Design your Dream Dress- Finalists

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

I cannot tell you how difficult it was to decide which designs were going to be included in the top 3. So difficult, in fact, we decided to add 2 slots  bringing our top 5 finalists to your attention.

We had so many talented young women send in drawings- many thanks to all of you who labored over your design, who sent beautiful little notes and went through all the effort to be a part of this. It was a privilege to see your work.

         Voting:

  •  Each reader can vote 1 time. 
  • To enter your vote, leave a comment under the dress entry you have chosen, including the the name of the dress. 

For example:

“I vote for The Ava.      It’s cool because…blah blah etc.”

Things to Consider: 

  •  Would you wear this dress on a normal day running errands etc? 
  • Would you buy this dress for $45-$55? Would you buy this dress for $55-$85? 
  • If you were heading out and your jeans and this dress were side-by-side what would you choose? 
  • Would this dress be flattering on your body shape?
  • Would you choose a different color?

Eyebrows 101

Do not underestimate the eyebrows. In actuality, your brows change your facial appearance more than any other feature.
A necessary practice for healthy hygiene, properly shaped brow flatters and enhances your eyes, framing the face. Who wouldn’t want that?

 

 

 

Option #1: Salon Wax
You can schedule an appointment at a local salon and get your brows waxed for aprox $10. This can help provide your initial shape and you can maintain thereafter.

 

 

 

Option #2: Do it Yourself
Watch the video, it’s way easier to figure this out seeing a visual example. Two recommendations: 1) get good tweezers 2) Don’t over-tweeze.
