FASHIONISTA OF THE DAY IN PEARLS: Toshiko S. (@itsnotheritsme)

This Fashionista was chosen as our “Fashionista of the Day in Pearls” because we really loved how she made an all-black style look wearable. It is so simple but completely chic because she used texture, and accessories to make the look fashionable.

Toshiko S., style blogger of Its Not Her It’s Me, showed off her style with this unique combination of a pair of sunglasses by Zerouv.com;, a fancy lace long sleeve top by Wet Seal; a faux fur vest by Armani Exchange;  a cute perfume bottle clutch and strappy heels from Make Me Chic; and a beautiful pearl ring. read more

ASK MS. ELITOU: How can I wear pearls with my overalls?

 “Hi Ms. Elitou! I am a young fashionista and I am in love with the overall trend! I love the style of it all and I want to switch the style up. I wanted to know is there a way that I can wear pearls with my overalls without looking like a farmer who stumbled into pearls.  I am very excited to receive your advice! Thanks!

Hi Tasha:

This is an awesome question! I have noticed that the overall trend has been seen everywhere and I have come to love it. I think it is really bold and the wearer of the style has to be very self-confident and full of gusto in order to truly make it work. read more

BEAUTY TREND: The “White Eye” Trend Goes Great With Pearls

A great trend for the Spring/Summer is certainly the “White Eye” trend.

The “White Eye” trend is a makeup look that is making their way from the runway to the catwalk of the streets. This style consists of brightening your look with a white eyeliner and mascara.

The look is quite convenient because it doesn’t require a lot of work and extensive knowledge of makeup to look great. No extensive smudging, blending, and color combinations needed.

White makeup is bold like its black eyeliner opposite so you do have to be conscious of not overdoing the look. White eyeliner makes the eyes the focal point of the look so the rest of the look must stay natural with little to no blush and lip color. read more
