Eye Ball Tattoos: Disturbing New Beauty Trend:

Divas don’t let you kids don’t try this at home.

Face tattoos were so yesterday. Today the new trend in dancehall is eye ball tattoos. Yes,  their eye balls. People really are getting their peepers tattooed in more or less the same way that you would get any other part of your body inked.

Upcoming dancehall star Alkaline shows the world that a tattoo can be done on any part of the body including the eye ball.

The disturbing new trend is not only dangerous, but its scary looking. Perhaps someone is taking this whole demonic trend in dancehall a bit too serious.

To procedure includes injecting pigment, which is the exact same type you would use in a regular tattoo, into your eyeball.

To make matters worse Alkaline look like he is 12 years old and check out his single “Church Folks” below.

How To Wear Polka Dots Like A Pop Princess

There is something so playful and cheerful about the classic polka dot especially during the winter months. These spots are everywhere from scarves to shoes to iPhone cases. And everyone from Kate Middleton to Taylor Swift to Divabetic’s January Diva Inspiration, Rihanna are wearing them!

“Polka dots are a fun print that adds whimsy to any ensemble,” says Gretta Monahan, the style guru from “The Rachael Ray Show.”

But before you start covering yourself in polka dot prints, Monahan has a few words of warning. “If you’re self-conscious about a particular body part, avoid wearing large polka dots on that area, as this print definitely calls attention to itself.”

She also cautions against “going polka-dot crazy, head to toe.” Monahan explains that because polka dots are extremely eye-catching, “one item is enough. If you’re not one to wear lots of prints, start with accessories,” she says, suggesting polka dot scarves, handbags, pumps, umbrellas and mobile phone cases.

Monahan also says there’s nothing wrong with pairing polka dots with other patterns and prints — just as long as you know how to do it correctly. “When done well, the look is fun and eclectic,” says Monahan. Likewise, it can be downright messy when done wrong. “Pick up on an accent color in a plaid or floral pattern that’s also in your polka dot print,” she first suggests. “Also pay attention to scale — If your floral pattern is large, go for smaller dots and vice versa.” And don’t worry — if you’re not a fan of this technique, Monahan suggests mixing textures instead. “A slim-fitting denim shirt worn with a flared polka dot skirt is unexpected and unique,” she explains.

But above all, Monahan only recommends wearing polka dots if it makes you feel good. “I say go as bold as you’re comfortable with,” she says. “If you’re not comfy with this trend … avoid it. Your uneasiness will show through, which typically ruins any look.”

Here’s one more tip for wearing polka dots:  If you choose to carry a polka dot handbag, wear with a solid dress and solid shoes. By Michael Bartiromo. Reprinted from Fox News

Big Fashion Trends 2012: Jeggings

Big Fashion Trends 2012

One of the biggest fashion trends of the year has to be … JEGGINGS. “Jeggings”  are leggings which are styled to look like tight denim jeans. They’re the perfect combination of your favorite skinny jeans and basic leggings. The big difference is that Jeggings are not cut off like leggings. They don’t have a button or zipper and they’re much more form fitting than skinny jeans. So you better get the junk in your trunk organized before slipping into a pair!!

Here are several customer reviews for Jeggings:

“I hated them on me. Too weirdly wrinkly and yet too snug all the way down my legs, and did nothing to flatter them. And my legs are my best asset! I am not a boots-and-jeans person anyway so I don’t want/need to pursue it further.”

“I am an hourglass/pear, 5’3″ and own the jeggings. They are all heavenly.   They do not stretch out. I own them both in the same size. They give me a good amount of scrunch at the bottom. LOVE.”

“I am 5’2 and hourglass(i think) and I bought jeggings and love them. They do not stretch out and no muffin top works great with tunics. These are my favorite to wear with my boots because the jeans fit inside the boot and stay not allot of material poohing out.”

“Fashion has always played an integral part in my life and career,” said Divabetic’s January Diva Inspiration Rihanna.

Diva Front Row at Calvin Klein – Spring 2013

Calvin Klein’s Francisco Costa showed a Spring 2013 collection that didn’t disappoint with exquisite veiled dresses consisting of two layers, the most impressive of which had a strapless white under layer with netting on top.

We think this look is diva-licious!!!

Costa created a printed illusion by putting an abstract black lace dress over a white satin bustier and mesh skirt.

Costa’s Hollywood fashion fans, Amy Adams, Emma Stone and Diane Kruger, seemed to be greatly admiring his work — and taking notes — from the front row.

We have a feeling some of these designs will show up on these actresses during awards season. There are no great Oscar gowns here but there are lots of suits and dresses perfect for the Nominees Luncheon, Guild screenings and never-ending studio cocktail parties.  Here’s hoping we catch one or two A-List actresses on the red tomato carpet in Calvin Klein.

Ultimate Fashion Statement: Neon Sneakers!

Fluorescent colored workout gear– particularly sneakers– were a big trend at the London 2012 Olympics and now they’re making a statement in New York City.

From neon green, pink and yellow, the world’s best athletes and weekend warriors  are stepping up their game in sneakers with an added pick me up. Earlier today, I must have seen at least 20 joggers and runners wearing fluorescent colored sneakers in Central Park.

