I have a question for all you loveyish experts: I have weird lips. They're not very full, which I hate, but even worse than that there's no definite line between my lip and the rest of my mouth. But rather than my li…

My chest is small! Yep, hardly a 32A. I didn't really care about it before because I was always fit, but recently because of certain events in my life (plus some rude remarks) I've been hung up about my size. So, I start…

Wednesday night posed a great problem for me. At 5:45ish in the evening, my cousin called to inform that he had an extra floor seat to the Beyonce concert. Of course I was going to say yes...but geez...this left almost…

In my Shecky's newsletter today, there was a great shop article about Heels That Don't Hurt. Even though I'm tall, I still love me some heels, especially on a night out. I suffer through the pain because they are just to…

So yesterday I bought the L'Oreal Hip Jelly Balm in Succulent. I really wanted to get Plush but for some reason I got Succulent. So first thing. These are $9.00 at my Rite Aid which I think is a little ridiculous for s…

Here's Rihanna at the annual Grammy Awards. There are only two reasons to try and explain what Rihanna is wearing; she thought it was Halloween or she ran out of ideas for a dress and made it out of wood and mud. The…

How does Rachel Bilson always manage to look painfully stylish all the time?!Granted, these pictures are from a styled shoot, but she has a certain something about her that always adds a something extra to everything she…

So, I have a dilemma. My grad party is in 10 days, I have a beautiful lehenga to wear, and all the people I actually want to come. It's in a great restaurant with great food and we get the whole place to ourselves. Th…

What's a good way to stay on a budget, look hip, and make some extra cash in a recession? Consignment shops! Yes, you heard right. Second-hand treasures are the new thing. Who wants to pay full price when you can p…

I am one of the millions of people who suffer from eczema. It’s not too bad at times, but I always get flare ups in the face. Because of this, I’ve taken a liking to all natural skin care products.

There are so many beautiful women on this earth. If we were to narrow it down to Xanga, there are many beautiful women on here.

We all have gas from time to time -- even us Lovelyish ladies. But now there's a way to make things less offensive to your neighbors.

Today, I want to share some of my eyelash curling secrets. NYC has been hit with a wave of humidity and it’s been driving my lashes nuts, making them completely unmanageable. As you’ve seen in the other posts, I have be…

Now, ignore the fact that I just happened to be listening to the new Gossip record right now. Haha!But anyway, I am sure some people seem to notice that anytime I talk about girl celebrities I crush on or ones that go…

Age 13I'm sure you have all heard by now that Michael Jackson has passed away. Despite how eccentric he was and his personal life (personally I always thought he was innocent), he is an America icon not only in the mus…

Add radiance and definition to your brow bone by sweeping a shimmery champagne, coloured luminizer or shimmery eye shadow along the the lower edge of your brows. If you're not big on a 'shimmery' look, taupe eye shad…

I love trying on products before I buy them. I was searching for a lip plumper that really worked. I never really believed in them, but when I found this one...Wow.

So, a while back, I posted an entry entitled something like: "Help! A Layer of My Shoe Came Off!". I got some feedback on how I should cover it up, but there was quite a big blob missing so I couldn't just color it in…

Ever wonder what would happen if Edward Cullen met a girl who just wasn't that into him? As a fan of both Buffy and Twilight, I thought this was pretty funny. If you met an "Edward" in real life (ha) would you be a Bell…

I'm currently sucked into an episode of TLC's What Not to Wear, and it is starting to make me think, what do you think of makeover shows?I remember watching a makeover show on TLC that was on daytime tv as a kid during…

So, lately, I have been obsessed with Taylor Swift's style, especially the outfits that she wore in her recent trip to London. Why? It's effortless and simple. And almost every girl would have similar pieces to emulate t…

Today, I finally made up my mind to throw away those cosmetics that I kept for way too long!

I've been using the aspirin mask for a few months now and I loveeee it.

It can happen at any time. It sneaks up on me when I least expect it...I'm looking in the mirror and pulling at the shirt to see if I can get it to stop clinging to my boobs. All of a sudden, an ear piercing shriek sta…

It's my birthday today. I don't feel any different. I think that birthday's get lamer when you get older. Which is kind of backwards, if you think about it, but isn't that the case? When you're younger, you have fami…

Low-rise skirts are getting harder and harder to find in the top fashion shops these days, and for good reason. The high-waisted skirt is a throw-back from the 1980s and 1990s that is really cute and forgiving to all bod…

I was at Victoria's Secret the other day and I came across the Bare Bronze spray tan. My question is, does it work for the $18??

