Love The Look!: It's Electric Blue Baby

Singer/rapper Eve above rocks the electric blue look! It's super fun makeup that would be great for going to a club or a fun photoshoot! Looks cute and is easy to do, want to know how?
How to get the look:

• Face- Dewy or matte foundation it's all up to what you prefer!
• Cheeks- Eve has on a pretty pink blush accentuating her cheekbones but if you don't want to go too dramatic then opt for a peachy-golden blush instead
• Eyes- This part is simple, take an electric blue or royal blue eyeshadow and apply on your upper eye-lids and the outer third of  your  lower lashline (this would be the most flattering way to apply the colour to not go overboard).For a pop of brightness add a shimmery highlight colour to the inner corners of your eyes, this helps accentuate and 'pretty-up' the eyes. Eve seems to have a black eyeshadow on the outer third of her crease and upper eyelid and outer third of her lower lashline. Add some black eyeliner and black mascara and voila!
• Lips- To counteract the drama of the eyes apply a pretty pink or peach lipstick and top with gloss and your done!

(p.s wondering why Eve's makeup focused on the outer third of her eyes? It's a common trick used to accentuate the eyes and make it appear more almond or cat-like!)

Style Love!: Preppy Casual with Ashlee Olsen!

Effortless, sophisticated, preppy & perfectly casual. Ashlee Olsen totally rocks the "low maintenance" look! Pair this look with tousled beach waves and natural makeup. Ashlee's style tends to be more casual and minimalistic than Mary-Kate's but nevertheless I am a big fan of both sisters' style!

Tips for the look:

• Sunglasses: Preferrably black wayfarers!
• Button down shirt: Unbutton a few buttons for a sexy and effortless look & tuck into jeans
• Skinny jeans: Comfort is key, so throw on your favourite pair of dark blue or black skinny jeans!
• Shoes: Gladiator wedges would be perfect for the look but any strappy wedge heels would be fab as well!
• Gold wrist accesory: Throw on a gold watch or bracelet and voila!

Hot Hair!: Braided Ponytail!

I am really liking the braided ponytail at the moment! I think it looks super cute and pretty. Sorry the picture above isn't of the best quality but as you can see that the scene is from Gossip Girl, where Serena (Blake Lively) on the right, is rocking the look. The great thing is that it is super easy and can be done in minutes! Below I've attached a youtube link which will show you how to do it step by step, but for the basic how-to for the look;

How to get the look:

1. Pull your hair into a high ponytail and secure with an elastic
2. Braid your ponytail (you can braid it halfway or all the way, it's all up to you!) and secure with an elastic

Love the Look!: Bombshell Hair & Sweetie Pie Makeup!

My absolute favourite look from this year's Video Music Awards was definitely Selena Gomez! I think she looks absolutely gorgeous! Her Bridgitte Bardot-esque bombshell hair, diffused soft smokey eye and pink lips, I love it! This look would definitely be flattering on anybody!

Tips for the look:

• Hair: Leave out two large-ish pieces of your bangs, then wrap around the outside of your curling iron making sure to curl away from your face (as this is more flattering). Mould it with your fingers to make sure you get that "swoosh" Selena has in the photo above. Then twist once or twice sections of hair before pinning them back to get the texture in the picture above.
• Eyes: Apply some neutral beige to the lids. Then grab an angled eyeshadow brush, dampen it and then dip it into a black eyeshadow (use grey if you prefer a softer look) then line the top lashline, and outer third of your bottom lashline. Line your waterline with a black eyeliner and then smudge it out. Curl eyelashes and apply a few coats of mascara .
• Lips: Apply a peachy-nude-pink lipstick and matching gloss!

Style Love!: Flirty Floral with Aly Michalka!

The birds are chirping outside & the sun is shining for all you girls that get to get all dressed up for spring. If you think like me Spring = Floral. Aly Michalka (above right) is wearing a floral dress that would look flattering on everyone. See how it kind of looks like a bustier on top? It would look great on anyone!

Tips for this look:

• By layering necklaces like Aly did, it adds a boho appeal which I personally think is gorgeous.

Hot Hair!: A Pretty Updo with Kim Kardashian!

This updo is cute, casual and super easy to do! Adding a headband like Kim Kardashian did in the picture above also adds a cute detail. In my opinion, the updo looks somewhere in between grecian goddess and ballerina babe.

Tips for the look:

• For curly hair: If you already have curly or wavy hair just make a messy bun quite high up on your head and then add a headband similar to the one Kim has.
• For straight/wavy hair: Curl your hair beforehand, spritz with hairspray, make a messy bun quite high up on your head and add a headband!

Style Love!: Ballerina Babe!

I love the Ballerina look! It's cute and adorable and yet, your upper body is highlighted in a flattering and elegant way. The image above is a wearable and toned down version of the look which you can wear to a party!

Tips for this look:

• Wear a loose or low cut singlet/tank-top and a low key tutu-esque skirt, with heels or ballet flats.
• Wear minimal jewellery, such as diamond studs or not jewellery at all in order to create ballerina elegance.
•  Hair can be tied into a messy or neat ballerina bun, which will allow all the focus to be on your pretty face!

Tips for the makeup:

• Glowing skin and defined cheekbones: Achieve this by using a tinted or glow-enhancing foundation and bronzer to highlight the cheekbones. Using a highlighter on the top of your cheekbones, down the nose and underneath the brow bone will enhance your natural glow!
• Natural, elegant eyes: A soft natural eye can be achieved using a light brown matte eyeshadow on the lids and lashings of mascara.
•  Gorgeous effortless lips: By using a matte lipstick (the model above is wearing a matte tomato red and it looks fab!) , and pairing it with natural eye makeup, makes for a gorgeous and not too over-the-top look.

Girl of the Moment!: Whitney Port!

If you are a fan of The City or The Hills, then you know this Girl of the Moment! I love Whitney Port's girl-next-door vibe, which automatically makes me want to be her friend! Her tousled golden locks, mega-watt smile and natural eye makeup all add to her laid-back appeal. She is always fashionable and I especially love her fashion line, Whitney Eve. (I am yet to fly to America and raid Macy's to get my hands on it!) If you are looking for a natural, effortless and approachable look then Whitney's the woman to copy!
