Makeup for Dark Skinned Women-SongBirdDiva4Life

I am doing yet another series. This series is about makeup for black women, especially dark skinned women. I am of a deeper complexion and really appreciate the women who have complexions similar to mine becasue it's good to see what things look like on someone with a similar or matching skin tone. This month I really feature some of my favorite yotube beauties with deeper complexions. The first person I want to share is SongBirdDiva4Life. This woman is a fashinista who knows a lot about makeup and is very passionate about her channel. I find many of  her videos to be indepth and very helpful:

Book Review: Lauren Conrad Style

I have had the pleasure of coming across two of Lauren Conrad's books in the library. Today I am reviewing Lauren Conrad Style. I found this book to be easy and enjoyable to read. Lauren gives good advice and also mentions some great websites in Lauren Conrad Style. She includes tips related to:

How to Build Your Wardrobe

Accessories

Mastering Your Closet (Organization)

Dressing for Work/School/Travel

 

If you are someone who is looking for simple advice on how to build your wardrobe or are going through a makeover (like I am), this book gives you good advice that is ideal to start with. Her book is great for building your own unique style foundation or blueprint and expanding from there. The photos in the book are gorgeous as well! I checked out Lauren Conrrad Beauty and will do a review of that book as well in an upcoming blog post.
