There are some celebrities that just can’t help being stylish, whatever they’re up to.

1. Chilling out: Rachel Bilson
With her laid-back take on the latest trends, take inspiration from Rachel Bilson if you’re chilling out at home or going for a spot of shopping.
Hair
Rachel’s hair is lightly tousled and always natural in colour. Avoid straighteners for Rachel’s look and just use serum or pin back a few strands with Kirby grips.
Make-up
Her make-up is natural too, with a soft line of kohl pencil around the eyes. Lay off the heavy make-up for this daytime look.
Clothes
From teeny-weeny shorts paired with Chanel-style jackets to flowing dresses and strap tops, Rachel mixes things up with her wardrobe.
2. Day out: Pippa Middleton
She may have a sister who is never out of regal dresses, but Pippa has a more high-street look.
Hair
For this look regular trips to the hairdresser are a must. You won’t find Pippa’s hair full of split ends when she so often wears it loose.
Make-up
Pippa likes her bronzer, so make sure you look sun-kissed.
Clothes
Mostly dresses and jackets, Pippa’s style is great for changeable weather. Keep a pair of woolly tights in your bag in case it gets cold!

Katy is a party girl who loves dressing up and experimenting – a great style icon for a fun party.

Bold one-piece dresses and cartoon-like styling fit the bill for Katy. Get creative with your outfit!
4. Romantic date: Penelope Cruz
Penelope is passionate, beautiful and a great style inspiration for a date. Take a leaf out of her book to impress your next date, whether you meet them through friends or through free dating at eHarmony UK.
Hair
Get your tongs out to recreate her long waves – the ultimate romantic style.
Make-up
Cruz is not afraid to exaggerate her large eyes and lips.
Clothes
If you’ve been matched with an exciting new date after taking a free personality test with eHarmony and you really want to wow them when you meet up, go for a Penelope-style floor-length dress.
5. Night out: Cheryl Cole
She’s one-fifth of one of the world’s biggest girl bands and she knows how to dress for a night on the town.
Hair
Cheryl goes from bobs to waist-length styles several times a year. Use volume mousse by the bucket-load, whichever Cheryl era you decide upon.
Make-up
Cheryl is at the same end of the OTT spectrum as Katy Perry. Get your false eyelashes out to emulate her.
Clothes
Go all out with a prom-style mini dress.

Panda Nail Art

I am so proud of myself because finally, I was able to make my very first nail art! This is actually my first attempt. I so love it because it looks so cute. It is very easy to do. I was actually cutting my nail yesterday when I decided to play with those nail polish colors I saw on our divider. It made me even motivated when I saw a white and black nail polish colors. From that, I remembered the bubzbeauty’s tutorial I watched a couple of days ago. So, here’s my very own version of Panda Nail Art. I used Revlon light gold shimmery nail polish for my base color. White nail polish for the head and eyeball.Then black nail polish for the ears. eyes and nose.

Sorry for the low quality picture here. I just used my ipod to take this shot. I also processed it on photoshop that’s why the color is not that seen.

I know, bubzbeauty’s version is way better than mine. Still, I am so proud!

Elf Waterproof Pen Eyeliner

I bought my very first Pen eyeliner today. To be honest, it is really a pain on my part to put eyeliner on my lash line. My hand is so shaky and it makes the line messy. I am still on the process of practicing. Sometimes, I do it good and sometimes not.

While I was browsing for a good eyeliner a while ago, I was thinking twice whether to buy this pen eyeliner or the liquid eyeliner. I just remembered somebody told me that pen eyeliner is easier to handle. Also, I am taking into consideration buying the one on etude house. I don’t really know what to call it. It’s a liquid ink-like thing inside a small container with a brush. This brush will be the one that will help you stroke the black think on your lash line.

Contemporary Men’s Wedding Rings Designs for 2011

Traditionally, wedding rings were worn exclusively by women. These days, it is not altogether uncommon for men to wear their very own wedding ring to symbolize their union to their loved one.  Contemporary men’s wedding rings designs include cluster set wedding rings, tension wedding rings and fancy colored diamond encrusted bands.

Cluster wedding bands

Cluster set wedding bands feature a multitude of diamonds and precious gemstones set in a cluster, cleverly arranged in complex geometrical patterns. The cluster set wedding band is favored by customers who love a more dazzling, glamorous and eye catching ring. Cluster set men’s wedding bands are rather uncommon and are therefore valued for their unique aesthetics.

Tension set wedding bands

Tension set wedding bands are known for their contemporary, modern appearance. This wedding band style is favored by both men and women due to its versatility and incredible, yet tasteful look. Tension set wedding bands are perfect for men who are looking for a more modern diamond set band to mark their commitment.

Fancy colored diamond wedding bands

Wedding bands set with fancy colored diamonds are all the rage with customers who have their heart set on a fabulous, colorful wedding band. Fancy colored diamond wedding bands are a relatively new trend and are considered especially stylish and unique. The only drawback where these amazing diamond wedding bands are concerned is their expensive price tag as fancy colored diamonds are exceedingly rare and considered very valuable.

Daring Vs. Hyper

I am actually having hard time thinking of a good title for this post. Anyway, let us go with daring vs. hyper. I was a bit bored last night when I decided to play around with my sister’s make ups. (I hope she’ll not able to read this. lol) I used her Mac brushes, Mac bronzer, Mac highlighter, Pinkbox eye shadows, Ever Bilena eyeliner, The Body Shop lip gloss and a Maybelline liquid minerals foundation. Oh, I forgot what brand of lipstick I used there. I really like the color of the lipstick. It’s nude. It suites very well with my tan complexion. See the photo above? I am trying pretty hard to pose like a model!
