Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI'm a lady (okay, saying 'lady' is debatable) with considerable experience in applying, talking about and buying makeup. So when I first caught wind of the 'No Mirror Makeup Challenge' videos going around on YouTube, I admit that I thought to myself: "Who are these newbies? Psshhh, I could totally do that, no prob!".
If you haven't seen any of these videos or if you...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basLast week, Fairview Mall invited Lisa and Wendy from The Hip and Urban Girls, Michelle from Beauty Editor and myself from ChickAdvisor to participate in Fairview Mall’s Makeover Challenge. Each of us was given $250 and the task of finding one lucky shopper to receive a surprise makeover. I know what you’re thinking, tough job. Right?
Remember that scene from Clueless where Cher and Dion...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basPeople Magazine just came out with their list of the 10 best dressed ladies in Hollywood, but I have to say, I am a little perplexed. I hate to say it, but I'm not sure if all these starlets are deserving of their spot on the top 10 list. Mixed feelings for Gwyneth aside, I appreciate her sense of style. But, number one? Meh. I'm not buying it. I'm wasn't sure if I...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI feel like eye shadow is underrated. It's one of my favourite makeup products because of all the possibilities and how much fun you can have with it. I don't think enough people really appreciate it! But with the jewel tone trend and major smoky eye effect we're seeing this fall, I'm hoping that eye shadow gets a serious boost in popularity.
With all the shadow I'm...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI'm a big fan of cheap n' chic costume jewelry. It's inexpensive but uber trendy so when it breaks or tarnishes in the next month, I'm not too upset about it since it'll most likely be out of style already anyway. However, there is something to be said for finding real quality statement pieces that fit your personality. Pieces that you know you won't tire of because of...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basNew York Fashion Week recently wrapped up it's spring 2013 shows. I love fashion week because it's a chance for me to build my fantasy closet. Don't we all have one of those? I like to take note of my favourite styles and daydream about how lovely I would look in them. Yes, I can't afford anything and no, that doesn't stop me from thinking about them. Le sigh...
Here are my...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWhile a signature scent is nice to have, I'm more of a 'scent switching' kind of girl. I like to match my outfit to my mood; my clothing and makeup choices depend on how I am feeling that day. So why shouldn't it be the same with my fragrance? I like the idea of going with a complete look and feel with my outfit, makeup and scent. If I wake up feeling rather creative one...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basIf the previously discussed princess-esque headchains were a little out of your comfort zone but you still want to play with a headpiece trend this fall, you need to go out and get yourself a statement headband.
Dolce and Gabana really hit it out of the park in their fall 2012 show when they put gloriously baubled headbands on model's heads (yes, gloriously baubled is a thing). The...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWe've seen the feather nail art, we've dabbled in both crystal and caviar manis, we tried our hand at magnetic polish and played around with glitter. Safe to say, we thought we'd seen it all when it came to nail polishes.
Enter in Illamasqua with their rubber finish polish. Like the name suggests, the nail polish imitates the matte sheen of a rubber boot. They...
