VS New 1 1/2 Cup Push-Up Bra: Like Goldilocks Finding The Perfect Fit!

We can't stop laughing.....LOLz...

First of all, we LOVE that Victoria's Secret has debuted a brand new bra called the 1 1/2 cup push-up.

Er.....does that make sense?

Yes.....We own the VS Sexy bra, which gives you a 1-cup boobage boost and the VS Bombshell bra which guarantees a 2-cup enhancement.

And now the VS middle-of-the-road bra------ the 1 1/2-cup Push-Up bra that does just that----LIFT your bosom a bit MORE but NOT over-the-top. 

So, yes, it reminds us of the childhood fairy tale of Goldilocks + the 3 Bears: 

"This porridge is too hot!" she exclaimed. So, she tasted the porridge from the second bowl. 

"This porridge is too cold," she said So, she tasted the last bowl of porridge. 

"Ahhh, this porridge is just right," she said happily and she ate it all up.

You get the point. Well, we are anxious to try the VS 1 1/2-cup push-up.

The VS Sexy bra does NOT provide much of anything for our smallish silhouette.

And the VS Bombshell bra.....well, Kylie Jenner is accurate when she claims this high-tech bra enables for big, faux cleavage.

"I just use the Bombshell by Victoria's Secret. It's life-changing. I've gotten all my sisters on it and all my friends. If you want the look of bigger breasts, that's what I do."

But----although the Bombshell bra is very comfy, it does feel like you've got a sofa cushion strapped across your chest...ha ha...The padding is pretty thick, in other words.

So, here is the new VS 1 1/2 cup Push-Up bra ($48.50):

Ladies.....Will you try VS's New 1 1/2-Cup bra?

Jessica Simpson Kiss Me Super Skinny Grey Jeans: Fave Of Sis Ashlee

Let's talk about Kiss Me Super Skinny grey jeans and their designer Jessica Simpson.

We LOVE grey skinnies. It took us a bit to warm up to them, but after seeing fashionable celebs like Gisele Bundchen, Kim Kardashian, Cindy Crawford, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kendall Jenner and others looking glam in grey, we bought a pair, too.

As Jessica Simpson said on the Home Shopping Network last evening, sister Ashlee LOVES wearing skinny grey jeans + looks so rock 'n roll sexy in them.

There's lots of buzz about Jessica's appearance on HSN. Apparently, folks tuning into the live show claim the sexy star was allegedly D-R-U-N-K during the segment where she is pitching her Jessica Simpson clothing line.

Here's a pair of Jessica's Kiss me Super Skinny Jeans in Myrtle Grey, ($44.99 on SALE, at Macy's).

Jessica Simpson's alleged slurring appears all over YouTube

You decide.....Does Jessica appear or sound drunk on HSN to you?

Givenchy SS 2016 Wows At NYFW: Black Tuxedo Jacket Trend!

Many of you already own a classic black tuxedo jacket or two.

Good, because NY Fashion Week was ALL about the tuxedo jacket at the Givenchy Spring/Summer 2016 show recently.

Designer Riccardo Tisci brought the DRAMA to the runway in a white + black fashion palette or just all black or just all white,

Absolutely visually stunning. White lace tops, black tuxedo jackets + black bottoms.

Sexy + elegant to a tee.

Kendall Jenner walked this show looking Givenchy-flawless:

Maybe you don't have the thousands to purchase  a Givenchy tuxedo jacket....BUT, you CAN COPY the trend, and get a jump on it  NOW.

We found several at Forever21 for a boatload LESS;

Blue-Based Lipstick VS Orange-Based Lipstick: Is One Only Better For Whiter-Looking Teeth?

We have light olive skin; we are of Greek heritage.

We also have darkest brown hair + eyes, and we believe COOL makeup shades look BEST with our skin tone.

Therefore, we are ALWAYS wondering about the beauty myth:

Do blue-based lipsticks allow teeth to look whiter, opposed to orange-based lipsticks which allow teeth to look yellower?

