Miranda Kerr 'misquoted' over Coconut Oil, put the tablespoon down

Thumbnail image for miranda_kerr_cdfa.jpgA coconut oil frenzy has settled over the media right now: it's basically the new goji berry, after Miranda Kerr apparently told Cosmopolitan that she loves it and uses four tablespoons of the stuff a day.
This however, led to some backlash after nutritionists said that eating so much of it is dangerous - and now Miranda has revealed that that was a misquote anyway.
"I never did an interview with Australian Cosmopolitan magazine and unfortunately they have misquoted and misrepresented comments posted on my blog", she said. "When it comes to coconut oil, I personally find it beneficial and use approximately four teaspoons of coconut oil a day (in my salads and meals), not tablespoons."
Miranda added, "Everyone is different, but that is what works for me and I prefer it as a substitute to other oils more readily used in day-to-day food preparation and cooking. I suggest people consult with their health practitioner for what is right for them."
So guys - cool it on the coconut oil front!

Emma Watson does androgyny at GQ Awards

emma_watson_gq_awards.jpgWouldn't have thought that face of LancĂ´me Emma Watson would be one of the first celebrities to sport the androgynous trend that's set to be big for A/W, but at the GQ awards in London last night, she proved me wrong!
Sporting understated but flawless skin, with just a touch of colour in the cheeks to accentuate her cheekbones, strong eyebrows, feathery eyelashes and her cropped hair pushed back, Emma's tough chic look completely complimented her tartan Alexander McQueen dress. A refreshing change!
What do you think of her look? PS Keep your eyes peeled for our guide on getting the trend, coming soon!

Wedding Guest Attire for Summer 2011

Brides can be unpredictable once the actual wedding day rolls around. As a guest, it is best to steer clear of the hazard zone. This can be easily accomplished by following a simple fashion standard: do not wear white. If bridezilla awakens, you will safely be out of the line of fire.

Good news is that this season, the plethora of colorful dress options is breathtaking.

As a former member of a dress buying team in New York City, I can tell you that these seductive fabrics, stunning cuts and dazzling colors will be very memorable. Think ultra-feminine this wedding season, but you may want to forgo sky high stilettos for a bash on unpredictable ground. If you receive an invitation for a more casual outdoor wedding, think about investing in a platform wedge to protect your Louboutin heels, and not be overdressed. As wedding atmospheres continue to span farther and farther away from hotels and catering halls, as a guest, you may need to expand your wedding attire options. This style guide will offer you complete looks for various wedding environments for 2011.

Winery Wedding






TIBI's Anick Beading dress exquisitely captures the romantic essence of a winery wedding. The dainty capsleeve can be beautifully complimented with Stuart Weitzman Metallic Leather Espadrilles and a Hobo International Ivory Patent clutch to complete the look.

Wedding in a Park




Slip into Alice + Olivia's nature-inspired Kaitlyn Sequin Bust Dress for these free-spirited park nuptials. The sparkly chic look will come to life with Jimmy Choo's Metallic Slingback Espadrilles and Marc Jacobs Vanessa Simple Metallic Mini Bag.

Beach Wedding


With a sandy shore and crashing waves in front of a sunset, the exchanging of the vows becomes music to our ears. Express your natural beauty with DVF's Elalia Dress, effortlessly paired with Lilly Pulitzer's silver Glam Snake sandal. Decorate your arm with this bohemian chic Ippolita 5-stone bangle, and tightly grip this Nancy Gonzalez clutch.

Hair Growing Tip 2011












Hair Growing Tips

Some hair loss experts have discovered that people have excellent hair growing results by following the Zone Diet, which is low in fat.   Many other hair care experts recommend the Zone Diet as very helpful for hair care concerns.
Here are some other hair growing tips:
  1. Eliminate or cut back on smoking, caffeine and carbonated sodas which weaken the body and block maximum hair growing potential.

  2. Eat a healthy diet.  Avoid foods that are high in sugar or fat.

  3. Treat your hair like a piece of fine old lace.  Treat it carefully avoiding any unnecessary brushing, combing or handling.

  4. Avoid use of hot water, hot blow dryers or other hair care tools that may stress the hair.

  5. Have a weekly scalp massage to provide stimulation to the hair follicles.

  6. Do a series of ongoing hot oil treatments to protect the hair's shaft.

  7. Have regular trims to eliminate split ends and allow the hair to look and feel healthier.

  8. Get plenty of rest and sleep to allow your body to grow hair.
