KarenRStyle Fall Picks

Fall is here, and its defiantly my favorite season, because the weather is cold enough to wear vests and boots but warm enough to show off a cleavage on a loose silk blouse. It comes at second half of the year when most of fashion collections and trends are already exposed and in stores, so it’s our chance to mix-match and rock a unique style.

Here are my clothing picks for Fall 2011.

Hope u like them as much as I do! You are more that welcome to show me your pick! Leave a comment and your link!

LOVE,

KarenR

By this time of the year u must have bought a loose silk blouse, its been a MUST HAVE for all seasons, so FALL 2011 isn´t the exception. 

Skinny Jeans: Yes! Im sure by now 100% women around the World has their own pair, i hope you bought them on a DARK shade! It always makes us look thinner, and lightens up every color use on the upper half.

Vest, i love this unique piece as it can be combined with many colors, and adds texture, class and attitude to the outfit. 

Make sure is the only  ¨hairy¨  piece on your outfit. Nobody wants to end up looking like a monkey halloween costume. Jeans and a light colored top are great a great match. 

Infallible formula for shoes: Burberry.

Besides A. Mcqueen and C.Louboutin, BURBERRY this year has showed shoe creations with the best attitude. They are the perfect edgy but classy combination magic.

Just like this pair of boots, that will lighten up your outfit, even over jeans and a tank top!

CHANEL… DO I REALLY NEED TO SAY SOMETHIG? NOTHING BESIDES STUNNING, FLAWLESS, AND PERFECTION IS WHAT I HAVE TO SAY FOR THIS HANDBAG!

Hope u enjoy this post, comments and bloglinks are welcome!

LOVE,

KarenR

Eye-Liner Dilemma

Hey guys i recently received an ¨advice request email from Blogger Ray @ Fashionwrites and i thought i share it here, as Im sure all women around the globe has the same issue!

Request:

What black eyeliner would you recommend is the best? I am tired of buying eyeliner after eyeliner that keeps promising me "water-proof" and "smear-proof" and yet, after sitting during one class session, my eyeliner is smeared under my lids like I had a horrible night of sleep. :(

What is the best non-smear eyeliner would you recommend me try? I promise I won't be upset if it doesn't work out, but being that I am, by far, not the beauty expert, I'm sure I won't be disappointed! I know nothing much besides my everday face when it comes to beauty!

Thanks!

KarenRStyle answered:

Here are some steps to find the perfect eye-liner:

1. Which Make- up Brand? There are thousands of makeup brands on the market: expensive, cheap, organic, non- organic, etc etc. After spending a lot of $$$ on testing  different brands, I’ve discovered that depending on what make-up product you’re looking for there is a brand name for it!

So, Eyeliners: Bobbi Brown and MAC are the best option.

2. Which TYPE of Eyeliner: Pencil or Gel?

First think what do you want from your eyeliner:

 a. Fast and Easy application but quickly comes off: Pencil Eyeliner.

 b. Long-Wear and a great eye-definition effect: Gel Eyeliner 

For your case, and based on my EYELINER brand testing results I highly recommend option B.

Product List:

BOBBI BROWN: Long Wear Gel Eyeliner. It has a great texture, bold color, and with an incredible small amount of product, you get a perfectly defined eye. That definatly will stick with you all day long, or all night long :)

Apply the Gel Eyeliner with the brush; it’s a very fine delicate brush that applies just the right amount in the right places!

Here is the link for the Bobbi Brown Eye Liner:

Also MAC Gel Eye Liners do a great job on your eyes, and cost much less than the Bobbi Brown, so depending on your budget , you choose! I use both brands, as they have different colors but i get great results with both brands!

Here is the link for the MAC Gel Eyeliner:

http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/shaded/151/898/Fluidline/index.tmpl

WARNING: To achieve the great look always remember:

1. Apply the Gel Eyeliner with a special brush, it’s a very fine delicate brush that applies just the right amount in the right places! I highly recommend Bobbi Brown has the best brushes of the market NO DOUBT. I’ve tried MAC and SEPHORA brushes, but they are nothing compared to Bobbi Brown brushes.

2. Application Process:

When applying the Gel Eye Liner, tap a small amount of product on the brush, stand yourself in front of a mirror and put your elbow on a flat surface so that your arm has some support and your hand is steady.

Start from the outer corner to the middle of the upper lash line, then complete the line starting from the inner corner to the middle of upper lash line, to complete a perfect line!

Repeat the same on your lower lash line!

I HOPE THIS WAS HELPUFUL AND YOU ARE GETTING A PERFECT LOOK ON YOUR EYES!

KEEP IN TOUCH!

VERSACE for H&M

Versace making low-cost clothes?  

For me is a bittersweet feeling that Donatella Versace is designing a whole collection for retail stores H&M. From one side is great because you and me,  fashion devourers under budgets can get a sneak peak of the Versace magic. But on the other side, the real essence of the Versace Brand has nothing to do with budgets, or low cost fabrics, or massive consumption. 

Versace has meant nothing else but LUXE, EXCENTRICITY, EXCESS, & COUTURE.

Clearly H&M and Versace working together is a move that reveals the growing amount of fashioholics around the world and how much more consumers are now aware of high fashion designers. 

So at the end, cheers to Versace for all of us!

Enjoy!

Im sharing the official video, and the pictures od Donatella working with H&M.

Love,
