there's a hint of winter in the air

Oh how i despair! I simply do detest winter, i believe thats why i love christmas and Halloween so much as it makes up for the awful weather.


In preperation for the doom season, i embrace the winter fashion and begin making a fall wishlist.


Along the rails of simple sweaters, mumsy knits, Things that you should try.... .

Coloured Tights

Channeling Blair from gossip girl, coloured tights are a little bit of screwing up perfection. Whilist pulling out that little v neck sweater you love so much and a skirt, instead of picking out that instant classic of a black tights, pick up that pair of red, pink or even a royal blue. Will make you stand out in a crowd without looking like a fashion reject or fashion victim

The Beanie

Get it wrong, you end up looking like you have a saggy mushroom on your head, get it right and you end up with a warm chic hat. The key is to have the hat fitting snugly on your head, with no saggy parts, with your hair draping in front.

Eye Masks

Oh to be a bear, i wish i could be hibernating right now, so then i could skip right to summer. But thats wishfull thinking, so instead i'll have to do with this sweet eyemask. Eyemasks are great for taking on that aeroplane flight, or taking a nap.

Chic and Charming's Party!

After arriving a little past fashionably late, due to a late taxi and awful weather. The Party is fabulous, elegant, regal and ever so fun. Whilst eyeing up Chic and Charming's Loubs, i spotted the most amazing Jello shots, i have to say my taste buds found the blueberry martini ever so delightful.



The sleepover is going to be awfully fun, with my sleepover kit, i'm ready for giggles, stuffing my face silly and in fact not getting any sleep.

Well i must get back to the Party......

Soft, Smooth and Shiny Hair in a Flash

Having soft, smooth, and shiny hair does not have to be difficult and expensive. Just follow these few simple steps and you will have beautiful and luxurious emo hair in no time.

First, brush your hair several times a day. Brushing helps remove the dirt, dust, and grime that get trapped in your hair. It also helps distribute the natural oils produced by the scalp, from the roots to the tips.

Shampoo your hair every other day and condition it everyday. Shampooing on a daily basis may strip off the natural oils that moisturize the hair. Conditioning it, on the other hand, restores lost moisture and keeps the natural oils in place.

Use cold water as much as possible when washing your hair. This seals the hair cuticles and locks the conditioner as close to the hair follicle as possible.

Give your hair a hot oil treatment once every two weeks. Mayonnaise or egg yolks can be used as an alternative to expensive salon treatments. Spread mayonnaise or egg yolks combined with olive oil all over your hair, concentrating on the ends. Cover your hair with a shower cap for 10-20 mins and then rinse well.

Eat lots of food rich in B-vitamins and proteins, like bananas, soybeans, avocados, eggs, grains, and red meat. The nutrients found in these food items are responsible for healthy and shiny hair.

Refrain from using heated styling tools and alcohol-based styling products as much as possible, as this can easily dry out your hair. If it cannot be avoided, use thermal styling tools and water-based styling products, which cause less damage to the hair.

Lastly, have your hair trimmed every six weeks to keep it in tip-top shape. This gets rid of the dry ends and keeps the rest of the hair looking good and healthy.

Tylers' Haistyling Tips

As far as what i do to style it, for the old haircut (1st pic) I used to comb it all down and straighten it in front of my face, then comb it kind of over my right eye and with the other bang to he left side and re-straighten it in its new position (thick wavy hair doesn't like to cooperate) Then for spiking out the back when the mood struck me, i'd kind of run my fingers up the back of my head and pull out the water after a shower to sort of sudo-dry it in that position already, then when straightening came i'd straighten it straight up, and finally I'd add some texturizer and run my hands up through the back and pull out ward, we have a closet in my house where you can see behind you so i'd usually use that to check for missed spots, don't add too much or it'll fall down, then usually once i got it staying nice and up I'd use the left over Texturizer on my hair to smooth it out and kind of hold it in place, my hair is thick so i'd basically pancake my bang between my palms and smoothen it out. then add a bit of hairspray to the back to hold it in place.

For my new hair I'm still experimenting The back is cut so I can spike it out But I've decided to go with wax to spike it which i'm still experimenting with (hence why i have no pictures of that) If you have really long hair i'd suggest some type of wax, simply because it has structure and seems less like lethal spikes than gel, and texturizer would barely help and you'd be holding everything up with hairspray alone otherwise. However it would be a similar idea, running your waxed fingers through you're hair and pulling outwards to make all of the hair stand up, for the front and sides, i pretty much just straighten them and add a bit of texturizer to hold them in place or Depp anti-frizz depending how staticy my hair is. For the bangs I simply straighten everything out and comb it into place so it blends nicely. once it grows a bit further i'll be able to do a fore head showing part but at the moment it doesn't work out to well.

So there is what i did for my old hair and what i do for my new haircut... theres actually a story behind my old haircut and the transitions it underwent before i got it as i liked it..then lobed half of it off lol.

Montorgueil

"Inspired by the Bohemian-chic atmosphere of Rue Montorgueil in Paris, the spacious bag is very easy to match. It comes in Monogram canvas and features the handwritten signature of the House." from the Louis Vuitton Website

Designer Logo's are everywhere, from bags to Bikes, which leaves delight in WAGS, or realilty tv star's. Depending on how you wear the logo, decides on how chic or unchic your outfit will be. Say for example your heidi montag, the items she buys are simply divine, until she puts them all together for a big label mishmash of a Label whore.



The Montorgeuil is underrated as a Bag, which bitterly disappoints me, After seeing it months ago for a spring summer preview, I was expecting it to be pictured heavily amongst celebrities and Bloggers, having this not been done so it has been a let down.

I see this bag sitting perfectly on Hillary Duff's Shoulder, whilst wearing a white tunic dress, gold pendant, a trilby hat and a little dainty pair of gladiators.

At a reasonable price for Louis Vuitton £405, it is a simply chic bag for all seasons which i think in time will become like the speedy. At a more reasonable price you could buy the neverfull MM for £360.
