Miley Cyrus is Coming for Beyonce's Throne!!!

                                        



Oh no she didn't!! LOL! Miley Cyrus  recently blasted singer Beyonce Knowles in her latest interview with Love Magazine. Cyrus proclaims that she's going  to take Queen Beys throne!! Miley expressed that even though she has looked up to Ms. Knowles in the past she feels her time is up. “Beyonce has been a big inspiration to me but she’s been out for such a long time. She’s so talented and I think she’s at the top of the game now but people are always looking for new blood and that’s what I bring to the game now, new blood.”

Ouch! I wonder how Beyonce feels about this and will she respond? Oh do ya'll hear that??? Its the Beyhive and they will sting Miley on all social media outlets for coming for their beloved "Queen". If you want to read more click the link! 

On another note, Beyonce has been in the game for years now and like any artist prior Mariah, Whitney, Barbara even Cher their careers reach a point when it becomes mellow. Not to mention Beyonce has been criticized recently for her latest sex up music videos in which critics are screaming "your a mom now! grow up!."  I would attempt to argue , Cher revealed her privates in the 80s when she had small children. However, the difference is Cher never put her husband in her videos. So I don't think Beyonce can counter argue with "well..its only art." Personally I think Miley is BRAVE for being so blunt. Rumors have been swirling around for months of Beyonces' alleged beef with Cyrus and I think this interview reveals the rumors are true!! Your thoughts??

3 Long Hairstyles for Fall

Three hairstyles for long hair this fall.


                                                  
Haute Ponytails

Since the Meta Gala took place in the fall we've seen plenty of stars rock low and high pony tails. It appears this look has lead us straight into Fall. Make a Haute Pony look sleek and with your next look by applying Chaacoca's argan oil and finishing mist duo to protect your hairs from heat damage. This look can get even better if you take a crimp the tail part of your lock and tease it with a paddle brush!




Nouveau Beehive              

Oh how Amy Winehouse's beehive has made a lasting impact but I think its awesome as a holiday do. There's nothing some mouse, a blow dryer, hair pins and a curling iron  can't do!!

        Loose Waves                                


Loose Waves are classic and no fuss. Stars like Beyonce have graced the red carpet with looses and for a laid back soft sexy look for the holiday season, this do is works well on all shapes of faces.

Happy Tuesday!!


Ladies I hope you're enjoying the blog. What I want to discuss in this post is what I do here and why I've decided to take the blog in this direction. As you know I love to cover fashion and particularly women in the public eye. From actresses, singers and even first ladies. Some of you may think,well why them? Simply, I feel that women who have high profile careers are the epitome of success and we should pay close attention. These women are great examples of what success can mean when your a female.

From Julia Roberts, Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, Lucy Lu and an endless list of others. There's no denying these women are on the top of their game professionally. Even more, they take meticulous care of themselves by ensuring they have access to the best trainers, stylist and of course cloths. In many ways they personify what a living goddess would be like....

The best part is is they all come in different flavors. Who doesn't love the beauty of Jennifer Aniston's toned arms or Beyonce's curvy body? I feel that female entertainers exude this inner radiance  that many women should apply to our own lives. They know they are the best and know they deserve to have the best. Sadly, I believe many women don't apply this principal to our own lives. I see too many young girls and older women who simply settle because they lack confidence and self value.

My goal with this blog is to let you know your beautiful on the inside and out. When I sign off with "beauty is a lifestyle" its about overall wellness that radiates  within. I leave on this note, ladies take care of yourself, know your value and don't allow anyone to devalue you. That's it for this post. Have a beautiful day!!

VMA After Party Style

Happy Tuesday!

In my opinion some of the best looks at the VMA's were seen during the actual show but at the after party that was held in NYC. Over the weekend some fashion blogs put Jessica Biel on the worst dress list because of her outfit. I know fashion is subjective but I really thought her dress was cute. The blue stiletto heels really kicked it off. I think her dress is something you either love or hate. Honestly, I wasn't surprise and kinda figured she would be placed on the worst dress list...Meanwhile Beyonce aka Mrs. Carter showed up wearing a see through cocktail dress with her new short bob that reminds me so much of how Ciara has been wearing her hair lately. Last but not least I love Rihanna's minimum black mini dress. The girl is edgy and can dress.

                                
Singer Ciara is absolutely gorgeous. Her she is with minimum make and her short side bob.Ciara is really a natural beauty.
     
Some peoples thought Rita Ora was Beyonce on the VMA red carpet.I know because I was one of them.

Hair Trends of 2013

Good Morning & Happy Monday!!

As always I want to start off by saying I wish everyone had a safe and relaxing weekend. This post I wanted to discuss hair trends that we saw this past spring of 2013. There were many different looks on the runway and of course some of our most famous female celebrities rocked these looks off the runway. One event event were the trends were straight on point was the Met Gala.  However, all in all the style that we saw were simple and something that even the everyday woman can do. So lets get to it.

                                                      
How appropiate for the rock and roll theme meta gla. Mrs. Carter rocked beautiful golden waves to the 2013 met gala.


