Ever looked at some pictures and marvelled at how effortlessly chic
and glam some ladies manage to look all the time? From their
well-pouted lips to their perfectly-pedicured toes, they look stunning
without seeming to have tried too hard. Well ladies, it’s not rocket
science so marvel not. All it takes is a little mixing and matching with
careful attention to detail.
So, with the weekend upon us, we present to you quick tips to
transform your outfit from girl-next-door to diva in an instant
as you hit the town. Get out those notepads now!
- Statement accessories: nothing transforms an outfit faster than a statement accessory especially neck pieces. They give your outfit that added oomph, transforming
a plain old t-shirt/tank top to a very pretty top. Remember though,
that the key to a great outfit lies in understanding the art of mixing
and matching. Learn to create a focal point; so for instance, if you’re
going to don an over the top neck piece, then keep your earrings simple
so you don’t drown the outfit. Also if you’re going with cocktail
rings, ensure you have well-manicured nails to further accentuate your
fingers.
- Red Lips: there’s a reason why we didn’t just lump
this up along with make-up tips in general and thats because nothing
makes a statement louder than red lips. Its says: “I’m a sexy, confident
and fearless woman”. From the beginning of time, the red lipstick has
served as the ultimate symbol of the uber sexy, confident woman and in
recent times, its made an even stronger appearance on the fashion scene
in these parts. However, the key to rocking the red lips lies in finding
the right shade to suit your skin colour and once you find it, don’t be
afraid to let out your inner goddess!
- Nail polish: why go around with scraggy,
unmanicured nails with the exciting colours of nail polishes available
in the market these days? Add a pop of colour to your outfit with
vibrant and well-manicured nails.
- Heels: much like the red lips, the heels make a
loud and clear statement instantly transforming not just your outfit but
also your entire demeanor. So for a good measure of confidence, throw
on a pair of heels to lend that va va voom feel to your outfit.
- Shades: lucky for us all, the sun is blazing these
days. So why not shield your eyes and also get your celebrity mode on
with shades? Again, the key is to find the right pair of shades to suit
the shape of your face so the whole purpose of getting glammed up does
not end up getting defeated.
- Playful hair-packing: so you have on braids or hair
extensions or even your natural hair? Rather than wear it the plain,
old way, get in front of the mirror and practice packing it in a
completely different and funky way.
- Attitude: above all you need to project the right
attitude. Its not enough to have on the right make-up and clothes and
still act dowdy. Remember that a confident woman is a sexy woman!
Enjoy!!
