Kristen Stewart at the KCAs 2013: The Messy Fishtail

Hey everyone! I know it's been a long time since this year's KCA, and since all that time I've been admiring Kristen's whole look. From the cool playsuit to the amazing hair, I was blown. It just leaves an impression of youth and freedom combined with great fashion taste. Oh, and the purple smokey eyes, that the icing on the cake! I just loved it! Therefore I couldn't resist to post a great and easy hair tutorial that I've found here (click there to get more info on the products used) and plus, a makeup tutorial for her look!


Hair magician ADIR ABERGEL hooked the 22-year-old up for the night by styling her long auburn tresses in quite possibly the coolest fishtail braid I’ve ever seen. Using the Fekkai products he created this, undone, fresh and simple to recreate hairstyle. So, here is the hair tutorial (just wait a few seconds and the video will appear itself).

AND NOW, THE MAKEUP...


Kristen posed for the KCA cameras giving them a smouldering ultra-violet stare courtesy of her smoky deep purple eyes. Chanel Celebrity Makeup Artist JILLIAN DEMPSEY was inspired by both her eye color and the shade of her outfit.

Before starting, Jillian had to start with a clean palette.
“I prepped her skin with CHANEL Hydra Beauty Sèrum followed by CHANEL Sublimage Essential Regenerating Fluid and then dabbed a little CHANEL Sublimage La Crème Yeux under her eyes.

I used a combination of CHANEL Vitalumière Aqua Ultra-Light Skin Perfecting Sunscreen Makeup Broad Spectrum SPF 15 on Kristen’s face and neck and CHANEL Correcteur Perfection Long Lasting Concealer with soft focus on pigments to conceal and event out her complexion.

On the apples of her cheeks, I lightly dusted CHANEL Powder Blush in Rose Initial. I then did a series of highlights on her upper cheekbones and bridge of her nose with CHANEL Exclusive Creation Poudre Signèe De Chanel Illuminating Powder.”

Now, for the eyes!
“The eyes were the cornerstone of this look. I chose CHANEL LES 4 OMBRES Quadra Eyeshadow in Vanitès and relied on the deep purple shade to add depth to Kristen’s eyes. I blended and layered metallic accents on her lids to intensify the purple shades using CHANEL Illusion D’Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow in Mirifique. To continue the purple iridescence theme, I traced underneath her lower lashes with CHANEL Precision Eye Definer in Violet Smoke.

I also used CHANEL Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long Lasting Eyeliner in Black Shimmer on her upper lash line for extra definition.
I curled the lashes and added two coats of Le Volume de Chanel Mascara in Noir. I added a few individual lashes to finish.”

And for the perfectly pale pout?
Jillian used CHANEL Rouge Coco Shine Hydrating Sheer Lipshine in Candeur on her lips “for a natural, peachy nude hue.”

Red carpet: Kristen Stewart looks at the 'Breaking Dawn Part 2' premieres

Hey guys! I've been following the events that have been happening in the past few weeks and one of them in the wold premiere of the last epic ending of 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2'. I haven't watched it still, but I will soon. Untill that, here's the total roundup from all of the looks that Kristen wore at the premieres in L.A, London, Madrid and Berlin.


First, there's the picutre from the L.A. premiere and she looked so divine. With that transparent nude lace that creates that certan look,  and with the makeup she was so elegant that i can't even. But, enought about that.

The second pic is a very bold look. I liked that she goes a little bold in fashion. Anyway that nice transparent black laced overall is very nice. Feminine. I liked it!

Okay, so the next dress is from the Madrid premiere and is much less elegant than the other dresses. But that is a very flirty, summer dress in the color - fluorescent yellow, and we can's forget the heels. They are like a big finishing touch to the look and breaking all the yellow.

At the end there's the beautiful gold dress (wich is my favorite) at the Berlin premiere. I just love the way the dress looks on her, and the beautiful gold makeup, made her look fawless.  But which one of these is your favorite?

Red Carpet: MTV EMA 2012

Hey! I haven't posted for a while... sorry for that. But, as you already know, something really amazing is happening right now as I'm writing this post. Yeah, that's right - the 2012 MTV European Awards! Follow everything live now right here! And stay tuned with everything by going to tv.mtvema.com! Heidi Klum, I have to say looks so beautiful! I'm so excited! So here are my top 4 red carpet looks from this year's EMA:

The first look is from the gorgeous Taylor Swift, who looked absolutely enchanting in this haute couture J. Mendel dress. Her whole look was so elegant and feminine, just the words to describe her personality. So, I think she deserved the Best Look award, because she really looked  gorgeous. Nice work Taylor!

