I saw this in a magazine listed as a top tip of designers. It's something I've never heard of before, but apparently painting the inside of a black lampshade shocking pink or red is not only a design statement, it creates softer mood lighting. Since I'm such a newbie to this whole D.I.Y business, I thought this fool-proof project had my name all over it. I got a gorgeous...
I used to solely be a fashion girl. I was obsessed with the latest collaborations between designer and merchandiser, I lived and breathed fashion magazines and my internet activities consisted of looking at photos on Style.com. Now, I still love me some Gucci and Prada but I've come to realize that the world of beauty might even be more interesting (blasphemy, I know).
So, I don't want to toot my own horn here or anything chicks, but I think I delivered pretty well on the prizes this week!
I've been on a bit of a experimental skincare kick lately, trying new products and different things out. I think it's because during the summer, I love the light, "no makeup-makeup look" (if that makes sense). I've been treating my skin instead of...
This week, we're doing something a little different in our pose off. We were inspired by the gorgeous summer weather we've been having and the fabulous fashion we've been seeing in the stores. To show off some of our personal style and fashion inspiration, we thought it would be fun to create our personal summer lookbooks. First up, I put together a casual, summer weekend lookbook...
Sometimes something is just too cute not to share. That's definitely the case with these onesies I found at an Etsy shop called The Wishing Elephant. I just happened to stumble upon them one day and I thought to myself, I must have a child right now and dress them up as a piece of salmon sushi. This needs to happen.
How can you resist a baby dressed as a piece of sushi on a bed of rice...
Okay, let's just get this out there and out of the way. Yes, yes I have been marking down the days on my calender until the movie Magic Mike comes out. And no, I don't think it's a bit on the creeper side. Can you really blame me for eagerly anticipating a movie that involves pretty much nothing but shirtless hotties? If you haven't heard about Magic Mike yet, then prepare to thank...
Water is my favourite drink. Straight up, on the rocks or as a side with my espresso, nothing beats the refreshment of water. I especially love Spa Water. First, because you are usually at the spa when you drink it. Second, I love the subtle flavours of fresh cucumber, citrus fruits, herbs and berries.
On my recent trip to Napa the hotel made Strawberry Cucumber water that...
Back in January 2012, the Chick staff all wrote down their resolutions for the upcoming year. My own resolution was to take better care of myself. This wasn't exactly coming out of nowhere. Over the past few months, I had started to notice changes in my body. At first, it was just that my jeans were a little tight but before I knew it, I couldn't even get them on.
