Little Vintage Dresses 
I am absolutely in love with these dresses. But not many people seem to wear them anymore , but as unlikely as it seems , they are not difficult to pull off! All you need to pull off this look properly , in  true vintage style , is the following five things .Enjoy Chums! 

1. A vintage Dress
There are many approaches you can take , but pick the one that is right for you.That suits your body shape, looks and most importantly : your personality!
You could pick 


A peter pan dress !

This is probably the easiest Vintage style dress to pull off. Suits most body types , and are available in many different colours ,from the bright and daring , to the cute and country : it can really fit around your personality. And they are very easy to dress up , or make casual.One things for sure , you will always look effortlessly glamorous. 

 Fiftees dresses!

These dresses are a tad harder to pull off .Wear them with confidence because in them you will look simply stunning.If you like making a big impression , then go for big , bold , bright flowery prints! If you want to wear a fiftees dress more casually, you could choose a more plain blue or black one. Strong , bold and beautiful ,these dresses sure do make you stand out in style.

Simple Vintage Chic Dresses

These dresses are so simple to wear.First of all , there are so many different styles you could choose , flowers , stripes , spots, patterned , plain. These dresses are best suited on people with pear shaped body types , or very thin frames. This shouldn't put you off trying them though , they can be very versatile.These dresses are best for casual events, but you could pull off a plain or flowery one for a semi-formal occasion.



2. A peppy lipstick! 
Preferably matte , a peppy lipstick can really help an outfit along, and especially a vintage outfit! Lipstick is quite the most important bit of makeup for this look. Bringing a dash of colour into the outfit. 

Red lipstick is the signature sign of vintage. Beautiful , elegant and fabulous. I reccomend you choose either the bright and bold red look , or the darker elegant version. Depending on your skin tone , pick as you wish. Both suit vintage dresses perfectly .

If you don't fancy rocking a red , you could also try a pale pastil pink ! Make sure that its light but also very obvious , as your trying to make an impact with your makeup.




3. The sixties eyeliner flick.
This eyeliner look is very easy to do , and best achieved with a gel or liquid liner. Many websites have tutorials were they can show you just how to rock that look.But my best tips are 
1. If you have very shaky hands , rest them on a table , or other surface
2. Start small and build up , as this makes it easier .
3. Make the line thicker as you go 
4.Point your brush/ pen/pencil up and gently flick it upwards
5.Try and make your eyes look as equal as possible.
6. Play around and experiment ! You don't always want to have the same flick. Try making it thicker , or curvier ,or longer. Play around until you find one that you love!
7. Look at celebrities for inspiration , or watch some tutorial videos. 


4. The hair !
If like me , you have quite voluminous  hair , this part is easy for you. If you don't , there are various different shampoos and hair products you can use to help add volume to your hair. For this look its simple : big hair ! This doesn't mean you have to have a lot of hair , people with shorter hair may actually have an easier job of it. Create the volume in what ever way you want to , hair styling products , shampoos, drying your hair differently , or using certain brushes .Then finish the look of simply with hairspray , to keep it all in place. Maybe add a flower ? Beautiful.

Other Vintage Hairstyles you could try 
- A beehive hairstyle ( one of my favorites) 
- a voluminous bob 
- bombshell hair 
- Bangs


5. The shoes 
And before all you girls start to worry , glancing around for your pair of heels that make your feet ache , remember that low heels are in for the new year ! And work perfectly with this look .You can of course still wear big heels , but its soo much easier just to opt for small heels. Go for plain shoes , as not to draw any attention away from your dress.

Enjoy Lots!

top 15 trends for 2013 !

              New years on its way! 

Thats its , 2012 is almost over, would you believe it ? I swear it has gone so quickly for me. But it has also been my hardest year for me. So a part of me is glad that its over. But ...watch should we expect from 2013 .As always, im one step ahead , getting all the news for the new year right here for you .Tut , i do spoil you all .

It seems this year as if we are backtracking , back to the simple designs that work so well.

