Amal Alamuddin Capture's George Clooney's Heart With Exotic Beauty And Style

Amal + George. Sounds nice.

If we are to believe all the headlines and the huge bling she is now wearing on her left ring finger, then it appears that long-time bachelor George Clooney has fallen hard for a brilliant + very attractive humantarian attorney, Amal Alamuddin! And a source has confirmed the rumor.

Are Amal + George really engaged?!

We believe so. And we are here to celebrate her exotic looks + style.

It won't be easy being the ONE that finally changed George Clooney's heart. Already the haters are hating online, where they hide behind their computers:

"She's not pretty enough."

"Stacy had better legs."

"She looks too much like George."

"This is all a ruse to advance Clooney's political career."

"George chose her after all those beauties?"

It's pretty sad that a lot of people base their ideas of attraction only on what Hollywood is selling. And that the all-American look is the ONLY one that matters.

First of all---Amal Alamuddin is NOT an actress or model. That is NOT how she earns her living. Amal was born in Beirut, Lebanon of Druze parents. She is a very intelligent gal, having graduated from New York University of Law in 2011. She specializes in International Law. Alma works with the internationally recognized Civil Rights law firm of Doughty Street Chambers in London.

Plus...we think Amal Alamuddin has exotic beauty + style.

And talk about gorgeous hair!

Amal Alamuddin is certainly one woman we will all be watching in 2014!

Kate And Wills Munching On Nature Valley Granola Bars During Marathon Australia And New Zealand Tour

Kate + Wills and of course, adorable baby George are now relaxing after that 51-engagement marathon tour.

We thought the royal couple conducted themselves beautifully with a restless, raring to walk, little George by their side.

Duchess Kate wore some gorgeous, bright ensembles including yellow and green.

Her pretty, long wavy hair + makeup looked amazing during the entire Australia + New Zealand tour.

We were interested to just learn that the body-conscious Duke and Duchess kept these on stash in the royal car to munch on during the long visits in between:

Nature Valley Crunchy Granola Bars, Oats 'n Honey

Yummy!

Down under, the Aussies call these muesli bars, but you get the nutritional point here.

Except for the sugar in these nicely textured granola bars, you are getting good fiber, excellent grains, low fat, low sodium and of course, great flavor + satisfying snack.

And LESS than 100 calories in one bar---90 to be exact! 

Do you snack like the Duke + Duchess?

Khloe Kardashian's Ombre Hair Instantly Doubles In Length: Super Long!

We love the ombre hair color on Khloe Kardashian.

In fact....We think this reality star can pull off the darker-to-lighter hair highlights BETTER than every celebrity we've seen sporting the popular, hair color trend.

And now the youngest K-sister has take her lovely locks to a whole new level--- Khloe K's ombre hair has recently DOUBLED in length...And we LOVE it, because it looks healthy, sexy, and this lady is tall, so the proportions fit her perfectly.

Hair extensions?

Who are we to judge. We are assuming the hair is faux, but then again we are starting to believe that MOST celebs enjoy wearing hair extensions to give their locks MORE instant volume, glam + sexiness!

Let's look at the photos: Here is Khloe K yesterday, walking with Kim around sunny L.A. in her signature, tight denim shorts. Check out her super long hair!

Here is another recent pic of her :

And here is Khloe last March at the Oscar's after parties with shorter hair

Either way.....long to super long hair, Khloe K wears it well.

Last June, the TV cameras followed Khloe + brother Rob into a His & Her Beverly Hills store to stock up on what appeared to be hair extensions.

We like her instant super long locks. Do you?

Courteney Cox Shows Off Beautiful Smoky, Cat Eyes! Meow! Meow!

Girlfriend must be doing something right, because at age 49, we think actress Courteney Cox looks better than ever!

What we're really admiring are her sexy, smoky cat eyes. Meow!

There's the dark-haired beauty at the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival in New York City last evening, marking her debut as a director for the movie, "Just Before I Go.".

Accompanying Courteney to the red carpet event was musician Johnny McDaid, whom she has been seeing for about 6 months. There have been rumors of an engagement, but this couple isn't talking---actually, the smart thing to do.

Courteney keeps it beauty simple, except for those mysterious cat eyes. She has a luminous complexion showing just a hint of blush, a soft, nude-pink-y lipstick and hair casually pulled back in a loose bun.

All eyes are on Courteney's baby blues. We don't believe she has faux lashes on in this photo, but we could be wrong.

To get these beautiful, smoky cat eyes, we would suggest the blackest mascara you can find, a deep smoky shadow in a dark gray shade and of course, a steady, skilled hand.

We like Thunderball mattte eye shadow by NARS, $25.

It is so-oooo NOT easy creating the perfect pair of symmetrical-looking cat eyes. But practice makes perfect, as the old saying goes.

Do you adore the sexy, smoky cat eyes?

Or is this too hard a look to pull off?

Would You Put On Spanx Booty Bra For A Shapelier, Kardashian Behind? Or Let It Be?

We are all for the padded bra.....But for some strange reason, we would NOT put on a padded panty for our behind.

Sure, who doesn't want a perky, rounded butt like the beauty trend continues to inspire?

In fact, even Spanx the fashion leader in women's under clothing body shapers has come out with their own booty-licious push-up bra for your behind. We've been waiting for a few months before commenting on this one. But we can wait all day, because BIG butts aren't fading away.

The world seems to have an increasing butt obsession, so we are assuming these padded panties will be popular sellers.

Think Kim Kardashian but at a considerably smaller size with a curvy, lifted butt.

Now, imagine slipping into a pair of body hugging briefs with some strategic padding---a booty bra, as the nickname applies. And va-va-va-voom! Instant, sexier behind! NO surgery. NO fat or filler injections. Just a pretty, big, ole behind.

Would you put them on--now that Spanx has designed their own Booty Bra?

It's actually called the Spanx Trust Your Thinstincts Booty Bra. ($58, at Dillards).

We prefer what Victoria's Secret sells---the Oh So Cheeky Slimming Boyshort Panty. ($42, at Victoria's Secret).

This one has NO padding but a seamless, control-shaping nylon/spandex memory that smooths out your behind, slimming your hips and shaping your butt in a natural way.

What do you think ladies?

Is padding in the behind the right way to go in 2014?

Or just "let it be."

How To Use Clarifying Shampoo With Color-Treated Hair

We think everyone should have a bottle of clarifying shampoo on hand, even if you don't have color-treated hair.

Clarifying shampoo has excellent de-greasing action or strong gunk removal.

In other words, if you have a lot of styling product in your hair, this type of shampoo will get rid of it FAST!

Most clarifying shampoos contain acetic acid. It's a chemical compound  found in vinegar. And what it does is remove build-up layer by layer.

But there is a trick to using clarifying shampoo if you have dyed hair.

1. Use clarifying shampoo BEFORE you color your hair. It will remove all that styling build-up that often coats the hair shaft. If you don't use this type of super cleansing shampoo, then the dye will soak in here and there, giving off inconsistent, patchy results.

2. Newly color-treated locks should stay away from constant clarifying shampoo. Too much can fade your great dye job fast. So, only use it once a month.

3. Also remember--that although clarifying shampoo is a demon at attacking grimy, dirty, heavy deposits, it can also make hair feel brittle. These shampoos are not conditioning formulas. So a little goes a long way.

Here is a very good clarifying shampoo:
 
 Suave Daily Clarifying Shampoo, Normal to Oily Hair (.99, at Walgreens).

We have used it for several years now....BUT not every day. Hey...less than a buck?! Can't beat it...and it DOES remove build-up of all kinds.
