Blunt Bangs And 5 Celebs Who Won't Grow Theirs Out Anytime Soon

Celebrity stylist Robert Vetica recently tweeted about "THE EVOLUTION OF . There is nothing new about it, actually bangs have a long history. ! ."

And boy, is he right!

Bangs seem to go in + out of style, but actually, bangs NEVER fade away from fashion.

Blunt bangs have been the HOT trend this year.

Would you rock the blunt look for the holiday season?

We tweeted back to @VeticaSalons this--

"Luv them because bangs allow u to look younger. Bangs let thin brows look fuller. Great Bangs = perfect frame for the eyes."

So many celebs LOVE their full, straight across fringe. Check them out here.

SJP Tells Andy Cohen That She Loves Her 'Capable' Hands

SJP's hands look fine to us. And she REALLY loves her 'capable hands,' despite what some gossip rags call witch hands. We will get to her admission to Andy Cohen in a bit.

Sarah Jessica Parker has thin, veiny hands.
So what?

Lots of attractive celebrities do, including Angelina Jolie, Madonna, Christie Brinkley, Pam Anderson, Meg Ryan, to name a few.


Often, slender women with lower body fat have hands where the skin is thinner and the veins protrude. Or female athletes sometimes have more muscular limbs and the veins pop out.

And there is also genetics. Maybe your mom has similar veiny hands. And as we age, the hands can appear 'bonier,' if you will.

We are in this club, too. And we were never bothered by our veiny hands until we saw gossip mags zeroing in on a celebrity's hands and finding fault with a single appendage.

How cruel + bizarre is that?!

Here's what SJP told host Andy Cohen of Watch What Happens Live earlier this week when she saw an article about her so-called witch hands:

"It was so ridiculous, so outrageous to me because, here's the thing — I will wrap this up — I love my hands. My hands, because they've always felt strong. I like that they weren't feminine, but they were like, you know, really capable… And they're my mom's hands. And I've always had super veiny hands, but this is how I was born!"

Can anything be done about one's veiny hands?

Yes....there are dermal fillers that can be injected to add volume to a bony hand, and therefore, make the veins blend in better.

We have not seen the celebs we mentioned here going for the injections, but sometimes we see a few hiding their hands like Christie + Madonna.

Shameful that women are attacked for simply trying to be themselves.

Lipsy's Kardashian Kollection For Brits Includes New Floral Body Con Dresses!

We hope the Kardashian sisters add the new, pretty floral body-con dresses we see for Lipsy to their US Sears kollection.

Seems to us, that the Kardashian Kollection for Brits is a bit more glam + stylish.

The K sisters have launched a new set of 14-pieces for the UK's Lipsy, high-street chain store. Across the pond, women will be able to find bold floral prints, lace, lady-like pencil skirts, biker jackets and more, all in the Kardashian Kollection label.

We think the figure-hugging styles look fab on Kim, Kourtney + Klhoe.  And all 3 have different body types.

Khloe spoke to glamourmagazine.co.uk about the sisters' success with their collection for British women:

"It's such a fun, flirty brand", Khloe told Glamour. "Like Lipsy, my sisters and I are all about empowering women to feel confident in their clothes".
 

Khloe goes on to say, that it was their momma Kris,  who played a big role in shaping their style sense:

"Our mom definitely played a huge part in our love of fashion from an early age. I have always thought she is one of the most stylish women I know."



For the lucky ladies in the UK, The Kardashian Kollection for Lipsy will be available on lipsy. co.uk from December 23rd, and in stores from December 29th.

Check out the current Lipsy lookbook right here K-fans.

Arrest Warrant Out: Kelly Osbourne Makes Major Fashion Faux Pas!

We happen to adore rock legend Ozzie's vivacious daughter + fashion critic, Kelly Osbourne.

We think she knows plenty about good taste + style....BUT------


When you live your life in the public and you have lots to say about how others dress + appear on the red carpet, then you, too, become fair game.

And yes...we are a fan of E!'s Fashion Police show. And we are a REAL Joan ranger, as our first name would apply.

But we must give you a fashion fail, Kelly. What you're wearing is a major faux pas!

And it hurts us to hit back, but, we know you can take it.

No, nothing wrong about running errands in clean sweat pants, tee + hoodie.

But the lilac locks (+ garish bold lips) are not pretty. It's been over-played. Time to put the Crayola crayon hair away!

The up-do looks very old-lady, and Miss Kelly, you are a young, cute 29-year-old woman.

Why age yourself some 20 years?

Some claim you are under contract to keep your lilac locks?

Under contract to whom?! And why ?!

This is just a ridiculous look and time for a Kelly Osbourne make-over. Now!!

If you LOVE Kelly Osbourne's signature lilac mane, because there are a number of women who really do, you can rock your own purple. We found plenty purple hair extensions right here.

The X Factor's Nicole Scherzinger Swears By This Bliss Beauty Product

Nicole Scherzinger.
It's hard to find any flaws or even a tiny pimple on this Hawaiian goddess. Her skin looks flawless to us.

But she swears by this Bliss Beauty Product for prettier, more relaxed-looking eyes:

"....And I really like the Bliss Triple Oxygen Instant Energising Eye Masks, they're really tingly and I use them every other day. "

At $54 for a single treatment, that is NOT cheap. And if our eyes can look like her eyes after a little Bliss Oxygen, well, heck---this could be one super beauty trick.

So, let's see what's in it, that makes Nicole use it several times a week.


These beauty oxygenators refresh the eyes:
 antioxidant vitamin C
and puff-pummeling cucumber extract
 will brighten, de-puff, + hydrate eyes in 15 minutes flat.

Nicole Scherzinger also lists a bunch of other beauty must-have products to the British Daily Mail. Read all about it here.

Would you shell out $54 EVERY other day for skin care eye treatments?

Santa?

We need your help.
