Capes, masks, super prints and bionic shoes are at last becoming a fashion trend. Sure you won’t be caught dead wearing the pictured outfit out about town (or will you), but what about a cute ensemble that has those same colors and the big cuffs. Yeah, you’d be in it and looking FIERCE!

New structures and new bold colors are now gracing the fashion runways. So, my question is "What’s your Super Personality?" Will you be the villain or the superhero? Seems like they are equally matched in the style and cost department. Check out some of the fashions that showed at the The Metropolitan Museum of Art:

< Shorts can come in many lengths and shapes. Depending on your age, size, and style there is a certain short you should choose. It seems that the older you get the longer your shorts should be. In fact, that is pretty correct, although there are shorts you can wear no matter what age you are and there is a stopping point on how long they get. Just because you get older doesn’t mean you have to start dressing like an old woman. Here is a brief list of the different types of shorts that are out on the market now, that can make you look and feel great at any age:

If you love purses and handbags, you must have heard of Sharif Handbags. If you haven’t you are in for a treat! So we know about Coach, D&B, Dolce and Gabbana, Louis Vuitton, the list goes on and on. But Sharif should be added to that list. He has GORGEOUS bags at a pretty nice price. A little pricey at times, but what purses aren’t these days. Hey, if it’s quality it’s well worth it.

Sharif handbags, can best be described as FABULOUS! He has every kind of bag you can think of and in unique beautiful designs and colors. He sells from Totes to Messenger bags to Wallets. If you can carry it, he sells it. If you haven’t seen any of his bags, check them out. You won’t regret it. They are WONDERFUL !

Good Luck getting one, they sell fast!

In an earlier post, I hinted at the fact that this shoe, currently by Marc Jacobs is the next big thing. Well it officially came out on runways in the NY Fashion Week in 2007 right before Winter. The only thing forward about these shoes is the fact that they are "fashion forward" right now. I wonder what everyone was thinking at that fashion show. I think "Stunned" could sum it up in one word. The shoes measuring in at 4 inches high, although quite pretty, can be nothing but horrific to walk in. Imagine wearing shoes, let me correct that HEELS, that you can never apply weight to the back of the shoe or you will come tumbling down. Perfect for Ballet Dancers maybe not so much the rest of us, you surely will perfect walking on your toes wearing these.

One positive I can think of is, it has to be one heck of  a workout for your calves. Imagine a High Heel Shoe minus the heel, it’s ridiculous, yet, oh so sexy! They seem to be slowly trickling into the mainstream and we are sure to see more and more celebrities wearing them. These are sure to be a HUGE hit fast, in the lime light fashion is everything.

Would you trade being able to stay upright with wearing gorgeous "fashionable" shoes? What can they possible think of next, no heels at all??

Have you ever broken or left your lipstick in the car, and it melted so you just threw it away because it was unusable? Well you no longer have to get rid of your lipsticks. Lipsticks can be expensive so anyway you can save them, you should.

If it melts from being in the car, don’t take the top off, just turn it upright and put it in the refrigerator for about an hour. This will reset the lipstick so you can still use it. It may not be as pretty but it still does the job.

When the lipstick stick breaks you can easily attach it back to the base, if it hasn’t completely fallen out of the tube. Heat the bottom of the lipstick with a blow dryer on low and press the lipstick back into the base of the tube. The heat should attach the lipstick to the lipstick container.

Another smart and easy trick, if you’ve used all the lipstick out of the top or broken the top of the lipstick, you can simply melt it down. You can put the lipstick in the microwave for a few seconds, just until it melts, and then pour it into a palette. It can be poured into any container you choose, like a lip gloss pot, contact lens case, or a pill case. Now you can use your lipstick with a brush. This is a neat way of getting more use out of your lipstick.

You think you love shoes, now. Wait until you see some of the hottest ones coming out for the fall. These shoes are everything but normal and boring. Take notes and add a few to your wishlist, I know I did!
