Style guide: How to rock the metallic trend

It is holiday season! Want to wear something festive? Choose metallics! Metallics can instantly turn an outfit from drab to fab. Metallic trend is really relevant for the winter holidays, not only for Christmas or New Year. Here is a complete guide on how to rock the metallic trend this season.

How to wear metallic clothes?

A little bit of artfully placed metal—whether gold, silver, sequins, or jewel-tones—goes a long way. Metallics can be very showy, so make it daytime appropriate in a matte finish. When it comes to how to wear metallics, matte finishes are the safer option, especially when it comes to clothing. A beaded metallic top is a great way to make a pair of dark denim jeans worn for a night out with friends look more exciting. Metallic isn't just for formal anymore. For a night out, a metallic skirt is a great way to dress up a look. It's an elegant look is great for a night out where a formal cocktail dress isn't necessary but a slightly elevated look is. As a general rule of thumb, it’s best to keep your makeup natural, your hair simple, and pair one gorgeous metallic piece, like a purse or pair of shoes, with slightly lower-key wardrobe essentials.

How to wear metallic accessories?

Metallics are most easily worn in the evening, a clutch or shoe in a metallic fabric is the perfect way to take your outfit from day to night. If you’re feeling shy about metallics, shoes are the easiest way to baby step into the gilded waters. Silver heels are the metallic equivalent of nude pumps: they go with just about anything, from jeans to cocktail dresses. On the weekends, dress up your denim by carrying your Saturday essentials around with you in a warm gold tote bag. Usually, golden accessory is a wonderful choice for a girl with "warm" type of appearance and "warm" skin tone."Cold" lady will look perfect with the silver.

How to wear metallic eyeshadow?

You may have tried on all kinds of eyeshadows, but the one that’s really ‘in’ right now, especially during the winters, is the trend of metallic eyeshadows. Metallic eyeshadows are mainly snowy or frosted. Most of the metallic eyeshadows are in light and nude colors, some of them can also be bright, like cherry, peach, pinks and lilacs. If applied correctly, the metallic eyeshadow can take your whole makeup and your entire look a notch higher. If you wish to make a bold statement on a night out, you may add a thick cat eye over a shimmering metallic eyeshadow. Foil eyeshadow has become a trend over the last few seasons and can make a simple dark eye fresh-looking by giving it a revamp. Add some metallic foil to the outer corner and coordinate the look with a similar shade of shadow to create a smoky effect that matches.

Pre-wedding skin care: How to get flawless skin before wedding

Looking the best on the big day is the dream of every bride-to-be. However, the wedding preparation work is really tiring. Many women get tired and fretful when preparing the wedding. Therefore, their skin condition gets worse. Here are some helpful ideas on how to get flawless skin before your wedding.

How to choose skincare treatments for different skin conditions?

For oily or acne prone skin, serums and gel treatments are best since they are typically oil free and are applied under moisturizers and makeup. If you have dry skin, opt for milky cleansers and heavy moisturizers. Many mature women have skin aging problem, you can do skin firming treatments at home or at a spa to lift and firm your flabby facial skin. What’s more, you should have regular exfoliation treatments to avoid dull skin-tone. You’d better choose gentle skincare lines with natural ingredients if you have sensitive skin.

Effective daily skincare steps

Skin Cleansing: Use a makeup remover or oil-based cream to take off the makeup, then wash your face before using a cleanser. After drying skin, apply a cleanser that suits your skin type on your skin and rub gently in a circular manner and wash your face again with water.

Skin Exfoliating: Use mild warm water and a gel-based scrub to eliminate dirt from the face. Keep in mind, do not use hot water.

Skin Moisturizing: Apply thick moisturizing cream on your skin. Thick moisturizers are light in nature and keep your skin protected for long hours. A day moisturizer must contain an SPF (Sun Protection Factor).

Dos and don'ts for pre-wedding skin care

1.       Drink plenty of water regularly every day. It's no secret that drinking water is good for your health. And while experts can't prove that drinking pure water will give you clear skin. Experts report that drinking two or more glasses of water a day increases blood flow to the skin.

2.       Wash your face every day. Use a cleanser that will effectively wash away makeup, dirt and bacteria from your face.

3.       Do not skip the use of a daily moisturizer. Whether you wash your face in the shower or in the sink, apply a moisturizer immediately after drying off.

