The place to be, Fifth Avenue.


Fifth Avenue is a major thoroughfare in the center of Manhanttan in New York City. Between 34th street and 59th street, it is also one of the premier shopping streets in the world, often compared to London, Paris, Tokyo, and Milan. Fifth Avenue serves as a symbol of wealthy New York. The wonderful, amazing street was made in 1862 by the wealthy people of New York. Between 34th street and 60th street, Fifth Avenue is lined with luxury retail stores, which include Tiffany Co.,Cartier SA, Lord & Taylor, Burberry, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Prada, BVLGARI, Armani Exchange, Coach Inc., Escada, Christian Dior, Juicy Couture, Lacoste, Fendi, Versace, Kenneth Cole, and Saks Fifth Avenue. I have experienced the world, my life in just one street. What have you experienced in your life as cool as mine?

Put your shutter shades on.


Today is one of my personal favorite days of the week; Wednesday. At our local Cypress Bay every wednesday, or as we like to call it "shades wednesday", is when the whole population is showing off their shades, so our pupils within the eye doesn't get damaged (Yeah, that's a great joke). I just recently bought two pair of sunglasses for this fabulous event. But of course ladies, how can we forget, spring break is almost here and you know what that means- OUR LONG SUNNY DAYS IN THE BEACH!! One of the most important accessories to go with our fun in the sun and to protect us from dangerous sun rays that can ruin our beautiful eyes. I personally love the brands Ray Ban and Diesel, a touch of the classic oldies. Ray Bans never get old and Diesel are bold and dynamic. They're always in trend. What's your choice of shades, modern big or classic oldies?

Beauty Tip of the Day


Family Secret.

Crack a few eggs and beat them together with mayo and butter in a bowl. Before shampooing, massage the eggs through your hair. Leave for 10-15 minutes before rinsing them out thoroughly. The eggs, surprisingly enough, help repair and strengthen your hair follicles. You will get silky hair with great body.

Spring: TREND REPORT!


Spring is coming up in a month or two and no more need big furry jacket with gloves and scarves. Its time for a cool new look. But how do you know which spring trends to try and which ones are the huge no-no's? Thats why I'm here..duh! This bright new beautiful season screams for boyish preppy, new nautical, bright florals, pretty pales, tribal prints, and some bold patterns. Boyish preppy: A bright mini skirt and tights gives the oxford-and-blazer a girly touch. New nautical: Go for the modern shapes (wide tops, short shorts) so you don't look like Popeye. :/ Eww. Bright florals: A solid piece (such as a bright yellow jacket) makes the pattern pop and keeps it from looking wallpapery. Pretty pales: White jeans always make a yellow top and ribbon belt a less precious. Tribal prints: Tons of wooden jewelry add to the tribal effect. Bold patterns: Mix prints; Just make sure they share a common color.

Can you say...Coco Chanel


As if you already know, fashion has been the peanut butter to my jelly ever since I can remember. All of THIS started when I was introduced and discovered the magnificant creation of Chanel. Gabrielle Chanel, or well known as Coco Chanel, was one of the first fashion designers in Paris. Replacing the breathtaking (literally) corsets, with comfort and casual elegance.

She was born in 1883 in Saumur, France - her mother worked in the poorhouse where Coco was born. She died when Coco was at the age of 6, leaving her father with five children whom he abandoned to the care of relatives. She adopted the name "Coco" during a brief career as a cafe and concert singers from 1905-1908.

She started a little business, Chanel, with two men in Paris in 1910. Her created simple hats and its became very popular. Following her simple hats, she developed a trend, the "little boy" look. Chanel herself dressed in mannish clothes, and adapted the fashion which women found quite liberating. A fierce little woman who left the world on January 10, 1971. This woman has become a worldwide icon. From Chanel No.5 to her simple little black dress. We will always remember that petite, fierce woman with the clean cut elegance.

Natural Exfoliater


WHO EVER KNOW?
A beauty tip from your's truely. This is a great natural exfoliating treatment that you can make at home. Take a packet of sugar (raw sugar works the best), add a couple drops of olive oil to make it easier to spread, then gently rub it into the creases of your face.
