Sunglass fashion,

Sunglasses, the Ultimate accessory.
But only when worn right...
Heres some fail proof tips to make sure you have the right sunglasses for you this Summer.

Long face: 
Think Uma Thurman, Sarah Jessica Parker.
Avoid- Wraparound styles, they will elongate your face even more!
Heavy frames with a bold or strong top light are great as they will add width to your face.
Your best shape- Butterfly Sunglasses.



Round face:
Think Renee Zellwegar, Kira Knightley.
Avoid- large circular styles which will further widen your face.
Frames that are as wide or wider then the widest part of your face are the best. 
Your best shape- Cat eyes or anything oversized.



Heart Shaped face:
Think Reese Witherspoon, Hilary duff
Avoid-styles with a broad frames, they will elongate your chin.
Frames that are smaller or as wide as your face are best.
Your best shape- Oval or rounded lenses.



Square face:
Think Demi  moore, Angelina Jolie.
Avoid- squared or pointed frames
Frames with curved rims will help soften your jaw.
Your best shape- aviators

Love,

Style Crush; Jennifer Love Hewitt.




Jennifer love hewitt...


She is always well put together and classy,
But still dressed for comfort.
it's a simple mix of elegance & sophistication with a touch modesty!
Things your looking for to re-create this look:
  • Empire lines,
  • Full skirts & dresses.
  • everything to sit on, below or just above your knee...
  • boot cut jeans.
  • tailored blazers & pants.
  • don't be afraid of high neck lines.
  • garments that create an hourglass figure-Basically tight & fitted at the bust to the waist, loose from waist.
Are you a fan of jen's style?
 love,

..And...GO!

Danimezza is one smart lady.
She has fun ideas too-
"Imagine you have the chance to win your entire online shopping cart but you only had 5 minutes to fill it. Where would you shop? What would you buy? How quick could you be?
5 minutes, your favorite store, imaginary money and... GO!!!"
First.....Say hypothetically i have this wallet full of cash and i need to spend it before it all explodes.... 
I'm off to City Chic. 
(linkid link.) 
Why? Cause i know i can walk in there and find at least 5-6 beautiful things i need there on the spot.
The other reason?....to tell you the truth I have two problems when it comes to shopping. 
My boobs & my legs. 
Boobs; I inherited, Legs; I used to compete in Swimming for my state- so they aren't going anywhere.
But at City Chic- i don't have to remember to wear a minimizer bra when i go shopping there,
And even the XS jeans are too big for me.
It's like walking into heaven!!!.. 

So i too timed myself & went shopping...





 
1.MILITARY DAY DRESS
So cute with its zipper detail.Perfect over swimmers at the beach!
2.LACE PANEL BENGALINE SKIRT
I really need a new business skirt, And the lace paneling is a cute touch.
easily translated to night wear too! 
3.FRILL HEM W BELT JKT 
This jacket is so sweet. i just couldn't pretend to resist. ;]
4.PIPING PIN UP DRESS 
I have this dress on layby! 
5.CHIFFON ROSE DREAM MAXI DRESS
How pretty is this maxi? Loving the floral detail.
6.OFF SHOULDER LACE TRIM SHIRT
This is my idea of the perfect top. I'd be wearing this 24/7 
7.SPOT BOW CHIFFON DRESS 
Fun, light & sweet, that belt can do wonders for your waist.
8.CHIFFON PRETTY FRILLY DRESS 
I'm in love with this dress!!! its so cute and very lady like. 
(added at 4mins and 57secs...proud?)


 
...Okay, *Calculates*...
Only like, $1399.35 later...
Did we have a limit?...

Want to play along?...Head to Danimezza for the 411! 
(please let me know if this font is to hard to read... =D )

Aussie Polly

The Aussie chick behind the game- Danimezza
This weeks theme-

aussie day


I have to admit that im not patriotic when it comes to Australia Day.
I'll have a BBQ and watch the fire works but i don't wear, fake tattoo, or  carry the Aussie flag on me....ever.

