Messy Braids

Need a quick beauty trick for your unruly hair? Have you tried the tried-and-true messy braid? It doesn't matter if you wear it half up or in a bun, this hair style looks effortless because it actually is. Start with dry hair, smooth with a little Moroccan Oil, and french braid or fishtail in any place you like. Mess it up by taking a few pieces of the braid and loosening them up. The dirtier your hair is the better. Simple right? Take a look at a few inspiration pictures below and make this hair trend your own!

Holiday Sparkle

Last week, I wrote to you about a classic black and white dresses for the holidays. I am not always a fan of sparkle (I am more of a classic pearls kind of gal), but  there is no better time of the year to do it then right now. Strapless, cap or full length sleeves, the possibilities are endless if you want to dress in a little bling. What's great about this holiday trend is you can limit it to just your earrings or shoes, or go all out and get make your entire outfit shine. Literally.  I have great makeup to enhance this look too!

Take a look at the imagaes below that I hope inspire you to step out of the makeup box this weekend for your holiday party. What's even better: it looks good on any eye shape!
