5 Packing List Travel Essentials For The Airport

$

0

Every stylish fashionista needs to stay organized with her packing list while traveling. The worst is being caught with overweight luggage, too many carry-on bags, and/or trying to juggle your feline on one arm with your overly heavy Celine Phantom containing your laptop, makeup, water bottle, and neck pillow on the other arm, whilst rushing to the furthest airport gate. Going through TSA is no fun while apologizing to the travelers behind you for holding up the security line — all the while your fluffy marshmallow colored kitty is meowing on your shoulder and travelers are complimenting you on your … gorgeous white stole? No, that’s my cat’s tail, sir! Essentially, it stinks being disorganized, especially in an airport setting.  But, fret not, we aren’t going to let disorganization and embarrassment happen to you. Read on for our packing list that includes 5 essentials for airport travel.

Packing List: 5 Essentials For The Airport

  1. Toiletries Bag – a must have!  We love the Emme Bag because it makes things easy to get through security in a jiffy. Enclosed, it comes with removable plastic bags to keep your essentials organized.

    The removable plastic bags make it easy to whip out your small, sealed liquids at security and plastic bags also prevent liquids from spilling throughout your bag…in the unfortunate event. Designed with travel in mind, the Emme Bag can be purchased here.

  2. Scarf – this fashionable accessory is great for the plane because it tends to get chilly while up in the air.  A scarf can be worn around your neck or tied to your tote while walking through the airport and once on the plane it can be used as a pillow or blanket. We love Leigh & Luca scarves for travel which can be purchased here.
  3. Neck Pillow - is a must for long flights to support your neck and get some good zzz’s. Purchase your neck pillow here.
  4. Duffle Bag – A small duffle bag is ideal for airport travel because all of your essentials can fit perfectly. You will have no problem fitting your neck pillow, Emme bag, laptop, makeup, and scarf in a stylish and durable duffle.  Shop rolling Tommy Hilfiger Duffle Bag here.
  5. Noise Canceling Headphones - oh how relaxing it is to not have to hear the engines on a long plane ride or the chatty passenger next to you. Listening to music or movies is so much nicer!  Purchase the Bose “QuietComfort 15″ headphones, they’re definitely worth the investment!

Fashion Tips: 10 Must Have Summer Accessories

Hooray for summer!  For lazy days by the pool and at the beach, and for hot days and even hotter nights (wink, wink)! Even though summer is the most relaxed season of the year, you still gotta look stylish, and with our fashion tips, you’ll see how easy it is to achieve that effortless summer style.  Below, we’ve put together a list of our 10 must-have accessories for summer that will have you looking so put together, while at the same time appearing as effortless as the season itself.  Now with all of these hot summer fashion tips and accessory must haves, you can go on and enjoy your summer while looking amazing.

10 Accessories And Fashion Tips For Summer

fashinot tips - must have summer accessories1)     Bold Necklace – Sexy summer necklines are the perfect place to display a big, bold, chunky necklace. Draw attention to yourself and to that cute top you are wearing with a statement piece in a fun color! The key is to mix and match such as a turquoise necklace with a yellow top, or pink with coral. Be playful…we dare you!

2)     Bright Scarf – That’s right, we said scarf…in summer!  Think lightweight fabrics and prints. There may be no other accessory as versatile as a scarf. You can glam up and tie it around your head à la Audrey Hepburn while cruising up the coast in a convertible; you can wrap it loosely around your neck in lieu of a necklace with a basic tee or dress; and it can even double as a wrap over your shoulders if you catch a cool breeze or too much AC.  Oh the possibilities!

3)     Haute Hat – We love the sun as much as anyone, but do you know what we don’t love? Lines! Not at the club and certainly not on our face! Take cover and protect your beautiful self from damaging rays with a big, wide brim hat. Besides, a girl in a hat looks so incredibly stylish…no one has to know that the reason you are really wearing it is because you are having a bad hair day (can you say humidity?)!

4)    Sassy Sunglasses – Love these! We should have put this as #1 as it is our absolute fave! Even if Chanel, Gucci, and Dior aren’t hanging in your closet, their sunglasses can be affordable. Rock your favorite designer shades and instantly feel yourself transform into the likes of every celebrity walking around Hollywood incognito. And, if you don’t really care about that, then refer to the reason for the haute hat in #3.

