In the 20th century, the marketing of gender stereotypes meant that the so-called tomboys were a bunch of women against their own gender. There’s now a voice to be heard about the subject – actually to be read. Tomboy Style: Beyond the Boundaries of Fashion, by Lizzie Garrett Mettler. This book celebrates the opposite of any stereotype: it’s not against any gender, but meant to be inspired by the look, spirit, audacity and character of the tomboy style and its “creators”.
Don’t you love it when you give him a kiss on the cheek and find it smooth? And you boys, don’t you want to avoid irritations after shaving? This article is all about skin care. Knowing which product is suitable for you and using it right, is going to make your life easier.
Silky skin is the goal of many of us, isn’t it? I bet so! “Curiosity killed the cat” is the saying, but not in this case 🙂 True I am always testing products out of curiosity or gullibility, but among the products I test there is always a good surprise or a good recommendation that proves to be right. This is the case of the two products shown here today, by Origins: A Perfect World, antioxidant cleanser with white tea and Make a Difference, skin rejuvenating treatment lotion.
The first one is a pearly liquid soap and it really cleans your face, leaving a fresh and, as said before, silky sensation. The same sensation you will have after using the complementary lotion. You can use both alone, not needing to have the combined steps. I confess I use the liquid soap more.
Always looking for a beauty novelty, some time ago I read about the “fantastic” Clinique “translucent” powder. Well, I ran to the closest beauty shop and had to face not one, but three novelties by Clinique. There were three new powders, each one promising different “miracles”, and I didn’t know which one to choose, the one that would be the best for me. As it normally happens, I bought the three. And ended up convinced that the one I really wanted – the translucent one, actually called Invisible Blend – was really the best. But you know what, I don’t regret having the three, cause otherwise how could I know which was the perfect one for my skin? Besides, I love Clinique and I knew they would all be OK.
No matter what our age is, we should all look after ourselves. We have to take care of our skin, using the right products, without exaggerations. Our eyes need intensive care but there is a myth, that only older women have to do that. There aren’t only dark circles that need to be taken care of; there are also fine lines and irritations in which we need to pay attention. Don’t forget the hydration, which has to be the most important step before we go to sleep and every morning when we wake up. We searched and found suitable products for every need and we’ll show them below in order to help you find the one for you.
Olympia Le-Tan designs amazing embroidered clutches, that recreate covers of books. They have been spotted on red carpets through Michelle Williams, Natalie Portman and Tilda Swinton, among others. She is also a designer of really fabulous and unexpected pieces of clothing. The clutches and bags, though, are really outstanding accessories – and also high quality profile. They are intricately handcrafted in France from red cotton-canvas with a high-shine gold frame, according to Net-a-porter. They are full lined in Liberty-print poplin and really handy is the internal patch pocket to hold cards. Some of the clutches that can be found on the sites are exclusive to each of the stores, as you can see below. They are also limited to only a few editions, like The Lure of Long Beach, for example, a rare volume from 1936 that traces the history of the American island.
I am a bit skeptical about some products, primers, for example. Somehow I find that the cosmetic industry tries to create new products, just because of the need of permanent innovation, to grab consumer’s attention. And com’on, we know that most of us would be curious and would like to try new things – so the industry keeps on doing it, launching products that are not necessary, but they know they will make profit.
This is not the case of POREfessional, from Benefit Cosmetics! It works!
When we think of Ferragamo, we think of shoes, mainly. The brand certainly has carved its name with excellent quality shoes, bags, scarves and more. But Ferragamo is also a synonym of hospitality – Salvatore Ferragamo founded a chain of hotels in Italy, where you will feel really special!
So we are wearing a black outfit that looks “too” normal and we want to spice it up. Or we are just quirky girls and love to wear creative items. Whichever the answer, these are the clutches that can make an outfit look really outstanding in no time!
