I haven’t been able to catch back on to the nail art culture, but I clearly remember 3 years ago, hitting the salon’s in the hoods of various cities in the San Fernando Valley. I was all about airbrush, acrylic’s, and you name it. If Valley’s was in L.A, I can assure you I would get back into it. Matte black? Hello Kitty? You sold me. They’ve had various famous people come in such as Betsey Johnson and more. So if you’re in New York, make sure you hit up Valley!
I have never celebrated St. Patty’s Day in my life because I always figured what for?? I’m not Irish. Yet after having spent a fair amount of time with this Irish-American kid I’ve started to give it some thought. Being the Isis that I am one should know that I am not gonna go about it the regular ol’ drinking wearing a green outfit and lucky charms way. No!!!! I’m gonna get creative and make some green suggestions. I call it “Get Ya Green On”.

#1 Since most people are “all about their paper” anyways I say f**k it, get ya nails did with paper too. This look will wow em on the streets since it of course is green AND it’s kosher beyond St. Patty’s Day. How would you explain having lucky charms on your finger nails two three weeks from now?? Exactly! Money is the clever way to go because everyone understands getting paid. And if anyone asks at the parade just remind them that it’s green.
#2 Take a bite outta that freakin apple. Apples are more than fruit bowl accessories, they’re delicious and healthy little balls. Did you know apples contain antioxidants that improves the immune function and prevents disease. And apparently green apples have the ability to act as a liver and gall bladder cleanser which of course is a gross but useful piece of information.
#3 Bring out them hot mess leggings and party like it’s 1990!!! Okayyy so this may not be one of those beyond St. Patty Day sort of things but it’s green and if you do it right you will without doubt pull it off. I’m kinda salty at the various colours chosen and the outfit as a whole in the picture above but I’m not asking you to pay attention to the tee shirt or the shoes. Just look at the green leggings and imitate that specific look for the holiday aight??!
#4 I don’t see anything like this living in downtown Chicago and I sure as hell won’t be found sitting on a park bench this close to the lake in this winter weather BUT it’s no excuse to not go outdoors and enjoy the little bit of natures scenery available. Point is, get outside of your cozy ass loft, apartment, basement or whatever and embrace some green air.
And last but not least please, please, please…whatever you do this St. Patty’s Day, do not buy yourself a “GREEN” bag if you know good and well you don’t contribute to the betterment of Earth. NAGL. Yall have no idea how irritating it is to see someone walking around with one of these eco trendy things then witness them littering with their little cigarette butts and gum wrappers. Find a bag that’s true to your lifestyle, none of that phony hipster shit.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!
Victoria’s Secret model Gisele Bundchen will be launching an eco-friendly beauty line called Sejaa Pure Skincare , today! Gisele says the line will uses all-natural ingredients, “thoughtful” packaging” and recycled paper. Who knows what kind of input models/celebrities put into their own brands or collections, but I’m liking the “all-natural” idea of this.
From black, to streaks, to blonde and now fiery red, I think Kat has hit the spot. Although I loved how black looked on her, I am totally feeling this color way more! I considered going this color a while ago, but I think it looks much better with fair and light skin tones. What do you guys think?
So I let all our readers know back in December that Tarina Taratino was working on a beauty collection exclusively for Sephora… well here it is, and it’s available for purchase! I personally can’t wait to head over to Sephora and grab some of these goodies! I love Tarina’s style and accessories, so I wouldn’t mind accenting myself with some of her beauty products. This collection totally reminds me of stuff I used to have in my costume collection. You can see the entire collection here, and start shoppin!
I have a lot of hair, but my hair has been falling off a lot lately. I’m not a fan of hair products, so I decided to do some research and take care of it on my own. I found the cause of hair loss and a few simple steps you can try from your own home! 
These are the most common causes for hair loss: Stress, hormonal changes, hair products, poor diet, medicine, & genes.
Facts:
-It’s normal to lose around 50 to 100 hairs per day.
-No product will make your hair grow or make it thicker.
-Hair loss begins around the ages of 12 to 40.
-Normal haircare doesn’t affect hair loss.
DO’s:
Rub Olive, Almond & Coconut oils into scalp. Repeat 3 times a week.

