Fashion Tips and Tricks Every Girl Should Step 80 - 89

Fashion Tips and Tricks Every Girl Should Step 90-101

When it comes to fashion and style, it sometimes seems that everyone and their mother (literally!) have tried-and-true tips and tricks they absolutely swear by.

Trust us: With these gems, you’ll be well on your way to living your most stylish life.

100. Use white wine to remove red wine stains.

SAG Awards Makeup Came Together

The SAG Awards were a big night for Lupita Nyong’o — the up-and-coming star (and our style muse) took home honors for best female in a supporting role for her work in 12 Years a Slave, and looked stunning as ever while accepting the award. To complement her bold Gucci number, her makeup artist Nick Barose decided against the minimalist route for a bright, butterfly-inspired eye and a sheer pink lip. “There’s the rule about using brights on only your eye or lip, never both, but I don’t think that’s true because some people can carry strong color well, and Lupita is someone who can pull it off,” he told InStyle.com. “We go in there with an open mind, and she loves experimenting, so it’s a good collaboration. Besides, when you experiment, you can come up with a signature look!”

Barose took us behind the scenes to give us a sneak peek at how he and Nyong’O prepped for the big event, and no surprise to us, fun was had by everyone involved. “We were listening to BeyoncĂ©, Destiny’s Child, India.Arie, Rihanna — just tons of feel-good music to get us prepared,” he told us. “We were all singing along to the lyrics, and it was really fun.” Sounds like the perfect start to an eventful night!

Welcome to the latest edition of Ask CF! Every few weeks, we select a reader fashion question and answer it here on the site. Do you have a specific fashion question for us? Scroll to the bottom of this post to learn how to send it our way!


Ask CF Question

Dear CF,

Could you do a post on alternatives to skinny jeans? How do you style boot-cut, flared jeans, and boyfriend jeans? What shoes would you would wear with them and how can I look fashionable in them?

Sincerely,
Tired of Skinnies

Our Response

Dear Tired of Skinnies,

Over the past few years, skinny jeans have gotten so popular that it’s hard to remember a time before them. But – we promise – there was a time when other styles ruled the fashion scene.

Whether you don’t like the way skinny jeans fit or you just want to change up your wardrobe routine, below, I’ve created three looks for inspiration to help you do just that. For variety’s sake, each look includes a different style of jeans: There’s a bootcut pair, a wide leg pair, and a boyfriend pair.

When styling each outfit, I focused on creating visual balance. For example, in the wide leg look, I added a heeled boot and a long vest to create length to balance out the width of the pants. For the boyfriend pair, I added ladylike details to feminize the look. I also added some fun shoes that will stand out even though the pant legs cover them up a little.

Thank you again for your question. I hope you enjoy the looks and find them useful and inspirational!

Sincerely,

Jessica

Another popular pant style is the iconic wide leg “flare” cut. For this look, I mixed an eggplant-colored pair of flared pants with a horizontal striped sweater. To balance out the width of the wide leg jean, I added length to the look with a heeled boot and a vegan leather waist coast. Finish the look with a floral print infinity scarf and some sparkly earrings.

This final look incorporates a pair of trendy boyfriend jeans. To pull of this menswear-inspired style, I like to pair them with feminine pieces for balance.

To start, I chose some boyfriend jeans that actually boast a feminine vibe already, thanks to subtle rhinestone studs. And even though the jeans are oversized, a loose, baggy sweater can still work - just add glam accessories like glitter oxfords and bejeweled drop earrings. Complete the ensemble with oversized sunnies, an envelope clutch, and a sleek watch.

Do you have a fashion question? Send it our way!

Is there something in your closet that you can’t seem to figure out how to wear? Do you have an event coming up and need an outfit idea? Do you have a specific fashion conundrum you need help with?

Kulit terbakar (sunburn), iritasi, kulit kusam, kering, sampai kanker kulit, adalah beberapa contohnya. Namun, yang kita lakukan untuk mencegah dampak buruk sinar matahari pada kulit tampaknya belum maksimal.
"Masih banyak orang yang menganggap semua risiko ini bisa diatasi dengan cara menutupi seluruh tubuh," ungkap Vivi Tri Andari, Technical Management Manager PT Unilever Indonesia, Tbk, saat talkshow "SPF and the City" di Yogyakarta, beberapa waktu lalu.
Beberapa cara yang paling populer dilakukan untuk menghambat paparan sinar UV ke dalam kulit adalah dengan menggunakan payung, berlindung di bawah pohon, atau menggunakan baju panjang. Namun, "Cara ini tidak bisa menghambat 100 persen sinar UV yang masuk ke dalam kulit," jelasnya.

