Pucker Up! July 29th is Really National Lipstick Day!!

National Lipstick Day is celebrated on July 29th. Too bad today isn't a national holiday.

But this is a REAL day of celebration! And ever since the 1920s, lipstick has become a daily part of the makeup routine.

Celebs like Gwen Stefani have made lipstick their signature look. When we think of the musical superstar, we ALWAYS see Gwen with classic red lips + platinum hair a la Marilyn Monroe.

Same thing for mega-star Taylor Swift and her glam red lips:

So, let's look at lipstick. Maybe RED  lips are too bold for your taste,  but that's alright.

Let's try a fun, sheer, buildable pink lipstick from CG:

Echantress Blush ($5.44, at Walmart).

Brit Stylist Scolds Duchess Kate For Showing Gray Roots Even While Pregnant

The Duchess of Cambridge is only 33, and yet is GRAYING fast!

Oh, Kate, we feel your pain! We started getting dreaded gray roots in our mid-20s.

But when you're in the public eye and a royal, ALL eyes + cameras are on you. Plus, when you have brunette hair color, gray roots are so much more apparent. It ain't easy, Kate.

And now big mouth Brit stylist Nicky Clarke is scolding the proud new mama for even allowing her grays to be seen back in February while she was expecting Princess baby Charlotte.

Who is Nicky Clarke?

The famous stylist who tended to the lovely head of Princess Diana.

This is what he told the DailyMail.

"Kate needs to get rid of her grey hair — it’s not a good look," he told the publication at his Mayfair salon.

"She does have amazing things done to her hair and it can look great, but unfortunately it’s the case for women — all women — that until you’re really old, you can’t be seen to have any grey hairs."

Kind of harsh, eh?

We have a pricey way to CONCEAL those pesky gray roots, and the Duchess can afford this, we are sure.

This one is by Rita Hazan, celeb stylist NYC ($25, at ULTA).

Christie Brinkley: Her Chic Summer Hamptons Beauty/Style

61 years old.

Oh, yeah. There's the iconic model Christie Brinkley flashing that megawatt smile as she hits the town for an an advanced screening of Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation at United Artists East Hampton Cinema.

We like Christie's look not only for its all-American appeal, but this model is super healthy, and NOT too skinny.

She is curvy, fit + strong.

And we are LOVING Christie's Hamptons beauty/style, like her adorable, high ponytail. That's a great, simple look for summer! She has kept her makeup fresh + lovely with  mascara, liner + pink-y lip gloss, and of course that fab, Hamptons tan.

We also "heart" Christie's skinny white jeans and sandal flats adorned with pretty, faux gems.

Christie also goes for the classic, red pedicure. Looks chic + sexy for summer.

Want a pair of skinny, white jeans?

You can COPY Christie's look here. We found tons of white skinnies at Macy's.

All prices, too....From Michael Kors to 7 for All Mankind to Tommy Hilfiger to Levi's, there is a skinny white jean out there for you!

Beyonce Copies the Cute N' Curly Mariah Do: Massive Ringlets

We LOVE this look:

Massive ringlets---sheer volume.....Okay a bit 1980s...but we adore BIG hair....and apparently, so do 2 of the most famous divas around:

Beyonce + Mariah.

Mariah's been rocking the massive ringlets for a few months now, especially in outdoor venues where heat + humidity do their thing, like with billionaire boyfriend James Packer on his yacht and at Disney with her adorable twins, etc.

And superstar Beyonce is COPYING Maria's sexy voluminous ringlets, as pictured here at NYC's Madison Square Garden last evening for a U2 Concert. Beyonce was too busy giggling for the paps, but let her massive curls do the talking.

LOVE the do on both amazing singers:

Okay....NONE of our business, but are these chicks wearing weaves?

Well, NOT sure, but, we found this excellent primer on WIGS VS. WEAVES at Essence.com. 

From what we learned, we would guess these beautiful divas are sporting WEAVES...But gorgeous, nonetheless.

What do you think, readers? A wig, weave or natural hair?