Wow, I never thought I would say this, but Gaga looks absolutely breathe taking! It looks like she took a step away for a brief moment from the crazy costume’s, and stepped into a cute LBD, with normal make-up. Although we do all love her crazy outfits, there’s something sweet and cute about her in simple clothing.
On her ex boyfriend :
“I had a boyfriend who told me I’d never succeed, never be nominated for a Grammy, never have a hit song, and that he hoped I’d fail. I said to him, ‘Someday, when we’re not together, you won’t be able to order a cup of coffee a the fucking deli without hearing or seeing me.”
On her career:
“I ate shit for so long, being told I didn’t fit the mold and that I was ‘too pop’ or ‘too theater’…I’ve always been delusionally ambitious to the point where people don’t understand me.”There are tons of questions we want to ask Lady Gaga. After all, she’s one of the most fascinating music artists
we’ve ever seen. And unlike most people who are given that title, she actually manages to live up to it—she’s a true artist—while still singing ultracatchy pop songs that make it impossible not to dance. She’s kind of a genius… but she’s also kind of bizarre. Who is she, really? We plan to find out.But as we wait for her to meet us at a chic Las Vegas sushi restaurant, we’re completely preoccupied with the most obvious question of all: What the hell will she be wearing? That translucent bubble dress, a bra that shoots sparks, lingerie that oozes fake blood—Gaga never looks boring. In fact, we’d be shocked if she’s so much as touched a pair of sweat pants in her life.
Sadly, there are no pyrotechnics when we spot her strutting toward us in a pair of black shades, a skimpy bustier, and an impossibly tight vinyl miniskirt. Just as we realize we have no idea what to call her (though we bet “Stefani” will get us slapped), she stretches out a pale, delicate hand in our direction and declares “Gaga.” Of course.
We offer her a cocktail, but she has a soldout concert in a few hours, and she doesn’t want to drink before the show. Instead, she orders riceless sushi and dressingless salad. For Gaga, life is all about being in the spotlight… and why would she do anything to jeopardize that? “My friends joke that I’m dead until I get onstage,” she says. “I’m dead right now as you’re speaking to me.”
This issue is on newsstands March 9th.
I love her sooo much more after reading these snippets of her interview!
I fell in love with the ad photos for MAC’s Viva Glam VII collection with Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper. The colors look amazing, I can’t wait to run over to the MAC store and give them a try!
Currently for sale from MAC Cosmetics in support of their AIDS fund introduces to us Viva Glam VII. All proceeds go to a charity for people living with HIV and AIDS. They come in two colors Viva Glam Cyndi (red) or Viva Glam Gaga, a light pink. You can grab them for $14 through Nordstroms or MAC Cosmetics.
So Jennifer Love Hewitt started this craze with “vajazzling”, and now every company and spa is trying to get on it! So now you can dye your pubes pink, and vajazzle them all at the same time. For what purpose? I have no idea..but their are people who will get on it. What do you think?
Bryce Gruber of The Luxury Spot, www.theluxuryspot.com a widely read online lifestyle site, became the first member of the media to experience the latest in personal grooming, Vajazzling.
She was sent by Spa Week Daily, www.spaweekdaily.com, to cover one of the treatments that’ll be offered during Spa Week Spring 2010, April 12-18, when spa treatments are just $50 a piece at participating spas across the country. Gruber headed to Completely Bare on Bond Street (www.completelybare.com) to try their newest service, Vajazzling, which is the bedazzling of the area which gets waxed when getting a bikini wax (or more) by adding crystals and beads to the nether regions.
A play on bedazzling and a part of the female body, Vajazzling is the adornment of crystals and beads to the bikini area after waxing According to the Completely Bare website, “Accessorizing your privates is the hottest rage. From crystal flowers to customized favorites, you too can now decorate your own jewels. Whether it’s a special occasion or you just want to sparkle everywhere, you can choose from an assortment of real Swarovski crystal designs so you can shimmer and shine.”
Gruber stated: “I’m here to cover up my C section scar. I’m here to give the women of America options.”

I always get blown away by some of the celebrities “back in the day” photo. Some look exactly the same, some look like they’ve have major work done, and some make us think we may have a chance. Can we please take some notes down from some of these ladies? Some of those bang/fly traps are too amazing!!! Can you guess who everyone is?
