Desk to Dinner

If you’re like me, you often have to go right from work to your dinner plans without a minute to think about what you're wearing! It is easy to find something to wear that is acceptable for work and stylish for dinner when you shop metrostyle! Today, I am wearing our Striped Chiffon Halter Top, it is just so colorful and eye-catching. While I am at work I have it on underneath a solid color jacket, (which I will leave in the car when I go out for dinner!) I have this look paired with white capris and our purple Fringed Sandals. With this ensemble you’ll be ready for the entire day, whether you're hard at work at your desk or out to dinner enjoying yourself! Isn't it nice to know you don't have to think about what you have on and concentrate on getting to dinner on time?? Let me know how many compliments you get…you can thank me later.

Loss of a Legend

June 25th was an awful day. It started out good enough with the sun shining for the first time in weeks but later in the afternoon, it all went downhill. Michael Jackson died and with him, we lost a legend. And when I say we, I mean you, me, the world. It's a much sadder place here when you realize that the man will no longer be making music that makes us dance and sing. I must admit, Michael was one of my idols growing up. His youth, his charisma, that crazy hair.

Everything about him reeked of cool. I went gaga over Billie Jean, Smooth Criminal, and Beat It. Sang and danced along with friends to Thriller (come on, who didn't imitate the zombie dance moves at least once?). The 90s may have found me a bit older but I still rocked out to Black or White and Scream. I even loved the simplicity of You Are Not Alone, though it made dancing to it a bit more difficult.

Michael was an enduring musical icon, yes, and we'll definitely miss him for the music he gave us and all that he had left to give. But let's not forget that he was also a fashion maven. One that will be missed as much for his music as for his own unaffected sense of style. Michael Jackson never cared what other people thought of him and because of that, he managed to set trends like no one else could. The man pulled off tight jeans, white socks, and a button down shirt effortlessly. And his red leather jacket with zippered details and parachute pants were the epitome of the 80s. He wore gold plated military jackets far before the look became cool and there were of course the single glove, the fedora, and the arm band that he added as compliments to every outfit. He took the mundane and made it cool in much the same way that he took his lyrics and made them shine. I never thought I'd see a legend pass so quickly and so early. Michael Jackson will be missed by all of us.

Fashion Muse

One of my favorite celebrities is Pink (aka P!nk) i love her music and her attitude. she doesn’t conform to the typical pop-princess rules and has managed to be a huge success by being true to herself (or as much as she can be on a major record label). she doesn’t take herself too seriously - she knows how to have fun in her clothes & in her life. she has a good range - on all of her albums she has fast upbeat music but also has some pretty ballads. and her style is just the same - she can be styled super punky, but still has a sexy edge, other times she is very casual in a tank & cargo pants, but in a feminine way, and other times she is glamorous for the red carpet but always has her signature tattoos showing - i love it! she is definitely one of my style “hero’s”. in the fantasyland in my head, if i was a celebrity, i i think i would dress similar to her. in my day-to-day life, i definitely can’t dress to the extremes she does (i don’t have her figure either!), but i think her style is fun & inspiring.

CHEAPEST DATE EVER

So a friend of mine took chance and went out on a date with a guy she met in the club.

You know how it is when you meet a guy in a club (hmm Hmm)

Let's just say they went to a chain restaurant. She was looking fly, tight dress and sexy shoes.

She ordered appetizers, chicken entree and a few drinks.

He ordered appetizers the surf and turf, and several drinks.

They laughed, they talked, they dined.

She's seeing the potential for the second date or maybe even more.

So the bill came and no one moved.

He looked at the bill and she looked at bill.

He looked and she looked.

She went to the bathroom and came back and the bill was still there.

She looked at the bill and he looked at the bill. Then he finally said, "I left my wallet at home"

AWWWWWW!

Being the woman that she is she paid the bill and left him sitting at the table.

If it was me, I would ran out and left him there to wash the dishes to cover the charges.

What a Cheapo!

Q&A: How do I deal with puffy eyes?

Dear fashion team:
I love makeup and especially eye make up, but what can you do when you have a lil' puffiness under your eyes? Please tell me what I can do to make it less noticeable. Thank you! ~ Franchesca

Hi Franchesca. Thanks for writing in. Our expertise lies more in fashion, but being a bunch of girlie girls ourselves, we do have a few suggestions that may help you.

To prevent puffiness:

Drink lots of water. Puffiness can occur as a result of being dehydrated.
Get some sleep! Simply being rested will help...try to get a good 7-8 hours a night.
Replace your eye makeup every 2 months. Bacteria from old eye makeup can cause inflammation. So toss any old mascara and eyeliner...you know you want something fun and new anyway!

To disguise puffiness:

Apply a cold compress to the puffy area. Slice up some cucumbers, put them over your eyes and relax on the couch for a while!
Try hemorrhoid cream. Now, you should know that there is no clinical proof that this works, but some people swear that a dab of cream under the eye will reduce puffiness. (If you try this, let us know, we're curious to know your results!)
Use makeup to accentuate your upper lid and downplay your under eye:
1. Use a darker shadow in the crease of the eye.
2. Dab on a highlighter shade in the inner corners of the eyes.
3. Use eye liner to line your upper lashes only. Avoid lining under lower lashes, as that will just accentuate any puffiness.
4. Use mascara on your upper lashes, especially the outer lashes, and none on lower lashes.
