Fashion and Beauty Basics

Hi Style Loungers!

Welcome back into the Style Lounge. Did you know that there is a 80/20 rule in fashion? Most women only wear twenty percent of the clothes in their closets? So what do you do with the other eighty percent? I know you think you wear every piece of clothing you have. Well it's not true. You actually don't. No worries, you can sell, donate, swap it or reconstruct it.

Shoes that you own that may have cracked leather, broken straps or broken heels that you love you don't have to get rid of them. No worries, shoe repair isn't a thing of the past. Take your favorite heels to the shoe repair to bring them back to life. Also, leather butter cream removes cracks and dryer sheets can be used in your existing shoes to deodorize them throughout the season. And that's not all you can also use magic eraser for shoes and sneakers to get rid of scuffs and grass stains. Quality shoes are like a good investment they will continue to bring value to you even in the long run.

It's time to talk about skin. Your skin needs a full transition from Winter to Spring. Winter weather creates dry, flaky skin. You must moisturize, hydrate and exfoliate your skin for better days. Drinking lots of water is key especially ph10 balance. Vitamin C, B3, serums, lighter moisturizers and formulas with SPF25 or greater is needed as you transition into the Spring and Summer. SPF lip balm treatment protects your lips from the sun and lipsticks that zap moisture from them. Pedicure your feet every other month for treatment of cracked heels and callouses. Change your deodorant and update your makeup by discarding makeup that you have no used for 3 months or so.

Don't be afraid to try fashion trends if you want to rock them. One of my favorites right now is the neon fashion gear. I know your thinking about the 80's every time you see someone in it. Trust me your won't look like your stuck in the 80's if you try this particular trend. Check out some of my favorite pics of those who got it right while rocking this trend. I think this one might be around for a little while.
