TREND REPORT: THE RING FINGER NAIL POLISH TREND

Many stars like Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens and Miley Cyrus have been spotted rocking the 'ring finger nail trend' on the red carpet. Basically, the ring finger nail trend is when you paint your ring finger a different nail color than the rest of your nails. I don't really know the real reason why people are starting to do this, but my interpretation of it is that maybe since the ring finger has a different nail color, people tend to look at it more and it 'emphasizes' your ring. Which I think is a really cool idea. My sister and I decided to try it out, so we bought a few bottles of nail polish and... tried it out.  She got a pink shade for her ring finger and a bright yellow shade for the rest of her nails. As for me, I used the same pink my sister used on my ring finger and a kind of teal shade for the rest of my nails.

I applied only a coat on each nail. Both nailpolishes are from Caronia. For a local brand, they are pretty pigmented nail polishes, especially the teal one, which is called 'On The Go' and the pink one is called 'Baby Pink'. Both nail polishes have no shimmer. Visit Caronia here

TREND REPORT: PASTEL JEANS

I love pastel colors, I think they add a nice feminine touch to any outfit. A great way to incorporate pastel into a look is by wearing jeans in a lovely Easter Egg shade.

Check out some examples below:

TREND REPORT : PETER PAN COLLARS

The Peter Pan Collar was named after the collar of the costume worn by actress Maude Adams when she played the role of Peter Pan in 1905. Since then, the Peter Pan Collar has been considered a fashion item. It is mostly associated with little girls' dresses and may also be a detachable accessory worn around the neck.

I'm currently in love with the Peter Pan Collar. I think it's really cute and girly. The whole world of fashion is obsessed with it too.

Stars spotted rocking the Peter Pan Collar include Alexa Chung, Emma Watson and English television presenter, Caroline Flack. 

Happy April Fool's Day!  :) xx

MAD HATTER: GIGI BURRIS

Ever since the Royal Wedding, where all the guests were spotted in their unique Philip Treacy hats, everyone has become hat-crazy. Gigi Burris is a hat maker, whose hat designs attract a younger generation of fashionistas and are seen on runways and worn by some of the most influential people in the world today. Some stars seen working the trend, include Lady Gaga and Rihanna, who are big fans of Gigi's designs. I personally think that a hat is an ultimate form of self expression and a great way to stand out, so I can't wait to own one of her whimsical creations.

Check out some of Gigi Burris' creations below:

TREND REPORT: PEPLUM

Peplum is everywhere! I've noticed many celebrities, models and style icons sporting this figure flattering trend on the red carpet, in social events and parties and most recently on the cover of Nylon magazine, where Mirror Mirror star, Lily Collins, looked gorgeous wearing a black leather peplum top. I love peplum because it looks great on anyone and can be worn with anything. Try a similar looking peplum top with a mini pencil skirt. Or try a peplum skirt with a fitted top tucked in. xx

Bumble and bumble's Tips For Gorgeous Hair

STYLE TIP 1
Always hand dry first. Focus on drying the roots and get about 80% of the moisture out before using a brush.

STYLE TIP 2
Aim blow dryer nozzle down the hair cuticle while drying to smooth hair and eliminate frizz.

STYLE TIP 3
For straight styles, use a flat brush working in small sections with tension (pulling hair taut to straighten).


STYLE TIP 4
To get a sleek look with bend and movement, dry hair in sections using a round brush.

STYLE TIP 5
When flat ironing, lift hair up and away from the face to get body and a more natural look.


STYLE TIP 6
As a finishing touch, blast hair with cold air to set the look and get more shine.
