Summer Flings 2018

2018-07-31T18:16:00.001-07:00

Hello Fashionistas!

On the last day of July, I'll officially say welcome to August! How's your summer so far dolls? Hope it's fashionably great.

So a few things I saw this season that I'm calling flings because like the actual term, these items aren't lasting long but while they're here...why not indulge and enjoy!!!!!

NETTED BAGS
Soooo I know I've seen netted clothes and shoes aka mesh but seeing these net bags just somehow reminds me of the islands seeing fish nets draped over fishing boats. It's a great accent this summer to your outfits.

PASTEL ROMPERS & JUMPSUITS

It's summer and light colours just add a certain pizzaz to your life. So Cosmo mag reported that rompers and jumpsuits in baby blue, mint, lavender are just a hot item!

I'm definitely going to indulge. Why not! One life yal! As always Have Fun and Be Creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

HOTTT New Spring Beauty 2018

2018-05-15T18:31:00.000-07:00

Hey Fashionistas!

Mother's Day is already over and I hope you had time to get a thoughtful beauty gift for your mom. If you weren't able to do so, offering to cook or do her makeup or mani and pedi is just as thoughtful for her.

As Spring continues, there are new beauty items that really caught my eyes amongst the others featured regular and they are as follows:

SMASHBOX VLADA COLLECTION
Vlada Haggerty, an Instagram makeup artist in collab with Smashbox launched and awesome line called the petal metal collection. This set is a rich metallic rose or rose gold colour that includes...

shimmer spray
highlighter
shimmer drops
liquid eyeliner
palette
liquid petal metal (lipstick)
petal metal matte (lipstick)
primer

Waw! What a rose gold series of products and they are the most sort after cosmetics. Ofcourse 3 of these items will cost you over $100US, so it'll be best to choose your best used item and splurge on it. For instance if your a lip girl then try either the liquid or matte formulas; If you love to glow then maybe the shimmer drops, shimmer spray or highlighter might be your holy grail.

COVER FX GLITTER DROPS

Sequins are already in for Spring. So how else can you wear sequins on your face? Well glitter is like the smaller form of sequins and for those of you obsessed with glitter, Cover FX created customized glitter drops which can be used...well however you want to. It's available in 3 shades.

URBAN DECAY BEACHED

Is there a break when creative geniuses stop creating fabulous invigorating palettes that call your soul? Urban Decay didn't wait to launch their 1st summer collection palette called Beach where the 8 colours really give you that beach, summer, sun, sea, sand type of vibe. I can hear Sheryl Crow's song being played while applying these colours and because I'm a sucker for bright hues, this palette really calls to all the colour freaks!

These few items really are hot items for Spring and as I say, you got 1 life, just live it! As always Have Fun and Be Creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Quick & Thoughtful Beauty Gifts for Mom- 2018

2018-05-09T09:58:00.003-07:00

Hi there Fashionistas!

So in a few days will be mother's day and if you are fortunate to have a mother or mother figure in your life, it's another day to honor her, like a 2nd Christmas. Parents play a very important role from the beginning to the end of our lives and everyday is a day to cherish them.

We know every mother's day magazines, flyers and ads show the usual gifts for mom...perfumes, jewelry, clothes etc. You can still get those but you want to be a little in tune to your mom's likes and dislikes.

PERFUME
Don't just buy a new perfume because it's new. Find out which scents she loves. For instance she may love fruity smells or woodsy smells because she loves the outdoors. Narrow it down so she'll notice how thoughtful you were with choosing.

COSMETICS
Another thoughtful idea is look at the colours your mom usually wear on her face. She may not like the super bright pigments of eyeshadows and lipsticks but more of a natural beauty look that offers a glow. So choose earth tone colours that keep her happy with her appearance.
-NARS: has a NARSissist Power Pack Lip Kit that'll be great for her to carry in her purse with choices ranging from nude to hot red!