Next, there's the uprising star Rita Ora. She looked so different from all the girls on the red carpet in this Marchesa dress. And I really liked it, so cute and has elegance. Gorgeous combination! Rita really did her homework! 

Also another uprising star, the inevitable Lana Del Rey. She had so much class in that simple blue silk dress. Absolutely divine and simple. Very good for your first EMAs!

 And last, but not the least, the super mom Alicia Keys. Also keeping it simple in this beautiful Stella McCartney dress. Nice accessories and makeup, and all in all a great combination! Don't forget her fire preformance at the EMAs, she really was the girl on fire! 


Who was your favorite?

Inspiration/ Ebba Zingmark

Okay, first I probably have to write a huge alpology letter to all of my folowers who have waited this long for a post. I'm really sorry, but, school started and I've been busy (sorry, I always say that, but It's true). There's a lack of new tutorials so when I find one new I promise, I will post it right away. Untill then I think I should make this blog a little more personal, and post things like my new fashion inspirations. There are some amazing people all around the wold! And this girl is just the  beggining. But, these kinds of posts won't be posted like, all the time, just once a month (maybe). Take a look at these gorgeous girl and her amazing & original fashion sense:

EBBA ZINGMARK 
She's a 16 year old girl from a little town in northern Sweden. And besides being a student she's also working as a fashion blogger at the swedish fashion-site modette.se. Visit it here. I love her blog because she is fearless when it comes to showing her style and she shows her complete personality throught her blog. Every post is well thought and I love to read them. She always creates original wearable combinations that I have never thought it could be put together! She is really talented!


“At most I get my inspiration from my friends and people around me, and because the styles of the persons who inspires me is very varieted my own style gets very mixed. I love looking a little bit fairytale, but still in an edgy way” – Ebba

Get The Look: Taylor Swift

Hey everyone! Lately I've been thinking about adding something new and fresh to my blog, like a new column. Or something like that. And in the same time share with you my celebrity style icons and their amazing closet. So whenever I feel like writing, I can always turn to a little research and celebrities.
First on my list is the amazing Taylor Swift. I will be honest, I rescently became a fan of hers, well more a fan of her style. Maybe because of her new hairstyle. Those bangs really gave her a little more sophisticated look. And It suits her perfectly. And almost everything she wears is perfect for everyday wear.

On the right side you can see a very simple but chic combination of a basic white shirt, and black pants with very small dots on it. I also like the cute cardigan. It's risky to wear a cardigan with such a formal look, but the awesome Ray-Bans gave it a completely different outlook. 

bag: LAUREN MERKIN STEVIE SATCHEL
On the left side you can see a very navy combination with red jeans. Again with the Ray-Bans, but I just love it. This is a perfect everyday style that suits everyone, and it's very easy to achieve. 

shirt: DIZZY STRIPE HENLEY SHIRT
jeans: SUD EXPRES JEAN SLIM ORANGE (sold out)
bag: LAUREN MERKIN STEVIE SATCHEL

When I see this look it reminds me of London. I don't know why, honestly. However I really seem to like it even thought I'm not a big fan of wearing yellow or that navy blue as a color. But, Taylor did a great job there! 
sweater: RALPH LAUREN
bag: FENDI

Sooo this is the look I definitely love the most. It's a stylish and casual. Red lipstick looks great with the whole combination, and Ray-Bans also. It's really Manhattan, without much effort. The vintage sunglasses in a cat eye shape gives it just enough glam and fills the look. Not much, but beautiful.  

shorts: DR. DENIM
sunglasses: ELIZABETH AND JAMES
bag: COACH

Taylor is promoting her new single and new album 'Red' that's coming out this October and I can't be more excited! This is another chic & basic look styled with a red lipstick and Ray-Bans. Vintage, and always IN, Taylor keeps surprising people with her own sense of style. She is original, and that's what I love about her. 
shirt: NASTY GAL
shorts: FOREVER 21
shoes: SORVAGUR

New In: Spring Sweater & DIY Shorts

Hey everyone! I just came back from the town, well more shopping. I was so excited to show you my new soft & a little lacy spring grey sweater. I have loved these kinds of sweaters since I knew for myself. They are very useful. If, let's say spring isn't very warm like expected, or when those summer nights get a little chilly.

