Today's Fab Tip:
Not going to lie -- today's fabulous tip was delayed thanks to a combination or work, Once Upon A Time, and Game of Thrones. OMG that ending to tonight's ep of Game of Thrones... And Loras! What will happen to Loras?! My poor baby!
Ahem. Sorry. Right. Fabulous tip...
It's getting hotter now, which means you walk outside and start sweating. You need makeup to be long-lasting to survive all day, so here's a tip for a fabulous sun-lit look.
"Rose gold shadow is extra pretty in the sun. Choose a waterproof, cream version-- it's the most long-lasting."
-- Taken from Lucky magazine, May 2015, page 96.
Rose gold eyes will make your entire face luminous, and that's beautiful for a nice summery day.

Fabulous Tip of the Day: Retro Lashes
Today's Fab Tip:
Seriously, '60s and '70s-inspired trends are huge right now. I blame American Hustle. And X-Men: Days of Future Past. And Mad Men. Whatever, it's really big. The easiest way to incorporate any trend that's not your usual style and that you're not willing to splurge on is to go for an accessory or a little beauty trick. Spidery mascara can give you just the right amount of retro without making it look like you're trying too hard and without putting in a ton of effort. Always a plus. Here's how to get that look:
"An extra coat of mascara on top and bottom makes lashes look spidery and retro-sexy."
-- Taken from Lucky magazine, May 2015, page 95.
A lash comb can help you separate lashes for a little more spiky look, and a mascara like L'Oreal's Miss Manga Rock (my current favorite mascara) will make that even easier. The important thing, though, is to do lots of coats on both sets of lashes. Don't skip the bottom lashes, or it won't look balanced or retro-chic enough, k? Super simple.

Fabulous Tip of The Day: Spring Blazer
Today's Fab Tip:
Now that the weather's getting warmer and (finally) springy, try brightening up your wardrobe as well.
"Instead of a denim jacket, try a blazer in light-catching violet."
-- Taken from Lucky magazine, April 2014, page 127.
A violet blazer can work both in professional and casual settings, and it is definitely something to have fun with.

Fabulous Tip of the Day: Simple and Luxe
Today's Fab Tip:
"Amp up your work look: Pair a bejeweled top with a pencil skirt."
-- Taken from Lucky magazine, December 2013/January 2014, page 54.
This is an easy way to upgrade a simple outfit and look more sophisticated, chic, and luxe, while still work-appropriate. Throw a bejeweled sweater over a button down with the pencil skirt, a pair of black opaque tights, and black pumps, and you've got more layers to keep you warm during these cold January days. Just don't pair with a necklace or statement earrings; you don't want too much bedazzlement. Keep it simple and elegant.