-TOO FACED: launched their NATURAL beauty collection with an array of warm earth tones for eyes, lips and cheeks. Your mom may not need the whole collection but try to see what she loves to show best...maybe she loves to show her eyes more, then get her the Natural Eyes Neutral Eyeshadow Collection or if she loves her lips to show then a few colours from the Natural Nude Intense Colour Coconut Butter Stick. If she loves showing her cheekbones then Natural Face Highlilght Blush and Bronzing palette will be a delight!

This post I wanted to emphasize that in choosing gifts, let's be more thoughtful and the saying is true, it is the THOUGHT that counts. Wishing all moms A HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY from A. Nichelle & Co. This is FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

In Living Spring Colours- Spring 2018

2018-04-24T19:33:00.002-07:00

Hello Fashionistas!

There're more Spring colours to add to your Spring wardrobe. We tackled Icy blues before but now welcome a burst of hues with teal, green, purple, lilac and vibrant tomato red.

These colours can be mixed together...teal and red, teal and green, green and purple, green and red or just by themselves with basic whites or rose.You can find these colours in store or on your favorite sites like go jane, fashion nova, asos, agaci etc.

Bring out your Colours because Spring is hurrrr!

GREEN

TEAL

PURPLE & LAVENDER

TOMATO RED

Mix and match or choose a colour for each week just because. I encourage you all to just enjoy your life by having fun and being creative! This is FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Dots and Checks- Spring 2018

2018-04-11T08:52:00.000-07:00

Spring is here but I don't know if the weather got the memo for some places who are still getting snow and winter-like weather. Hmmmm! Global Warming I guess.

So regardless of the weather, act like you're enjoying the change of season. Spring is about new life, bright colours and fresh beginnings and these 2 styles are back within a year to be apart of the season's styles- The polka dot and the checkered Gingham print.

Polka dot
The origin is still not known as many fashion gurus derive many theories of its creation but what is known is that it came out in fashion as early as the 1800s! Now these dots are seen everywhere on anything from clothing to shoes, accessories etc and come in various sizes.

Gingham
Originally shipped to England from India in a stripped print in the 17th century, when England started manufacturing the print itself it became the weaving of 2 different coloured threads in a checkered pattern. Like the polka dot, gingham also comes in varied squares.

These styles surfaced not too long ago last year and for some of you, you may not have to go futher than your closet or drawers to rep one of these styles for Spring.
As always, Have Fun and Be creative! This is FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Fashion Trends pt. 2 - Springs 2018

2018-03-20T06:02:00.004-07:00

Halo Fashionistas!

As I continue the 2nd installment of Fashion Trends, I really love these pieces that are out for Spring and they are definitely fun and spring-like in terms of the cut and colours. So what else is out for the Spring season you may ask? Well see below for a taste:

RUFFLES
This gathering of material is so fun and flirty whether it's a one shoulder top, skirt or romper, it is a great piece to accentuate your body. Ruffles aren't new to the fashion scene so you may have had some ruffled pieces somewhere in your closet or you can check out online or in store such as asos, forever 21, gojane, target, macys etc.

ICY BLUE
This colour is a great transition from icy winter into pastel Spring. ofcourse I know this colour by other names such as baby blue, powder blue or pastel blue. However there's a reason why 1 colour may have various names...it's because there is a slight difference in how of the colour there is. I presume "icy" blue may mean more white mixed in with baby blue lol. Anyways, Wear this colour by itself, pair it with other colours or just accessorize with it.

Get your Spring-on and don't wait for people to wear these pieces before you do ! As always, Have Fun and Be Creative. THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Fashion Trend- Spring 2018

2018-03-13T05:31:00.000-07:00

Spring is approaching and I love that some styles has resurfaced and even showcased away from their usual season of wear. Amongst the many styles, I love these 2- the feathers and the sequins.

FEATHERING
This isn't new to the style portfolio. I love the fact that it has expanded to clothing and accessories. I love also that it comes in different colours and mix well with any pattern of cloth whether plain colours or prints. I would suggest that clothing with feathered trims are to be washed on the gentle cycle or dry cleaned.

SEQUINCING

Sequins are not just for the Christmas holidays or new year's! The glitz has extended to the Spring season in various colours and sizes. Sparkle with an all in one romper or break it up with plain colours. You can be sequinced in clothing, accessories and shoes. BRING ON THE SHINE!

