Accessories Add Glamour to Any Outfit
- style isn't what other people tell you to wear and the accessories listed below are only a few examples of how you can glamourize your look.  Find the pieces that work for you (sunglasses that suit your face--accessories that fit your budget.)  Splurge on a great haircut [we recommend Joseph John Salon, 900 E. Atlantic Ave., Suite B, Delray Beach, FL 561.274.9400], and fabulous shoes-fake the rest.

Accessories elevate the basics, bring your look to life and can make you feel like a million bucks.  Remember-it isn’t what you wear-it’s how you wear it!

·Scarves - the cliché is that French women wear the same skirt three times a week but manage to make it look fresh with things like scarves. The more unconventional among us will be drawn to airy cotton versions with embroidery. More classic types will love silk squares to tie around their neck or over their hair for convertible drives.

·Belts - one of the most under-utilized fashion accessories is the belt.  If you have an hourglass figure, your waist is an asset--use it--cinch a skinny belt at your natural waist over light cardigans, sundresses, even a plain old t-shirt. The belt adds a bit of polish, but more importantly, highlights those delicious curves of yours.  For those of you who don’t have an hourglass figure a wide belt angled the right way can create the illusion of having one.
 
·Movie Star Shades - great shades are timeless-for great examples illustrating the glamorizing effect of sunglasses you need only watch an old Audrey Hepburn movie, travel back to Camelot and Jackie O or pick-up the latest edition of any celebrity magazine featuring Angelina Jolie.  Slick on some lipstick, pop on the shades, and breeze out the door.

·Bangles - a simple “chic” addition to any outfit-so many styles and colors, mix and match--find the bangle that works for you.

·Pearls - simple, elegant, versatile-whether it is a strand of the finest individual hand-knotted oyster pearls or a strand of fresh water pearls pared with precious and semi-precious stones-pearls add iridescent glamour to any outfit.

                                                              
Beauty

Get glowing skin!  This season is all about "sun-kissed" cheeks and skin.  You don't have to take a long time to look great.  Giving your skin that summer glow will do most of the work for you.  Use these helpful techniques to increase your beauty confidence!

·For cheekbones that pop, sweep a sheer shimmer powder along the top of your cheekbones and just under your temples. A shimmery bronzing powder works great! This will highlight your bone structure to make it look more pronounced. Next, pucker up to find the hollows of your cheeks, and then dust a deep, nude, matte blush in the sunken area just under the cheekbone. Now smile and apply a peachy blush using the "cinnamon bun method"-use circular motions, starting at the apple of the cheek and slowly make larger circles with the brush.  We suggest: Mary Kay Mineral Bronzing Powder in Desert Sun.

·To hide a double chin, you'll need a contour powder which is a cool, deep, nude blush. It shouldn't have any sparkles or warm undertones. Sweep it just behind your ear, then under your jaw line and all the way to your chin. Make sure to gently blend the powder into your neck as to avoid an unsightly line. This little trick creates a shadow, which makes your chin look less noticeable.

·If you want to make your nose less prominent, use a skinny crease brush and, starting at the inner part of your eyebrow, sweep a contour powder down both sides of your nose, over both nostrils. Join the lines under the tip of the nose. Be sure to blend so you don't see lines, just shadows. Then gently swipe a matte highlighting powder down the center for a slimmer straighter nose. We like: Mary Kay Mineral Highlighting Powder in Pink Porcelain