5)     Colorful Clutch – Stop! Before you walk out of your front door, what color is your handbag? Now slowly put the black bag down and empty its contents into a fun colorful one instead. This is an easy way to add a pop of color to any outfit and we are obsessed with the Kate Spade “Holly Street-Remi Clutch” in Maraschino.

Shop our favorite accessories for summer:

6)     Fashionable Flip Flops – It doesn’t get much more carefree than flip flops, and there are so many jeweled sandals with stones, crystals, and embellishments that there is absolutely no reason to wear anything less than fabulousnous on your feet.

7)     White Watch – Not to tell time, silly, that is what your iPhone is for, but to wear as a crisp, summer accessory. Besides, white will bring out your tan that you worked so hard for by laying out all day.

8)     Beach Bags – During the day, you might find yourself at the beach, then taking a stroll through town to shop, and all of a sudden it is happy hour and you just have to have a fruity cocktail! An oversized, slouchy tote bag will fit your cover up, shoes, and all of your other beach day essentials and beauty products to touch up and stay on the go!

9)     Bangles – Is there anything sexier than sparkly bangles grazing up and down your bronzed arm? We think not. We love all of the bracelets in the Glam & Sassy summer collection.  The silver bangles all come with several in a bunch, so all you have to do is slide them on and then show your sparkle!

10)   Chandelier Earrings – Too hot to blow dry today? No problem. Throw your hair in a high pony and put on statement earrings. Chandelier earrings are on trend this summer and they are definitely eye catching.

The high temps and intense summer humidity can leave any fabulous gal struggling with what the most ideal summer hairstyles are.  Using a blow dryer is the utmost last thing we want do during the summer heat, and as such, the summer season is the perfect opportunity to give your mane a break from all the styling!  Hello beach waves, long loose hair, and messy braid!  Below, we show you how to style your hair for the heat with 3 fab hairstyles that will not only keep you cool, but also won’t involve icky blow dryers, flat irons, and/or hours in the steamy hot bathroom! Just think of all the fun you can have with the time you’ll be saving on your hair.

3 Summer Hairstyles To Beat The Heat

1. The Side Braid

The key to an of the moment sexy side braid is loads of volume. Start by prepping hair with all over mousse and a root lifter for ultimate volume. Also, changing the direction of your part will add a natural boost. summr hairstyles - beach waves - nubryStart with a deep side part and gather hair at the base of your neck. Loosely braid all hair, leaving about an inch at the end and secure with an elastic that matches your hair color. Then, use your fingers to tug and separate the braid to create a look that is part Hollywood starlet and part Mermaid.

2. Beachy Waves

What’s more fitting for warm weather hair than Victoria’s Secret supermodel beachy waves? This effortless look is so simple you’ll be tempted to do it daily! Start by washing your hair the night before. With slightly damp hair apply a curl cream or spray to your hair and comb thru. Divide hair into 2 sections and twist each of them in the same direction leaving about an inch at the ends loose. Next, take the 2 twisted sections and twist them together into a bun and secure with bobby pins overnight. In the morning (or 4-6 hours later if you’re doing this during the day) remove the pins and let the twists loose. Use your fingers to break up the waves and create a messy, tousled look. Finish by spraying a bit of dry shampoo to create volume at the roots and use a Sea Salt spray to create added texture on the waves. Voila!

3. High Ponytail

The perfect way to style second day hair, a high ponytail with loads of volume! Start this look by brushing thru hair and using an SPF spray to protect those strands! Pull all hair back into a high ponytail and secure with a no-break hair tie. Take a 1 inch section of hair from the underside and wrap it around the hair tie and secure with a bobby pin to create a dressier look. Finish by gently teasing the crown of the pony tail for added volume and spray with a texturizing Sea Salt spray for added body and volume. This easy look is perfect for the beach or a night out on the town!