Stay tuned for a few more resurfaced styles that are just cute additions for Spring 2018. As always Have Fun and Be Creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Feb Beauty Faves 2018

2018-02-20T18:38:00.000-08:00

Hola Fashionistas!

February brought a few newbies that are definitely beautilicious. Check below:

TARTE SHAPE TAPE FOUNDATION

Tarte brought out their shape tape concealer and with good reviews and out of stock sales, they released their foundation. The only thing was their "deep" colours for melanin girls weren't deep enough...I guess they left all that work to Fenty.

MAC HYPER REAL GLOW PALETTE

Everybody got highlighters but you gotta up the game with each product out there. So MAC launched a 3 tone highlighter palette in 2 shades and it says its soft and creamy to highlight wherever.

OPI LISBON COLLECTION

Opi launched 12 shades of pinks and reds with a touch of green and blue for their Lisbon Collection 2018.

As always, have fun and be creative! THIS is FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Brightly Coloured Jewelry- Jan 2018

2018-01-31T06:27:00.001-08:00

Halo Fashionistas!

As we're still in the winter season, some of us are still experiencing cold weather and it can be a little dreary dealing with low temps and longer darker days. This weather is great for apples and grapes but it can take a toll on your fashion as you strive to stay warm.

So I loved how Cosmo mag posted a great fashion trend in the accessories department...Candy Coloured Jewelry. Thinking of spring and summer fruits like cherries, oranges, kiwis, lemons, bannanas, strawberries, plums etc displayed in jewelry is one quick way to brighten your day.

For those who have continuous warm weather, I'm happy for you guys and also spread the warmth with these brightly coloured jewels as well. Check amazon.com, charmingcharlie.com, aliexpress.com, shamelesslysparkly.com.

You've probably seen these already but the colours are more vibrant this season. Indulge a bit. As always, Have Fun and Be Creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

New Year New Beauty- Jan 2018

2018-01-07T15:48:00.001-08:00

HAPPY NEW YEAR FASHIONISTAS!

Welcome to 2018!

I was a tad busy for the month of December and unfortunately there were no postings for Christmas into New Year's eve. That's ok, I pick up for January 2018 and I hope everyone had a great holiday season. For those of us in North America, experiencing the full or tail end effect of the blizzard, I hope you stay warm and boost up on the immune boosters as that's weather to catch that cold in.

So glancing through new beauty products, here are some that really caught my eyes to start the new year with:

MAC SCENTED PREP and PRIME

I swear....there is always an evolution of something. Depending on your level of makeup, this may or may not intrigue you but the mere fact your primer spray can be scented just adds more excitement to actually want to wear makeup. So MAC launched flavours such as Rose, Coconut and Lavender setting sprays which can be used before and after your makeup look. They're about $26 US each and should last you for a time unless you wear makeup twice a day, 7 days a week. For those of you not into scents, well the original still exists.

LORAC LOS ANGELES PRO MATTE PALLETTE
These are just a hot buy right now since they're pocket size and comes in natural tones. Great for work during the day and at night for dinner or drinks.

URBAN DECAY ALL NIGHTER CONCEALER

The best about these are that they're water proof and full coverage. This formula is a magnet for those who want long wearing makeup that wouldn't transfer much and this sounds like it can perform such a task as it claims to be wearable for a 24 hour period.Since it's full coverage this can definitely wear as a foundation and set with powder or that scented MAC prep and prime fix spray!

SMASHBOX ALWAYS ON METALLIC MATTE LIQUID LIPSTICK
It's such a long name but the point is to give you as much bang for your buck since it's:
- metallic
-matte
-liquid
-stays on
It's available in 12 shades and go for about $24 US each.

It's a great start to 2018 with these beauty products. Have a great week Fashionistas and as always Have Fun and Be Creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

New Makeup Gifts for Christmas 2017

2017-11-19T18:28:00.003-08:00

Hallo Fashionistas!