4.       Never underestimate the power of getting a good night's sleep. It's not just good for your well-being, but your skin will benefit from a good snooze fest, too.

2015 Wedding Trends I love

Usually, wedding season is typically mid-April through mid-October. It’s not wedding season now, but if you are planning a wedding during the wedding season, you have to start your wedding preparation now. Here are some newest 2015 wedding trends I gathered for you. Hope you can find some inspiration.

Wedding color trend

Aquamarine will be present everywhere next wedding season. This color is proved to be a stress reducer! As an added bonus, it's an amazing way to cross off your something blue. Scuba Blue, playful and reminiscent of a tropical ocean; Lucite Green, cool and refreshing, yet light in tone; and Toasted Almond, representing warmth, are other colors that will be popular. Plus, look out for Glacier Gray, which works for him or her. This color is unobtrusive, but contrasts and enhances, working with all the other hot 2015 swatches, slipping into the background and allowing other colors to be the stars.

Wedding flower trend

The ‘just-picked-from-the-garden’ look has been popular with brides throughout 2014, and this gorgeous trend doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere for the next year! Next summer, brides will choose softly-colored blooms that reflect the gentle tones of the English garden. Instead of having a massed rose bouquet or other bouquet of one single flower, choose mixed flowers that look like they could come from the garden. If you’re having an autumn wedding, then why not choose flowers inspired by the woodland? You may try ferns, foxgloves and blowsy roses. The look you’re going for is unstructured and wild.

Wedding cake trend

2015 presents many new flavors, unique ideas and nontraditional wedding cake arrangements. There are of course classic trends making a come back as well, so if you desire a more traditional cake there’s still plenty of styles for you to choose from. Many brides now crave a strong French influence for their big day serving up treats such as crepes, croquembouches, and even macaroon. Not only are these treats being served at the weddings, but bridal showers, and engagement dinners as well.2015 is truly the year to create and design the wedding cake of your dreams.

Wedding dress trend

Utterly romantic and soft, lace set on a nude underlay made a big appearance in bridal this season. What's more, blue wedding dresses graced the bridal fashion runways this season for a look that’s nontraditional but still pretty and sophisticated. And ball gowns with a hint of the midriff were all over the bridal fashion runways.

Color guide: How to wear burgundy

If you ask me which color you should add to your winter closet, I would recommend you the color burgundy. This shade is combined from the shades of red and blue. This color is flattering for many skin tones. The burgundy color should be essential part of your winter wardrobe. You can wear burgundy in different occasions.

Burgundy looks great with a range of blue shades, and works particularly well with navy blue. You may let navy serve as the base of your outfit and add burgundy accents.  For example, you may wear a burgundy cardigan over a navy blue shift dress and finish the classic look with tan leather loafers and some dark red stud earrings. Besides, turquoise blue also works well with burgundy. You can wear some standout turquoise chandelier earrings with a burgundy dress and gold strappy sandals.

If you want a luxury look, you can also wear metallic colors like gold and silver with burgundy color. Gold brings out burgundy’s warmth, while silver gives you a perfect, cool contrast to the deep red. When wearing burgundy with gold or silver, prevent your outfit from becoming gaudy by keeping accessories simple.

If you wish to look classy and elegant, wear brown shades with the burgundy. Darker brown shades blend well with burgundy, while lighter browns and tan tones serve as complementary contrast. You may pair your burgundy dress with dark brown boots if you want a stylish and comfortable look. For a casual look, you may wear a burgundy slacks with classic light brown crewneck sweater.

This beautiful color is great choice for a cocktail dress, but it that case, focus on the colors to be more on the tone of blue, purple shades. For casual daily looks you can choose any variation on the color that you like, and I suggest to add some pattern or print. Whatever you choose you would look great and trendy in this beautiful warm color.View tons of stunning burgundy prom dresses online at LunaDress. 

Burgundy looks good in leather goods, in shoes and as an accent to neutral colors like grey, navy and tans. However, feel free to incorporate this color in a stronger way. A coat in burgundy shade would be gorgeous for winter as would some great sweaters or even a pair of jeans. You would look gorgeous and catch the eyes of all the people if you are dressed in a casual sweater in burgundy, denim jeans, basic tan suede boots and bag along and a complementary scarf.