Do you wear makeup when you workout? Or, perhaps you secretly wear makeup at the gym hoping no one will notice … maybe you don’t wear any at all! Well, there are many reasons why its okay to wear makeup for working out at the gym and we’re going to share a laundry list with you! As fashion and beauty experts, we still weren’t sure if it was okay to come out and say,”it’s true, I wear makeup before sweating it all off at Orange Theory and Barry’s Bootcamp.”

k sport beauty bootcamp at rancho valencia - nourished baance - nubry

Healthy cooking at K-Sport Beauty Bootcamp with Chef Amy Pamensky of Nourished Balance.

Katherine Cosmetics actually has a line of makeup specifically for working out!  It’s called K-Sport beauty.  We recently took Saturday off to attend K-Sport Beauty Bootcamp with Annie Finch, founder of Katherine Cosmetics and former Estée Lauder executive, at Rancho Valencia for a beauty and wellness experience, whilst also learning how to apply makeup for working out.  We then proceeded to work out with fab personal trainer Adam Schepps — in our makeup — and we’re talking spinning, TRX, yoga, nature jogs, and riding horses.  Of course, in between, we took breaks for nourishing green juices, healthy snacks, and cooking lessons with Chef Amy Pamensky of Nourished Balance, as well as inspirational balanced life sessions by Lavinia Erricos, founder of Equinox, and champagne and cocoa healthy truffles to end the day.

Welp, let’s get to the 10 reasons why it’s okay to wear makeup for working out at the gym. Read on…

_________________________

Why It’s OK To Wear Makeup To The Gym

1. Your trainer is hot

2. You pay a lot for your Lululemon and Lorna Jane workout outfits. Actually, they cost as much as cocktail dresses and you wouldn’t go to a party without makeup on!

3. You’ll spend more time working out if you look good, so put makeup on.

4. How will you achieve your workout results if you don’t workout a lot only because you don’t look good enough…refer to #3.

Katherine cosmetics sport makeup

5. Going to the gym, Orange Theory, Fitwall, Yoga, Pilates, Barre, Soul Cycle, and/or Barry’s Bootcamp is like going to your local coffee shop, you are bound to run into someone you know!

6. It is NOT okay to reapply makeup while working out…no pocket mirrors on the treadmill

7. Your trainer is hot … refreshing #1.

8. Head to the 6am workouts, with makeup on of course…that’s when the hot guys workout who have jobs!  A little eye candy never hurt anyone and you are eye candy too.

9. Make sure your makeup is for working out and not overpowering.  No fake eyelashes or anything woman!  Remember, this is still the gym and not Live TV.

10. If you go to boot camp, it’s a long day of working out and you will want some makeup on to motivate you to get through your workouts!

What To Wear To Polo White Party

First and foremost you will want to wear white, off-white or a subdued color.  You really cant go wrong as long as you wear a white dress. We recommend a short above the knee dress or midi length to keep you cool during the day.  If you are wearing a fitted dress, make sure you will be comfortable all day even if it is hot! A maxi white dress can be very elegant for polo as well.  Pair your white dress with a straw hat to make your white pop! A fedora is also very stylish for the polo games.  P.S. Women can wear Men’s fedoras like those the men wore to the Del Mar races.  Bring a pair of sunglasses and remember that you will be on grass so wear wedges or sandals.  No compromise in wearing sandals! In fact, Azzurra Capri Swarovski sandals are jewels to your feet.

15 Style Rules To Break During New York Fashion Week

Throughout the years, the fashion world has created many rules, many of which we must adamantly follow. As New York Fashion Week SS’15 approaches this Thursday, there are some serious style rules that you’ll want to take note of. We’ve been taught not to wear white after Labor Day, that we never wear our socks with our heels, that we not mix leopard print with an entirely different print, and that we remember to always take 1 accessory off before we leave the house.

Fashion rules to break at NYFW ... new york fashion week ss15

Fashion rules to break at NYFW …

Rules like these have long been followed by fashion lovers everywhere, but old fashion adages are being thrown out the window as new trends go against everything we know. As designers embrace known fashion faux pas, we see “ugly trends” pop up all over the runways … and we’re so okay with it.

From models wearing flirty ankle socks with high heels to street style stars mixing prints, designers everywhere are proving that some fashion rules are just made to be broken. Girl, go out and rock a few classic fashion no’s this week! With New York Fashion Week SS’15 just days away, there’s no better time to get started pushing your fashion limits! Below, we list 15 style rules that you should break now!

