70’s Retro Fashion Ideas

So I have a party to attend this weekend and the theme is 70’s Retro. I like the 70’s fashion although I was too young to dress up during that period. Managed to find some inspiration online. Here are some of the 70’s retro fashion style that I want to try.  Will have to go through my wardrobe and pick out some clothes.

Fake Hair, Don’t Care

Do you follow celebrities on social media? If you do, you can keep tabs on what the celebrities are doing for their beauty routine or when they dramatically up their look with different hairstyles.  Beyonce is the Queen of changing her look.  She is always spotted with different hair lengths and colors.  Many fans learn how their favorite celebrities rely on wigs and extensions to change their hair color or style.   It is good to know that many women are willing to give wigs a try because of the celebrities.

Whether you want to go from a bob to mermaid-length hair overnight, or you want to sport a pastel shade on the weekends, it’s never been easier to experiment with blonde lace front wig.  Such hairpieces are appealing because they allow women to regularly transform the look without making a big commitment.

Hair chameleons like Zendaya and Katy Perry know the beauty of a good wig.  You can switch your look from one day to the next.  One of the most popular styles is blonde bundles with closure. They give a really natural hairline and it looks like the hair is growing out of your scalp.

Browse sites like Maxglamhair.com for a good selection of more affordable wigs, blonde bundles and ready-made options.  For those who need a wig because of hair loss, go with a monofilament cap. They are undetectable because they allow the scalp to show through and they do not require any adhesive.

How often you wash a human-hair wig depends on how often you wear it.  Once every 10 days is a good guideline. All you need is a moisturizing, drugstore shampoo and conditioner with warm water.  If you don’t have oil to take off your lace wig, use a rich conditioner as a substitute.  So go on and have some fun with wigs.

The Only Jumpsuit You Need This Season

I love jumpsuits because they are without a doubt, a statement style.  The head-to-toe, all in one garment creates a striking look.  It is not the easiest piece of clothing to pull-off but they can be styled in multiple ways.  The perfect all-in-one solution is a wardrobe staple.  Check out this lovely denim jumpsuit from Mango.

J Lo’s Statement Look

 

The ever-stylish Ms. Lopez was spotted donning this denim trouser recently.  It is so big that it looks like a maxi skirt.  Talk about voluminous. The entertainer paired the trouser with a classic striped sweater, hermes tote and hoop earrings.  What do you think of this statement style?  Would you invest in a pair?

Tips On How To Wear A Wig

Whether you are new to wig wearing or a pro, here are some of the best tips we have gathered to ensure that you have the best buying and wearing experience possible.

1. Have Confidence

Always adopt the right attitude for it is the key to pull off any hairstyle.  If you are always stressing, worrying and fidgeting with your brazilian hair wigs, it would not look good.  You have to own it!  Walk tall, be confident and you will be able to pull off any look you want.

2. Customize Your Style

Remember to take your wig to your hairstylist to have bangs cut or trimmed, shaped or thinned out to remove any excess bulk. A custom cut can make a world of difference to your wig.  Picture your wig like a designer suit. You can wear it off the rack (or out of the box), no doubt about it and it can look good.  However, with a little tailoring it can look even Greater!

3. Invest in the Right Wig Care Products

If you want your wig to last long, it is essential to keep it looking beautiful with the proper care products. Synthetic wigs require care products specifically formulated for synthetic hair. For human hair wigs, hair pieces and brazilian hair bundles , choose sulfate-free and paraben-free care products or products that are specifically formulated for color treated hair to keep the color looking vibrant and last longer.

4. Always Plan Ahead

Always have two wigs ready to wear at all times. This way you always have something to wear when you are washing your wig and have a back up if anything should happen to one.  Rotating between wigs also helps to extend the life.

5. Kitchen Tips

If you love to cook, always remember to never open the oven while wearing a synthetic wig.   The sudden burst of heat will ruin your wig; even the hot steam from a boiling pot of water can cause irreparable damage.

6. Tone Down the Shine

Some wigs look too shiny and unnatural.  To minimize shine, sprinkle a little hair powder on your wig, and then brush through for a more natural look.

7. Personalize Your Look

Add a hair accessory such as a headband, scarf or clip to a create a personal touch. Just because you are wearing a wig doesn’t mean you have to wear it the same way all the time. Be creative.

 8. Choose A Wig That Stays Close to your Current Style

A familiar style will help you feel more confident and make the transition from wearing your own hair to wearing wigs a good experience. Experiment with subtle style variations, but stay within your comfort zone.   Not all hair trends work for everyone so if you are new to wearing wigs try keeping it close to your current hairstyle!

9. Know Your Measurements

An ill-fitting wig is the worst.  You do not want your wig slipping off or to look misshapen because of excess bulk at the crown. This is why choosing the right size is just as important as finding the right color and style.

10. Create Different Hairstyles

If your hair is chin length or longer, try a half-up, half-down style. For longer wigs, try a loose updo or low ponytail.

To make these looks work; keep it soft, loose and a little messy. Keep the bangs down (unless you have a lace front wig) and pull down a few strands of hair along the hairline to keep it looking natural.

15. Don’t Be Afraid of Color

If you have found a wig you love and do not want to change your style, try a new color to freshen up your look.

Most people can wear up to three shades darker or lighter than their natural color. Also, don’t be afraid to change your color for the season. Go slightly lighter in the spring and summer and darker in the fall and winter.

Shoe Trend That Will Stick Around In 2018

I do not know about you but I have splurged on a pair of beautiful shoe and then a few months later, it is out of fashion.  Oh my poor heart and my pocket.  However, every now and then comes a trend that lasts well beyond the next season.  Here are a few of them that I love and we will be seeing more in 2018.

You probably have noticed that slides were everywhere in 2017.  We love this ladylike glamour and comfortable trusty flats.

Tips On Choosing Beautiful And Affordable Bridesmaid Dresses

Congratulations on your big day!  If you have already found your wedding dress, that is awesome.  The next task on the list is to find the perfect dress for your bridal party. Yes, the dress shopping is far from over.   Searching for bridesmaid dresses can be equally stressful because this time you are shopping for a few different people with different body types and interests.

Luckily bridesmaids today have a variety of gorgeous options because there are many affordable bridesmaid dresses online.   Here are some stress-free tips on picking out the dresses:-

1. Take a look at your own wedding dress.  What is your overall wedding style?  Is it modern, bohemian, classic or vintage?  Your bridesmaids’ dresses should follow the same vibe.

2.  The color of the dresses.  If your bridesmaids have a range of fair, olive and dark skin tones, you may want to make sure that the dress color flatters everyone.  Do keep the hair color in mind too because a unique shade may clash with a person with redhead.

3. Take into consideration the season and the time of the day of your wedding.  It is a huge factor especially when it comes to the decor of your wedding.  Peonies and spring color are best for May.  Black dresses are nice for November but not if it is an outdoor, mid-day ceremony.

4.  Most bridesmaids would like to have some input on what they will be wearing so it is good to be flexible. Having said that,  too many opinions can make the whole process miserable.  Look for a brand that offers similar dresses with different necklines, for example.  You can choose the color and fabric, and each girl can decide on the style most flattering for her body type.

5. Always remember that it is your day. Do not succumb to pressure to make everyone happy.  You should keep an open mind and be understanding, but your bridesmaids are there to support you and should work with your vision.
