Today's Obsessions

Posted: 08 Jun 2010 05:33 AM PDT

Well, we are always being told that what we eat affects our bodies, but did you know that it can also affect your beauty? Everyone loves to eat, so here are the foods that will make you gorgeous, rather than grotesque!

1. Avocado

Avocados are amazing food for the skin! Try buying one, eating half, and using the other half to mix up in a soothing facial. They don't contain cholesterol, and only good fats, and they really will make you glow. If you don't like the strong flavour, try mixing a mashed avocado with yoghurt, for a milder, creamier taste!

2. Fish

Fish and other oily foods containing fatty acids are really good for the hair, and will give it a gorgeous natural gloss. Eggs and peanuts also contain B7, which is good for promoting growth and keeping it healthy.

3. Iron

Lack of iron is typical in people with weak or brittle nails, but even if yours look healthy, to keep them at their best you need to keep them nourished! Fresh vegetables, nuts, seeds and red meat are perfect for this.

10 Fashionable Sunglasses for This Summer…

Posted: 08 Jun 2010 05:06 AM PDT

I love sunglasses! I also believe you can never have too many, especially during the summer. Check out these fashionable sunglasses below… I want them all!

1. Betsey Johnson ‘Retro Leopard’ Sunglasses

Price: $65.00 at shop.nordstrom.com
These glasses are sure to turn heads. The pink around the frame makes them stand out. I love the RayBan shape of these glasses, and of course, the bright pink animal print! Vintage fabulous!

2. Forever 21 – F1999

Price: $5.80 at forever21.com
A very fashionable pair of sunglasses for a low price. The gold around the arms of the glasses makes them look like an expensive pair of Marc Jacobs.

3. Charlotte Russe – Black and White Contrast Sunglasses

Price: $6.50 at charlotterusse.com
These glasses remind me of the Chanel brand! Perfect for any face shape and will compliment any outfit. And I love the black and white graphic on the sides. These would look great with a pair of ripped leggings and a cute tunic.

9 Bad Boys that We Love…

Posted: 08 Jun 2010 01:56 AM PDT

While I don't quite believe that women don't like good, eligible guys, there's something about bad boys that we can't help but love. Here's my pick of the many bad but lovable guys.

1. Robert Downey Jr.

Gets himself into an awful lot of trouble but still remains somehow utterly charming. A damn good actor to boot. Must be the sexy superhero thing he has going on.

2. Johnny Depp

Somewhat reformed as far as bad boys go, but who doesn't hold a soft spot for Johnny Depp?

3. Sean Penn

Even starred in a film called Bad Boys. Vocal, outspoken, and always good for annoying people who deserve to be annoyed.

20 Guys of the Twilight Series…

Posted: 07 Jun 2010 07:06 PM PDT

We already did a post showing the ladies of the Twilight series so we give you here the yummy, yummy men of the saga. Brace yourselves because you will be in for quite a HOT ride.

1. Robert Pattinson

Ah, the ever so moody Edward. Aside from acting, this English lad is also into modeling and making music. He plays the guitar and the piano. He also composes his own music. With that much talent, it’s no wonder he was one of the top earners of 2009.

2. Taylor Lautner

We all know that this fit young man plays Jacob. He is only 18 and guess what? He is reportedly the highest paid actor in Hollywood today.

3. Peter Facinelli

Peter plays Carlisle in the series. He is the husband of Jennie Garth and they have three young daughters. Okay, I sure did not know he and Jennie were related in any way.

4. Kellan Lutz

Kellan is 25 but he has been modeling since he was in his early teens. He was supposed to study chemical engineering for college but he caught the acting bug. Being a Navy SEAL was also part of his plans but he’s pretty much enjoying acting right now so that plan has been moved to the back burner.

5. Jackson Rathbone

First of all, that is an awesome name. Secondly, Jackson has a band called 100 Monkeys. Thirdly, he will play Sokka in the upcoming The Last Airbender film. I am very much excited about the last bit.