New York Fashion Week: 15 Style Rules Meant To Be Broken

1. Don’t Mix Gold and Silver Jewelry

Mixing gold and silver jewelry can be a totally chic way to amp up the look of your outfit. We hate this rule!

2. Sequins are for Evening Only

Wearing sparkly clothes can look great in the day time by dressing it down, so it doesn’t look like you’re headed to the night club. Trying wearing a sequin skirt or clutch with casual materials like cotton or silk.

Sequins for day!

Sequins for day!

3. Don’t Let Your Bra Show

Some bras are too pretty to be covered up. Show off a nice lacy bra or a pretty bralette by wearing a sheer shirt or a shirt with low cut sides or front for a sultry look.

Mixing prints!

Mixing prints!

4. Don’t Mix Prints

You can see mixed prints in almost every fashion magazine, website, fashion blog, and runway. Try your hand at it by wearing different prints in your next outfit.

5. Clutches are for the Evening

Clutches are no longer for the evening. With clutches coming in different sizes and colors they can be worn at any time of day. We love the oversized clutch for day.

new york fashion week style rules - mint monochromatic outfit

Wear monochromatic looks!

6. Don’t Wear One Shade from Head-to-Toe

The monochromatic look is a cute new trend that is so easy to rock. Definitely break this rule at NYFW!

7. Shorts are Only for the Summer

Wear some chic or colorful tights under shorts for a cute fall look. We love Bootights for fall/winter because they support your feet with extra padding compared to a regular tight.

8. Don’t Wear White After Labor Day

This is such an old rule and it’s about time that you break it! White dresses, skirts, and shoes are so cute and they shouldn’t be limited to being worn at a certain time of year. Think winter white!

new york fashion week style rules - ankle socks with heels

Wear ankle socks with heels!

9. Less is More When it Comes to Jewelry

Piling on jewelry is the new trend now of days, ahem, remember The Man Repeller’s “Arm party” style invention?

10. Don’t Wear Denim on Denim

Really? Today, you can see celebs everywhere sporting this trend. Try it!

11. Short Women Shouldn’t Wear Long Dresses or Skirts

This rule has been around for a long time, but it’s completely not true. Long dresses and skirts can actually make women look taller if the fit is right…just slip on a pretty heel to offset the length.

12. Tall Women Shouldn’t Wear Heels

Who came up with this rule anyway? Tall girls should wear whatever they want, especially heels. Hello supermodel!

13. Red Lipstick is for the Evening

Red lipstick is such a bold, bright color that it should be rocked at any time of day. See how to apply perfect red lips here.

Clutches are for daytime too!

Clutches are for daytime too!

14. Sneakers are Only for the Gym

Sneakers come in super cute styles and colors these days. It’s almost impossible to not wear them outside of the gym!

15. Only Wear One Bold Color at a Time

Take bright colors to the extreme by rocking different bold colors at one time, especially neons and pastels.

5 Surprising Training Myths And Exercise Tips To Improve Your Health

$

Lean gals run from fat gain, obesity, and disease by eating healthy and exercising regularly. Yah yah, we’ve heard it all, we know how to stay lean.  But, according to Dr. Brett Osborn, only 20% of people actually achieve the recommended amount of necessary exercise!  With the right exercise tips and training program, we all can achieve optimum health and lean figures.  Below, we debunk 5 training myths — some of which may surprise you!  Follow our exercise tips and you’ll be on your way to a healthier, leaner, and disease free life.

Training Myths Debunked + Exercise Tips To Improve Your Health

1. Myth: the more exercise, the better

Yes, exercising too much can actually be bad for you. Nice problem to have, right? Exercising too much can actually be detrimental to your body and health, not to mention a waste of time.

Exercise Tips Nubry Jen Selter

Jen Selter, Instagram phenom, shows us how to tone up the healthy way.

Moderation is key! Three to four hours per week of exercise is a happy medium and a healthy goal for weekly exercise. Yay!

2. Myth: cardio is my friend, lifting is for men

Every gal needs to lift weights and have a strength training regimen.  Lifting weights builds muscles and muscles burn more calories while at rest, while also increasing your metabolism.  Score!

