We are big Gwen Stefani fans!
She has cool, edgy style and gets away with peroxide blonde bombshell hair. And she wears it ALL so well! She's a modern-day Marilyn Monroe gone wild!
Let's take a fashion peek at the latest punk hot trend that Gwen is walking around in L.A..
The pregnant mama, said to be expecting her 3rd child at 43, looks amazing in her stand-out black + white skinny jeans, along with a lovely Chanel bag and black blazer.
We found a cheaper pair of striped skinnies. Check them out here at fe.com for $34! These Foreign Exchange black and white skinny jeans are so IN for autumn. They feature the classic single button + zipper closure. Very sexy.
Hey, not a bad, copy-cat pair of edgy, striped skinnies.
Rock on, ladies. Rock on!

October Beauty Equals A Colorful, Matte Lip!
It seems that a matte lip is right on trend for October 2013.
As long as the lipstick color is strong and NOT shiny, then it's HOT for FALL.
Let's take a look at our 3 stunning celebs---Julianne Hough, Emma Watson + Kim Kardashian.
We think all 3 ladies look glam!
We especially adore Julianne's old Hollywood beauty and the neutral brown lip.
Emma looks sophisticated in mauve, while new momma Kim wows them at Paris Fashion Week with a bold, wine-vamp shade.
With all 3 looks, the lips take center-stage, but not in a tacky way Nothing GLOSSY, just a nice matte lip.
The eye makeup follows behind with a simple, understated approach to balance the colorful, matte lip.
Instead, the brows are full + groomed. Gorgeous on Julianne, Emma + Kim!
What do you think?
Will you pucker up to October in a colorful, matte lip?

You can copy her elegant, classic style with a pretty pair from Kate Spade New York. We found them at Bloomingdale's for $28 a pair.

Major Cleavage On Display: Kim K + Miranda K Lead The Boob Parade
Okay....we've been noticing this, er, major cleavage on display ALL week now.
Are we jealous much?
We have a small bosom....a 34B. And yeah, we CAN create nice cleavage via a VS push-up bra.....But what we're seeing lately from a few naughty celebs is an almost vulgar display.
Take a look at Kim K + Miranda K during Paris Fashion Week:
"Hey, everybody...Yoo-who! Here I am, and I've brought out the girls!! Look at me, PLEASE!! I'm showing off major boobage!"
Is going bra-less for those with ample breasts really in vogue?!
Apparently so. Extreme plunging necklines are HOT!
But isn't there a limit for how LOW you can go, ladies?
Check out Gwyneth Paltrow gone bra-less out in L.A. for a recent fashion shoot.
Do smaller-breasted women like Gwyneth look classier in super plunging fashion?
Or is it all vulgar whether it's an A-cup, D-cup, or even F-cup?
If you care to plunge, please invest in some lift tape, like Bubbles Breast Lift Tape.

Ladies---Watch Out!! September, October + November: Hair Fallout Doubles!
We first posted about autumnal hair fallout last November, after reading a fascinating article from Japan about hair loss during the months of September, October + November. And once again, we have been affected by this bizarre occurrence.
We are noticing MORE strands in our hairbrush. Tomorrow marks October 1st. So, we figure, we have another month of NORMAL hair-shedding to deal with.
We find it frightening, to say the least. We don't care how NORMAL it appears to be. Finding MORE hair in one's hairbrush, is never a calming thing.
Here is the article once again, from the Japanese newspaper, 'Yomiuri Shimbun:'
...OSAKA--"Like trees shedding their leaves, autumn is the time of year when humans are said to lose the most amount of hair. Some experts attribute this to damage caused by exposure to ultraviolet rays during summer, while others say autumn is a time when much of the hair is replaced by new growth. Hair care specialists suggest gentle shampooing and getting enough sleep to maintain a healthy mane." We never knew about this.
The article, written by staff writer Michiko Nakai , goes on to explain that most heads have between 100,000 - 140,000 strands of hair, and "each strand goes through 3 phases--the anagen phase of growth, the catagen phase where the hair bulb at the base of each strand weakens, and the telogen phase when weakened hair falls off." The cycle then repeats every 5 or 6 years.

The cycle then repeats every 5 or 6 years.
So, how much hair fallout is normal?
According to the article...."An average of 100 strands of hair fall out as part of this cycle per day, but according to some studies, this rate increases twofold from September to November."
We're not sure how many of you have noticed more hair in your hairbrush, but we thought we would bring this to your beauty attention, in case you start to experience the same.

Jessica Alba Debuts Shorter Hairstyle And Trendy, Dip-Dyed Ombre Color
Alright...So when does actress Jessica Alba ever look lousy?
Probably rarely.
The glam mom of two had everyone's attention at last evening's 'ALMA Awards Show.'. We LOVED her sophisticated ensemble of a silky white blouse with frilly sleeves and maxi skirt that dazzled in silver + black beading.
The hair was a few inches shorter. We suspect that Jessica merely had her long extensions removed.
The new do was designed by celeb stylist Andy Lecompte. It features that ombre, dip-dyed 2-tone look we've discussed in 2 recent posts here at BeautyTipToday.com. Jessica is now sporting a center-parted, blunt, wavy hairstyle a few inches below her shoulders.
Apparently, the 2-tone, dip-dyed hair is still HOT, especially out in Hollywood.
If you want to copy the look, remember to FIGHT the frizz!!
Target has the entire John Frieda Frizz Ease collection to keep your locks all bouncy + healthy like Jessica Alba's.
