Emma Overload!

Whenever an award ceremony comes around, I look to see what Emma Watson is wearing.  The epitome of youth and class, she never fails to bring a radiant, elegant, and semi-conservative dress to the forefront of everyone’s attention. It’s just hit me however, that almost every dress has been almost an exact replica of the other!

She just wore this lovely mini-party dress to the MTV Movie Awards. Wild patterns seem to be her forte, because if you take a look at the 2012 MTV Movie Award dress, it is a very similar cut andneckline! We seem to have developed a bit of a comfort zone here..

When we go back even further to the 2012 People’s Choice award, we get the same feeling as before, chaotic pattern, conservative neckline and shorter hemline.

Then there’s the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards…

And the 2011 MTV Movie Awards…

Along with the 2011 Elle Style Awards.

See what I mean? This has been going on for three years! Although there’s nothing really wrong with it, I’d l just love to see her debut in something completely shocking and different.

I’d personally want to see her rock the thigh-high slit like Angelina Jolie. If you could style Emma, what would you want her next look to be?

Dark Demi

It seems that all the Disney starlets have an album dropping soon!

Selena just dropped her latest single “Come  And Get It” and we all know that Miley has joined the Twerk Team indefinitely with Snoop Dog  Lion. Demi has yet to drop Heart Attack, so in light of that, today we’re going to be focusing on her style.

What I love about Demi Lovato’s style is that it is more accessible. It has that bad-ass grunge aspect to it, but less so than Miley Cyrus. They both echo each other in their intensity, but Demi’s style seems to be a bit more relaxed. You are more likely to find a piece that Demi has worn before in the mainstream market and still be able to pay your rent.

For example, she just wore an all Topshop outfit on Jimmy Kimmel live. The black studded leather jacket is a staple piece which you’ll be able to wear with a combination of outfits, along with a classic black dress. If you follow Demi’s style, you’ll find that many of her pieces can be mixed and matched while still maintaining an edge, thanks to the all black color scheme that seems to be her fave. Black can most certainly be worn in Spring and Summer, so get out those leather jackets!

The Vampire Diaries - Candice Accola's hairstyle

This week we’re focusing on a little bit of Celeb beauty inspired by actress Candice Accola who plays Caroline Forbes on The Vampire Diaries! (Delena al the way people)

Her hair is always in those beautiful signature waves, so I was inspired to do a video tutorial on how to emulate this simply chic look. As Caroline is Miss Mystic Falls, I wouldn’t want her to catch me with a hair out of line… literally. So I’ve outlined the simple steps for you below.

Watch and enjoy! Be sure to comment on what character style you’d like me to do next from any show!

1. Start with your hair straight.
2. Use some protecting cream, I'm using Living Proof Style Extender for a soft hold.
3. Take small sections, wrap around the curling iron, hold for a few seconds (you don't want to wind up like THIS. Do this for your entire head.
4. Frame your bangs. Wrap them backwards around the curling iron.
5. Blend  your bangs and wave in with the rest of your hair

There you go!

Checks & Balances

I know I tweeted that I was going to make my next blog post about Miley Cyrus but I decided to switch it up a bit and go with the Gomez. As of late, her every day style has been very slouchy. Cute, but slouchy. 

She’s mastered the art of attempted disguise, all thanks to her trusty scarf collection.

The scarf look has definitely been her staple day-time piece as of late, along with the heart sunglasses.  I wouldn’t necessarily say she’s putting comfort over fashion, but there’s a definite style choice going on that is favoring comfort.

The key here is balance:

She’s all about showing off her legs, whether they’re covered, or uncovered, showing leg is the key. Leggings and skinnies work on colder days, but the shirt/dress trend is in for those with the figure for it. That upper middle thigh used to be scandalous territory. Now, like the Side Boob, it’s becoming bearable.

So, as we move into spring and that awkward time of year when it’s too hot for pants, but too chilly for shorts, keep the oversized scarf/skinny combo in mind and we’ll all make it to Summer.

Peek-a-Boob!

You can show top boob, under boob, half boob, and patch boob, but the second you show "side boob" the world goes crazy! What's the deal?

Both Emma Watson and Miley Cirus have been victims of the boob backlash. Cyrus rocked the side boob, all the while being called "dangerous", "daring", "risqué" and "edgy" - followed by some "Whoa there's". Her dress up style normally equals her street style in wow factor, so we can’t be surprised that she pushes the boundaries of fashion, considering she does it on a daily basis.

Cyrus chose Emilio Pucci for the 2013 Annual Grammy Awards-Pre-Grammy Gala and she always owns the looks the looks she chooses to wear. 

Interestingly enough, Katy Perry can wear this little green Gucci number and the world praises her for her boobs! (Can't blame them though..)

Point is, we have to stop giving the side boob a bad rep! They want to see the sun too.

So ladies,  bear those boobs and don’t back down!