3. Myth: weights will make me big and muscular

This is the furthest from the truth as women do not have the same hormones as men do that make them strong, buff, and muscular. Women who lift weights will actually just become more shapely and feminine. Say hello to curves and fitting into that little black dress or those skinny jeans!

4. Myth: product “X” will solve all of my weight problems

Products and false exercise ti0ps are pushed at us constantly, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re good for us … even if we are told they are!  We cannot build muscle or become healthy by taking a pill. Being healthy takes hard work, commitment, determination, consistency, as well as moderation. No machine, outfit, or pill will do the trick alone.

5. Myth: crossfit is the best weight loss program

Crossfit requires heavy lifting from novice athletes, which can cause injuries and thus set one’s workout goals back by months. Pounding the body 5 times per week breaks down muscle mass and is unhealthy. Crossfit also encourages eating Paleo, which is a low-insulin diet; however, insulin is a necessary part of building muscle!

Son Jung Wan debuted her spring 2015 collection at New York Fashion Week on September 6th, 2014 and it was everything we hoped it would be! Dewy faced and sleek haired male and female models walked the runway in monochromatic separates with matching footwear. A ready to wear collection from Son Jung Wan meant relaxed fits, mixing of textures, asymmetrical tops and very wearable dresses, boxy playsuits and on-the-go jumpsuits, as well as neutral hues like gold and cream and deep rich hues like plum, jungle green, deep blue, and burgundy.

Finale at Son Jung Wan SS’15 – embellished sequin jumpsuit!

Standouts of the collection were the rich emerald green silk dress, the bling bling zippers on nearly every piece, and the finale jumpsuit that was embellished with thousands of sequins, beads, and bling. Wowie, need this!  Son Jun Wan spring 2015 collection is for the independent and strong-willed female who works, but also plays, and always enters the room in style, comfort, and sophistication.

Celebrities in the SJW SS’15 front row with us were Kelly Rutherford from CW’s Gossip Girl, TV Personality Kelli Bensimon, and Toni Trucks from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 and TNT’s TV Series, Franklin & Bash. Below, get inspired with photos from Son Jung Wan’s spring 2015 collection.

NYFW spring 2015 came and went so quickly and although our time spent in NYC is a bit of a crazy blur, we wanted to share with you some of the most fabulous outfits and coolest trends, like lace cutouts, that we sported at the shows!  New York Fashion Week street style ranges from classy and sophisticated to outlandish, wacky, and super statement.  Depending on our mood of the day and shows we were to attend, our ensembles and brand of choice tended to change drastically!  On day 1 of New York Fashion Week Spring 2015, we chose to wear Yuna Yang Collection, a New York-based, Korean designer, whose label features women’s high-end couture that harmonizes the quality of traditional couture with modern vision. Each of Yuna’s designs is an art piece inspired by her own journey through the cultures of three continents as an artist, educator, and raconteur.

Our first day in the city took us from Mercedes Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center to the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater for Yuna’s spring ’15 runway show.  Below, we’re wearing Yuna Yang Collection for NYFW Day 1.  I chose a flowy, minty gray, chiffon gown with asymmetrical detailing, high slit, and spaghetti straps and accessoriezed with navy Chanel bag and Maui Jim “Maverick” aviator sunglasses. whilst Britt chose a fabulous ivory, midi skirt paired with a lace cutout or eyelet cropped jacket.  Shop the lace cutout trend here.  Note: Eyelet, lace, and crochet are still immensely popular and will continue to be huge spring 2015 must-haves … we’re looking forward to it! What New York Fashion Week street style trends are your favorite from the spring 2015 shows?

We gals love a good weekend (or weekday) escape and what better than use the October and November months as our excuse for 1 or 2 fabulous fall getaways near Southern California?  Whether you’re longing to hear the crunch of leaves beneath your feet or just not quite ready to say “farewell” to lazy days by the pool … well, we’ve got you covered with a list of fab fall getaways that are convenient to get away to for Southern Californians!  Want to get away to Florida this fall season?  Click here for our Florida Travel Guide. Now that the Summer crowds have dwindled, you’ll be able to get a better bang for your hard earned buck on hotels, hotspots, getaways, and may even find some ridiculous fall travel packages.  Below, we’ve chosen 3 cities in or nearby to Southern California that you can easily get away to for the weekend without breaking the bank!  So, where are you headed, hmm?

