We all know that men are no longer those poor, lost souls when it comes to fashion or, as a matter of fact, to most things that have been, until now, deemed "feminine" par excellence. Which is why, since they do make the best cooks, hair and makeup stylists, and designers, we should probably also listen to what they have to say when it comes to some of the fashion trends that are sweeping the world (and dragging along millions of women in the process) like crazy.Now, some of what follows are probably items that many women would not even consider donning in the first place - so don't expect something new, or anything close to some sort ...

And it would seem that as much as the strict tennis aficionados might hate it, tennis tournaments are as much about the beauty of the game as they are about its celebrities. So, when Serena Williams stepped onto Court 1 yesterday wearing a fashionable white trench-coat style jacket (although there wasn't a cloud in sight), it become clear that the leading ladies of the game have once again raise... [read more >>] We all know what the "overstuffed makeup bag" syndrome is all about, but if you're in need of some clarification, open any woman's cosmetics kit or go through her bathroom cabinets and have a look at her vanity table as well - you'll soon understand what "too much makeup" really means. And it's natural - good-quality cosmetics cost a lot of money and we definitely want to get our money's worth from them. That and the fact that we get easily bored with things such as eyeshadow quads and always crave for newer, shinier, better ones, explain the array of things we keep without actually using them regularly.One thing th...

Arm in arm with her equally famous partner turned world's-most-famous-Daddy Brad Pitt, Angie is moving on with her extraordinary life, promoting her movies, traveling the world and getting ready for the arrival of her twins.And as always, the world - that is, all of us - is ready and willing to be swept away on the wings of the purest celebrity fantasy by this beautiful pregnant woman, who on top of glowing with pride ...

Never one to fear making a bold statement with her outfits, Parker has turned herself into a veritable self-styled fashionista and has wowed and raised eyebrows alike over the years with her choice of garments and accessories. Last night's premiere of "Sex and the City", which took place in London, was no exception. The four leading female stars hit the red carpet in London in cleverly tailored designer gowns, but once again it was Parker who stoo...

Not Kim Kardashian, though. The reality TV star and socialite has turned her epic journey into the realms of laser cellulite treatment into a topic for one of the episodes of her TV show, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians", and has shared her experience with the world via her own personal blog. Apparently, Kim got tired of posing as a perfectly groomed celebrity whose flawless skin - thighs included - is "all-natural" ...

Praised by some as life-turning instruments for gaining self-esteem and looking good, diet pills are hailed by others as deadly chemicals that can wreck havoc inside our bodies and very likely kill us. Today, I'm going to talk to you about one of the most commonly used weight loss drugs out there, a little blue and white pill that goes by the name of phentermine. Phentermine is closely related to amphetamines and works as an appetite suppressant. Its main function is to stimulate the release of brain chemicals that effectively reduce sensatio... [read more >>] We're all familiar with Pinkberry, Hollywood's favorite upscale franchise of frozen desert restaurants that boasted a healthy, natural (and pricey) alternative to the popular but old-fashioned ice cream. Trouble is, most of the brand's advertising was centered around the claim that Pinkberry was an all-natural snack; however, it recently turned out that it's not actually meeting the California Department of Food and Agriculture's definition of frozen yogurt since it does not contain the necessary amount of bacterial cultures per ounce. Which basically means that what most of us believed was a frozen yogurt is actual... [read more >>] |
