mine is Eva Longoria.

i love looking forward to an event. whether its just coffee with the girls or a night out in town...coz then i get to get all excited about what to wear.

yes. i get excited about what to wear. all the time. no i'm not kidding.

but there are times when i stand in front of my closet and just stare. and stare and stare........ and stare. u get the point.

Sometimes it can be difficult to come up with kick butt outfits, and I often get asked about how you’re supposed keep up with it all. In an industry where everything changes every other day, how do you stay inspired without buying a whole new wardrobe weekly? (though i wouldn't mind. just that i'll probably have to marry a rich man and be a trophy wife in exchange. anyone know any rich old/kicking the bucket soon men?? haha.....)

There’s a lot of creativity involved in fashion – even if it’s just in choosing how you wear the few basic pieces you have. Just like artists and writers look for inspiration to keep their creativity flowing, fashionistas need inspiration too!

There are many ways to find fashion inspiration, but one easy way that i follow is to have a celebrity fashion muse.

A celebrity fashion muse is someone you look to for fashion inspiration. You can check out what this celebrity wears, take notes on how they wear different items, what colors look good on them, etc. It’s a way to keep your style current, while you learn about fashion.

Taking fashion notes from a celebrity is also a good way to get a feel for how your body type may look in different types of clothing. Want to try a pair of high-waisted pants, but aren’t sure if they’ll look right? Let your celebrity fashion muse do it first, and observe their results before you buy a pair yourself.

Why celebrities? These days, they have really amazing stylists, and are basically walking fashion editorials going to Starbucks. And because these famous people pay a professional to dress them, and have access to all the latest designer clothes, observing them is a great way to find out about the newest trends & pieces before they hit stores.

How To Pick A Celebrity Fashion Muse

So how do you go about choosing a celeb to be your fashion inspiration of the moment? Here are some points to consider when you go about finding the perfect one.

Look for someone who looks like you. In terms of hair color, height, etc. Don’t expect to find a perfect clone of yourself in Hollywood, but find someone that you identify with. eva longoria's skin tone is golden brown which suits my skin tone but i am a little darker. something i have to take into account. her hair colour is lighter than mine. she's about my height. and her eyes, pointy nose and other features are similar to mine. which is why i think she suits me :) but not everything matches so beware the differences!!

Find a celeb with a similar body type. This isn’t a must, but really helps when it comes to figuring out what types of clothes will look best on you. my figure is petite and curvy. thus, eva suits me well.

Look for a similar sense of personal style. Another bonus. If you can find a celeb who’s personal style resembles your own, that’s another great way to get inspiration and exposure to new pieces that you may like.

so go ahead. look at celebs and find whho suits you. trust me. it makes dressing a lot easier. :)

boobs. how to spot the fakers.

Credits to: By an eHow Contributor

Breast implants have become extremely popular and relatively affordable, and as the technology improves, implants have become more difficult to spot. Whether you admit it or not, you have probably found yourself wondering, once or twice, while watching TV or spying on a sexy woman in a bar, whether her breasts are real or not.

Instructions

1. Look closely for unnaturally shaped breasts. Natural breasts are never perfectly round and they move with the body. If a woman's breasts do not flatten, fall or stretch as she moves her arms or bends over, you are probably looking at fake breasts. Breast implants tend to remain stationary and hold their shape, even when a woman lies flat on her back.

   
   

   

   
   

   
   

   
   

2. Check for perfect half-circles around the top of the breasts. Natural breasts, even when placed in a push-up bra, will form a smooth natural curve at the top of the breast. Fake breasts, however, defy gravity and will reveal their perfect firm roundness at the top edges of the breast, bra or not. Keep in mind that there are some very natural looking pear-shaped breast implants these days, which are more difficult to spot by top circles alone.

   
   

   

   
   

3. Spot fake breasts by checking for jiggliness. Natural breasts are formed by fat, which is soft and pliable and tends to shake a bit with the body. If a pair of breasts look firm like toned muscle or the skin looks tight like a balloon, you are surely looking at a pair of falsies.

   
   

   

   
   

4. Determine whether the woman is wearing a bra, then check out where the breasts are hanging. The top curve of natural breasts begin at about the armpit, however many breast implants will be placed a bit higher. If the breasts are perfectly shaped and perky in the absence of a bra, they are definitely not the real thing.

   
   

   

   
   

5. Watch for other abnormalities common with fake breasts. For instance, if you notice that the nipples are pointing in different directions, the breasts are spaced too far apart or they are seriously disproportional to the woman's body, chances are she's had work done.

   
   

   

   
   

   
   

   My verdict: don't have them ladies. There are plenty of other ways to get a nice cleavage.

   
   

   More on that later.

a letter from your fan

received this email today. just though of sharing.

Hey luv,

I'm one of your subscribers and i find myself constantly looking forward to your new post. You must be wondering why i'm writing this mail to you.

Well, I just want to take time to thank you for your informative posts especially the recent one. you have no idea how much it made my day.

As being a pear shaped gal, i always feel insecure about my shape/curve. Silly me! I didn't value what i have! I used to hate my big built (i'm 5'7") and shape until i saw this line in your post : Beauty is all about confidence!


