be pretty stubborn and I love to get what I want, when I want it... But then again, Who doesn't?

Now, because I like what I want when I want it of courrsseee I would write down The Top 12 MOST PERSUASIVE words in the English language!

Here they are:

1. YOU

Surprised? Probably not... We all like to be acknowledged and appreciated. Now, be very careful, this word can be a little tricky. It can either get you what you want or a major beat down. Be sure not to use this word with an accusatory tone or you'll never get what you want... and I mean EVER!

What are the remaining eleven words on the Most Persuasive Words List?

2. Money

3. Save

4. New

5. Results

6. Health

7. Easy

8. Safety

9. Love

10. Discovery

11. Proven

12. Guarantee

Challenge: Try incorporating these words into your immediate vocabulary and see if it makes a difference.

Anddd... If anyone ends up getting a Black on Black Bentley Coupe out of it... Please let me know because I absolutely LOVE that car and by allowing me to drive it (all of the time) YOU will SAVE MONEY since YOU won't have to pay for gas. Plus it is PROVEN that the less YOU drive the more YOU can protect your HEALTH and SAFETY. This DISCOVERY has GUARENTEED RESULTS and the NEW precautionary method can be done in one EASY step; Just give the car to me!

LOL ;)

Fall into Fall Fashion

It's back to school time again and if you're anything like me you have a hard time letting go of anything having to do with summer... Especially the clothes!

Here are some easy tips on how you can use your summer wardrobe to transition into fall.

1. Pair your cute mini dress or skirt with a blazer or cardigan


2.Trade in your flip flops for a pair of moccasin flats or some killer boots!

3. Layer! Layer some of your summer tanks and tees for a trendy look, or add a Leather Jacket, Vest or Cardigan over top your fav tanks and tees to keep warm in the cool weather!

4. Accessorize - add scarves and hats to your wardrobe for a smooth and easy transition from one season to the next.

5. Change your nail colour from the Bright Neons to Rich Jewel Tones like Sapphire Blue and Ruby Red!!! (Kaa yuuute!!!)

FYI! Health & Beauty! ♥

I've got a few tips for you ladies (some of the skin care tips for the gentlemen as well lol). Be on the lookout as I will be posting random health & beauty tips here and there, possibly a few times a week. Never hurts to take care of our bodies right?! So pay attention and try a few of them out! =)

Concealer/Foundation:

If you're like me, you're not a huge fan of concealer & foundation, but sometimes it comes in handy. Here's a few tips!

1. To extend the life of your foundation or to cut down, try mixing it with a touch of your facial moisturizer.

2. When picking out your concealer/foundation, test the colour on the inside of your wrist. The skin has the LEAST amount of blemishes, and generally gives you an idea of what it will look like on your face!

3. Try applying a light additional layer of foundation after you've done your eye makeup. It makes it easier to fix any last minute smudges from either your mascara or eyeliner under your eyes.

Most of us, if not ALL of us are unfortunate enough to have to sometimes deal with those crappy bumps on our faces. Possibly the worst, being blackheads & whiteheads. Bleeeh! A way to fight them is an over-the-counter salycic acid or glycolic acid product which dissolves dead skin that clogs pores. I recommend Neutrogena! This stuff right here! -->