Rock n Roll Waves

Waves were done well on the runway with just enough softness of the curl that makes this style soft and romantic. This would be great for any brides or bridesmaids out there who wish to look soft and romantic on that special day.

                   
Be sensible withyour hair accessories and chose a lovely scraf to wrap your do. Here we see Sieanna Miller with her spikey rocker version of accessories  while the pic next is an example of the scraf can be rocked.

Accessories

We saw the models parading done the runways over sized accessories such as fabric flowers, plastic hair pieces and what even appeared to be a lantern used in the Alexander McQueen show. As an  alternative scarfs were practical and beautifully done. Check out of selection of  kashmir Tepper Jackson scarfs to get the look.

                                     
                      Minka Kelly wore  beautiful messy updo for the 2013 met gala.

Undone Up dos

Messy up dos were spotted on the runway this season. I believe the term "casual coolness" has been coined to describe this look. Designers like Valentino and Vera Wang had models strolling down the runway with this look.
               
                                
             Inaddition to rocking a noise ring Jessica Biel had beautiful sleek shiney hair.

Slick Hair
Get out your hair gel because the wet hair look came this time around minus the drenched from the sea look which was perfected and taken down a noch.  This season glossy goddess like waves grace the runways.


Low Pony Tail
The modern take on the pony tail envoled positioning flat ironed hair beneath the nape that really displayed the length of long tresses. Different hair bands and ribbons used to hold the low pony tail in place.
                                         
                                   Jessica Alba with beautifully braided updo french bun hair do.


Braid Neat
Messy braids that are beautifully sculptured are always cute. We saw not only classic messy french braids row braids were also worn.
    
               Actress Diane Kruger rocked the knot/low pony tail with pink ends at the met gala awards.

The Knot
Low chignons are very chic and timeless simple to do it's just a simple blow dry hair with a center part. The hair is then secured into a neat ponytail. A little hair mist later just spray the hair with shine mist like Chaacoca's Argan Oil Shine Finising  Hair Mist and style the hair in looped ends pointed or tucked under, round ballet bun or go for the classic double knot.

Chime for Change

     
                            

 I love a worthy cause especially one that promotes the well being of women. The Chime for Change concert was held yesterday and was headlined by Beyonce Knowles-Carter and other notable artist such a Jennifer Lopez and John Legend. I've never heard of the event prior to yesterday. However, it was founded by design house Gucci and is a new women's and girls empowerment initiative that promotes education, health and justice.


                               
                           From left to right Blake Lively, Freda Pinto, and another red haired actress.

Blake Lively looks super cute in her white mini. I love her up do and turquoise jewelry. Freda Pinto I love love love your suit. I don't know if powdery red lips are Freda's signature but she does it well.  Personally I love when women wear androgynous inspired suits. I think Isabella Rossellini may have started this. I could be wrong but I remember her style was always masculine as is Diane Keaton's.

                   
                                            Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez

Hmmm.....dueling diva's? People have always said Beyonce was another version of JLo... Or maybe they have the similar  taste??... On any account Bey and JLo look great.

Meta Gala Awards 2013

The stars were out and about last night in attendance of the 2013 Meta Gala Awards. The red carpet became a fashion runway of the hottest female celebrities. With so many choice and fashion Diva's I don't know were to start. Lets take a look at some of these beautiful gown and a few of the ones that least stood out.

         
Beyonce always looks good but  I'm not a fan off this number on her. The fit is too tight and she went overboard with the print. Basically, I think she looks contrived.  As opposed to Sarah Jessica Parker who's ensemble really looked a piece of art but in an effortless way. I loved her giant mohawk head piece.

  
Madonna, I couldn't believe it was her. I think this is a great look for Halloween for a younger person. This was another looked I really didn't like. While Cameron Diaz looked regal in her blue gown with swiped back hair and a belt. You an wear this one and off the carpet.


 
Jessica Biel did something different and rocked a fake septum nose ring to keep up with this years rocker them. Gotta give it up to her because I have a nose ring also!! While Ms. Anne Hathaway practically took stole the entire event with her short platnium blond cute. Ms. Hathaway honey you better wrek!!!

  
Kelly Osbourne is another female celebrity who is fashion forward and always does her own thing on the red carpet. I love her black Marc Jacobs dress. While of course the ever fashionably fabulousity of Ms. Jennifer Lopez just oozed over the red carpet. Mama was smoking in her leopard print number and up do. She had the beautiful coppery golden skin that's become her signature.


 
Twilight's Ashley Green wore a beautiful black gown embroidered with golden floral prints while designer Diane Von  Furstenberg gave us a bit of show girl glam.


Sienna Miller looked great with her punk rock themed look. Her hair was brushed to the side along with a simple braid in the front. The gown was a beautiful simple white silhouette with a plugging v-neck cut. I think she looked amazing.


Solange Knowles is very stylish in her own right and deserves more recognition than she's recieving. I really like this cut out and the print with the Afro and earrings. I give her an A plus and one of the best dress on the carpet. There's something about this that translates to an evening out on the town on a summer night.


So which celebs had your favorite looks?
