Reblog: Femme Fashionista Must Have: BCBG Max Azria Dresses

Our femme fashionista must have pick this month is BCBG Max Azria dresses. The famous bandage dress has been the “It” dress for the past few years. Everyone from Victoria Beckham to Ashley Simpson has been pictured wearing dresses from Max Azria. These dresses are for the fit and fabulous for sure and are better known as Hervé Léger by Max Azria. Make no mistake this super sexy dress will show off all of your curves. Below are some celebrities that wore the dress best.

Wearing her Hervé Léger by Max Azria dress to the launch of her perfume in Germany, Katy Perry wore one of the more classic designs. The warp dress crossed the singers’ famous bust elegantly and cinched her figure down to her knees. Perry is known for choosing outrageous outfits, but this look was toned down and perfect. We love the lavender.

Jessica Szohr wore her BCBG to a Hervé Léger by Max Azria Spring 2011 fashion show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week last year. The former gossip girl looked stunningly fit in the black cut out and mesh form fitting dress. The daring sheer fabric on the mid section add another level of sex appeal to this otherwise simple dress.

Kim Kardashian wore this form fitting Hervé Léger by Max Azria to a Las Vegas opening. The super sexy dress is quite intricate with a nude underlay with black detailing on top. The knee length dress hugs her figure straight down to the knees. This dress from the spring 2011 collection was definitely made for Kim.

Katherine McPhee turned heads in her Hervé Léger by Max Azria nude bandage dress in New York. McPhee’s slender body looked great in the barely there dress. A+ for Katherine for looking super sexy post her American Idol days.

Britney Spears wore a Hervé Léger by Max Azria design to Wango Tango music concert last year. The super fit celebrity looked super sexy in the hot pink maze print strapless wrap dress. We really love how Britney has cleaned up in the past year and a half. We’re so team Britney.

We’re a fan of Brooklyn Decker in her pink Hervé Léger by Max Azria worn at the ESPY awards. The dress doesn’t fit the thin supermodel as tight as it does some of the other celebrities we’ve seen, but she is really filling out the top of the dress well. The tank dress look works for the beautiful blonde.

Reblog - Exclusive Look: WikiFashionista.com Street Style Video Contest Winner Zoe B. Shows Us Her Swag

Look whose winning fashionistas! Zoe B. is coming to you from Century City, CA where she’s giving you an inside exclusive look at the newest fashion goodies she’s added to her wardrobe. Zoe selected some stylish fashion accessories from, Handbag Heaven, Affordable Scarves, Sunglass Warehouse and Shiekh Shoes. Check out the video of Zoe rocking her grand prize winnings in the video. And, below is a review on the items Zoe B. chose from the sponsors of the WikiFashionista.com street style video contest as well. Don’t forget to keep checking back for new street style videos at wikifashionista.com, where we speak to real girls, wearing real fashion, in real-time.

Retro Style Black Sunglasses

Starting from head to toe, Zoe selected the SW Retro Style Black Sunglasses with smoked lenses from Sunglass Warehouse. This ultra cool website is where the smart fashionistas go to get the hottest luxury inspired sunglasses for less. Nothing burns more than to scratch, break or lose and expensive pair of shades. And let’s face it, we all have done it at one time or another, which is why owning luxury accessories, can leave you feeling more grief than chic. Zoe’s Ray-ban inspired sunglasses would cost her a lot more than the similar Retro shades she’s wearing in the video.

Amanda Circle Scarf

Zoe selected the Amanda Circle Scarf in Red, because that’s her favorite color. As seen in the video, the infinity scarf double loops casually around the neck creating a layered look. The thing that is so attractive about infinity scarves is its versatility. You can also wear it as a shrug, through the arms and around the neck. You can also wear it more Beverly Hills chic by lacing one end through the other around the neck. There’s really an infinite amount of possible ways to wear this piece.

Jamie Buckle Satchel

Next, Zoe scored the Jamie Buckle Satchel from our friends at Handbag Heaven. Zoe is currently a working college student, so naturally she selected a handbag for a fashionista on the go that will accommodate her school necessities and transition nicely to a work setting. The Jamie Buckle Satchel has two front strap closures and turn lock claps to keep the contents of the bag secure. The two toned color block Tan/Olive handbag also has handy long shoulder strap, which gives a chic messenger bag look to it.

Fantasik Wedges

Last but certainly not least, Zoe went with the Fantasik High Heel Wedges in black courtesy of Shiekh Shoes. Judging by her video response, Zoe absolutely loves these ultra high platform wedges with color block heel. We love the edgy thick straps and sexy peep toe front. The Fantasik Wedges will add 5 ½ inches to your current height, so if you’re the kind of fashionista that loves to be super high like Zoe then Shiekh Shoes has what you’re looking for.

Using Bobbi Brown Cosmetics for Making Your Makeup

Makeup artists often mess up whatever cosmetic they buy especially if they are simply starting up, this was simply the case in my part. Having a complete kit is of course necessary and what I need was something that would work for anyone. I thought that buying the most expensive cosmetics was the deal but this was something that I have proven to be false. Buying the most expensive products out there isn’t the best at all despite paying for a high price. I soon discovered that Bobbi Brown cosmetics are the best and are also available but for the first ones I bought I had to do something about it.

But what a blessing in disguise it was when I realized that most of the expensive cosmetics I bought were un-wearable, I learned how to make them wearable. Tossing out the wrong cosmetics was not an option but being able to enhance skin tones made it all worthwhile. So why don’t you let me show you how to go around wrong cosmetics?

If you have bought the wrong shade, you don’t have to go crazy and throw them out.
For foundation that are too light or too pink then you can warm it up with deep bronzing powder or even gel. You can practice with your face and make use of what bronzer you have in your arsenal.
However, if the shade is just a bit slightly off then you can dust powder bronzer onto your cheeks, forehead, nose and chin then blend well. If in case that you require a deeper tone, I suggest to mix a small amount of the foundation into your palm with a drop of a gel bronzer.

When it comes to too dark foundations, it may be quite unsolvable but you can try to dilute the color by mixing it with a tint-less moisturizer in your hand before applying. If that didn’t work then you may just have to give it away or save it for the summer or it just may not work.

For blushes that are quite bright then learn how to layer properly. Apply a rather neutral one first then add a brighter color on top to give yourself just a little pop of color. On the other hand of blushes that are dull, do exactly the same thing as mentioned for blushes that are bright. Apply a less lively blush then a layer of a livelier one.
