"I like creating images"

 -Kate Moss                                                 

   There are a plethora of models that grace the covers and pages in magazines, ads, commercials, and all other marketing campaigns of the like; however, very few are able to influence society and become a household name. Kate Moss has managed to accomplish this and much more, including becoming known for more than her face and physique, but for her style.

Grungy, effortless, and attitude are just a few words that begin to describe this icon, but somehow these words that could be misconstrued as unkempt, become a thing of glamour when applied to Kate Moss. She manages to appear well dressed and unstressed when photographed, and even though it feels like we can't achieve this, the secret might just be a big dose of confidence. Regardless, we admire her for her fashion sense, and will continue to look to her for inspiration so long as her image exists.

"Elegance is the only beauty that never fades."

  

  -Audrey Hepburn                          

Not only do her words of wisdom still hold true, but the legacy of this fashion icon is sure to be one that never goes away. As graceful as she was beautiful, and always elegant, Audrey Hepburn remains an inspiration in the fashion world because her look is timeless. Tailored pieces, simplistic style, and classic accessories, all come together to give off a confident, put-together result.

A Touch of Light

'Tis the season to be jolly, and nothing makes you look happier, healthier, and more spirited than glowing skin! While it might be fun to experiment with glitter on your eyes, or maybe a sparkly lipgloss, a discoball face is not the most natural of looks. However, you can achieve a "lit from within" look with the help of some highlighter tastefully applied on the high points of the face: mainly the cheekbones and a tiny bit down the bridge of the nose .

They come in a range of shades, which is good when it comes to choosing the one that best compliments your skin tone. Starting from the silvery pearl shades to the deep coppery ones, there is one for everyone. So if you would love to get your glow on, stay tuned!

MAC Cream Color Base in Improper Copper is a lovely highlight for dark skin tones, because it has warm undertones and would not turn ashy on the skin

Royal Chic

It seems like the latest thing the media had been obsessed over is Kate Middleton's pregnancy, and why not? It is great news that the Duchess of Cambridge is expecting a little bundle of joy; however, we've decided to praise her not only for the latest news in her life, but for her amazing style.

Ladylike, chic, modern, and fashion forward: Kate manages to balance all of these components to create a style befitting of a princess. These characteristics only add to the fact that she is personable, and carries herself with grace. No wonder we love her so much!
