Dress Like a Celebrity

Don’t have an Oscar or multi-million dollar paycheck?

Don’t sweat it.

No matter what budget you’re on, you can still look like a celebrity. Yes, rocking a red carpet dress and mink eyelashes will make you look super fabulous. But what about feeling super fabulous?

To look like a celeb, it’s all about the confidence. No matter who you are, if you feel good, you look good. Whatever you buy, make sure you love the way you look. This means buying clothes you feel comfortable in, fit well and can strut down the street in with hundreds of paparazzi following you. Now that you’ve got the attitude down, it’s time to go shopping. Here are some key pieces you need to dress like a celebrity:

Sunglasses

When was the last time you saw a celebrity out and about without a pair of the latest shades?

Never.

Sunglasses are a great way to update your wardrobe and can be had on the cheap. The secret is to buy sunglasses that are high quality and look as good as designer names. Try on different shapes and brands. Don’t feel like you can’t go over the top a little either. Like a celebrity,

bigger is always better, and that definitely goes for your sunglasses. If they aren’t covering half your face, you’re doing something wrong.

Handbag

Yep, celebs always have the most in-style handbag and carry them with style. To get a 

handbag that won’t break the bank

, go for lesser-known brands that have very discreet logos and look like real leather. Many times, second-hand stores have a wide variety of designer and vintage handbags that look great with a little TLC.

Buy a used bag and show it some love with a leather conditioner.

No matter what style you choose, make sure the bag looks sturdy and has a great form that will hold up no matter where you go. For winter, you can’t go wrong with a cross-body or carry-all tote hanging from your arm.

Shoes

Whether you’re short or tall, heels and wedges always make someone look a little bit more

flashy.

Department stores like Macy’s have 

the best shoe sales

, so no matter what your budget is you can find a variety of sizes and styles. 

This season, instead of just buying a knee-high boot, find a knee-high boot with a little bit of a wedge and maybe some embellishment like studs. 

Adding hardware to a shoe automatically dresses it up and makes a statement. 

When you’re looking for heels, don’t shy away from color. You want every part of your outfit to push the limit a little bit and shoes are a great place to start.

Lipstick

No celebrity leaves the house without makeup. If you’re trying to look like one,

neither should you

. Go

bold

with a

bright

red

lip

for winter and don’t be afraid to add some gloss to give it shimmer and shine. Even if you don’t like caking on makeup, wearing bright lipstick is a great way to make people notice you without spending a lot of time getting ready.

If you read

fashionado

regularly then you know that I am a HUGE Thom Browne fan - from his theatrical runway shows to the fit and tailoring of the clothes - it's flawless! So it should not be surprising that his fanpage is always in my Facebook news feed. AND. I love it. "Like" it and see for yourself. TB doesn't disappoint. Wouldn't you want your FB news feed to be filled with images like the one above?!

Sexy Workout Fashions for the New Year

sexy-workout-fashion-fashionado

One of the best ways to get motivated for working out is by looking great. When you look great, it gives you confidence. That means that you will have more productive workouts when you throw on a sexy outfit. You will perform well when you look good. If you want to look your best at the gym, then take a peek at these sexy workout fashions.

Nike

Nike is the pioneer when it comes to all things exercise. They have been making more workout clothing for more people than any other brand since the early 80s. The company basically grew up with the fitness movement. If you want to look great, then throw on some sexy Nike workout gear the next time you go to the gym. One of the best things about Nike gear is that it is relatively inexpensive and easy to find in stores everywhere.

Under Armour

There is not brand of fitness clothing that is hotter or more fashionable right now than Under Armour. This tight fitting gear uses the power of compression to pull your muscles tighter, making you both look sexier and perform better during your workouts. 

As well as making synthetic exercise clothing that gives warmth, muscle support, and moisture-wicking properties, Under Armour also makes the best T-shirts in the fitness game. 

Their cotton workout T-shirt is five times as soft as a standard cotton T-shirt.

Mia Brazilia

The designer and founder of

Mia Brazilia

is Kaneta Harmon, who was an undefeated Muay Thai kick 

boxer and workout fanatic. She was unsatisfied with the level of sexiness and cuteness available in the selection of workout clothing she found in stores. She decided to take matters into their own

hands, creating one of the best lines of workout clothing in the world. 

 If you want a good idea of just how fabulous workout clothing from Mia Brazilia, consider the fact that Harmon’s guiding style icon in designing her clothing is Audrey Hepburn. 

This shows you just how stylish these clothes are.

Lululemon

For women who like to do yoga, there are no more stylish yoga clothing makers than

Lululemon

. 

They 

make very chic running clothing and sports bras as well. 

Their exercise clothing is both functional and 

fashionable. 

You will love the wide variety of unique designs and prints that Lululemon employs in 

their styles.

Nina.B.Roze

If you are looking for a very soulful line of fitness clothing, then you should take a look at the designs 

from

Nina.B.Roze

. 

Their line of workout clothing is inspired by Victorian fashion elegance that is 

merged with the form-hugging, functional requirements of movement, dance and yoga. 

The clothing 

from Nina.B.Roze is very sexy and very unique, and you will be sure to get noticed when you wear it 

to the gym or yoga studio.

YOGASMOGA

This line of workout clothing

is not

just

for looking good. They consider their clothing to be part of a way of life that represents balance and harmony. 

They make incredible yoga clothing, but their gear is also 

great to wear to spinning classes, kick boxing, step class or rock climbing as well. 

Don’t settle for baggy sweats and an old T-shirt next time you go to the gym. Wear some sexy workout clothing that will be both fashionable and functional. 

You will look great and get a better workout.

Rihanna Rocks Balmain

When isn't Rihanna sizzling? Lately, she is known for her supermodel fashion style as much as for her music. And now, Rihanna is the new face of Balmain. The admiration with the French fashion house is mutual between the pop singer and the label's creative director Olivier Rousteing. Please don't stop the music?

Please don't stop the fashion!