I couldn't agree more with you.. Thanks again for making me realize the truth. Hope you'll post more about pear-shaped gals or curvy Ladies in the future.

this letter made me sniff. i'm so happy i started this blog and that it gives people something to smile about.. this is exactly wat the blog was for.. for people to relate and learn with me. this is a proud moment for me. :)

to all of you who read and give me constant advice and critique, thank you.

to anyone who needs anything. advice, tips or just a listening ear.. drop me a mail. :)

love,
foxydy

booty-full babe ;)

two hot curvy mama s

i have a friend that is fuller figured and is always complaining that its tough to dress for a curvy girl. u know the kind... big boobs, big butt.. *grumbles* so this post is for her. ;)

now most curvy girls think they have it bad. our mindset has been set to thing that big is bad. really is it? some of the most beautiful women are full figured...

they just know how to dress well for their figure.

tip 1. wear a sexy belt

If you've got an hourglass figure, a fabulous belt should be your best friend. Try belts with dresses and long tops to create an illusion of a smaller waist. The belt, if snug around your waist will help flatten your tummy and give you a bit more shape.

tip 2 printed dresses.

this is the perfect camoflage for any problem areas. if u have big thighs, wear a dress that slightly flares out at the hips.. if u want to cover your arms, pick sleeves that are longer or even bell sleeves for a casual boho look.

tip 3 Wear the right jeans

If you're trying to minimize your butt or thighs, try to stick with darker washes. Additionally, look for boot cut jeans,which will flatter your curves. Skinny jeans will make your hips look really wide, while straight or wide leg jeans won't show off your shapeliness and make u look generally bigger since its one size all the way down following the biggest part of your body!!

tip 4 Use accessories to help you out

Want to bring attention upward? Try wearing some really stunning earrings, which will bring lots of attention to your face. If you're feeling self conscious. try wearing some really chunky bracelets or rings -- they'll draw attention away from your body, but not from you.

tip 5 Balance out below the belt

If you're a little on the top heavy side, you might want to consider a skirt with either flirty ruffles or an A line. Actually, even if your hips are perfectly proportional to your bust, a girly cut will still add some whimsy to your outfit -- after all, flaunting that curvy figure is all about confidence :)

so booty-full babes... flaunt your curves!

how is being a twig pretty??

somewhere along history, women were told that if we weren't stick thin...
we weren't beautiful.

a**H**es.

what is it about the stick thin women prancing around (in their underwear mostly) on the runways and bracing the covers of so and so's magazines?

Let me give u an example.

i used to watch America's Next Top Model A LOT when it first came out to our Astro.. and i used to sit there and wonder why all the Judges kept saying these girls are beautiful??

how is this astonishingly beautiful??

BUTA KA?????

conversations on fashion shows usually go like this when looking at a normal looking healthy girl..

designer: unfortunately, she doesn't look very high fashion does she?

(foxydy's high fashion definition: super scrawny, pale as hell, astonishes eyes, scarily lanky, doesn't eat. )

and this is what beauty is??

its like the fashion world is playing one big cruel joke on us normal girls. teaching us that being anything above size 0 is unacceptable and anyone bigger should take an IMMEDIATE course on the following;

1. anorexia 101.how to starve yourself and look good doing it
2. how to stick your fingers in unsightly places.. your throat!

3.laxatives.. they are your NEW BEST FRIEND.

4. hate yourself NOW. (express and COMPULSORY course)

what is it exactly? what is it that we are missing?? sometimes i sit down and wonder what is it i was missing with these scrawny clothes hangers they call top models... some look like aliens to me.

is there something that i'm not seeing that designers think is beautiful??? or maybe only they can see it and the rest just follow in pursuit of being accepted into the cool club?

its time to being home the curves ladies.

trust your instincts. beauty is all about confidence. just coz some hot shot designer says his skinny model is the mona lisa of the new age, doesn't mean he's right. it means he needs his head examined.

cool things about heels. 18SX

did u know...

1. high heels are good for your sex life.

Experts found that wearing a 3-inch heel strengthened pelvic muscles, also increasing their ability to contract--it's an effortless, on-the-go version of Kegels.

2. The average American woman owns 19 pair of shoes.

But it's likely one of those pairs will never see the outside of a closet. 60 percent of women regret at least one shoe purchase and on average women have worn a quarter of their shoes only once.

3. Almost all women routinely wear shoes that are one to two sizes too small.

88% of women are wearing shoes that are too small for their feet. The majority of women haven't been measured for the correct shoe size in the past five years, and since shoe size often increases with weight gain and age, many women stick with a size they've outgrown.

4. Who invented the contemporary stiletto?

The contemporary stiletto was invented in the 1950s by Italian shoe designer Salvatore Ferragamo, who made his first pair for Marilyn Monroe in alligator skin. The models back then were tame by today's standards, with heels no higher than about 3 inches.

5. How many hours per year does the average women spend shopping for shoes?

Women spend 40 hours and 30 minutes shopping for shoes every year, over the course of 15 shoe shopping trips.

6. What percentage of women said they were willing to give up sex in exchange for a really great pair of shoes?

22 percent would be willing to give up sex, 36 percent would give up chocolate, and 37 percent would take the shoes over a nice dinner out.

7. Historians believe the modern-day high heel originates from the chopine, a platform shoe, worn by women in Florence in the 16th century. The platform was often two feet high.

Venetian prostitutes often wore chopines. The platform shoes elevated the prostitutes, who often lingered in dark doorways waiting for potential customers, to a height which would make them noticeable.

8. Shoe fiend Darlene Flynn earned her title as Guinness World Record holder for the largest collection of shoe-related items. Over the course of 6 years, how many pieces of shoe memorabilia did she amass?

Darlene Flynn owns 7,765 shoe-related items, including a replica of the Disney Cinderella glass slipper, wooden shoes, leather moccasins, cloth shoes, cast iron boots, a red-stiletto shoe phone, and even a shoe made from the ash collected at Mount St. Helen's eruption.