So Thanksgiving is about 4 days away and I'm sure everybody is up to date with all the makeup deals and steals coming out for the holidays (especially from the Ulta catalog) including Stila Glitter and Glow liquid eyeshadows, Anastasia Prism eyeshadow palette, Urban Decay Heavy Metallic palette or the Becca Apres Ski Glow face palette.

But there are some new kids on the block that are definitely gift worthy either for your gift list or.... yourself (wink wink).

TARTE MAGIC STAR COLLECTOR SET
I'm guessing the name comes from the fact that when you open the collection it is in the shape of a 4 point star!
This set to me, is for those who are now familiarizing themselves with makeup and want to access everything in one area. The eyeshadow palette comes in a lovely selection of colours from black to golds to white, the end corners are furnished for cheeks with blush and highlight, accessorized with a mascara, lips and eyeliner. Just an organized one stop shop.

TOO FACED PRETTY LITTLE PLANNER
This is also a set of earth tone colours- reds, pinks, grays, in a palette along with an actual year planner for 2018, some cool stickers and ofcourse a mini "better than sex" mascara. I love the title of the planner...WAKE UP, MAKEUP, REPEAT!

NYX MEET THE METALLICS VAULT
I'm an NYX fanatic because they have great lip products for an affordable price. This set combines some awesome berry and nude colours from the dark burgundy to browns. If I'm not mistaken, this is a great steal for $25.

I think I'm gonna splurge on a few. Meanwhile, for those in the USA, I would like to wish you a HAPPY THANKSGIVING and this is a great opportunity to show how grateful you are for all you have and even what you don't have. As always, Have Fun and Be Creative. THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Blue- Fall 2017

2017-11-14T15:04:00.002-08:00

Hello Fashionistas!

This post is beyond short because I saw in Cosmo mag, another colour for fall is BLUE, my favorite colour!

It's not just a type of blue, it's different hues of blue (lightest to darkest) either worn together or separate and the colour is very prominent in either clothing or accessories.

I'm quite sure this is a colour that you have in your closet an if not then you need to splurge on some blue hunny. As always have fun and be creative...especially it's the holidays! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Fall Fashion Forward 2017- Pt. 2

2017-10-22T18:26:00.001-07:00

Hello Fashionistas,

So we're back this week for part 2 and Fall brings out another lovely colour for the season along with which boots or booties should you be rocking. Thanks to Cosmo mag, they specified which booties are in. Some of these you may have already in your closet and if not, it's an awesome time to snab a few pairs from either online or in stores.

BLUSH- no not for your cheeks but another Fall colour!

BOOTIES

Western

Rubber-rugged

Kitten

Slouchy

Whether the temps changed or not, you can still rock these styles. As usual, have fun and be creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Fall Fashion Forward 2017

2017-10-15T17:55:00.002-07:00

Hola Fashionistas!

I've been out a bit because I participated in something called Miami Carnival. Carnival for those who don't know, is a street festival like Mardi Gras where you wear a costume and parade with music on a truck. In Miami we don't get the street, we get a huge park which is good enough I guess but it does not compare to the original carnival in Trinidad and Tobago.

So we're in the Fall season and you've gotten a taste of the makeup that's out and about including Rihanna's 40 foundation makeup collection, Fenty, now it's time to touch base with the fashion side. So here's what out:

LUREX- stretchy and shiny material

VINYL- Glossy like patent

RED- Santa's colour of the season

I like what I'm seeing for Fall especially as it preps you for the Christmas season. As always, Have Fun and Be Creative. THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

New Makeup Pt. 2- Fall 2017

2017-09-24T15:37:00.000-07:00

Hello Fashionistas!

As of Fri 22 Sept. 2017 it is officially Fall. So this blog continues with the makeup that's out for Fall 2017 and it just keeps getting better and better and more creative. Have a look below:

CLINIQUE FIT

My Oh My! I think 1 of my dreams came through. I love wearing makeup and wear it everywhere possible except for situations where I"ll sweat up a storm. Sweating and makeup = a massive breakout for my skin so I avoid that. But Clinique probably read our fashionista minds and created a line of makeup that stays in place while being active...HIGH 5 CLINIQUE! You really think about healthy skin for makeup lovers!

