The Eyes Have It

Thursday, January 24th, 2013

Made a trip to the salon. Not for a blow dry or hair cut. Just to get eye lash extensions which to my suprise they turned out

looking amazing! Completely worth my while as much as the cost for fuller, thicker, long batty lashes. It took about 2 hrs, as I laid comfy on the table listening to the relaxing sounds of worship music. The lashes do last well over 2 weeks if you care for them as instructed. For a more dramatic look, applying mascara is OK on the upper part of the lash.
Could eyelash extensions be another way to update your style? Yes it is. Anything that enhances your overall appearance.

FYI: raw images, no makeup added, no filters, no photo-shop
Keep in mind, lash extensions must be applied correctly by a professional expert in order to have a yours truly, natural effect.
Thank You Tareon Alvarez.

Share on myspace Share on google Share on twitter

The most traveled holiday of the year in America is back. Memorial Day weekend gives us an extra day off to shop, relax, and play. However, I decided to create and share sets with the idea of resort style in mind.

Though we may not all be at a resort but you can certainly dress and feel like you are.

High waist shorts in batik print for an extra dose of glam. Taking on the warm weather
in a very elegant form.

A bright maxi with flow and drape over your self is breezy, comfortable and does not cease to be dashing
anywhere you go even when paired with flat sandals.

Thursday, May 17th, 2012

Share on myspace Share on google Share on twitter

Summer sun rays have many looking for options to stay in the shade, especially on occasions like outdoor weddings, a special brunch, showers, and more.

Recently, I styled someone attending the Kentucky Derby, this fab young lady took the liberty of sending me photos of beautiful high fashion hats she spotted during the races. I myself would totally dare to wear them. How about you?

Noticeably blue flower accent; next to her a green cloche style. Both hats following spring trends.

Uber large bow grabs attention; Chic yet bold. Have to admire this hat!

Retro with polka-dot pattern, brings vintage up-to-date.

Styled by yours truly for the Kentucky Derby in her own hat creation.
If curious about what to wear with hats like the ones seen above. Comment below!

3 Tips For Getting Celebrity Like Hair

Tuesday, November 15th, 2011

Truly I share, that my hair is precious to me. One of those things you just have to treasure and one of those things that will make you smile when it looks amazing. But, we know that getting the same hair styles as celebrities can be difficult. Well I have some ideas of how to get that look.

On a recent trip to do some maintenance on my hair I visited a familiar and friendly place known as Salon Alvarez. Owned by professional hair stylist Tareon Alvarez, this salon was built on hard work, passion and drive. Now in business for 7 years, it’s a popular beauty spot for the ladies in the South Tampa area.

Once I sat down, Tareon quickly makes an assessment on the needs of my hair since I last visited a salon. She then proceeded to start with combing thru a Mizani pre-scalp care treatment ending with a soothing massage, all in one. During the entire visit, I received an upload of hair education 101 when I learned some surprisingly great tips on maintaining my own hair. After a wash and trim, I got a superb blow dry touched up by a titanium plated flat iron which allows for the shine to lock into the hair. Finishing with the best products like Deem Organic Leave-in treatment containing argan oil.

Here are the 3 Tips I was given to get that celebrity style:

Did you know? You loose an average of 40 to 100 hairs per day. Well that solves my own personal mystery on the small pile of hair every time I brush.

2
Don’t cross your legs during a hair cut, it can change the entire shape of your cut. Then you won’t be happy with the results.

3
Get the wave or curl in your hair like Kim Kardashian by pin curling your hair after straightening.
Leave them in while you dress up and do your make up, feel free to add a setting spray, remove the pins last before you step out. You should end up with that sultry hairdo.

Needless to say, I left feeling like a million! realizing that pretty hair equals a great attitude.

Got Texture?

Monday, November 14th, 2011

Another fun & fashion forward nail trend to be tried. Certainly a change from the usual polish, it’s an easy way to give your overall style a little edge. So don’t hesitate to try textured nails in the winter season for a fun holiday party. Take a closer look to see what I mean.

I chose to get the texture on my thumbnails only, but you can opt for more if you feel like living on your wilder side.

This service is not commonly offered at regular nail salons or spas.

Summer Hair Trend by LW Hair Studio & Spa

Saturday, July 16th, 2011

I love to try the latest hair styling trends as much as the next long-haired girl. But, sometimes I just can’t do it on my own. A french braid that wraps around the entire crown of your head was one of those I couldn’t master without assistance, so I turned to a local salon and expressed my dire need to have the braid in combination with a dress I was going to wear out to a fashion show that evening. We all know, a fashionista such as myself always has to look the part especially when asked to MC the show.

Arriving at the LW Hair Studio & Spa, I immediately felt at ease with my hair in the hands of owner Laurie Weber. After describing the braided hairstyle I saw on Glamour magazine, there was no doubt she could make it happen.

For 2 1/2 years Laurie has built her salon into one of the most saught after in Brandon when she took the challenge of creating her own business in the midst of a recession, and a major setback in her own personal life. Despite it all, Laurie continues to push forward, living the dream to be self-employed. If that’s not all, she has also partnered with the Woman’s Resource Center of Tampa Bay to contribute to the Dress For Success program.

The LW Hair Studio & Spa carries the Scruples hair products with the #1 rated hair coloring system in the country. Note, the Scruples line is salon exclusive and will not be seen in any regular store shelf. In addition, LW keeps up with the trends yet setting their own by adding Bling Strands which has been a hit for girls of all ages who have come in to have them placed for fun, special events, and a cool start of a new year in school.

I got lots of compliments on my braid that night plus my ensemble turned out fantastic! Thanks to Laurie!

How To Look Great In Your Swimwear

Tuesday, June 21st, 2011

Last Friday June 16th, 2011 I had the pleasure of showing a style/fashion segment on Good Day Tampa Bay, Fox 13. Needless to say this was a catapult for my styling career. I got the call 9 days prior when the producer asked me if I can plan a segment to show how moms can look great in their swimwear when going to the beach. So I immediately began calling on models who were more than just models, but also moms. Landing 3 out of 4 was not so bad, considering we only had 6 minutes in this segment to show the entire city that mothers don’t have to look drab at the beach or the pool, with kids in tow for that matter.

How hard could it be to find swimwear in Florida? a place where going to the beach is just part of our lifestyle? Not too hard, when the store Everything But Water in Tampa’s International Plaza graciously allowed me to pull their best swimwear. If that wasn’t enough The Pink Palm was also kind enough to let me use their Lilly Pulitzer and LaCoste pieces for the show.

Finally, here is the end result, which I believe turned out fabulous and I couldn’t have done it without the models, makeup artist and my assistant. Watch the segment and get on board with looking gorgeous whether you’re going on vacation, or just a day at the beach.

Everything But Water also provides guidance for shopping by fit/body type on their website plus “free shipping” on all orders

For beautiful summer clothing, accesories, and swimwear
