Gladiator Sandals remain HOT Trend: Bella Thorne Wears Sky-High

Are you a lover or a fighter? Or somewhere fashionably in between?

We're not sure if these gladiator sandals are too much, but these shoes are SEXY, and Bella Thorne is lovin' the hot fashion trend.

And so is her friend, er.....Miley's friend, Patrick Schwarzenegger.
.

Gladiators were seen at Paris Fashion week. Take a look at these from Chloe:


And at Valentino:


We LOVE gladiator sandals, but there is a fine line between tasteful and not so tasteful.

When the lace-ups go beyond the knees and the heel climbs really high, well, it becomes super naughty.

However, Bella looks gorgeous, and if you dare to wear her sexy style, then check out these from NastyGal, $110.


Bring on Spring 2015!

Plumper, Smoother Lips The Smart Way: Try Restylane Silk

Plumper, smoother lips.

Who doesn't like that?

The problems happen when women seek lip injections that go awry, and we've all seen some celebrities with over-blown, unnatural-looking lips.



Now there's new Restylane Silk by Galderma to the beauty rescue!


This hyaluronic acid, dermal filler injectabe has been designed especially for lip enhancement, as well as the lines above + around the lip area.

In fact, Restylane® Silk is the first and only FDA-approved filler indicated for lip enhancement + treatment of perioral lines.

Yes....That should be re-assuring to the patient.

This is what Stuart Raetzman, Chief Executive Officer of Galderma Laboratories, L.P, and Senior Vice President North America said recently:

"There is strong market interest for aesthetic products that can help address the signs of aging in the smile area without resulting in an artificial or "overdone" look, and we are pleased that Restylane® Silk will satisfy this need for healthcare professionals and consumers in the U.S."

Restylane Silk gives great lip definition WITHOUT over-plumping.

So results are natural-looking, fuller lips. NO duck-lips.

Look at this Before + After!

Khloe Kardashian Shows Off Perfect Pink Stiletto Nails + Dazzling Diamonds

Gotta LOVE Khloe Kardashian's perfect pink, stiletto nails! 

So sexy!

We found this photo on the famous reality star's Instagram page:


For us...the stiletto nail is TOO high maintenance, but we still adore the glam style it evokes.

Khloe's perfect pink mani looks even more amazing with the expensive rings adorning 7 fingers
----Shay Jewelry, Cartier, and xiv Karats.

We especially like the shade of pink polish this blonde K-sister is wearing.


If you want to copy, er 'kopy' Khloe's perfect pink nails, then try OPI Pink-ing of You. We think this comes pretty darm close to the shade she is wearing.

We found a bottle for $9.50 at ULTA.

It's from OPI's Soft Shades Nail Lacquer Collection.

Khloe's got the right idea for Spring style. Soft pink nails set the tone.

Dr. Frederic Brandt Passes Away: Field Of Dermatology Less Brighter

We were saddened to learn yesterday of Dr. Frederic Brandt's untimely passing.


He was a brilliant, Miami-based dermatologist with an A-list celebrity following. Kelly RipaGwyneth Paltrow + Madonna were 3 big fans.

We were fortunate to interview him by email several years ago; he was tough to nail down for a lengthy talk, because he was super busy.

Dr. Brandt started playing around with BOTOX before it was acceptable by huge numbers, and he also featured an incredible line of effective, skin care products.

So in honor of this very smart expert, we are looking at one of his retinol fan favorites:

Glow by Dr. Brandt....Overnight Resurfacing Serum ($85, at Dr. Brandt Skin Care).
A whopping 2% active retinol time-release complex is featured. That's pretty big--compared to a 1% retinol formula we thought was the most potent. And this serum delivers better tone and texture and younger-looking skin.

What's so FAB about retinol?

Very simple. Retinol, the gentler cousin of Retin-A, works. The pace is slower than Retin-A,  but your skin escapes the irritation, dryness + harshness that retinoic acids can deliver
.
Sephora also sells a bunch of Dr. Brandt's skin care products.

To learn more about Dr. Brandt's passing, you can read People Magazine's article.

Khloe Kardashian + 100 LB. Squats Key To Firmer, Higher Behind?

Khloe Kardashian claims she hits the gym 5 days a week!

Good for her, and we have no reason to disbelieve the youngest K-sister, because she says she works out with famous personal trainer Gunnar Peterson.

 So....we've all noticed Khloe's bigger-than-usual, higher-than-usual + rounder-than-usual butt.

 Is it real or fake?

Khloe claims it's the grueling sessions at the gym, including her 100 lb.squats, that are responsible for her fitter, firmer body.

Here's proof the 30-year-old K-sister trains hard, from her own Instagram page:



Can squats with free weights build a better, firmer behind?

YES....But, getting that perfect roundness + height, well, we're not so sure that weights + machines can make your butt look that amazing, so fast.


For a good lesson on squats for women, check this out on YouTube.
