Top 10 Favorite fashion items in 2010

Fashion is always changing and that is why we love it!  There is never a shortage of tips and tricks to help us look fresh and updated!

Here are our 10 favorite items that we used more or wore most often:

  • Mac Paint Pot (cream color called Painterly, put it on your lids and you make up will stay on all day!)

  • Hair volumizer/mouse (VO 5 is a great one that is cheap and works!)

  • a Vest (casual or fur vest) This one is a Windstopper by Gortex.

  • A wrap dress (great with boots in the winter or bare legged and peep toe heels in the summer from Nordstroms)

  • Grow you eyelashes (JJ tested nu Lash and it worked great!)

  • Boston Proper (great catalogue for inexpensive but good quality and fashionable basics, like this tank top)

  • A stretch belt (Suzi Roher, can you believe this belt has stretch in it! ) This brand is our favorite but you can find other versions that are less expensive.

  • Cashmere sweater dress  (Can also wear with dark tights and boots in winter and legging and flats in spring)
