A pretty ponytail is the perfect way to start the day especially if you don't have too much time to spend styling your precious locks to perfection and thankfully there are various ponytail hair styles to experiment with every time you desire. Apart from the fact a stylish ponytail can offer you plenty of comfort in the summer by minimizing the contact your hair has with your neck and back if you have super long hair, thus keeping you cool, this type of hairstyle can help polish your look to perfection regardless of your natural hair texture as this is a look perfect for everyone with the perfect length. Keep your tresses pulled up high, gently and loosely swished on the side, centered and with a little bit of pouf as either way you'll look lovely. To achieve a cool looking ponytail, separate a piece of hair from your ponytail and wrap it around the base to conceal the hair elastic and pin the end under using a bobby pin. This way your hair will look classy and perfect for every occasion.

 A sleek and chic updo can be the perfect weapon to landing a classy, elegant and sophisticated look that is bound to make heads turn and achieving such hairstyles is not all that difficult. Turn towards a round brush, a flat iron, a hair elastic, bobby pins and some hairspray to achieve perfection and start by brushing your freshly washed locks straight using the round brush. Flat iron the hair to make it sleek and shiny and pull the hair into an elegant bouffant chignon, a cool vintage twist updo, a faux-asymmetric cut just like Rachel Bilson's sleek midi style updo or go all classy and modern with a simple and sleek braided top knot.
Set any flyaway hairs with a bit of hairspray and let your perfect looking coiffure impress at any formal/semi-formal event.

Stacy Keibler sits down for a chat with SHAPE magazine. George Clooney's girlfriend shares some of her diet and fitness secrets. Check out her interview.

Stacy Keibler sits down for a chat with SHAPE and shares some of her diet secrets and reveals how she manages to stay fit, even when she travels! From Barry's Bootcamp to Pilates, she also talks to the magazine about all the different workouts she does to stay slim and sexy.

"Health, fitness and wellness have been a very big part of my life. So, it's my lifestyle. If I'm not working out, I have to balance it out and eat a little cleaner that day. I eat as organic as I can. I think that portion control is very important, but I also think in everything in moderation. So I'm not the girl who's gonna tell you that I never have a little bit of dessert or I don't have a glass of wine," George Clooney's girlfriend says.

Speaking about her fitness routine, the 32-year-old actress and model says that, "I get bored easily so I love to switch it up. I will do everything. I will hike, I will run the stairs wherever I am, I will find some outdoor activity to do. I have a trainer. I do Pilates. I like to change it up. I like to work my whole body and also keep my mind stimulated."

When it comes to workout motivation, Stacy believes that it is important to make fitness a habit. Just like drinking water. "When I'm really busy and I'm working and I can't get to the gym, like, you start slacking a bit, so you have to really get in that groove."

What about staying in shape while on the road? The stunning blonde says that she carries "a bag full of bands, Bootcamp DVDs, things that I can modify, that I can do anywhere."

For Kiebler, moderation is the key. If there is a dessert, "I will have a bite or two but I won't have the whole thing. It's about being conscious about what's going on so you can balance it out the next day."

The best type of dance for the body? "I think that dance is such a great workout, you burn so many calories and I think it's a really fun way to work out," Stacy told SHAPE. For gorgeous, sculpted legs, Stacy recommends squats and lunges.



Oscar de la Renta Campaign Fall 2012


Oscar-de-la-Renta-Campaign-Fall-2012

For Oscar de la Renta femininity with a refined touch is an all year trend. The new fall/winter 2012-2013 campaign doesn't stray from the norm offering a variety of lust worthy ensembles as inspiration.

We might not be super ecstatic to see the summer days slowly coming to an end but we sure share a different view of the upcoming fashion choices, particularly when we are able to see so many gorgeous options from our favorite high end labels. The Oscar de la Renta label is grabbing attention once again with the fabulous alternatives with elegance and refinement as top goals. The label is not one to focus on utilitarian vibes but instead delivers ultra sophisticated feminine ensembles to help us steal the spotlight every single time.

The newest campaign features Candice Swanepoel and Katryn Kruger and was lensed by Craig McDean and styled by Alex White, an initiative well received after the multitude of campaigns with Karlie Kloss on the spotlight. The newest looks endorsed by the label have a surprisingly optimistic allure both from a color stand point and accessories wise. If we wouldn't know any better we could easily confused the looks with early spring ensembles, however this vibe only amplifies the overall appeal of the looks.

The label isn't afraid to play with proportions with airy strapless dresses, bold yet sophisticated tones and ultra noticeable accessories. Making a classy statement with complete confidence does require a lot of attention to details and the newest looks have plenty of interesting touches worth noticing. The statement necklaces are perhaps the most noteworthy even though all the jewelry choices are meant to be conspicuous and become strong focal points of the outfit.

Also in the noteworthy category are the bedazzled clutches that complete the outfits perfectly. On the more practical side we have exotic skin texture handbag which aside from being on trend, magnifies the luxurious allure of the looks and makes the list of covetable items from the newest collection seem almost endless. Add that to the lovely beauty ideas that can serve as inspiration for the new season and the list is complete.

 Print lovers are also in for a treat. While the great majority of the prints are focused around the dominant style of the season to come, animal prints, the label also offers abstract prints or versatile stripes for those who are looking for an alternative. If the 70s influences dominated the past fall/winter season and we were able to see a multitude of wide leg pants, we can now notice that this is no longer the case and that skinny jeans and flirty skirts are seen as the better option for a flattering put-together look.

On the other hand, we can also notice that faux fur inserts and similar pieces are still seen as a fabulous trendy vibe. Since visual interest is easily created through clever layering techniques and well placed color punches, the need for dramatic accessories is practically eliminated. Versatile ankle boots, gorgeous printed sandals when or classy pumps along with classy clutches are enough to complete the looks and provide the right balance to the outfit. It's beyond clear: the new season is rife with amazing style possibilities worth indulging in.
