Do and Don't while going for a hair cut

Whenever you go to your hair stylist wear something which represent your personal style. If you arrive looking sloppy the stylist may assume that you are not very particular about your appearance and in return he/she wont be very particular about your hair. I am sure lot of women would understand what I mean;-).

I live by all these rules.

Do's

Bring in photos of hairstyles you want. Come prepared to show how you want it. Its a smart phone world. Couple of styles in the picture gallery wont hurt:-)

Try to schedule an appointment on  a weekday(Not possible for working ladies I know) but if you could work around a bit and make it happen extra points for that. Weekend are generally crowded so it may distract the stylist, no matter what he/she may tell you.

Play around with your hair once you are done. You have all chances to correct it if something is not right or according to you while at the salon.

Don'ts

Don't wear a shirt or a turtle neck. This obstructs your jawline which will alter the end effect of the cut.

Don't forget to tip. You will be surprised at the extra attention you get in your next visit.

If you have any question or doubts speak up, don't hold it. You wont regret it later.

Hope it helps you:-)).. Happy Salon/Me time.

Prints on Prints

Mixing your prints (like mixing your drinks) can be dangerous and overwhelming. Now, one can go terribly wrong with this, but heck it’s 2014,  the year to take major fashion risks! So it’s time to shed those inhibitions and show your true colors------------ prints!

It’s as easy as it looks! However, you might want to keep in mind some ground rules, if you’d like to play safe, that is:
1)Color palette:
Juxtapose similar color tones together to create a vibrant mash up of prints that does not look too discontinuous to the eyes. For example, warm color toes such as yellow, red, orange, brown look better when mixed with each other and cooler tones such as pink, blue, silver, purple look best when paired together.
The idea is to create clashing patterns but make sure the two or three prints in your ensemble have atleast one common color.

2) Types of prints:
Pit graphic prints against soft and feminine prints to create a contrast- For example, striped top with a colorful, floral skirt works best. You could even try a soft polka dotted top with fluid, asymmetric shapes and lines.
 Remember: The smaller the print or pattern, the easier it is to mix! So keep that in mind if you’re looking for the easy way out.
3) Accessories:
Since there’s so much going on with different types of prints, pair your juxtaposed prints with accessories in solid hues, in order not to look overwhelming. Keep the accessories minimal and let the prints do all the talking!

 
Go ahead, be bold, be confident ans stay stylish !!

Trend Alert: Army Green

As winter is almost here,  we all know black is gonna be a staple, but adding some green to this mix will give some edge. It was a trend echoed by many designers like Phillip Lim, Michael Kors, Prabul Gurung, Calvin Klein, Rachel Zoe, Reed Krakoff and Vivienne Tam .

As always, the easiest way to work a new trend is via accessories. An army green shoe, bag or scarf will nudge you into the fall fashion scene in style.

The army green jacket is a versatile piece. Pair it with a denim or colored pants with a casual tee. Team it with a dress to give a edgier look!

LADY GAGA fall trend!