A few days ago, I used some old jeans to make this cool shorts that you see. It took me less than 5 min to make it . And I know that mostly all of you know the simple steps for turning some old jeans into a shorts, but still, if I already photographed it, why not post it?


As you can see, It's really fluffy & soft. And the dark grey color looks great. It can be worn with a tank underneath, just because it has those little dimples all over it. But it's also very warm, and made of wool. It's just a casual look that i love. 

And here's the simple quick DIY project. Using a pen, mark the length of your new shorts. Note: mark it to be a little longer that you want just so you could fold the ends. Cut the jeans by following the line. After that fold the ends - see picture 3. Sew it on the sides so it won't fold back. To secure everything, iron the ends, from the front side and back side. Well that's it, have you made any DIY shorts recently?

MTV 2012 Movie Awards - The Best Dressed

Hey everyone! I'm sure that the most of you followed this year's MTV Movie Awards! A night to remember! The show was absolutely amazing. Funny host Russel Brand entertained the audience, and the big ones - Twilight & Hunger Games picked up the grand awards. And of course, there was the red carpet. A galaxy of stars were shining on it and showing their fashion sense. Everyone were dashing, but who was the fairest of them all?


The beautiful Emma Stone just lightened up the stage when she came up to get her award. She just looked stunning with black and ivory Martin Grant dress with nude heels.


All I can say it's WOW! Kristen Stewart looked dazzling and rocks the metallic multicolored look. The designer of the dress is Guishem and she made a excellent combination with black Louboutin shoes.


Then there is Kristen's co-star at the new movie hit - The Snow White & The Huntsman. Charzline was stunning in this red Lanvin dress with silver shoes. 


And of course there is Emma Watson, the star of the Harry Potter saga. She went bold in this fierce edgy Brood dress. Just lovely!


Mila Kunis in a dress by Fendi and Jimmy Choo shoes! 


I also liked what Victoria Justice wore. It's a beautiful dress by Erin Fetherston with amazing Swarovski jewels and Michael Kors heels.
Who do you think was the fairest of them all?

Trend: Nude Color

Oh my! So many time has passed since the last trend post. I almost forgot about it. And there are new fashion trends where ever I turn around! I'm very sure that the most of you already heard about the nude color. It goes with everything, but really everything. What I like the most, are the nude tops, blouses ( nude blouses are the must have this season! Be sure to get one! ) or dresses. The most beautiful combinations with nude palette are black, pink, blue... Be sure to have matching shoes. You always need to have something matching with nude. Also the haute couture runway can't got without this color ( the most common pieces are those with nude colored feathers and sparkles ). At the end there is not much to say, the color is just perfect & very simple to combine. Tell me about your nude palette pieces from your closet here! ( <-- click! ). See you next time!

From My Closet: The Back Zip Tee

Hey guys! You may remember that on one post, I wrote: "An awesome fashion post upcoming...", so.. HERE IT IS! I need to apologize in advance for the bad pictures. The light was very low. But the tee is very beautiful and awesome! I was gifted this for my birthday a while back from one of my friends. And for the record, It can't really unzip. I just fell in love with the color and the combination of baby & neon pink. And the texture is great and soft, which I like the most about it. That is how it became my absolute go-to tee.

I'm wearing:
THE ZIP TEE: BERSHKA
GREY JEANS: STRADIVARIUS 


Now, I'm not a big fan of neon colors, but honestly, I was surprised how much they can look good. And if I forgot to say, NEON is a big hit this season ( well, more precisely - dresses ). And the color is very flattering, because you can wear it with everything. But I think the grey & pink combination is the winner! Now, normally I get so addicted on the new things in my closet, that the last time I went shopping, I've bought a beautiful baby pink spring sweater! To cut the story short, I would whole-heartedly recommend this beautiful tee and color! Absolutely love it!

Trend: Pastel Colors/Spring Perfect

Who would thought that soft pastel would be IN this spring?! Especially mint green and apricot. Which is my favorite color :) Those are very nice soft colors and they look really good with white ( such as white or apricot lace ) or some else soft colors. Or if you like, you can always make a bold combination with black or brighter colors, and you can use all kinds of geometric and floral prints! And yes, they are IN too! All in all, you just need these   colors in your closet. And I have two reasons: First - they are this seasons must have ; Second - they stand out the femininity in every girl. Try it, ad tell me what you think!
