All hail McQueen! The dresses at Met gala last night

And so it went last night, at the fashion industry’s biggest red carpet event, the Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala. The Met Gala is known for spawning some of the most unique and daring red carpet looks of the year, and last night's festivities proved that very notion once again. Last night's theme was Savage Beauty , honoring the late Alexander McQueen. I have to admit i totaly forgot about this event, which is more famous for us, fashion lovers, than the Oscar's red carpet extravaganza. Celebrities go all out, there are lots of them (more than at the Oscars, not only the actresses and actors... actors don't actually really count, they always wear suits or tux's aka nothing interesting ...). Met Gala invites them all: actors, singers, models, socialittes, TV stars.... every known name in the show bussines. So how did all the celebrities honoured the fabuolous McQueen? It was pomp and circumstance, but in the most respectful way. And considering...

Doing your own bridal beauty when two billion people are watching is a brave move

I know, you are all probobly sick to hear about all the Royal Wedding stuff, you all probobly know, that Kate... a-hem! sorry... Catherin Middleton Duchess of Cambridge seemingly did her own makeup on the big day and all that jazz that all the mass media were reporting like crazy, but since i am a research freak, i did my best to get all the details on the look of the Royal bride. It’s a brave move to decide to do your own bridal beauty, especially when there are two billion people scrutinising your every move. Watching everything filmed in HD, where it's possible to see every tiny mistake. This was not the time for experimenting. But she is very good at her own make-up, and she was reportidly taking lessons and consulting with a proffesional make up artist, refusing to hire her on a big day itself, cause according to ''insiders'' Kate wanted to have as little people around her in the important morning as possible. The result?  Yes, there was a touch more ...

Off topic - We should stop teaching little girls this nonsense!!!

There's a kindergarten literally in my yard, i can hear and see everything that little kids do or say, whether i want it or not. They sometimes kinda make me mad, by taking children out to play at like 10a.m. when i am still in my deepest sleep phase and their playful yelling and chattering makes me wake up all grungy, but most of the time i love that i can see kids playing and having a great time. What pisses me off is the adults - the kindergarten teachers. I still cannot believe what i heard today! It was the exact phrase from the movie ''He's Just Not That Into You''. I thought this kind of nonsense stopped like ten years ago and women want little girls to grow up smarter than that. So let me paint the picture for you: I did not saw what happened prior that, but it's quite obvious that one little boy did something mean to this little girl who ran to her teacher all sad and chocked up. I believe he either pushed her, or said something mean to her.. ...

Eyelash extensions. Is it worth it?

The Accident Yesterday i got a facebook message from one of my besties with a cry for help - I just pulled out most of my eyelashes on one eye! What am i supposed to do now?? Yes, the same question popped in my head too - HOW?? Well, she said.... ''I used dirty eyelash curler with leftover mascara residue on it it got stuck on my lashes and i somehow just pulled it and... my lashes went all out with it.'' Let this be a lesson to all of us! Always make sure your beauty utensils are as clean as possible. Otherwise instead of helping make you pretty, they will just do damage. So what is there to do, when you get involved in some eyelash pulling accident, or just can't swagger about long-ass thick and beautiful eyelashes? The Answer (?) For a couple of years now there is such thing in the beauty world as eyelash extensions. Just like hair extensions they add length, thickness and fullness to natural eyelashes. Synthetic single fiber polyester thread-like material...

Oscars '11 fashion. Are you f * # king kidding me??

  I was so excited to finally see how all the celebrity chickas dressed up this year for the biggest awards ceremony. I mean, Academy Awards fashion is always stunning in one way or another. It's amazing to see how movie stars, or just... stars goes all out to make sure that all the press the other morning has huge print of them in all their prime sparkling and shining in the most gorgeous outfits. So i was unable to watch the red carpet cause i reeealy needed to get some sleep for today, so as soon as i gotten home from college i checked all the outfits on VOGUE website. They have them all in HD and even with magnyfing glass option which works sooo good you can actually see EVERY tiny detail or even prominent thread. Click here to be redirected but come back to me so we can discuss the dresses. Unfortuantly i couldn't be more dissapointed in this year fashion choices of the starlets... What the hell happened? Is it just me or all the dresses really looked like ripped off cur...
