Random Fashion Truths

Posted 10/09/2009 by Allison in Beauty, Fashion \ 1 comment

I'm not exactly sure when my love for fashion started. My mom said that when I was six I asked her why dad always took me shopping at Bloomingdale's and Nordstrom's and she just took me to TJ Maxx. I tend to lean more toward the trendy side of fashion for myself; I like to change my look often, so the trendy things I bargain hunt for. I have staples like my David Kahn jeans and Ugg boots that I don't mind paying more for, but in general, I am an "on-sale" kind of girl.

I usually have some obsession for the week that turns on my creative juices and leads to great words of fashion wisdom.  But, this week….I’ve got nothin’.  The only thing that this week has taught me is that sometimes oldies really are the goodies.  Maybe this was the God of Fashion’s week to reconfirm a few truths in my life.    Honestly, here are my “random fashion truths for the week”

1.)  Preparation H is a great eye de-puffer and it’s okay to admit it.  If Jennifer Aniston does, it. then it should be good enough for us.  Right?

2.)  Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in Blackest Black is still the best.  No contest.

3.)  If you are coloring your hair dark, just do it out of a box.  Really.  So much more convenient and cheaper.  Clairol Perfect 10 Dark Brown forever!

4.)  Double sided Scotch tape works just as well as it’s more expensive counterparts for all those don’t-need-a-wardrobe-malfunction moments.

5.)  Foot Petals.  Foot Petals.  Foot Petals.

What are your beauty and fashion never-goes-out-of-style truths?

we heart your comments!
  1. I love L’oreal’s Voluminous mascara. Love it.

    I’ve never tried Prep H before, but I do color my own hair brown. I use the Natural Instincts Semi-permanent. One tip I can give to not have “brassy” color is to use an Ash or cool tone.
