Jeans That Flatter Your Figure

Jeans That Flatter Your Figure













Jeans are a basic and essential part of the average man or woman's wardrobe. However, regardless of size, not every man or woman shares the same body type. With a wide range of styles and cuts available, often finding popular pants that are most flattering to your shape can be a daunting task. Not to mention that trying on literally dozens of pairs of jeans during a shopping outing can quickly frustrate and exhaust even the most enthusiastic shopper! So how do you narrow down your search before you head for the dressing room? Here are a few tips to consider: 


1. Try a straight leg or boot-cut style first. As opposed to the tapered style which makes your hips and rear look wider, a straight or boot-cut leg is very slimming and gives the perception of added height. If you have generous hips, beware of the boot-cut that narrows too much at the knee. This style can exaggerate the width of your hips
2. Look for styles that are medium to low rise. While the ultra-low waist jeans should be left to the teenagers, the average person isn't restricted to wearing those 'mummy' pants. Avoid waistlines that come all the way up to the naval as these can make your lower half look pear-shaped.
Bigger is better, at least when it comes to pockets. Small pockets make your backside look bigger! Also, darker washes are more slimming and figure-flattering. Plus, with the right accessories, a darker pair of pants can be dressy or casual.
 4. A little stretch goes a long way. Denim with a bit of Lycra or spandex is not always a bad thing. The stretch fabric will hug your curves in the right places and be more comfortable too, since it moves with your body instead of being stiff and pulling tight.

 With these tips in mind, you are ready to grab a handful of denim and head to the dressing room! Remember that you should always target the 'problem area' of your body first -- whether it's your hips, thighs, or tummy. Once you find the right fit there, finding the perfect pair of jeans should be a breeze!

Rachel Bilson looked very sweet in Chanel Haute Couture at the premiere of her original film series inspired by Magnum Ice Cream at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City on April 21.

The brunette babe was joined by Karl Lagerfeld, who not only designed her dress, but also directed the films.

The pink silk embroidered strapless frock from the spring 2011 runway was paired with black Christian Louboutin pumps and a Chanel clutch in the shape of a seashell.
The 29-year-old actress' winged out liner was drawn on with lust-worthy precision and her ombre strands were pulled up into a sophisticated updo with face-framing strands.

Meanwhile, the highlights from the Tribeca Film Festival aren't just in the flicks, but the stylish appearances on the red carpet and around town.

Bright lipstick is a must for the spring or the summer.My favourite bright pink lipstick is from Bourjois, Docteur Glamour Lipstick - 16 Lilas Ausculte. It is a really pretty color, and there is a little purple in it. I just love it. 

I think this hot pink lipstick looks great on mostly everybody, so you should definitely get one. And it is a more cheerful pop of color on the lips than red.

Lauren Hutton flashed that legendary gap-toothed grin at the Chanel artists dinner on April 25 in NYC.

The 67-year-old model was on hand for the Tribeca Film Festival event clad in an ultra stylish look: a red patterned blazer matched with a basic white t-shirt and navy pencil skirt. Black flats completed the casually classic ensemble.

Hutton -- who recently took a turn down Tom Ford's runway -- looked radiant with little makeup and tousled blonde waves.
The one-time "Project Runway" host walked the red carpet alongside other blonde leading ladies like Chloƫ Sevigny and Naomi Watts. She was also snapped while sharing a drink with Robert De Niro and Julian Schnabel during the evening.

Meanwhile, check out the over-60 and stunning star we spotted in an equally great ensemble.

Joy Bryant was cowgirl chic at an event hosted by Coach to benefit the Children's Defense Fund on April 20 in Santa Monica, California.

The 34-year-old donned a yellow prairie dress with a Levi's denim jacket. We love how she styled the frock with a brown leather belt and matching cowboy boots. Coach brown leather purse with gold hardware and door knocker earrings balanced out her boho look.

Bryant was in stylish company -- the model was joined by mommy-to-be Selma Blair, "Mad Men"'s Christina Hendricks -- who chose a sleek jumpsuit for the evening, and Scarlett Johansson who looked red hot in

Permanent Hair Removal

Permanent Hair Removal
Permanent Hair Removal




What could be better than foregoing the razor or the hot wax, but still having silky smooth skin? No regrowth, no stubble and no oops, I forgot to shave! moments at the beach. Sounds good, doesn't it? Well, advances in permanent hair removal mean that the future is now you can have hair effectively and permanently removed!

There are two popular methods for permanent hair removal. Each method has its benefits, and one may be more suitable for you than the other.


Laser hair removal is a highly effective means of removing hair. Because of the way the laser is used, it can be tuned to each individual's skin type and tone, so the outcome is always the ideal one from person to person. This type of permanent hair removal is popular because of the rapidity of the treatment and the large area of hair that can be covered in each session. Where other treatments may need to be performed over a number of years, laser treatment tends to be done in several sessions over a few months, after which time the hair removal is said to be complete. Aside from slight, temporary patchiness in the skin, there is little risk in the procedure itself. The safety of the patient is fairly well assured, especially as laser hair removal is performed by a skilled medical practitioner. Patients are advised to stay out of the sun in the weeks before and after their treatment, as sun damage can cause the hair removal to be undone, but these are really the only precautions that need to be taken. Laser hair removal is available to most people interested in permanent hair removal. Its adaptability makes it suitable for almost all skin types, although at this stage it can not be used for removing very fair or white hair. Many people are interested in whether or not this type of permanent hair removal treatment is painful, as you would expect a laser entering your skin to be! Most patients feel nothing but a slight burning sensation, akin to being flicked with an elastic band, and do not require any kind of anesthesia. In the days immediately following the treatment, the skin may feel slightly sunburned. As far as permanent hair removal goes, laser treatment is highly effective and comparatively affordable. 
Electrolysis is a bit of a buzz word in the beauty industry. Many people hear about it and talk about it, without really knowing what it means. This method of permanent hair removal requires a great amount of skill to be performed correctly, but if it is, the results are excellent. Hair is removed using a very fine metal probe, which is inserted into the hair follicle, and does not penetrate the skin. Electricity is passed through the probe, which in turn damages the areas that generate and grow hair. Ta-da! The part of your epidermis that creates hair can do it no longer, allowing for permanent hair removal. Electrolysis has been performed at various levels for more than a century. It is proven in its effectiveness and studies suggest that as many as 93 per cent of patients are likely to experience excellent results. Although it is not as efficient as laser hair removal, it often requires less sessions. However, permanent hair removal of this kind can be expensive, and the nature of the procedure is that it is time consuming and not always useful for thick or plentiful hair. It is generally only used in small areas like the eyebrows or upper lip. These two methods are both highly effective for permanent hair removal. The choice of one procedure over the other should be based on several fairly straightforward factors: 

There are do it yourself appliances available for permanent hair removal, but these usually involve plucking or tweezing hair. This is fairly ineffective and hair usually grows back within 6 weeks. It also increases the risk of ingrown hairs and infected or swollen pores, which are very unsightly!

Permanent hair removal is excellent for ensuring that your skin always feels soft and smooth. As long as you make sure you choose the right option for you and seek the advice of a good medical practitioner, you should be happily throwing away your razors in no time!
