Mariah + J-Hud: The Long + Short Of It At The BET Black Girls Rock Awards

There seems to be 2 hairstyle looks these days for the red carpet:

The super long + the super short.

Take a peek at last night's BET Black Girls Rock Awards show. There's Mariah with bigger, faux hair than ever! And J-Hud chopping off her long, dark locks into a cute, chic pixie. We're seeing a lot of this on famous celebrities.

While the Kardashian sisters keep on wearing their Rapunzel-like long, wavy dos, others have gone for the big chop----Jennifer Hudson, Alicia Keys, Giuliana Rancic, Beyoncé, Natalie Portman and Rihanna, to name a few.

We like both the long + short of it all. Super long, glorious hair is quite sexy, but so is super short + chic !

The only thing we object to here, is Mariah Carey's midriff-baring ensemble. It's just not working for her thicker waistline at the moment. .

Kim K Wears White Lace For Vegas Birthday Bash: K-Sisters + Kris Don Black

Kim Kardashian has ALWAYS looked lovely in white, and that is the color she chose for her belated birthday party in Las Vegas last night. A figure-hugging, white lace, bustier dress.

It's too bad the most famous TV reality star chose NOT to smile during the celebration.

Her makeup has taken a more natural turn, ever since she went blonde a couple of months ago. Gone is the smoky eye and dark, bold brows.

Critics have been quick to point out that the media darling has had more cosmetic enhancement, either through fillers or plastic surgery. We believe that Kim K looks the same. It's the bland blonde shade that is making her look washed-out and harder, if you will.

We think she will make her smart return to her signature raven locks within a few more weeks from now.

The thing most folks are recognizing on Kim K is her sad expression, even after having a healthy, gorgeous baby girl, a recent, incredible marriage proposal from rap star Kanye West, and dropping a lot of post-baby pounds.

So, what's up with the sexy, new Mama? We're not sure.
Now, let's look at Kris, Khloe + Kourtney all dressed in black for Kim's 33rd birthday.

Not liking ANY of the black ensembles that her loving sisters + Mom have chosen. Maybe, trying too hard?

If you'd like to copy Kim K's white lace dress, here's a cheaper version we think that's just as pretty. It's a bit more covered up, but STILL sexy.


We found this one for $99 here.

Make Your Makeup Last and Last With This!

Makeup. Many of us really enjoy wearing it. But  a problem a lot of us share is in the staying power of a foundation, concealer or blush, for instance.

After about 4 hours, that makeup has left the building, as the saying goes. Now you've got a greasy complexion, or maybe an even drier, duller face.

Getting makeup to last + look fresh is a challenge. But now we have a cheap solution.

You've got to try NYX Makeup Setting Spray ($8.00, at NastyGal.com).

What we LOVE about the setting spray is its 2 choices. It comes in MATTE or DEWY. Whatever your skin type thirsts for, you've got your answer. Since our face is OILY, we would select the MATTE for a shine-free finish.

Our friend Paula has a dry complexion, so she would prefer a soft glow for her face.

Either way--- we think this NYX Makeup Setting Spray is worth the $8.00!

Heidi Klum Shows Off Some Blunt Bangs At JFK Airport

Model Heidi Klum always takes fashion + beauty to a whole new level. She loves hot trends, edgy style, and isn't afraid to take on a unique look.

There's Heidi now, debuting some cute, blunt bangs at JFK Airport on Sunday.

We like the hair and her classic, over-sized aviator lenses. We are also 'heart-ing' the black bag and red mani.

Are you liking the very casual, baggy denim jumpsuit + high-tops?

Not our favorite look on the famous model + TV star, but when you're Heidi Klum, well, you look super in just about everything.