One thing that I find absolutely appalling about society is the use of nudity to sell clothes. What purpose does this serve other than to degrade and trash our opinion of culture?

For all of those who read and questioned my response to the "Real Women Have Curves" post on Lovelyish, this is for you.So a few of you wanted to know what proof I had of slogans that clothing companies used when marketi…

Some say that I'm the same height as my husband. Frankly, he and I agree that I'm just a little taller (he's 6'2", I'm 6'3"). Height has never really been an issue for us, but it does make some things a little awkward.…

Question of the Day:It's summertime obviously and it's time to step into our shorts and our tank tops. My favourite outfit to wear would be my white halter under my black t-shirt which curves perfectly so it shows off my…

At my middle school, there was a delightful dress code rule that any skirts, dresses or shorts you wore had to reach the tips of your fingers if you were standing up straight. An outfit like the one above would get you…

As reported by the Washington Post, a corny shirt featuring three wolves howling at the moon has shot to the top of Amazon.com's best-selling apparel chart. Why is this ugly 80's-ish tee filling up people's shopping car…

Call it vanity or a precaution but I used to use an anti- wrinkle cream, Oil of Olay to be specific. I started when I was 19 and now I’m 23.

We live in a world of unwritten rules. For instance, there’s an understanding amongst most women that you don’t fool around with a friend’s ex.

Today, I just found out that grease products that are petroleum or mineral oil based are bad for your scalp. I have been a faithful user of Softee hair products for many years (all of their products smell fruity and…

Rate Kirsten's look from 1 to 10.

I have this bad relationship with my hair. It is straight and boring. I never learned how to do my hair. I own a flat-iron, but rarely use it. It needs some serious body and I don't know how to get it. I was thinking a…

I've been reading again. Oh no, I think that usually ends with another post. But no, I was reading Allure. They have this article on "Sexiness" in there this issue. I found that interesting, and read it... I think I ca…

The infamous Anna Wintour is rumored to have quickly dismissed the idea of singing sensation Rihanna appearing on the cover of American Vogue when photos of her girly parts were splashed all over the internet.

After my third pair of ear bud headphones died, I decided to kiss them goodbye forever. While they're good for working out, ear buds a) don't stay in very well, b) hurt your ears, and c) have crappy sound quality. So,…

My friend recently forwarded this interview that Chelsea Handler had with T.I., and I love it. Note: She can be a little inappropriate at times.What's your favorite part of the interview? (Mine is definitely: "Anyone who…

Trucker Hats (this applies to women too.) This look is not only outdated and sad, it's too thuggish for anyone to pull off. Even adorable Ashton just looks kinda dumb.

If you work in retail, you know exactly what I am talking about.These are people who come into your store in groups, distract the employees, and steal them blind. They come in all shapes and sizes and you never know who…

Question of the Day:Who was your favorite fashion icon when you were growing up?

I love David Bowie inspired makeup, and found this adorable how-to tutorial video on YouTube.

I'm not sure if the term 'small talk' is used on a wide scale or not but as far as I know it is a common term. *to the point*I've never been much for 'small talk'. This is probably because of the prayers of my mother and…

I had a conversation on Messenger with my friend, Maggie, about long hair on girls and how I think long hair is so sexy and hot and I'm going to explain why.

(from top to bottom: Victoria Beckham, Hillary Duff, Adam Lambert, and Allison Mosshart of The Kills, rocking the bleached denim look). First it was skinny jeans. Then, acid wash reared its head again.

Question of the Day:When was the last time you cried? Why?

Much hullabaloo has been made over Kelly Clarkson's recent supposed weight gain, including speculation that she's pregnant.In response, Kelly has retorted:

J and I were part of a fun little fashion shoot and it was one of the first times I’d ever done fashion hair! It’s so different from wedding hair styling, because it’s wild and uncontrolled. I know everyone loves Befo…

It was only a matter of time before Emma Watson became the face of Burberry. Just like Rachel Weisz, she’s everything the label is: natural, chic, elegant, and most importantly, an English Darling.

A crafty woman in Maine creates her own soaps. Not too weird, right? But wait until you find out her secret ingredient: it's her own breast milk.

Today I was attracted by a display window when I passed by the street. I bet many of you have seen it already.They are bloody heads with no bodies. These heads are made with felt.