MAC PERSONALITY PALETTES

This is as creative as you can get with makeup. Mac came up with 4 personality palettes for gals who wear certain colours all the time or depending on your mood. So for the those who like the natural look all the time especially for work there's POWER HUNGRY. If you like colour but still light and nude-ish there's the PRISSY PRINCESS palette. For those who like warm colours...which will be bomb for the Fall season, there's MISCHIEF MINX and for those who love a smokey eye no matter the time of day, DARK & SMOKEY was made for you. What's your personality?

PUR MY LITTLE PONY PALETTE- Limited Edition!

This was the cutest palette I've seen maybe because of the name and also the colours. I loved my little pony tv show back in the day when you believed animals can talk and the palette's colours is an great representation of each colour of each pony. Wonderful idea!

Makeup for Fall 2017 took it up a notch and I'm loving it...I'm definitely gonna be purchasing the clinique fit!

As always, Have Fun and Be Creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

New Makeup- Fall 2017

2017-09-17T15:09:00.000-07:00

Hola Fashionistas!

Well it has been a while because as we welcomed September, here comes hurricane Irma to Florida, which is where yours truly reside. I knew something was brewing in the Caribbean but I refused to believe that it was coming this way. But as I stepped off my flight from NYC, I was hit with...Irma is coming to Florida and as a Category 5. Now I didn't experience hurricane Andrew which was a Cat 5 and destroyed Florida but now Irma was twice the size of Andrew and ofcourse panic mode began. Making sure shutters were on, having enough food supplies, water and gas....prepping for a hurricane is stress. Should I have evacuated? I could have but my family are here and we hunkered down and stayed positive. The closer Irma came, she changed her path so instead of a direct hit, we got the outer bands weather which was still much but it did damage in the Caribbean and Key West islands and Florida had many without electricity. But we remain Florida Strong!

Soooo as I return to fashion normalcy. Fall has some snazzy makeup to indulge in. Lots of semi dark colours that blends in with the season.

I WANT KANDEE COLLECTION- by Too Faced Beauty Influencer Kandee Johnson
-Candy Eyes Palette: a mixture of neutrals

-Melted Matte Lipstick

-Candy Liner Black Licorice eyeliner

-Banana Pudding Brightening Face Powder- smells like bananas

TARTE FRESH FACE- a 4 piece kit that's best to travel with or carry in your bag

BECCA CHAMPAGNE POP HIGHLIGHTERS

Stay tuned for part 2. These are definitely splurge worthy. As you await part deux, Have Fun and Be Creative. THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

New Fall Lips 2017

2017-08-13T17:45:00.000-07:00

Halo my dear Fashionistas!

As August and summer start dwindling down and the school term is about to re-open, for us glam girls we have some new lip products to test and spurge on for Fall 2017.

NARS-Narsissist Velvet Lip Glide Set
So you're traveling and your not sure which lip colour to travel with? Well Nars got you with their Velvet Lip set of 5 colours on the berry side that's best for on the go. Problem solved! It is limited edition so you gotta jump on this train ASAP!

TOO FACED Melted Latex Liquefied High Shine Lipstick
So we all know how well the Melted lip colours were. For Fall, they amped their game up by taking these lip colours to another level as latex liquefied high shine. You can't get glossier than that! There's 15 shades to choose from.

NYX Slip Tease Lip Oil
I love how NYX always add something to the creativity plate of cosmetics. Lip Oil from NYX is a mixture pigment rich colour that goes on silky and dries like a satin matte.So it's not quite oil but gives the illusion that there's a type of oil shine when applied.

Stay tuned for more New Fall beauty products. This is FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Pre-Fall Goodies 2017

2017-08-06T16:21:00.000-07:00

So even though August just started, it's already considered pre-fall. Summer is still around because I can feel that summer stifling heat but we do have some goodies to look forward to that you can play and portray.

ANIMAL PRINT

URBAN DECAY NAKED HEAT PALETTE
A mixture of warm colours that give you that summer into fall feeling.

