Fashion Designer, choosing your Stylist

Written on August 14, 2008 – 7:33 am | by dodo

Look for a stylist who falls somewhere between the bland, uninspired yes-person who will do whatever you tell him/her to do without offering constructive advice, and the dictatorial hairdresser who insists on creating whatever he/she wants with little if any involvement from you. The best hairdressers are sympathetic as well as creative. They need to listen to what you envisage before telling you what’s possible. Read the rest of this entry »

Vivid Hair Colour, tips for Cosmetic colouring and protecting your Hair

Written on August 14, 2008 – 7:25 am | by dodo

Today women have a multitude of choices for treatments to enhance their own natural hair colour. And why not? In Britain, where regular sunshine is in short supply, many natural blondes can look rather muddy and lifeless unless they highlight their hair. But any CMB seasonal type can colour her hair provided she follows guidelines that will ensure best results. Should you go too far with a new hair colour you can weaken the effect of your Seasonal Palette. I’m not saying don’t ever try something different, just beware that you may need to adjust your seasonal colours if you do so. Read the rest of this entry »

The Angular Woman’s Clothes Options

Written on August 13, 2008 – 2:31 am | by dodo

Now let’s consider a woman who has a straight, angular body. She wants to change her look, and goes shopping for a dress to go under some of her jackets. After some deliberation, she buys a silk one with a gathered waist. Now, no matter how much she has spent on the dress, it will look inexpensive and unsuccessful on her because such a soft fabric does not compliment her straight body. She would look much more interesting in a tightly woven material, such as a silk-linen blend or fine wool crepe. Also, identifying a waistline which, in essence, she doesn’t have doesn’t do her figure justice. A better choice would be a chemise style or a coat- dress, with no waist emphasis.

Now let’s look in more detail at very common figure problems. The key to a terrific look, whatever your body shape, is to be in harmony with yourself and to aim for a balanced look.

Hair, your Growing Glory

Written on August 11, 2008 – 10:23 pm | by dodo

Hair is something women universally complain about. ‘If only it were different colour/had curls/was straight/thicker/or shiny.’ We have all had the experience of the disaster cut, the one that made you look like you were wearing somebody else’s hair. You wondered how you could possible live with it. That whimsical ‘new look’ takes months to grow back into something more recognizable, more comforting, more you. Read the rest of this entry »

Makeup Polishes Tips, step by step (4-7)

Step 4: Blusher

Blusher enhances your bone structure and gives you a natural healthy glow; that is, if you choose the right shade.

Powder blushers are longer lasting than cream. But if you find they ‘disappear’ on you, try using a cream blusher after foundation (before powder), then dust with a powder blusher to enhance the colour and your chances of it lasting longer. Read the rest of this entry »

Tips for Dressing for Television

Written on August 5, 2008 – 12:49 pm | by dodo

The prospect of appearing on television can be very daunting. The newsreaders with whom we are so familiar make it look very easy when in reality it is not. If we watch news interviews or panel discussions with amateurs (much like ourselves), we know how badly people can come across and how their appearance can let them down. It’s very difficult to listen to someone who is wearing bright lipstick, a loud scarf, a flashy necklace, or whose hair is too fussy. All we do is watch the lips, the clothes, or the hair and are too distracted to actually listen to what is being said. Read the rest of this entry »