This is what i wore yesterday; we had a BBQ at a friends with some good Aussie music
(Keith Urban) and some yummy snags! lol
(Note: that is as Aussie as i get!^^^)

I love my 3/4 denims..they are perfect for the hot weather. 
I teamed it with a simple loose fitting singlet and some breezy flat sandals
( i wish i could own these LANVIN Flip-flops )
Make-up i kept simple with sunscreen, lip gloss & mascara.
I kept my jewelry the same- only wearing a simple necklace.
Sun protection goes hand in hand with this day and this country so i made sure i had my cute beach hat and favorite sunnies with me!
Im not a fan of luging around a huge bag around in the heat so i love my little X-shoulder bags,
they are perfect for holding the essentials and still very stylish! =D
So how was your Bogan Australia day? 
are you sunburnt?
love,

Style Crush; Mischa Barton

I am obsessed with The O.C.
It started my DVD nation collection.
and it spawned 'Laguna Beach' which gave me the world Lauren conrad.
So to me The O.C is like Genesis!

I idolised Marissa on the show as she was so much like me.
But In real life, Mischa is just as stylish.  







Eclectic..
...Is the only word i can find to describe her style.
It's original, often dark and different but it works.
I wish i could get away with wearing even half the things she does,
but this woman can wear anything with those long legs.

Mischa isn't afraid to mix styles and change it up a bit,
nor is she worried about whats in trend. 
She has a style of her own that no body works like her,
which is Inspiring if you ask me.

 So who's style do you like better,
Marissa Or Mischa?
Or are you a fan of both?


love,

Style Crush; Emma Stone.

I love Emma Stone.
She is so damn cute it's impossible not to like her, team that with her acting,
& her causal sense of style and you have this weeks style crush!

Emma's wardrobe is the definition of the 'night to day' transformation that so many of us want,
And she makes look so damn easy.
(excuse the pun)
Loving this look!!!!




Emmas look is super easy to re-create and works on two basic elements.
One- block colours.
two-comfort.
nothings to tight or to short. 
Just simple easy staple pieces;

again
Blond or Red?...


es
love,

Polly kills & bows

The kick ass chick behind the idea-Danimezza.
This weeks theme:

Assissin

...The Palace was engulfed in ashes and flames,
But Polly walked out unscathed and in triumph as she slid her YSL sunglasses over her nose, the last little present she's left for Miss Unfashionable went off in the background.
Polly's slick patent heels took her further and further away from the scene of her crime.
Lucky she hadn't ruined her perfect panel dress or smudged her red lipstick & liquid liner,
That would have been a crime in & of itself!!!
Polly opened her favorite patent clutch and  pulled out the Gun she'd used to kill Miss Unfashionable sidekick, (volume mascara can get you anywhere) and threw it into the bushes  that lined the The Palace.
Thank god she brought those bowed gloves with her the last thing she need was evidence against her.
Polly then lit up a cigarette and walked out the big metal gates.
She had competed her mission and her client would be happy...Heck Polly was proud of her self.. If only she knew her real name...

hehehe
btw

A couple of weeks back Danimezza ran a competition.
And she gave away two beautiful necklaces.
Guess who won one:


Thanks Dannimezza!!
I literally screamed when i saw the package!
I Love it!!!!

so.....
What do you think of Polly this week?
&
Like my necklace?
lol

love.

Golden fashion.

The 68th Annual Golden Globes was on last night,
It's always the First party of the awards season, and the Fashion is always stunning.
( in a good and bad way)
 
So heres my favorites of the night;;

 Carrie Underwood-This is my Favorite!!!
Carrie dazzled in this nude crystallized Badgley Mischka Couture gown 
& accessorized with a Swarovski clutch.
Carrie teamed my the dream dress with princess up do and smoky eye make-up
A-maz-ing! 
*hails stylist*

Eva Longoria- I love this simple black Zac Posen gown.
The neckline, capped sleeves,clinch waist, mermaid skirt.
*siigh* 
Only adding a simple black clutch and small drop earrings
It's just stunning!
(Dont even talk to me about the fashion blunder in the background or i might cry!)


Mila Kunis- This stunning emerald Vera Wang gown looked amazing on Mila. 
Her stylist did well to not over crowd the dress's detailed sleeve- using simple hair & make up.

 Olivia Wilde- Stayed to her Princess crown (Yes she is a real on! *dreams*) in this gorgeous gradient Marchesa.gown. 
She too keeping the dress the focus, with simple hair and make up.
( Personally i think its a little to simple for the GG's but i <3 the dress! )

Who was you favorite?
(out of these or another star & why =])
love,
