Vibrant Hair Color

Back in the days of Hollywood movie stars - and way before Kim Kardashian and her 40 reality shows existed - women wore "natural" hair colors - blonde, brunette, redhead and so on. Today, celebrities and us normal people have been experimenting with lots of bright colors and fun trends - two toned hair extensions, vibrant hair dye and a kick ass attitude to pull it all off. Here are some of my favorites - some are current, some a few years old. And of course, some of my not so favorites...enjoy!




Oh how I love Hayley!
She's had this killer bright red hair color for years, but pulls it off so well!




Peaches and her two-toned extensions
It looks like something is growing out of her hair...like seaweed.
Great hair cut though besides that




Pink woohoo!
Another celebrity that has had mostly the same hair color for a few years,
but I don't know anyone else that could remotely pull off this look like she can




Possibly my favorite Rihanna hair color of all time!
Not crazy about the hair cut here, but the color is so much fun




Nicki's rainbow bright hair is...interesting.
Maybe for Halloween, I don't see this one catching on




Remember this one? Gaga's canary yellow hair
That'll get your attention huh?






I love Kelly Osbourne, like a lot!
And I love this pale purple hair color for her. Almost a grey-purple.
Amazing!




Ha! Another take on two toned hair with a giant telephone on her head




Ohhh how I long for the Dirrrty days!
You would expect me to hate this, but I actually loved it at the time haha




Avril has been doing the blonde/pink hair for a while
and I always thought it looked cute on her!




Britney's I Wanna Go video
As soon as I saw her hair it reminded me of Avril's
I liked it on her in the video, but it's just not "her"




With this hair, the eye makeup and the lips, it's just a fun/playful look.








A few bad ones just for fun...


Oh Cher...




Remember these days? That is a LOT of hair...




I love mohawks a lot, just not this particular one




I'm sorry but this is just miserable. WHYYYYY




Who's your favorite? Have you experimented with a bold hair color?












Beauty Quote of the Day



"Don't wear too much make-up. Less really is more. I think the most beautiful people are those who look like they're not really wearing any. Overall though, just have fun with it and experiment. Kate Bosworth and Diane Kruger always have beautiful hair and make-up." - Emma Watson




August 2011 Magazine Covers - The Best & Worst

It's that time again! I feel like I just did all of the July covers (I was a bit behind) but here are some of the August 2011 magazine covers! Hope you enjoy...


Tilda Swinton for W Magazine
Oh.My.God.Love.
Tilda is known for being "outside the box" when it comes to fashion/beauty,
but I love this look! Very David Bowie-esque which is always a good thing.


Claudia Shiffer for Vogue Germany
This cover is so gorgeous! I wish I could pull off an eye mask like this on the regular.
Just show up at work like - hey guys, like my eye mask? I wish.



Model (?) for Shape
Who is this? If it's a model, that's interesting considering celebrities have
seemingly taken over magazine covers as of late.


SJP for Vogue
Hmmm I find it funny that it's the "age" issue, yet SJP is photoshopped to hell.
Mixed messages for sure.



Olivia Wilde for Marie Claire
Oh this is just lovely. She is so gorgeous, and just kills it in this photo.
I love the minimal makeup, it lets her beauty speak for itself.
Love the red on her, and the side swept bangs are great. Well done!


Mila and Justin for Elle
Not so sure about this one guys. Mila rules, but she doesn't look great here.
Looks like her hair needs a serious comb through it...
Justin is rocking a seriously weird expression on his face too


Kim Kardashian for Cosmo
Again??? Think Cosmo needs to get some new cover girls in their rotation
She looks good, even though I kinda hate the dress

Katie Holmes for In Style
Wow! This is a pleasant surprise. Mrs. Tom Cruise is looking awesome
on the this cover! I like the dress, natural but pretty makeup, hair is flowy and pretty.


Jessica Alba for Allure
Eh. Two months in a row, Allure has underwhelmed me with their cover.
I wanted a crazy, creative, high-drama makeup cover!
Better luck next month I guess...


Heidi Klum for Glamour
Cute! I feel like she always looks great though. She is a model after all =)


Anne Hathaway for Bazaar
Don't hate it but don't love it either.
She has such a pretty smile, that would have made this cover better!


Michelle Williams for Glamour Germany
I love this! Colorful, fun, a little weird!
The lashes and lips are perfect for her, brava.


Emma Stone for Vanity Fair
God I love her. But her red lips are STARING at me. And not in a good way.
Love her hair, the bathing suit, the fact that she isn't overly bronzed.
But the lips. Why so harsh? Wahhhh


Drew Barrymore for Nylon
Oh. Wow.
I get Nylon's urge to be "unique" but this is just a freakin mess.


Miranda Kerr for Vogue Australia
Gorge! What a pretty dress, and pretty girl!
Ms. Orlando Bloom kills it on this cover


Christina Hendricks for Lucky
Whoa, curves! I think she looks great!
On the red carpet she usually has a bold color on
so this is a nice change up, especially with her hair color.


What's your favorite August cover?! Share!



Madonna's Material Girl Line Adds Beauty Products!

Fun glosses

Polish

Fragrance


Love Kelly!

Madonna's Material Girl line of clothing has been doing pretty well. So what better way to make it more profitable than to add beauty products?!

I'm impressed with the glosses and especially the nail polishes - how cute! I think tween/teen girls will go wild for this stuff. I saw this on cocoperez.com and wanted to share with you guys.

The famous mother/daughter team will launch the beauty products August 15th.


Invasion of (More) Celeb Fragrances

Yes, the never-ending parade of celebrity fragrances is still in full force.
Here are the latest batch from 2011:



The latest perfume by Gwen Stefani for her Harajuku Lovers line.



I like this one only because it's a mermaid!



Taylor Swift's Wonderstruck


Not a fan of her music, but it is said that it will take two years to roll out this


perfume to people all over the world! I'm sure it will be profitable...





Christina Aguilera's Secret Potion


I like the idea of the ad, but they seriously killed her in photoshop.


Any interest in these 3 guys?





Courteney Cox - Beauty Blogger


I kinda LOVE this idea. I just read on People.com that Courteney Cox will be writing beauty blog posts on xoJane.com! Being a long time Friends fan, I would actually like to read her advice. Botox or not, I think she looks fabulous!

Click here for her first blog post on hair dye and her favorite makeup:



Gaga vs. Katy...Copycat?

Lady Gaga as a mermaid for Edge of Glory


Katy Perry posted this photo of herself on Twitter of her as a mermaid

Many people are all bent out of shape because Katy Perry "copied" Lady Gaga's mermaid idea for their music videos. Last time I checked, Gaga didn't invent mermaids, so I don't quite get the outrage. I've always loved mermaids and think they both look fierce!

What do you guys think?


Beauty Quote of the Day




“It's all or nothing with my makeup. If I get dressed up, I'll go to an extreme. I'll wear foundation, bright blue or bright red lipstick with one of my weird purple wigs.” - Angelina Jolie


Oh how the times have changed, huh? =)

Katy Perry's New Rolling Stone Cover

OH.MY.GOD. Seriously cracked up when I saw her bra. Hilarious.
Love the pink lip they put on her too.
