PEARL BEAUTY: Hello Glossy (@helloglossy) Creates Pearl and Tweed Nails with Inspiration from Flare Magazine
Everyone loves a great nail art job and we have found just that!
Natacha Medeiros, owner of blog, Hello Glossy created fabulous nail art with pearls! Natacha created the nails as a special request from Flare Magazine, who asked her to create a nail look using their May 2014 cover as inspiration.
“I recently got contacted by Flare (ahhhh!), one of my fav mags, to do some nails inspired by one of their recent covers, so naturally I jumped at the opportunity. I chose to emulate their most recent, May cover featuring Eva Mendes in some pretty pink tweed, silver accents and pearls with a beigy-peach backdrop. Can you tell I did just that? I hope my nails look like tweed. And I especially hope they evoke the cover! My mani will be on Flare.com sometime soon (so exciting!), so I’ll defs link back once they’re up!” Natacha stated.

ASK MS. ELITOU (PROM EDITION): How Can I Add Pearls To My Prom Wardrobe?
Ms. Elitou,
I am so excited that my prom is around the corner! I am making last minute accessory decisions and I am heavily leaning towards wearing pearls but I have no idea how to wear them. Do you have any pointers for me on wearing pearls on my prom without looking outdated?
By the way, my dress is quite similar to the one I sent.
Thanks!

Hi Kimberly!
I know that you are excited! Prom is a very special day in a teenager’s life where you get to show your maturity and style. Many do not think about it until it’s too late but shopping for prom accessories can be really overwhelming (almost as much as the dress).

PEARL FASHION: Making a Splash This Summer in Pearls and Gold
Summer is drawing near and there is nothing more exciting than a pool party where the men look hot, and the women look glamorous, sexy and captivating. There is a simple way to gain this look because true to the saying, “less is more.”
A simple black bathing suit is always a showstopper because the color is equated with mystery and power. Black is also a slimming color and accentuates all the right curves. A mono-kini bathing suit is a great style that is very trendy and shows off your sexy sides.