“They’re standing out because the colors on their feet are so bright. From a viewership point it makes you want to put on a pair and get out there,” said Jaclyn Emerick, Fitness Editor at SELF magazine.

Fashion editors believe the neon fashion trend is going to last.

“We’re not just seeing it in track and field… it can psyche you up,” added Emerick.

Some of the bright shoes are the Nike FlyKnit Trainers, part of Nike’s US medal stand footwear and apparel collection.  The lightweight shoes are made of eco-friendly material and designed to fit and feel like socks.

The Freshest Nail Art Trend for Summer 2012

This summer getting a manicure is all about nail art and playing with existing or on-trend colours and adding more depth to polish designs. Fresh, fruit art never really go out of style — they just evolve and get more awesome.

You can pick up some decals at your local craft store, applying it to wet polish with some tweezers, and sealing your nutritient-rich mani with a top coat to protect it.

“Nail art has come a long way, but this is the first time it’s a conversation piece,” says beauty expert Dana Caruso.

She explains decking our your fingers with crazy colours and fun designs are the “it” way to alter your mood and show off your personality.

Keep in mind, not all manicures are created equal. ”The level of complete disregard for manicuring and health and sanitation is just absolutely appalling,” says celebrity manicurist Beth Fricke, who has groomed the nails of everyone from Angelina Jolie to Zoe Saldana. “There are good ones out there, and you just have to be aware and ask questions. Basically what you want to look for is that the tools are cleaned with soap, water and a nailbrush. Then they need to be soaked. Sometimes they do that ahead of time and put them in the sanitary bags. Ask them what their process is. I have no problem with people asking me how I clean my tools. That’s a question I should be able to answer.”

U.S. Olympic Uniforms Cause Outrage

Uniforms for U.S. Olympic athletes are American red, white and blue — but made in China. That has members of Congress fuming.

Republicans and Democrats railed Thursday about the U.S. Olympic Committee’s decision to dress the U.S. team in Chinese manufactured berets, blazers and pants while the American textile industry struggles economically with many U.S. workers desperate for jobs.

“I am so upset. I think the Olympic committee should be ashamed of themselves. I think they should be embarrassed. I think they should take all the uniforms, put them in a big pile and burn them and start all over again,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., told reporters at a Capitol Hill news conference on taxes.

“If they have to wear nothing but a singlet that says USA on it, painted by hand, then that’s what they should wear,” he said, referring to an athletic jersey.

House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi told reporters at her weekly news conference that she’s proud of the nation’s Olympic athletes, but “they should be wearing uniforms that are made in America.”

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said simply of the USOC, “You’d think they’d know better.”

In a statement, the U.S. Olympic Committee defended the choice of designer Ralph Lauren for the clothing at the London Games, which begin later this month.

“Unlike most Olympic teams around the world, the U.S. Olympic Team is privately funded and we’re grateful for the support of our sponsors,” USOC spokesman Patrick Sandusky said in a statement. “We’re proud of our partnership with Ralph Lauren, an iconic American company, and excited to watch America’s finest athletes compete at the upcoming Games in London.”

Ralph Lauren also is dressing the Olympic and Paralympic teams for the closing ceremony and providing casual clothes to be worn around the Olympic Village. Nike has made many of the competition uniforms for the U.S. and outfits for the medal stand.

Light Leather Is Summer’s Hottest Trend

Most of us don’t usually associate black leather with soaring heat but for many celebrities it’s this summer’s hottest trend.

Leather is no longer limited to heavy jackets on burly men you see in the film, Wild Hogs.

Slim leather pants are an easy alternative to jeans in the winter, and the material is now just as suitable for the warmer days of summer.

The key to wearing leather in summer is choosing a shape that falls a bit away from the body, giving your skin room to breathe. It’s also important to go for a lighter weight than what you’d go for in winter, and opting for neutral colors like beige, white, or even light pastels.

Summer’s Newest Hair Trend: Hair Chalk

If you’ve been a little wary of coloring your hair, especially on your own at home get ready for  an awesome way to get multi-colored tips without any commitment - hair chalking! It’s super-easy, and we had a ton of fun doing it.

Want to turn back time like Cher, and look like teenager again?!!! Here’s how you can get the look too!
You’ll need:
Soft pastel chalk. We picked this giant set up from a local craft store for about $5!
A small spray bottle filled with water
A flat iron or curling iron
Rubber gloves
A old towel or t-shirt you don’t mind getting color on.

Step 1: Spray a 1-inch section of hair with water. You don’t need to soak the entire strand, just go as high up as you want the color to be.

Step 2: Color on your hair with one of the pastels.  Professionals recommend choosing about threecolors, and putting one at a time in your hair. Start with the lightest shade first, since, as you can see, the color gets all over your gloves and you’ll end up with a muddied version of the same hue throughout if you go dark to light.

Step 3: Wait for your hair to air dry.

Step 4: Using the curling or flat iron, go over each colored strand. This sets the colors in your hair, so it will last longer. Then brush and style however you normally would!

The color stayed in  hair (which is naturally medium blonde)for about a week, while my friend’s (who bleaches her hair) washed out the next day. The best part about this technique is that it works for people with darker hair too, although the color is much more subtle.
