Hello Gorgeous,

“You dazzling Diva…Yes you! You just know how to steal the show don’t you?”

Tell me you don’t like to turn heads when you make an entrance at that party! If you don’t then skip this post 😉 I don’t want you to blend in when you were clearly born to stand out.

I know we all say we dress for ourselves, but come on..we know better don’t we? Let’s be honest, we gals dress for each other and have a great time doing so (I certainly do).

So, now that we have cleared that up let’s get down to what you can do to stand out in a crowd at that party/event.

Let’s turn some heads shall we?

  1. Keep your skin dewy and fresh, luminosity is the key. So, by all means mask those pesky acne scars with concealer but try and keep your skin as glowy as you possibly can and fake the I’ve been eating my veggies and been drinking copious amounts of coconut water.
  2. Go Red. One simple swipe of red lipstick and boom, you’re the bell of the ball… 🙂 Well not quite that easy, but you get where I’m going with this. Red = confidence + get noticed.  
  3. Go head to toe monochrome. Very few people are comfortable with this look. I, on the other hand love it. And please stop with the black on black. There ARE other colors in the color wheel, I’m almost certain 😉
  4. Showing a little skin? Dab a dollop of illuminator down your legs and shoulders. It’s very sexy.  
  5. Wide legged jeans…trust me… it works..every time. So the next time we see each other in those sexy hip hugging wide legged jeans..I’ll be sure to notice you 😉
  6. Keep those tresses shiny …I hope you have your hairdresser’s number handy. Get those ends trimmed religiously and work in some oil to give it a little shine cause isn’t that the objective here? To shine? Moving on….
  7. Get adventurous with your handbag. A little print here and a little print there. NO! it most definitely does not have to be Chanel or the likes of it gorgeous…I cannot stress this enough.  Sporting the latest handbag will not get you noticed. Your bag might, but not you 😉 While it’s great to throw that brand new high end designer bag over your shoulder, it is not a prerequisite. You hate me yet?.. I say it like it is..that’s why you keep coming back for more and I’m so glad you do 🙂
  8. Smile, it’s your best accessory and it doesn’t cost you a dime!

 

I can go on and on. You know I can. But let’s stop for now and enjoy the compliments the next time you GET NOTICED! …You’re welcome gorgeous..xoxo

Paris is always a good idea.

Bonjour Gorgeous,

The French woman… ooh la la!

Let’s take a minute here. Is it her accent, her style, her general demeanor? We hear about Parisian chic all the time.The French do it this way and the French do it that way? What is this way exactly? What does she do so differently from the rest of us?

Sit at a riverside cafe, wearing your Chanel sunnies and sip a glass of bordeaux but it will never be the same.You may even may pay homage to the French fashion gods Hermès, Chanel, Dior and YSL (we don’t have all day to go down the list), but my point being that the French woman has a certain je ne sais quoi about her that’s very elusive to capture. It’s a combination of attitude and style. The style I can help you with, but the attitude will take years of consuming French wine and cheese and maybe LIVING THERE? 😉

So what ARE the French fashionistas doing different?

 A Buttoned-down, a pair of high-waisted jeans, a navy blazer with gold buttons(I know its specific), a beautiful silk scarf worn in a way that only a French woman can, fantastic mules, red lips, messy waves, her teeny tiny bag and cat eye sunglasses. And, she smells divine..Of course!

Time to deconstruct:

  1. She loves her scarves, not that this one is news to you..EVERYONE knows that. Want to learn a million different ways to tie a scarf, ask her.
  2. She doesn’t go overboard with her lipstick. Her lips look more stained.. like she’s just been kissed 🙂 …so apply, rub with your finger and then purse your lips on tissue so it looks more natural.
  3. She loves her high waisted jeans, striped tees, buttoned downs and blazers!
  4. Her deliberate messy bed hair is so signature. It’s never quite that perfect and that’s what makes it so sexy.
  5. She believes less is more with clothing AND makeup.
  6. She is very into her skin care… ever been to  French pharmacy? If not, it’s about time. The routine is simple but fantastic.
  7. French perfume…I need not say a word.  She loves her perfume… you will never find a French woman without her “signature scent”
  8. Sunglasses?… always.
  9. She doesn’t wear 5 inch heels, she believes in comfort above everything else and that’s what makes her so chic.

She is not trying to be overtly sexy, that’s just not who she is. She will never try too hard and cuts straight to the chase in a conversation. For those who know me know that I have THAT ONE down PAT. 🙂

No Gorgeous, I’m not FRENCH but after an evening of wine and cheese with friends she does rub off a little bit ;). OH STOP.. I TRY !…xoxo