I went fishing the other day and just stood there in awe of the world. The peaceful ocean, the blue sky, and just spending a relaxing day with my Yug. Nature has definitely created a balance for humankind especially in t…

My eyebrows look like I have caterpillars stuck to my face. Not the skinny kind either the fat hairy kind. I look damn tired. I have decided a pit stop to an Asian waxing princess is in order for this afternoon.…

I just bought a new bathing suit today and I'm unsure how I feel about it at the moment. It's like... half one piece and half two piece. I normally wear a bikini, but I fell in love with this suit when I saw it on the…

My entire life, I've been battling this epidemic called kinky hair. My hair has always been thick, dry, damaged, and naturally curly. On top of that, I've also bleached, permed, dyed, blow dried, flat-ironed and rel…

I hit up Craigslist’s beauty section, and I was able to find a good handful of ads that needed Hair Models. I always thought that you needed to be a model in order to do these types of things, but turns out you don’t! Mo…

What do you think of this gentleman's faux pas?

So I managed to get a call today for a possible modeling job, and was totally excited. It was actually my first appointment since trying to re-start my modeling career. Not going to mention who it was for, it doesn't…

Both Nicky Hilton and Katy Perry are pictured wearing a cute Matthew Williamson for H&M Peacock Print dress. Who do you think wore it better?

Eyeshadow application is a true art form. Unless you're Frida Kahlo with the sponge applicator, you're bound to smudge something out of place. Personally, I've never been able to master a smoky eye that doesn't make me…

I passed by 65th street 11th ave yesterday, and I saw a small, sweet pink bakery. When I got closer to the display window, the baker was making a "Louis Vuitton bag" cake! It actually looks much better in real life than…

I'm sure you are all well-versed and familiar with UGG boots. I've never owned an official pair (bought the knock-off $15 pair instead), but I honestly bought them because they were so warm, not for how they look. Fo…

Question of the Day:What is the one thing you must have to feel completely dressed? For me, it's a pair of cute and/or sexy underwear, be it a thong, cheeky, bikini, lacey, or whatever other styles there are. I just di…

Many people nowadays are in need of corrective eyewear, be it in the form of glasses or contacts. Growing up, I had to wear glasses myself. Some people get lucky, and only need them for reading and other tasks, but I was…

The photo is a close up shot which is not photoshoped. Right before I turned 25, I saw a few lines under both of my eyes. I started to worry and since then I began the journey of eye cream. It makes me wonder how many o…

I just read an article that said that checking your body weight and BMI daily is a sign of an eating disorder. I check mine daily. (Okay, I confess...sometimes up to 5 times in one day), but I wouldn't consider myself ha…

I'm not going to deny that I have nice legs. They're long, have nice muscular tone, and even if they are rather pale (I'm Irish, what can you do?), they still look fabulous when I wear high heels. The problem is that I…

Instead of going to rehab, Amy Winehouse is starting her own clothing line! I'm not sure where this is going to go, but I can't help but be intrigued. I must admit, she has an interesting style and she has rocked s…

Who wore this lovely red dress better, Christina Aguilera or Sheryl Crow? ( Image Source)

After seeing cute-as-a-button Rihanna in CoverGirl's Exact Eyelights mascara commercial, I went right out and bought some. I figured it was worth a try. As their ad says, "Get light-reflecting metallics and a hint of…

I'm about 5'6 and 130 lbs...Pretty normal in today's society. However, I have stretch marks on my hips, butt, and thighs. They look funny, and are a reddish color. It's summertime, and I'm about ready to go to the beach…

My friend went home a while ago to visit his family. As he walked up to the front steps of his house he heard his niece scream from inside. He and his brother-in-law exchanged glances and the door burst open. “You’re no…

Mascara is the one thing I will not leave the house without even if I'm not wearing anything else. It makes me feel prettier and more confident like nothing else. It is the one thing (in my opinion) that really complet…

There's something about being a (half) African American black woman. (I may not be politically correct, but really, I'm just BLACK and that's how I affiliate myself).

Honestly, how hard is it to walk into a store and purchase makeup? Apparently it's a lot harder than I thought, as I found out today. Forget about flawless shopping experiences at Sephora or Ulta; I realized that I pr…

After nearly a decade (seriously!) of battling with my acne, I've finally managed to get it under control with birth control pills and a magical prescription ointment called Differin. Yet one irritating thing remains: ac…
