Steal This Style: Oscar Worthy Eyebrows for your Wedding

Brows


Ever since high school I've been plucking, waxing and threading my brows--- anything to avoid a unibrow or out-of-place hair. So, when I finally decided to get my eyebrows shaped to frame my face (and yes, it really makes a difference) I was told that I had to let the plucked hairs grow in.

Here's the problem: I've been plucking for so long that my brows have stopped growing in.

And now, the 3-step solution:

Step 1: Grow Back Brows
The latest lash-growing products will work on over-plucked brows too! I love LashFood Natural Eyelash Conditioner. It's got natural, safe ingredients.

Step 2: Snag a Shaping Kit
Try Anastasia Beverly Hills 7 Element All in One Brow Kit which has all the essentials for creating the perfect look---which I found out, is all about arch.

Step 3: Look like a Celebrity
Okay, not really a step, but Penelope Cruz and Jennifer Lopez are definitely worthy of a shout out!

Getting Gorgeous: Wedding Manicure Colors You'll Love

filed under: Beauty
Nailpolish
The one must-do bridal duty is to keep your nails looking amazing (how else will your friends admire your bling?). I'm loving these aisle-perfect polishes from Jessica Cosmetics. The names simply scream "I'm getting married."

Wouldn't you wear a polish called "kiss the bride" or "honeymoon hideaway"

What's Hot Now: Alice in Wonderland Wedding Accessories

Alice2
I'm incredibly excited to see Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland (I've been hooked on his movies since Edward Scissorhands)! And, in honor of opening weekend (March 5th) I've decided to pull together some of my favorite Wonderland- and wedding-worthy finds.

Clockwise from top left

Edible Favors These "Eat Me"Chocolate Bars won't make your guests grow or shrink, but there's still nothing sweeter than a sugary send-off. Or, snag some "Drink Me" Plastic Cups for your favor.

Grooms Attire Want to be a Mad Hatter host? Skip the top hat and go for the Polka Dot Tie instead.

Groomsmen Gift Giving the guys in your party this silver plated pocket-watch is about the only way to guarantee they'll show up to the ceremony on time.

Bridesmaid Gift Swarovski and Disney have paired up to make these adorable Alice in Wonderland jewels. This Key Pendant is magical and mysterious, but still modern and completely wearable.

Bridal Headpiece Channel your inner Alice with this beautiful floppy-bow headband

Wedding Clutch Now here's a bag the Queen of Hearts would approve of. Why "paint the roses red" when you can have this crystal-studded clutch

Registry Item Have your own tea party with this stackable espresso set.

Favor Idea Wrap these printed Alice in Wonderland Coasters with a blue ribbon for the ultimate themed take-away.

What's Hot Now: The Wedding Workout You Wear

filed under: Accessories, Fashion
Shatobu

So, I know these look just like any other control-top, tummy-tucking suit (and they'll do that), but the ShāToBu Shaper is actually more of an excuse to skip the gym.

If you hate running "laps" on a treadmill (like me) then you'll either have to diet (ugh) or find some other way to burn calories. Well, here it is: The built-in resistance bands---yep, the very same ones you'd find in the gym---make your legs and butt work just a bit harder when you're walking home from work or heading to a party.

Gym-goer or not...would you try them?

Lipsticklove Here's the deal--- even if you ignore the fact that this Estee Lauder Hydra Lustre Lipstick is super hydrating (which it is) and forget that the Kissable Lip Gloss goes on super smooth (which it does), you can't overlook the adorable LOVE logo, right?

I think it's the perfect way to make your wedding day makeup feel extra special.
What do you think?
