Accesorize Boldly
It is true that an accessory can make or break an outfit, so a lot of time should be put into finding the right one. With that said they should also be fun and express your personality. One area to start with is your earrings. Owl earrings are great for an eccentric bohemian look. A classic girl will love bow earrings. Someone who had a lot of sass can pull off large hoop earrings. While a rocker chick can sport spike hoops.

Keeping Whites White
Not too long ago there was a post about wearing whites. The only problem with that is that white gets dirty real easy. So here is a couple pointers on keeping your whites at their whitest. The first trick is to soak the stain in hydrogen peroxide. You can dilute it in water if you wish. Another is to wait until the washer machine is full of water then put two aspirin in the water. The last tip is to soak the piece of clothing in vinegar and water; for every cup of water there should be one tablespoon of vinegar.

Wing It Out
Winged eyeliner is a very classic look. It can be worn at any event or at anytime. It was a favorite of legends like Selena Quintanilla. It is also the go-to look of Rihanna. It is simple to achieve, all you need is gel liner and a eyeliner brush. Line from the inner corner to the outer corner and wing it out. If you want a funkier look then use purple, blue or teal. For a sassy look add red lips and for understated glamour wear nude lips. Here is a picture of Lisa Logrono (Sokina Intern) rocking the look with red lips.

White Hot
Head to toe white is a hard look to pull off but if it is done right it will look absolutely chic.
The first thing to make sure of is that the material is not see-through. The second is to wear nude
colored underwear.If you are going for a more casual look then wear metallic shoes and natural make-up. A glam look would consist of dark lipstick, high heels and a sleek haristyle.

Every Girl Loves A Great Tee !
T-shirts are a great way to stay cool but still look great. Lauren Conrad is famous for making a t-shirt look fabulous by dressing the t-shirt up with a nice skirt and heels. It can also be dressed up by wearing high waisted pants and big jewelry or worn casual with jeans or a pair of cargo or a flirty skirt and flats and less accessories.

Show It Off
Rompers are a great way to show skin but still cover-up. You can wear them on a casual day with the family or dress them up and wear them out. They cinch at the waist so they give the illusion of an hour glass figure (which is absolutely gorgeous). They come in an array of colors and patterns. A woman who wants more of a bohemian look can wear a bright purple romper with over-sized glasses and embellished gladiator sandals. A woman with a more classic approach can wear a strapless white or gray romper with simple sandals and simple jewelry. The glamorous girl can wear a black romper with metallic heels and wavy hair.

Protection Is Perfection
It is summer and it is scorching hot. No matter what your skin tone you must wear sunblock. The sun rays are harmful and can cause immediate and later damage. Also make sure to re-apply it every hour. The best is to have a sunblock with a 30spf for everyday and a 50spf for the pool and the beach. It will keep your skin looking younger and healthier for more years to come.

Suit Up
Summer is here, so that means bathing suit time. This can be a stressful season for some women but not to worry, it can be easy and painless. First and foremost find a style that fits your body type. A halter top is best for a busty woman. A woman who has more on the bottom can benefit from a bottom with a skirt. Sometimes we can feel like we are showing too much so we can always cover up with a tee or some shorts.
