Fashion Dare: Wham Glam Thank-You Ma’am

December 14, 2009

holiday glam

 

All too often we move ourselves to the bottom of the list, especially during the holidays. This year, do yourself a favor and add some glamour to your style. The quickest and easiest way to go glam is to enlist the time-tested aid of classic beauty enhancers like red lipstick and luxe lashes.

Red Lipstick has a long history filled with possibilities of elevating one’s beauty status to iconic, so applying even a little bit is bound to make you feel like an old Hollywood starlet. Choose your hue carefully with The Coveted to make sure you don’t miss the mark and end up at the circus or in the red light district.

If eyes are the windows to your soul, make sure your drapes are just as gorgeous as the view. Falsies can add the length or thickness that your mama didn’t give you, but they can also be used just to add a little sparkle. Application can be tricky, get tips with Guide to Faux Lashes or Eyelash Trial.

While you are glam-ming it up, try wearing your costume jewelry to run errands, do your hair even if you aren’t leaving the house, sip water from champagne glasses or wear luscious lingerie under your skirt suit to the office… I DARE YOU!

My idea of glam is wearing lipstick over my lip balm HAHA :)

Just not red. I can’t find a shade that works and I’ve given up trying..

I do like the idea of false eyelashes but I am afraid they’ll look too fake.. I’ve been scared by some girls who over did it in the daytime and I don’t want to look like that

I very rarel wear red lipstick, but when I do I always get complimented. It’s my last resort glam trick that I use every now and again to make a real impact. That said, a lot of women wear red lipstick all the time as a sort of signature look – this looks great too. You almost don’t need anything else.

Great info and love your pics. Very nice.