____________________

Best Travel Guide: Fall Getaways For SoCal

fall getaways for southern california

find out where to travel this fall near Southern California with our fabulous travel guide below…

1. Get Away To Palm Springs

If you refuse to believe that lazy days of Summer are over, then a trip to Palm Springs may be right up your alley.  With Fall temperatures comfortably in the 80’s, it’s the perfect time to spend a few days poolside or check out the Palm Springs Aerial Tram for breathtaking views of the Coachella Valley.

fab fall getaways - southern california travel guide - colony palms hotelWhere to stay:

Where to eat:

  • Check out Appetitio Cal-Italian Deli for their Ricotta Gnocchi
  • Cheeky’s Palm Springs has delicious, farm fresh brunch

Can’t Miss:

  • Shopping the “Rodeo Drive of the Desert” (aka El Paseo) in Palm Desert–think Gucci, Saks, and Escada
  • For a morning cup of coffee, stop into the newly opened Ernest Coffee in Uptown Palm Springs
  • When the sun goes down, a Tiki-inspired libation can be found at numerous spots including Bootlegger Tiki and Tonga Hut

What to pack:

  • Your bikini
  • Fabulous sandals for day and night (people rarely rock heels in Palm Springs)
  • A light scarf for the evening
  • Colorful maxi dresses
  • Sunblock
  • A bright tote bag

2. Get Away To Las Vegas

Longing for a weekend of exciting nightlife, culinary adventures, and world class shopping?   Las Vegas is a hop, skip, and a jump (okay, or a quick flight) from Southern California and offers the best of city life and incredible shopping.  A trip to the Forum Shops at Caesar’s will leave you lusting over a new Louis Vuitton and about a thousand other things!.  Fall temperatures range from the low 80’s to the upper 60’s and the nights do get chilly, so remember to pack a jacket.

fab fall getaways - southern california travel guide - las vegas sin cityWhere To Stay:

Where to eat: The possibilities are endless!  A few faves include Yellowtail Sushi at Bellagio, Aureol at Mandalay Bay, and Bazaar at the SLS (can we talk about their heavenly Brussels Sprouts for a second…?).

Can’t Miss:

  • With cooler temperatures, it’s the best time of year to check out the Neon Graveyard, the home to nearly all the original Las Vegas signs.
  • The Freemont Street Experience offers a chance to zip-line above the Old Strip
  • The “High Roller” at the newly opened Linq takes you high above the New Strip

What To Pack:

  • Fabulous heels
  • A cocktail dress…or 2
  • Casual shoes/clothes for daytime
  • A glittery clutch
  • Band-aids, Advil, and Water to help recover from your night

3. Get Away To San Luis Obispo

If it’s not fall to you without golden colored leaves, the smell of spices, and picking pumpkins, then check out San Luis Obispo, CA — midway between Los Angeles and San Francisco.  Home to some of the best wine on the Central Coast, SLO (as the locals call it) is a stunning setting of small beaches, rolling hills, and giant Oak trees.  Just a few minutes from Downtown is Avila Valley Barn, a throwback, rustic barn with corn field maze and pumpkin patch (hello, fall season!). You can also pick up freshly canned jams and homemade pies to enjoy once your cozy weekend comes to an end.  Fall temps hover in the low 70’s/upper 60’s during the day and drop in the evenings.

fab fall getaways - southern california travel guide -San Luis ObispoWhere To Stay: Apple Farm offers charming, country inspired rooms complete with fireplaces and their “Fall for The Apple Farm” special gives you a killer rate of $139.

Where To Eat:

  • F. McClintocks Saloon on Higuera serves up world famous Tri Tip cooked the Central Coast way
  • Custom House in the coastal community of Avila Beach is a must for seafood lovers and those who want to sip craft beer

Can’t Miss: Thursday boasts “Market Night” in Downtown SLO — complete with farmer’s market food, kettle corn and entertainment.  Just a short drive away are dozens of wineries including Justin in Paso Robles, Edna Valley, and Cass.

