Bold & Sexy Lips - Do you dare?

We have discovered that something as easy and simple as a blowout to our hair is a great way to give ourselves a mental boost that not only makes us feel good, but also boost our self esteem. What other simple things can we do to continue these waves of good feelings?

I often like to wear eye colors, whether it is using eye makeup powder, or eye liner pencils. I am particular fond of blues and pinks. Are you? I find that using makeup to enhance your looks is definitely a way to give yourself a self-esteem boost.

I love mixing hues of eye liner pencils, this is Turquoise and Dark Blue

However, not everyone likes to wear makeup, or even eye makeup. Although for some, usually just lip gloss or lip balm will do. Why not go bold and dare to wear a hint of lip color too?

Whenever I wear bold eyes, my lips are neutral (daytime look)

I have been wearing a more bolder shade than the usual bronze or sheer nude lip colors that I usually wear. Wearing red lipstick helps to boost my confidence. I decided to do this for a full week, not just for one particular outfit. The results of that has been an amazing boost to my self confidence and in making me feel good.

Red Lips is EVERYTHING

If you do not feel you can carry this off, try a tinted lip gloss or lip balm with a brighter hue. Look for a Cherry Red, or a Bright Pink. Now that is going bold! It is also another simple thing you can do to make yourself feel better and be more confident. Red Lips is EVERYTHING! #confidence.

Backstage at OIFW Model Casting Call

On Saturday, yesterday in fact, I had the pleasure of attending a casting call for models , an event organized and hosted by Fierce Entertainment Management for their upcoming Orlando International Fashion Week, November 2-8, 2014 . Attendees at the event were welcomed by Fierce Entertainment's, Rob Henlon who then handed the program over to the vivacious Kristania Vielot who instructed the aspiring models for their walk down the runway, strutting their stuff for the designers and other members of the Fierce team. As the models strutted to the sound of the music-mix pumping, guests sipped and ate refreshments that were provided. Before they walked the impromptu runway, I had a little tête-à-tête with three of the young models, Logan-9, Ashley-6 and Aiden-4, beautiful, cute, and adorable , (who won't want me to call them that, but I am because they were) whose future will lead them to become what they dream of! ...

Window Shopping Part Deux - What I Chose

As you know from my last article , I went shopping for swimsuit with my teen Mandi and ended up doing the same for myself. After all, I was in need of a new bathing suit. My last purchase for one was from Target eight years ago! And also during that time, I was the lucky recipient of two new suits from my BSFFL (Best Sister Friend For Life) who visited from Europe! So Those have lasted quite a long time!

Shoes, Fabulous Shoes!

There's nothing like a great pair of shoes that finishes an outfit. You can have on the most darling outfit, but if you don't have the right shoes to go with it, well, somehow you end up feeling like, "Meh", to quote the perfect noncommittal, blah expression! Men of the world, there's one thing you must know, shoes makes the outfit, that's why we women have a variety of them! In my quest for nude-colored shoes this season, here are two looks I love from Elle.com "Best Spring Heels" feature.
