For a lot of us, our glasses are the first thing we put on in the morning. And while there are everyday basics that are constant go-to's, it's nice to be able to put on a pair that reflects your personal style (and fits your budget).Think of the many combinations that can come into play: round, square, rectangle, metal, plastic, acetate, and the lists goes on.

Celebrity-Inspired Neutral Eyeshadow Looks That Are Anything But Boring

Image
Neutral eyeshadow shades don't have to be the filler songs of your palettes. It's true that yes, an earth tone is often needed in the background when you're creating a jewel-toned or vibrant smoky eye, but the subtle colors can hold their own, too.While it might seem that the only you're going to get any impact from wearing a neutral eyeshadow is by sweeping it across your entire lid up to the brow bone, a creative application can make a subtle shade stand out—but not so much that it will defeat the purpose of choosing a soft, natural shadow in the first place.Need inspiration? We turned to the red carpet to see how some of Hollywood's biggest wear subtle eyeshadow colors.  1. JESSICA CHASTAIN Instead of using a black liquid liner to draw on a cat eye, use an earth tone shadow for a softer effect. Jessica Chastain chose a shimmery, warm terracotta shade that compliments her ginger hair. For a similar look, try Laura Mercier's Baked Eyeshadow in Terracot

The Best Mid-Size Gold Hoop Earrings To Buy Now

Image
Hoops earrings go way back. And we aren’t referring to your grandmothers’ (but we bet those are amazing, too). We're talking about centuries back—to around 2600 B.C. when they were the earring of choice for Sumerian women. One thing’s for sure, they have certainly evolved since then. We have seen all sizes fall in and out of trend over the decades, from the larger-thicker versions in the '70s and '80s to the really oversized and skinny designs in the '90s and early 2000s. Currently, we can’t get the mid-size gold versions off our mind. If you want to make a statement with your hoops, we urge you to turn to twisted or textured versions. If your style is more classic and minimal, try a shiny true-round pair. Whatever look you are going for, one thing is certain: You don’t want to put anything else in your ears.  1. 14K GOLD HOOPS Pair these with a chunky-knit turtleneck.  2. 14K GOLD HOOP EARRINGS Wear these with a low bun for maximum impact. 3.

How Facial Yoga Can Make You Look 3 Years Younger

You know that exercise can help keep your body looking healthy and youthful as you age. Now, dermatologists say that a facial exercise regimen can have similar benefits above the neck: Women who followed a 30-minute “facial yoga” routine several times a week appeared nearly three years younger after 20 weeks, according to a research letter published in JAMA Dermatology. Interest in so-called facial yoga has grown in recent years, largely because of claims that it can “rejuvenate the aging face, presumably by inducing underlying muscle growth,” the authors of the new paper wrote. Until now, however, there have been no published clinical trials to assess whether these types of exercises really can improve appearance of the skin and facial features. So dermatologists and researchers from Northwestern University teamed up with Gary Sikorski, the creator of Happy Face Yoga, to test his technique out on a small group of middle-aged women who wanted to look younger. The women were bet

It feels like we’ve been waiting for decades to see Margot Robbie’s buzzy Tonya Harding biopic I, Tonya. But, as they say, the best things in life are worth waiting for, and we’re willing to say Robbie’s high-fashion press tour is one of those things. Lucky for us, it’s only just begun. With a full awards season ahead of her, we’re assuming the Australian actress’s covetous style is just going to keep escalating—perhaps she’ll walk the carpet as an Oscar nominee next March … ? 1. SEPTEMBER 8, 2017 Robbie arrived at I, Tonya's Toronto International Film Festival debut in a floral cornflower blue Erdem gown. 2.
