To bleach or not to bleach...

When I first saw this trend it was on the runway and Kendall Jenner instantly springs to mind, having to wear this look while modelling for both Marc Jacobs and Givenchy. 

As part of a runway show, I get it. It's very high fashion and brings a uniformity to each model in the show, like they are an army of eyebrow less, willowy creatures sent from space a few times a year to participate in fashion week. 

As with all trends these looks eventually filter down to the celebrity world and eventually us mere mortals will give it our best shot. This is where the problem lies! I am the eyebrow queen, I love them! The thicker and darker the better for me. I could go weeks without touching my brows and that's fine by me. Even after I have applied my makeup I will always go along and touch up my already strong brows because in my opinion a good brow is crucial in framing your entire face. Lots of us regular girls aren't blessed with the high cheek bones, strong jaw lines and full lips of those supermodels. We need something to compensate, a defining feature on our face. Eyebrows!!! 

It's fine for the likes of Kim K to experiment with this look her face is like something sculpted by a renaissance artist and Miley can get away with just about anything because she is Miley! This is just one of those trends that I cannot deal with. I will let you girls make up your own minds however and if you are interested in achieving the look I do have some tips for you.

 Unless you have another very striking facial feature such as high cheek bones or pillowy lips avoid this trend, you will look like an alien! Do not under any circumstances use the same peroxide you would use to bleach your head! Use a facial bleach which will be much milder and cause less damage to your brows and less irritation to your skin. Please, please, please be careful of your peepers, you only have one set and if you can get someone else to help you! Let's see if this one catches on!

Kim's bestie dishing up beef!

Uh ohhh! There seems to be a new Hollywood feud brewing between Kim Kardashian or rather her bestie Jonathan Cheban and ex glee actress Naya Rivera. 

The controversy comes on the heels of the release of Kim's Paper magazine cover. 

Naya left a not so nice comment under Kim's Instagram post and Jonathan was none too pleased! 

He took to his website thedishh.com to slate the young Hollywood starlet claiming that she has been desperately trying to befriend Kim and do business with her to no avail. 

It does sort of seem that Naya is morphing into the KUWTK star of late. 

We'll have to see how this story develops! What do you guys think of Naya's comment?

What I Wore- Vintage Glam

Yesterday was probably my first Saturday in nearly a year that I wasn't working! (Gotta love retail!) Having a weekend off in such a novelty so I really had to make the most of it. My boyfriend took me out for dinner and so I spent the day getting all glammed up! Recently, I have been really inspired by vintage fashion. I think particularly at this time of the year in the lead up to Christmas it is lovely to indulge in some extra glam and take advantage of the flattering, ladylike silhouettes of years gone by. My inspiration for last night's glam was a little bit Dita Von Teese a little bit Mad Men! 

I purchased my animal print wiggle dress on asos a few weeks ago and was quite nervous about wearing this style. As soon as I tried it on I fell in love! I feel that this dress would do wonders for any body type. It has a high, nipped in waist which gives a gorgeous hourglass shape. There is extra volume at the hips which could give a slim girl the appearance of  a curvaceous figure but the extra fabric here will also conceal a multitude if you are conscious of your middle. This dress was quite long and came down to my shin (I'm 5 foot 5). However, it didn't shorten me like I expected it too. I felt very ladylike and refined last night yet the animal print and sky high heels made the look sexy. 

I purchased these heels on office.co.uk and they are very similar to the Louboutin Pigalle style. They're about 5 inches high so you only really just teeter around in them, I wouldn't advise a night of dancing at all they nearly killed me in Marbella! As the dress was such a statement piece I kept all my accessories simple. Black shoes, bag and my trusty Moschino belt to cinch in my waist. 

I continued the vintage theme to my hair and makeup. 

It's difficult to see my hair in these pictures but I wore it parted to the side with a brushed out curl a la Dita. My makeup look was a real change for me as I'm a terror for falling back on the old reliable smoky eye and nude lip! I started by using a mattifying gel on my skin to take away any shine before applying my foundation. I kept my blush and highlighter minimal and just added a little flush to my cheeks. I went with the compulsory cat eye on my eyes using MAC's gel liner in Blacktrack and finished with some false lashes. On my lips I lined with MAC Cherry liner and finished my look with Russian Red lipstick which I think would look fab on all complexions. This is definitely a look I will be trying again over the festive period! Hope you all had a fabulous weekend!