1. Payung
Sekilas payung memang bisa membantu untuk melindungi Anda dari panas matahari. Namun, ternyata berlindung di bawah payung masih bisa memantulkan sinar UV dari tanah atau trotoar yang terinjak. Tanah atau pasir ternyata bisa memantulkan 25 persen sinar UV ke kulit melalui bagian bawah yang tak terlindung. Sementara itu, trotoar mampu memantulkan sinar UV sebanyak 45 persen.

2. Air
Ketika berada di dalam air, jangan berpikir bahwa Anda terhindar dari paparan sinar UV. "Air masih dapat memantulkan sinar UV ke kulit sampai tiga persen," tambah Vivi. Ketika berenang, sinar UV masih bisa menembus sampai kedalaman 9 meter.

3. Di bawah pohon
Rimbunnya pepohonan mungkin dapat melindungi bagian kepala Anda dari cahaya matahari. Namun, sama seperti tanah dan trotoar, rumput ternyata juga bisa memantulkan sinar UV sebanyak 3 persen ke kulit.

4. Pakaian
Ketika akan keluar rumah di siang hari, biasanya kita akan melengkapi diri dengan menggunakan pakaian yang menutupi seluruh anggota badan seperti celana panjang atau baju lengan panjang. Berhasil? Belum tentu. "Baju akan menyerap sinar UV sampai 60 persen ke kulit, sehingga menutupi tubuh dengan pakaian rasanya kurang berhasil," tukasnya.

Untuk mengatasi efek sinar UV yang negatif, cara yang paling tepat adalah dengan menggunakan krim tabir surya di seluruh bagian tubuh. Setelah itu, lengkapi perlindungan kulit dengan cara-cara di atas agar kulit mendapatkan perlindungan ganda.

IFF menyasar Bali sebagai tempat pelaksanaan fashion show busana muslim rancangan desainer Indonesia, Malaysia, dan perancang asing yang bermukim di Bali.

Untuk kali pertama, Bali dipilih sebagai kota tujuan di Indonesia melanjuti IFF yang pernah berlangsung di Jakarta sebanyak empat kali, dan sekali di Bandung pada 2011.
"Tujuannya mengajak orang untuk lebih dahulu berminat pada busana muslim. Semua busana yang ditampilkan tertutup, prinsipnya menutup aurat. Namun memang tidak semua orang siap berbusana tertutup karena setiap orang punya selera yang berbeda. Beberapa busana juga masih terdapat kesalahan seperti kurang tertutup, tapi ini akan terus diperbaiki karena memang kita masih perlu terus belajar," jelas Raja Rezza, seusai fashion show IFF 2012 bertajuk Discover the Beauty of Modesty di W Retreat & Spa Seminyak, Bali, Sabtu 14/7/2012 lalu.
Terpilihnya Bali sebagai tempat pelaksanaan IFF 2012 bukan tanpa sebab. Selain cocok dengan konsep busana yang mengangkat tema resort wear, Bali juga menjadi tempat yang tepat untuk mengenalkan busana muslim pada masyarakat dunia. Melalui busana yang mencerminkan kelembutan, kehangatan, dan keberagaman gaya penampilan kaum muslim, diharapkan masyarakat dunia punya gambaran berbeda tentang muslim dan dunianya.
"Mayoritas yang datang juga bukan muslim. Ini pertanda baik masih ada ruang untuk memahami dunia muslim. Desainer non muslim yang terlibat juga mau memikirkan secara mendalam busana muslim yang cantik," jelasnya.

Bahan double crepe dipilih untuk koleksi busana kasual harian ini.
Farah mengaku belum pernah merancang busana muslim. Koleksi Farah pada umumnya lebih menyasar kalangan selebriti. Keterlibatannya di IFF 2012 merupakan tantangan baginya, menghasilkan koleksi yang menonjolkan kesederhanaan dengan sentuhan modern, sekaligus ingin memberikan pilihan berbusana muslim menggunakan kreasinya.
"Busana yang saya buat bisa dipakai sebagai busana muslim, namun juga bisa dipakai siapa saja dengan berbagai cara. Kalau ingin memakainya sebagai busana muslim, tambahkan kerudung, namun bisa juga dipakai untuk keseharian dengan berbagai gaya penampilan, bagi siapa saja," jelasnya.

Untuk membuat gaya riasan mata ini, mulailah menarik gariseyeliner cair dari bagian tengah bulu mata Anda. Buatlah titik-titik  dari tengah mata menuju ke sudut luar mata. "Titik-titik ini harus dibuat serapat mungkin sehingga terlihat seperti garis," ungkap Pearl. Ketika membuat garis, posisi tangan Anda harus tetap stabil agar garis tidak meleset dan merusak tampilan. Dengan membuat titik-titik ini, Anda tak perlu menjaga tangan Anda dalam posisi yang sama untuk beberapa lama dan hasilnya lebih rata.