What To Pack:

  • Destroyed boyfriend or skinny jeans
  • A scarf
  • Booties
  • Cozy sweaters
  • A go-with-everything bag
  • A sweater dress for dinner

Wondering what to tell your man when he tells you next week that it’s that time again to get his bimonthly hair cut?  Tell him, “No!”  The hottest mens hairstyles as of late are all described by adjectives like long, shaggy, tousled, loose, and effortless — ohhh yes!  Although shaggy hair for men is trending right now, the men’s ponytail is definitely a goal to strive for as a male — but if your guy is constantly at the hair salon, he will never be able to achieve pony status!   Based on both New York Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2014 and Spring/Summer 2015 male hair trends, men’s hairstyles are proving to be longer, shaggier, cooler, and more #fabuluxe — and we have to admit that we’re totally loving it!  Look to Julien Chabbott, NYC entrepreneur,

    Look to Julien Chabbott and Orlando Bloom for tips on the latest mens hairstyles ...

Look to Julien Chabbott and Orlando Bloom for tips on the latest mens hairstyle trend … shaggy!

or heartthrob Orlando Bloom for tips on how to do the shaggy men’s hairstyle.  Now for those with even loftier hair goals, look to Chris Hemsworth who does the polished ponytail quite nicely; however as Bruce Jenner recently stated on Keeping Up with The Kardashians, growing a pony can take upwards of 1.5 years!   Bruce should know, as he’s been sporting his own ponytail for some time now.

Take hair tips from Julien Chabbott who does the shaggy, messy-esque, tousled, weighted, and effortless hair style quite well.  Julien swears by Privé hair products, an all-organic, USA made product line by celebrity hair stylist, Laurent Dufourg, and his must-have is the Privé Styling Gel.

Below, get inspired by hairstyles on celebrity males and pick out your favorite for your guy…now, the question is, how will you persuade him to lose the shears for good?!  And hey — something to look forward to — your man will now have more dough in his wallet with saved trips to the salon and more hair bands on hand (yay for you)!

If you’re not already sold on why we love Haute Hippie dresses and jackets, read on for 8 reasons to put Haute Hippie on your favorite brands list for fall/winter 2014.

8 Reasons Haute Hippie Dresses & Jackets Are Amazing

All About The Vegan Diet That Victoria’s Secret Models Eat To Stay Slim!

We couldn’t wait to get to NYC for the spring 2015 New York Fashion Week shows, but there was another really cool thing we were anticipating…the opportunity to indulge in the vegan diet plan that so many of the Victoria’s Secret models are eating to stay slim.  The healthy food plan we’re talking about is Sakara Organic Meal Delivery!   While at New York Fashion Week, we were super excited to have been able to eat Sakara Organic Meal Delivery to keep us healthy and nourished all week long.  One of the hardest things to cope with during fashion week is lack of food (I know … weird, right?!), but more importantly getting healthy foods in our bodies since we are constantly cabbing off to meetings, fashion shows, cocktail parties, and more with no time in between to look for suitable meal options.  So, just like the Angels and many other supermodels, we relied on Sakara to deliver our healthy vegan diet meals straight to our doorstep! Amazing!!!

vegan diet - Sakara organic food delivery

Our diet at New York Fashion Week — Sakara Organic Meal Delivery

Sakara is currently only available on the east coast — from New York City to Boston and even the Hamptons.  Here’s how it works: you receive three meals for 1 day that are exceptionally tasty, plant-based, vegan, gluten free and organic.  The fun part about each meal you receive is that there is a focus on a superfood that you may not know much about or have never even heard of before.  Have you ever heard of a pluot? Yah, me neither…it’s like an apricot and very healthy!  Our breakfast scone was packed with pluots (scroll down for pics)!  Your meal tag tells you a little bit about the superfood so you can be more “earthy crunchy” next time you need to be!

So, which Victoria’s Secret models are indulging in this vegan diet that’s hand-delivered by Sakara?  Namely, Lily Aldridge and Erin Heatherton were both seen on Instagram partaking in Sakara cleanses during New York Fashion Week.  Additionally, models like Iman, Karolina Kurkova, Bobbi Brown and Lena Dunham have been on the Sakara plan!  Ladies, Maybe we should all take notes?  Scroll down to have a look at what 1 day of Sakara meals looks like!
