Dior Shades

Always on the look out for the perfect shades, this season I am loving the Dior collection. The shape is gorgeous and it fits so well (at least for me it does).

I especially love these Dior Couture shades- in black that is, this color just does not compliment me. The shape and fit is fabulous and the "D" on the sides with flowers on it is just adorable and oh-so-pretty!

Another one with a cute logo is this Dior Extralight I, where a heart replaces the "o". Although the shape looks a bit flat for my tastes.
I also love the rounded shape of these Dior Glossy. Unfortunately I do not have the face shape for this, but if you do, it'll look awesome!For something more subtle and different from the classic plastic frames, there are these Toreadior aviators with swarovski crystals on the side.
I know the heading is "Dior" shades, but I can't resist sticking these Chanel shades in. I am not so hot about the shape though, maybe they have a different style. But I just adore the quillt and camelia flower on the side, its so pretty!

Summer Shorts

With the intense heat waves sweeping all over Europe and the States, I read somewhere that people were actually encouraged to wear shorts to work. To make sure that everyone stays cool stylishly, I've picked out some of the best shorts around! These two, from See by Chloe, are my favourite short looks. The striped shorts on the left paired with that pretty white blouse is simple and ladylike- perfect for work. The structured beige shorts matched with the more casual top is just so cool. I love these two looks!
Other stripey shorts include these ones from Charlotte Ronson and Cacharel respectively. I especially love the Cacharel one because I have something very similar from Vanessa Bruno and its been fabulous.
For more officey and simpler choices, there are these two from Paul and Joe and Twelfth St by Cynthia Vincent. The length and the more structured cut makes it easy to pair with the rest of your wardrobe. And this classic style may even last you for the seasons to come!
For that extra feminine touch, I am loving these white ribbon belts on these Armani Exchange and Ya-Ya shorts. The material of the A/X shorts looks very nice and breezy. And the satiny shiny material of the belt on the Ya-Ya shorts even make it look a little glam!
For something a little special and more cool, I like these ruched up shorts with all the strings and zippers. Pair it up with a punk tank and heels. annd you're ready for a concert. Or put on a blazer to give it a more ladylike balance. Either way, it looks cool. These two are from Top Shop and Armani Exchange.

Stay stylishly cool everyone!

Jennifer Aniston is Best Hair Styles of the Week

Jennifer Aniston Long, Wavy Signature Hair Styles

When you look at the tabloids and virtually any celebrity photo of Jennifer Aniston ever published, you will quickly discover that she is a big fan of wearing her hair down, long. Actually, I can't remember every seeing her with her hair pulled up, even at her wedding to Brad Pitt.

She refuses to follow the crowd and wear the sophisticated updos at all the red carpet events. I can certainly relate to her. I have never liked the way I look with my hair in an updo. I feel very uncomfortable and ackward.

To create Jennifer's winning signature style, apply a styling cream throughout your hair. Blow dry your hair using a large round brush, pulling all long layers under and down. Next you can create the waves all over using a medium barrel curling iron. Always be sure to let the hair cool completely before arranging the curls. Finish off with a shine serum or spray.

Until the next time! Have a great hair week!
