Fab February: Rainy Day/Spring Hair Tutorial

1. Starting the night before wash you hair; now before you go to bed separate your hair as if you are putting it in pigtails.  2. Grab one “pigtail” and start to twist it. Twist your hair all the way until it begins to twist on it elf. Now take you twisted pigtail and pin it on top of your head. You can use butterfly clip or bobby pins. I, personally, find long dance bobby pins the most comfortable to sleep in. You really should not feel the clips that much unless you sleep in a headstand.  3. Do the same to the other pigtail. 4. In the morning, take down your pigtails and unravel them. You now should have nice curly waves.  5. Flip you head upside down and spray with a loose hold hairspray.  If you need to, tease the roots with a fine toothed comb to add volume. The curls will fall a little throughout the day, but the still will look like beautiful and effortless waves. There you have it! A super easy and fast hair style for those rainy ...

Fab February: Rainy Day Outfit Ideas

Today's Fab February is looking ahead to the warmer rainy days of spring, which I am sure are only days away. (After, of course, the latest cold front passes then I am positive it will be spring). So looking ahead to those beautiful days when you will still need to dress warm, but not polar vortex warm, here are a few items to have on stand-by in your closet: 1. Cozy Knits. This has not changed from my winter weather post, however now you may not have to wear 4 layers of thermal underwear underneath your sweater. You can just be cozy in the sweater worn all by itself. 2. Thick Leggings . No leggings are not pants, but they can be worn underneath your long cozy sweaters. Just make sure the sweater comes down to at least mid thigh if you are planning on wearing leggings and no pants. 3. Rubber Boots . Get rid of those clunky winter boots and grab your bright yellow rubber boots! Or riding boots. They come in all sorts of colours and patterns nowadays so pick which one is you...

Fab February: Victoria's Secret Model Inspired Fashion

Victoria's Secret Models are looked to for fashion inspiration by thousands of women all  over the world. So today's Fab February is a few fashion ideas to take from the ladies at Victoria's Secret that will match your Victoria's Secret Style hair from yesterday. 1. Wear Slim Fitting Pants . Choose either skinny leg or slim cut pants in dark and classic shades. Jeggings are way more flattering than usual jeans and they hug your curves and don't make it look like you have "tree trunk" legs. Not to mention they are ten times more comfortable than regular denim. 2. Pick Solid Neutral Colours . Choosing solid coloured tops will streamline your figure and make you appear longer and leaner. They also create an interchangeable wardrobe, and take the guessing out of which patterns to pick. 3. Wear Heels . Heels lengthen you, they lift your bum, and make you look instantly thinner (the exact reasons why French women wear them everyday). When looking for ...

Fab February: Makeup Wishlist/To-Do List for 2014

For today's Fab February post I thought I would post my makeup wishlist in honour of "Wishful Wednesday".... Yes, I just made that up.... Basically this post is of all the beauty related products that I would like to purchase or try in 2014. Kind of an odd post, but I have read a number of posts like this and I have always found them a useful forum. So if you have tried any of these products or have products that you want to try out in 2014 feel free to comment! 1. Nars Laguna Bronzing Powder . I have heard so much about this bronzer and I think that after my Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer runs out this will be my next bronzer purchase. 2. Clinique Cheek Pop Blush in Plum Pop. I have a feeling this blush is going to become my go to for the spring and summer. It looks like a grogeous plum shade which would be perfect for my light-medium cool toned complexion. 3. Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette. I am already in love with the original Naked Palette, and I just kn...
