Steal Blake's Dressing Style
This summer could very well be termed the season of Blake Lively. The 23-year-old actress has moved up from her stint in the TV drama Gossip Girl to a starring role opposite Ryan Reynolds in this summer��s blockbuster action hit, The Green Lantern, which hits theaters in the U.S. on June 17. She��s also gracing the covers of both People StyleWatch Magazine (June issue) and Glamour Magazine (July issue), and has been heating up the celebrity rumor mill with her fledgling romance with Hollywood hottie Lenoardo DiCaprio.
The California native might be building her portfolio, but she��s almost as well known for her fashion and beauty sense as she is for her career moves. So, what are her style secrets?
For starters, Blake has that perpetual golden glow. Use a gradual self-tanning lotion, like Jergens Natural Glow Revitalizing Daily Moisturizer ($8) to get the sun-kissed effect without the burn. Moisturization is also key to glowy, healthy skin, so remember to slather on a good body lotion daily to ward off dry skin before it starts.
For hair as lush and shiny as Blake��s, use your favorite deep conditioning treatment 1-2 times per week to keep hair hydrated and healthy, then use a monthly glazing treatment to boost your hair��s color and shine. (One to try: John Frieda Luminous Color Glaze, $10.)
When it comes to her makeup, Blake tends to stick to a low-key palette that lets her natural beauty show through, with staples like tinted moisturizer and pinky gloss. The finishing touch? Several coats of black mascara; to perfectly mimic Blake��s fluttery fringe, use a lash comb to fully separate your lashes.
Finally, take a cue from Blake and experiment with color, whether it��s head-to-toe red or an unexpected combo, like turquoise and deep purple. If that famous smile is any indication, she��s having fun expressing herself through her fashion choices, and you should, too!
Sneakers for all occasions Converse Chuck Taylor Shoes
Sneakers for all occasions: Converse Chuck Taylor Shoes
Fashion trends come and go on a seasonal basis, and shoe trends switch up fairly often as well. But while platforms might come and go and we might switch from round to pointy toes on our high heels depending on the decade, there��s one style of shoe that has remained popular for decades and will probably never go out of style: Converse Chuck Taylor Shoes.
Converse Chuck Taylor Shoes
The sporty lace-up sneaker, made of canvas and rubber, has older origins than you might think! It was invented in 1917 by Converse and marketed simply as ��All-Stars��, with Converse hoping to cash in on the basketball market. In the 1920s, basketball player and company spokesman Chuck Taylor improved the shoes�� design and their popularity took off. Converse subsequently incorporated Taylor��s signature into their logo and today the shoes are popularly known simply as ��Chuck Taylors�� after their famous original spokes model.
Converse Chuck Taylor shoes have been hugely popular over the years with everyone from celebrities to youth in punk rock garage bands. Famous faces like Nicole Kidman and Gisele Bundchen love their Converse Chuck Taylors for more casual days. Rockers like Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti are known to rock Chuck Taylors 24-7. Perhaps the most famous face to wear Chuck Taylors on the red carpet is ��Twilight�� actress Kristin Stewart, who has been known to pair couture minidresses with her beloved yet battered Chuck Taylors!
While classic black Converse Chuck Taylors are the obvious choice, today you can buy a pair of the cult sneakers in just about every color under the sun. They come in patterns, lace up to the knee, and have been reinvented dozens of times over to follow current trends. In fact, you can even customize the color and design on your sneakers for a fee: at Converse.com, you can walk through every step of the design process to create a custom pair of Converse sneakers to suit your own personal taste or to create a one-of-a-kind gift for a friend.
So why are Converse Chuck Taylor shoes so popular? Part of it is comfort; it��s hard to beat a pair of sneakers when you��re running errands or you��ll be on your feet all day shopping and hanging out with friends. And part of it is simply the scruffy-cool, ��I��m with the band�� attitude the shoes project. Last but not least, there��s the versatility to wear them with anything in your closet. Just ask gals like Kristen Stewart: a pair of Chuck Taylors goes with anything!

