I just found this quick tips in Pinterest on the perfect necklace for a perfect neckline. It is certainly a lot easier to find the right match.
The 89th Academy Awards show was held last night. As usual, the red carpet event is one of the highlights of the night. Well, actually, the mixed-up for Best Picture took the cake. Everyone was so surprised and caught off-guard. Which film were you rooting for? Here are a few of my favorite looks last night :-

The jumpsuit has become more like a seasonal outfit rather than trend, according to Vogue. It can be worn all year round and it is perfect for every occasion. Whether to a party, a casual lunch with friend or formal dinner, this one-piece style can make a complete outfit. Jumpsuits are chic and with the right accessories and heels, they will make one look elegant and taller. Are you a fan?

When you are press for time and your hair is greasy or oily, here is a simple trick you can do to keep your hair looking fresh. Just sprinkle a bit of baby powder on your hair and gently massage it into your scalp. Then comb your hair until the powder is no longer visible. Easy peasy right? The baby powder will soak in the oil fairly well. With this quick freshening up trick, you do not have to wash your hair daily. Another good option is to use corn flour.
So it was the 59th Annual Grammy Award ceremony two nights ago. I have always loved watching the Grammys because I get to watch my favourite artists performing. I also like to look at the Grammys Red Carpet. Some of the fashions are really gaudy and weird and it gets weirder every year. However, there are also some notable styles that are winning the red carpet. I have here some of my favourites. Oh not forgetting, one of the performances that I really enjoyed watching with the speakers blasting out loud is the tribute to Bee Gees by Demi Lovato, Tori Kelly, Little Big Town and Andra Day.

Sometimes I wonder why some people can look so effortlessly chic. These people are often in their denim and a shirt or even a sweatshirt but they really look fashionable. I know this is a silly though but I have been thinking about it for a while. How does one pull off a chic look together without much effort? Does a person have to be slim in order to pull off an effortless style? I read somewhere that it is important to have a set of efficient wardrobe. Key fashion pieces are important such as a few pairs of nice pants, denim, tailored tops, statement necklaces and shoes. Classic pieces that fit well, flatter your body and can be mixed and matched easily are all we need.
Time to give my wardrobe a makeover soon!

Have you heard the latest news about Queen Bee? She made an announcement on her Instagram that she is expecting twins with her hubby, Jay Z. Within the first hour, her post had over 2.4 million likes and over 160,000 comments . The social media went on a frenzy since The Carters’ announcement. Some internet sleuths even tried to predict the gender of the babies based on the outfit Beyonce was wearing during her pregnancy photo shoot.
The couple got married in 2008 and has an older daughter, Blue Ivy. Congratulations to the Carters. Suddenly I feel like listening to some Beyonce’s songs on my monitor.
