A Winter Wonderland


It's probably not going to be a white Christmas here in Houston Texas but that doesn't mean you can't ice it out. The look of this holiday season is silver and denim. Denim and ice. And of course, white fur! What that means is, this look will work for you at the Christmas party.

Get totally "Glammed Up" with the metallic "Cool Sensation" eye-shadow Quad and  bold red lip. This festive makeup looks good on everybody. You can purchase the "Winter Wonderland" Glamour Set for $48. It will include:

  • Cool Sensation eye-shadow Quad
  • Black eye-liner pencil

A VERY SPECIAL CHRISTMAS EVE:

If you have that special someone in your life, make this Christmas Eve one to remember. After you put the kids to bed...pull out a tray of santa's cookies, or whatever snack you like and "Oprah's Favorite Christmas Cocktail."


This sweet and spicy drink is very classy and made with Oprah Chai, her middle eastern spice tea. You can purchase Oprah Chai at the Galleria Mall or Memorial City Mall. It's sold at TEAVANA. I personally had never gone to Teavana, let alone buy anything from there until I bought her tea. It's delicious and warm: I'm pretty sure you can get the rum and vodka from Specs.

OPRAH'S FAVORITE CHRISTMAS COCKTAIL
  •  8 cups of boiling water
  • 1/4 cup Oprah Chai tea leaves
  • 1/2 cup Captain Morgan Original spiced rum
  • 1/2 cup Smirnoff vanilla flavored vodka
  • 2 cups condensed milk
DIRECTIONS:

  1. Bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Place tea leaves and boiling water. Turn down and let steep for 10 minutes.
  2. Pour tea into a large pot. Use a metal strainer to catch the loose tea leaves. 
  3. Stir in rum and vodka.
  4. Let simmer and cook on very low for 15 minutes.
  5. Add condensed milk and serve warm!

Fall Lipstick Colors


I'm still waiting for fall weather...and waiting.  Because when the weather cools down, colors heat up. Nothing says fall like toasty warm browns, simmering metallics and earth tone colors. Anything that matches the changing colors of the leaves. 

This fall, the hottest lipstick color is Aularale's Matte Chocolate! It's a beautiful ethnic nude and we thank  Kylie Jenner for showing us how to wear brown lipstick. The model in the picture is wearing Aularale's MATTE CHOCOLATE!

Please visit http://www.blackstylists.com/aularale1231 to pre-order a tube of Matte Chocolate Today! The price is $ 16.00.




Don't for get to decorate your porch this fall to celebrate seasons changing. You can buy bales of hay at Wal-Mart. You can also find decorations at Michael's craft store and the Dollar Tree.

It's Park Time!


Houston can be pretty hott during the summer, but the fall is fabulous! I'm thinking it's time to barbecue, have a picnic or take that trail ride. The park is a pretty place hang out..however...

That's not the kind of park I'm talking about! This fall, it's time to get your IVY PARK gear. The new Trill clothing line from Houston's finest, Beyonce Carter! This is what preppy looks like coming from Houston...and guess what! WE LOVE IT! 

You can buy Ivy Park at Nordstroms at the Galleria Mall on Westheimer. You can catch the number 82 bus from Milam and Pierce near the downtown transit center to get to the mall. Get with a couple of your girlfriends, go to the mall then crash a TSU back to school party...

Ghetto Red Hott

Summer nights should be hot and fun. Turn up the heat with Rihanna's summer classic Wild Thoughts featuring DJ Khalid and Bryson Tiller. Rihanna shows us how to do it in the streets of Little Haiti Miami in the video. 

Our favorite scenes are of her having an "I'm feeling myself" moment in a charming southern ghetto bedroom. Doing what all girls secretly do before they go out. Dance super sexy in the mirror. 

The Look: She's wearing a turquoise sheer peasant dress by Alberta Ferretti. Her gladiator sandals by Monolo Blahnik are lined with mystic jewels. 

She faces the mirror on the dresser and her makeup is incredible! Get the exact same look for only $50. 
In this set, you will get:

Coral Reef Eye Shadow Quad

Turquoise Eye Liner

Nail Polish in French White (to stay consistent with Rihanna's pedicure in the video)

Lipstick in Matt Strawberry or Matt Burgundy

Mustard and Pink

The summer heat in Texas was something I definitely had to get use to. This kind of weather makes me think of sizzling style and electrifying colors. Pink is always hot. However, this summer, instead of matching pink with black and white, try mustard yellow. The colors just vibrate next to each other. Think nails, heels and accessories.

Fashion designer Lilly Pulitzer said, "Anything is possible with sunshine and pink." I think that it's possible to have a dream summer with yellow flip/flops and nails painted with Aularale's Autumn Rose. And definitely keep your feet flip/flop smooth with Aularale's Therapeutic Foot Cream! 
This summer: Take that trip with your best girlfriends to Galveston!