Prom Dresses Trends 2013
2013 is just on its way, and at New York, London, Milan and Paris Fashion week ,various reputable brands have already presented their new collections for spring and summer 2013. Though the prom dresses displayed at the fashion shows may be quite expensive, but at least ,they really bring a great feast to our eyes. Moreover, we can catch a clue for the trends of prom dresses 2013.Today I will make a list of the latest trends of 2013 prom dresses.
Trend 1: The rejuvenation of Lace Element
Lace used in prom dresses turned out to be a great success in the past, but in recent few years, the designers'passion on the fabric seemed cool down.In the forthcoming 2013, the rejuvenation of lace seems to bring a great surprise to the world. The visual effects may be various. For instance, some designers make a great combination of their new design concept with soft pastel colors in order to create an artistic feeling; some others adopt bold ideas, scheming out pierced works that features openwork lace effect and soft decorative wallpaper-like effect so as to outline the perfect silhouette of wearers. By the way, the two color joint lace effect is wildly used in 2013 spring collections.
Trend 2: Simple Shape
In 2012, various designers present a collection of prom dresses in full details. Layers upon layers, elaborately made ruchings, twinkling sequins and intricate structures. When it comes to 2013, the designers seems to pay more attention on the stunning silhouette of the wearers herself. Simple cut and fluent lines accurately accentuate the shape. Wise decorations break the monotony.
Trend 3: Short Dresses and Cocktail Dresses
Modern girls should be more independence, smart and cool. So in 2013, various designers introduce their short designs to the public. From knee-length to six feet length, from traditional bubble skirts to modern cocktail dresses .Meanwhile, those dresses may combine some inspirations from the office lady suits. Some formal suits and even bomb jackets are used to match the dresses ,so the girls can look more capable and experienced, sophisticated and sexy.
Trend 4: Printing Styles
In 2013, printing fabric become very popular. Sounds incredible, but that's the truth. Take a preface of the fashion shows, you will find various brands display their printed masterpieces. For example, as it is shown in the following pictures, some dresses are printed with funny animal prints, some dresses are printed with those ancient roman printings. The fantastic graphics will bring fun, cute, vintage or other effect you want.
Trend 5: Perspective and Fantastic
Transparent gauzy fabric is another trend for the next season. On account of the new technology, more and more designers tend to adopt the transparent designs. The difference is that the size of the area. They try to insert the two kind of fabric tighter in order to create an unique touch just like a piece of fabric hang on the body.
Pin Up Girl Swimsuits

This lens endeavors to find the perfect suit to flatter every body type. If you're curvy, queen size, hourglass, slender, have large breasts, small breasts, big hips, a chubby tummy, a long torso, or any other variation of size and shape, there is something here that will flatter your figure and make you the hottest bombshell on the beach this summer!
Native American Wedding Culture
Apache bride
The indigenous peoples of the Americas have varying traditions related to weddings and thus wedding dresses. A Hopi bride traditionally would have her garments woven by the groom and any men in the village who wished to participate. The garments consisted of a large belt, two all-white wedding robes, a white wedding robe with red stripes at top and bottom, white buckskin leggings and moccasins, a string for tying the hair, and a reed mat in which to wrap the outfit. This outfit also would serve as a shroud, since these garments would be necessary for the trip through the underworld.
A Pueblo bride wore a cotton garment tied above the right shoulder, secured with a belt around the waist.
In the traditions of the Delaware, a bride would wear a knee-length skirt of deerskin and a band of wampum beads around her forehead. Except for fine beads or shell necklaces, the body would be bare from the waist up. If it were a winter wedding, she would wear deerskin leggings and moccasins and a robe of turkey feathers. Her face would be painted with white, red and yellow clay.
The tribes of Northern California (which include the Klamath, the Modoc and the Yurok) had a traditional bridal dress woven in symbolic colors: white for the east, blue for the south, yellow (orange) for the west; and black for the north. Turquoise and silver jewelry were worn by both the bride and the groom in addition to a silver concho belt. Jewelry was considered a shield against evils including hunger, poverty and bad luck.
Long Torso Tankini Swimsuits
Like many women, I must admit that Swimsuit Season is my LEAST favorite season of the year. This is partially due to the fact that I am 5' 11" and find it extremely difficult to find swimsuits to fit my tall torso. One piece suits are simply not long enough for me: the shoulder straps are so tight they force me to stoop, and the cups fall several inches short of where they're supposed to be. I apologize for the visual that must give you! A solution for some tall women might be to sport an itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini or other minimalistic attire. Having given birth to four children, my tummy-baring days are long gone. Thankfully, there is a compromise! Enter the long torso tankini!!! With a long torso tankini swimsuit, women can have the coverage of a one piece while having the height flexibility of a two-piece.
Long Torso tankinis are hard to find in stores
Thankfully, we live in the era of the internet, and there are many cute and sexy long torso tankini separates online! It might be a little scary to buy a swimsuit online since you can't try it on beforehand, but most retailers provide sizing charts to help you find the perfect fit just by taking a few quick measurements yourself.
Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your bust.
Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your waist (usually near your navel).
Hips: (For Tankini bottoms) Measure around the fullest part of your hips
You might also be able to order your long torso tankini top by your bra size, so have that handy, too.

