1. BRUSH UP

Its the one step that usually gets forgotten, but its vitally important to ensure you achieve the perfect arch. Using an eyebrow brush to see where your natural arch is and this will guide you to where your stray hair are.

2. TWEEZE

Use a sharp, slanted pair of tweezers as they'll grab tiny hair without pinching your skin and pluck in a well lit room.

3. SHADE

Before you do anything sharpen your pencil! A blunt pencil will make your brows look messy, so make sure you've got a precise edge. Using light, short strokes, fill in your eyebrows working from the inner to outer corner.

4. SEAL

You've done the hard work, now you just need to make it last by sealing in the color. Sweep over with a transparent gel to control and tame your brow so that you don't have to touch up for the rest of the day.

Whether its summer or not, cracked or crusty feet can be really embarrassing. 

But no worries, you can have happy feet with just a little care. All you'll need is right here at home; a tub, warm water, salt, pumice stone, moisturiser and a pair of soft cotton socks.

Fill a tub with warm water and a handful of salt.
Keep feet soaking for about 20 minutes.
Remove from tub and genlty rub feet with the pumice stone.
Once done, rinse feet with warm water and pat dry.
Gently rub in the moisturiser over your feet.
Put on the cotton socks as it will help retain the moisturiser and prevent the feet from dryness.
If you do this at night, you could leave the socks on overnight.

Wake up to happy feet :)

There's nothing more feminine and romantic than a touch of lace. But one has to tread carefully: an inch too far one way and you're Fredrick's of Hollywood, an inch too far in the other direction and — BAM — you're starring in Downtown Abbey.
- Gabriel Bell 

Rightly said. 

Lace has been around for as long as, I don't know, forever? This trend has been all of boyish cuts and unexpected colors.

Bring lace back and opt for a lace collar like this.

Gorgeous lace alone can make any dress look WOW, no matter what style or length! Shown on the 2013 catwalks with abundance, and looking more luxurious than ever, it’s both traditional and ultra-feminine – perfect for every bride!

Blush is a medium tone of red-violet.

Soft, soothing and feminine, this shade can easily makes a statement. It adds personality by itself without being loud. This works perfectly on a mini, midi or maxi this breezy summer season. Pair it up with a seater or blazer and you have the most elegant ensemble     

According to J. Crew's head of women's design, Marissa Webb, blush acts as a nice bridge between intense colors such as pink, purple or red, in an outfit. "To me its almost a neutral," says Webb who also combines it with beige.
