Are You 5 Star Chic?

If you listen to hip hop, then I'm sure you've heard the rap song "5 Star Chick" by Yo Gotti. I'm curious if you think you're 5 star chic? Chic by definition means 'stylish' and 'smart'. But I also think it's a mindset, a way of thinking, an attitude.

Please don't count the designer items in your closet and answer yes. Designer and/or luxury items DO NOT make you chic. They only compliment what you have going on. So think about it and share why you are 5 star chic!!!!!

How Often Do you Wax


Your eyebrows???? I stopped waxing my brows probably 2 years ago and started getting them threaded. Theading is 100% natural without the use of chemicals. I would always breakout due to the mystery ingredients in the wax. My friend Courtney, who is a fabulous MAC makeup artist, convinced me to purchase the MAC spiked brow pencil. Best decision ever! It's easy to use and perfect for filling in sparse areas. I can't live without it! I'll have to ask Courtney to do a before and after so you can see the difference.

Welcome to Beauty Board

Welcome to Beauty Board! beauty, fashion and everything chic in between.

Today I found myself starring at my closet hoping that the items I no longer wear would disappear and magically be replaced with all new items. That didn't happen. Instead, my eye focused on two items:

1. one shoulder, bright multi-print mini dress that I've yet to wear, but have packed on every summer trip I've taken for the last 3 years. Each time I try it on I feel like a lost cast member from the Love Boat.

2. a J Crew Candy Tweed dress that I bought, returned, told a friend about, they bought it, I got jealous, proceeded to talk them out of it, and "encouraged" them to give it to me. DISCLAIMER: I don't exhibit this type of fashion behaviour often. I've had the dress for 6 months and have yet to wear it. I am on a fashion "fast" and can't buy anything. So this dress is the closest thing I have to a new item. This is how I would like to wear it..

TEEN NIGHT OUT










This is a great look for Homecoming or a night out with the Girls! All of the items are from Forever 21 except the shoes are from Wet Seal. It's a very affordable look. The first item is an origami black dress. Then there is a red cape jacket for the cool temperatures. The red on top of the black dress is an excellent way to add color in a subtle way, because you can take this off throughout the night. Then their is a great gold infused turquoise clutch wallet. All three of these colors compliment each other well.

Now for the accessories. The necklace is large and gold with turquoise jewels. Do not be afraid of its size. Remember the dress is simple so you need large eye popping jewelry. Next you have a choice of earrings to choose from, all of which will make a great look. Next we have three rings. Wear all of the rings or just one. Finally we have a jeweled cuff. To end the look we a light red pump.

You do not have to match everything, just accent certain colors and feel free to incorporate what ever color you like in moderation. Keep the dress simple and add color to make it POP!

Have a wonderful time out in your awesome new look!