Hmmm.

Well, we think the myth is pretty much a fact. At least for us.

We LOVE pink lipsticks that have a cool blue base to them. We just know they appear BETTER on us.

We like coral shades that feature an orange-y base, but our lips really take on a yellowish tint. NO good for anyone's smile.

Here are 2 photos of actress Jessica Alba, wearing a blue-based pink lipstick and an orange-based lipstick.

Does one lippie allow her teeth to look whiter?

Call us loopy but we think the blue-based PINK lipstick DOES make Jessica's beautiful white teeth look even whiter

Just our humble opinion.

She Bangs! Duchess Kate Makes Royal Hairstyle Change

.....And we'll never be royals
It don't run in our blood
That kind of lux just ain't for us
We crave a different kind of buzz......

But we CAN COPY the Royal BANGS, ladies!

Duchess Kate has NOT been seen out in public since late July, until NOW.

There's the happy royal mom-of-two in the car with Wills at the wheel, sporting a NEW duchess do-----BANGS!

Kate debuted this look back in 2012, and we like it, once again.

Okay, let's be real. The bangs Kate has are long layered bangs that are parted down the middle.

Reminds us of Zooey Deschanel's center-part bangs.

Both Kate + Zooey share similar hair color and wavy body.

Yes...we are envious of their AMAZING hair. We LOVE this look on the Duchess. Fun to switch it up.

What do you think?

Duchess Kate: Bangs or No Bangs?

Back To Fall: Time To Repair Skin With At-Home Peel

It's been a very hot summer for most of us, and maybe you played in the SUN for hours + hours. 

It's possible you forgot to pack your skin care products while on vacation. Or maybe you even forgot to wear your shades a few times.

You can't beat summer fun, BUT the damage done to the complexion can be significant. That's why when autumn rolls around, lots of people head back to their dermatologist for some care + repair.

You could also baby your skin with a great at-home peel. What this does is EXFOLIATE----super cleanses pores, wipes away the grime + dead skin cells, and makes your complexion smooth + brighter---more even-toned.

When most women hear the words, chemical peel, they want to RUN + HIDE, because they fear BURNING their face + neck.

But with an at-home peel using pads, you WON'T harm your skin.

We like these by Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Peel Original Formula ($16, at Sephora).

A GOOD beauty budget buy!

This is a monthly supply of pre-soaked cotton pads or towelettes.   A 2-step treatment with Glycolic + Mandelic acids..

So simple! So effective!

Use once daily in the morning or evening. 
-Apply Step 1 to clean, dry skin in circular motions from forehead to neck. 
-Continue until pad feels dry. 
-Wait two minutes.
-Apply Step 2 using same technique as Step 1.
-Do not rinse or use products containing alcohol after either step.
-To further enhance results, apply Hydra-Pure™ Serum of your choice prior to moisturizer.

Peels make a difference!

These are super safe..

More And More Women Going In For The Close Facial Shave

We've talked about this briefly before: Women shaving their faces.

We found one celeb to admit to it---reality TV star Caroline Manzo. Yep...she says shaving her face gives her smooth, youthful skin.

And Caroline Manzo is NOT alone. Other chicks do facial shave---some are famous but DON'T talk about it.

But the NYTimes.com IS talking about it, and wrote an article about the hush-hush beauty routine recently.

It was quite interesting.

The NYTimes.com interviewed celeb facialist Kate Somerville who also admitted she shaves her face:

"I hate to say this, but personally I get hairs above my upper lip, and have forever," Ms. Somerville said, adding that waxing irritates her sensitive skin. "Initially I did it because of the hair, but then I noticed that it was a great exfoliant and that my makeup went on a lot better."

So....how do you begin?

A lot of women use a single disposable blade like Tinkle.

Yes....Tinkle.

We found a 3-pack at Amazon for $4.89.

Good luck---You're on your own. If any ladies here do shave their faces, please comment below.