TOO FACED GLITTER BOMB PALETTE
Super fun glitzy colours for that summer into fall.

This is just a taste but as usual I say indulge just a bit...Have and Be Creative. THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

SUMMER OUTFITS 2017- Pt. 2

2017-07-23T16:37:00.002-07:00

Fashionistas!

As we're into the last of July and I'm sure you're having a time at the beach and other outdoor events. The summer sun is not kind but at least you have snazzy outfits to chill out in. So part 2 brings us to a couple more styles of the mid dress and cold shoulders.

MID-DRESS:

A dress that reaches from knees to mid shin for the right balance to wear with heels or flats.

COLD SHOULDER:

A top, shirt, dress or romper where the shoulders are exposed.

I'm loving these fun styles....I may splurge on a few (lol). In the meantime, have fun and be creative. This is FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

SUMMER OUTFITS 2017- Pt. 1

2017-07-09T14:53:00.000-07:00

Halo Fashionistas!

Summer is officially here and I'm loving the cutesy outfits I'm seeing this year. For a while rompers have been out but this summer flower patterned wide leg rompers are the latest summer trend. Whether off the shoulder, cold shoulder, tube cut or halter are all fun styles to incorporate in this summer's wear.

Another patterned style that I'm absolutely loving is the matching 2 piece...top and pants or top and skirt. Mostly the tops are cropped and the pants can be shorts, wide legs or skinny fit. The skirts can be flare whether short or long or pencil high waist. Cute ideas for the summer.

Now, what kind of makeup would you wear with these outfits? It can go from neutral to dramatic but I won't get started on makeup as I'm a colourful, dramatic makeup person. What I would suggest is the newest colours for your summer mani and pedi will come from Essie's "Wild Nudes" collection. I guess with all the colours for summer...I guess your nails and toes can be a little toned with some cool nude colours.

I really like what summer is bringing out this year and I hope everyone gets a chance to indulge and be super cute this summer. As always, have fun and be creative. THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Swimsuit I.D. 2017- Part 3

2017-06-18T17:25:00.000-07:00

Hallo Fashioistas!

So swim I.D. continues and this week we'll talk about hiding that stomach and masking a big butt and hips.

CAMOUFLAGE:

Tummy-
If your tummy may not as flat as you desire according to the models you see in swimsuit mags, then you can hide it with high waist bikini bottoms, tankini or a whole suit in a pattern or dark colours Remember dark colours minimize. These are also awesome to appear as if the torso is elongated.

Big butt and huge hips-
I think women should embrace their curves and rolls or however their body may be but if you choose to, skirt bikini bottom will assist in hiding the size of your hips or booty.

I hope the Swim I.D. series has been helpful so far to get you ready for summer as it's around the corner and looking cute at the beach or pool is a necessity!

As always, have fun and be creative. THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!

Swimsuit I.D. 2017- Part 2

2017-06-11T14:17:00.001-07:00

Hellloooo Fashioistas!

I'm not sure where you are but I am feeling the summer season inching in. Unless you're in South Africa where you are experiencing winter now, other places may be feeling the hot, sunny, weather!

Ofcourse summer says swimsuits and last week I touched briefly on swimsuits for slim and plus size girls. This week I'll touch on how to camouflage or accentuate a body part.

CAMOUFLAGE

Large Boobs:

Big chested is not a bad thing at all; you're just blessed tremendously. If you think you have too much and are showing too much, a great way to camo it is by using dark colours or patterns.

Dark colours- minimize

Patterns- draw eyes away from the size and focus on the print.

Broad Shoulders:
For girls who have an upside down triangle shape where your shoulders are wider than your hips, try swimsuits with racerbacks or halters. It create balance.

ACCENTUATE:
Small Boobs
Always be happy with what God blessed you with. He knew what you can handle. To give volume to your small chested area you can wear padded triangle cut bikini tops or ruffled tops in bright colours!

For those who don't know, maybe this I.D. can help you choose the best bathing suit for your body. Next week we'll cover more.

As for now, have fun and be creative! THIS IS FASHIONISTA NEWZ!