Prom 2013 Dress Option
The Two-piece
Girls all across the world are trying to tip the scale and go for an edgier look every prom season. In doing this they intend to have a dress that dominates the catwalk and red carpet. This season the two piece prom dress is resting gracefully at the top of that scale. The great aspect to wearing a two-piece dress is the fact that you can personalize it to your liking. Although you're able to customize many different types of dresses, the two-piece dress can be mismatched and worn with different things. Most two-piece dresses come with a corset, so let's just say you're going out for a night on the town; well, you can wear that same corset with a pair of jeans or another trendy skirt. Convertible dresses, or dresses that have detachable skirts, are basically the same as a two-piece dress. Two-piece and convertible dresses provide the wearer with more for their money because they are able to wear parts of their dress on several different occasions. Also, it is better to buy an actual two-piece dress, as opposed to trying to make one from scratch, because it will flow better together. The two-piece dress has come to prominence thanks to performers like Janet Jackson, Britney Spears and Shakira who constantly rock the bare-midriff style. Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus can often be seen on the red carpet wearing two-piece dresses. This fun and youthful trend borrows from the style of the mid 80's when celebrities were seen rocking this style using cut-off sweatshirts. Eventually, pants began to get lower and lower and shirts began to get higher. Pants and shirts were slowly but surely running away from each other, so to speak. When you begin your search for your two-piece dress, consider how your midsection looks. You don't want to be dancing while your belly button is hanging over your skirt. If your stomach is not as tight as you'd like, then consider choosing a corset top because they will hold you in better. Parents tend to be hesitant when it comes to the two piece dress because of the amount of skin being exposed but the newer two-piece dress styles tend to show less skin. They usually consist of a fitted top and long, flowy skirts. Prom goers are no longer only wearing long, ball gowns to proms; they are opting for a more glamorous and clubby feel. These kinds of dresses are easier to dance in and provide the wearer with a freer feeling. Ultimately, it's your prom night so you decide what type of footprint you want your presentation to leave.
Plus-Size Model Robyn Lawley Debuts A Swim Collection To Flatter Your Every Curve
When Ralph Lauren named Robyn Lawley as its first plus-size wedding dresses model, everyone was up in arms. To many she wasn��t ��plus-size enough�� �� being that Lawley stands at an Amazonian 6��2�� and wears a size 12 �� while others were excited to see a model above a size 0 or 2 featured in a Ralph Lauren advert at all. Regardless of the plus-size debate, we were thrilled to see another beautiful, curvier woman added to an otherwise thin lineup of fashion models. So, when Lawley announced she had designed a swim line specifically for the curvier body, we knew it would be a hit. While the line is initially launching in only sizes eight through 18, Lawley plans to extend the range both above and below those sizes, providing the collection is a success. With luxe, high-end fabric and gorgeous prints and colors, Lawley��s collection is sure to make a splash.

Juicy Couture Founders Want To Buy Back Their Brand
By Connie Wang
Though the brand �� Juicy Couture �� has made big leaps and bounds since its bedazzled bum days, it lacks the buzz that the original JC had back when it launched in 1997. Modernly louche, laid-back, yet wittily ostentatious, Juicy Couture was every PYT's obsession back in the early 2000s, under the guidance of founders Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash-Taylor. However, the founders sold the brand to Fifth & Pacific (then known as Liz Claiborne Inc.) in 2003 to help manage their debts and earn-out payments, and with the sale, the founders lost control over the business. Fifth & Pacific has been shopping around Juicy Couture in the last few months in order to help funnel money into expanding its Kate Spade endeavors, and Skaist-Levy and Nash-Taylor are reportedly bidding to buy back their company. With the aid of private equity firms, the duo are seeking to regain control of the shoes brand, which reported sales of an outstanding $498.6 million last year. In velour tracksuit terms, that's 2,543,877 pairs.

Fashion prom stresses impress people easily
Proms are such big part of any young girl's social life. That is why buying the perfect prom dresses are on every young woman's wish list.
The great thing about prom dress styles is that there are so many styles to choose from. Many of these girls can get inspiration form just about any runway, movie, magazine or celebrity. Even though this is the prom and you will do just about anything to have the most impressive dress at the event, you still need to choose a dress that suits your body type. If you are short, a knee-length prom dress can do you justice while taller slim girls look great in long or short cheap prom dresses. Luckily, there is an array of popular dresses, so the majority of girls find something more than suitable.
Bright colors and patterns are very popular amongst teens but many still prefer softer pastel tones. Strapless dresses look good with any body type, but a halter neck can also be very beautiful. Slits were very stylish in the early 1990��s, but today have fallen out of favor, and this is a style that should be avoided.
Before you shop for your prom dress, be sure to have you measurements-bust, hips and waist-handy since not all designers' size charts are the same. And know your body: Are you an H (not so curvy), an A (smaller on top), or an hourglass (curvy)? Then try on different styles to find the dress that will flatter your figure. Pay attention to the inexpensive prom dresses length, color, the material, neck line, sleeves and the way the dress falls on your body-you want to be comfortable, too.