TEN TRENDS FOR THE NEW YEAR 

1. TOP COLOUR IS EMERALD 

Emerald is the colour for the new year , expect clothes to be in that beautiful color , cant wait actually ! Its such a wonderful color , and works wonderfully with leggings - an old favorite 

2. BLACK AND WHITE CHECKS

Woohoo! The sixtees trend is back , and better than ever , with pretty black and white checkered jackets and skirts . Simple but ever so stylish.

3. MINIMALISTICS 

simple colors , and you know what that always brings : denim! Our old friend , we sure have missed lots of denim over this year , we have been more interested in colour jeans, or chinos , leather skirts .But i have so much denim that i cannot WAIT to wear .Yay! 

4. BRIGHT COLOURS FOR NIGHTWEAR

For nightwear , its still going to be simple. Expect blues and blacks .And also this fun colour : Orange .So its a mix of the simple with the eye catching. 

5. SUMMER STYLES 

Sunglasses are well on trend , all types , all with bright colors and designs.Simple tshirts with sayings written on them are in again , thats one trend i wont be a part of. But still bright blues and oranges are on the catwalk again! 

6. STRIPES 

Any color really , just lots and lots of stripes. I love this trend , and couldn't wait for it to appear again. Its so simple and classic. And such a staple , but also easy to wear! You can change them so they are edgy , soft , girly , tom boyish , anything you want at all! They are so versatile. Can't wait! 

7. EDGY LEATHER IS STILL IN! 

Im so happy. One trend I didn't want to let go of this year was the leather that was brought in in 2012. Don't lie, it made you feel powerful.Im so glad its back in.And its bringing its friend : Colored leather , could it be any better? 

8. INDIAN STYLE BEAUTY 

Dresses like sari's , bringing in bright colors like pink and bright blue , sparkles and lots of sequins. How beaautiful. Almost certain to make you feel wonderful.I can imagine those pretty dresses , wow.

9. THE SHORT- SUIT

Imagine this , a beautiful suit , but the bottom half is only shorts , may not be that wearable for everyday .But will be certain to make an impact. Not quite so wearable , but strong and edgy, can't wait to see the vogue magazines. 

10. SPORTY DRESSES 

These , are the real musthave of the new year , can you possible imagine? A new type of dress! That you can wear both as a night outfit , or for day. The best colors being red , black and white. Figure-hugging tops , with floaty floral skirts, an unbelievable combination!

11. FLAT AND LOW HEELS 

Yes , you did just read that right .LOW HEELS! Which means us girlies an actually walk for once! And walk in style , what an amazing trend. Beautiful shoes and feet that don't hurt! 

AND NOW FOR THE HAIR TRENDS....

12. BRAIDS 

Ahh braids , being able to go around all day , not having to worry about sorting out your hair again , because let's face it , it doesn't matter how messy your braid is.They always look beautiful .And they are going to be in for 2013 ! Side braids and individual braids are new too! 

13. PERFECT CURLS 

Better have your curling wands ready girls ! Next year calls for Perfectly curled hair , and wavy hairstyles .I think i just heard the sound of thousands of girls with curly hair squeal.Your in luck girlies. 

14. OMBRE COLORED HAIR

For those of us who don't speak "Fancy hair terms" that means to have different color highlights at the ends of your hair .Those girls , like me , who have naturally lighter hair at the bottom, are very very happy with this. But this trend can suit everyone! There is also the REVERSE OMBRE , meaning when you have a different color hair at the top of your head , which sounds strange but actually looks very beautiful  ( look at pictures of Beyonce and you will see what i mean) 4

15. BOLD HAIR COLOR , DIP DYED ENDS AND LITTLE DASHES OF COLOR

Now my lovelies , is the official time for a little bit of a color spurt. Did dyped ends and still going to be in ( thank goodness , i absolutely love them! ) and now the more dynamic look is in , dashes of colour in your hair , or "pops" of colour as they call them now .You dont have to go all out though , with bright colors .You could go for a more natural color , like a darker brown , or a blonde.. But one thing is for sure , bright colours are IN!

Thank you all so much for reading ! Feel free to comment and tell me what you think of the new trends. I would love to hear from you. Good luck , and have a wonderful 2013!
