Beauty Report 101: How To Get The Look

Its Fall, well not officially especially not with this humid climate it isn't. Well we at The Chic-Report would like to think so since in a few hours designers and makeup guru's will be revealing the "it" fashion and beauty trends for the Spring on the runways of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Move over summer it's time to give Fall its reign. Stylistically speaking, we're all looking for ways incorporate our bright summer staples into the fall, and frugal shoppers would tell you that your face could help you acquire the look du jour. Perhaps you're the Kelly Cutrone of fashion, it's always all black everything or dark on dark ensembles, that is quite okay because we have a tip that will work for you.  There is something about a bright lip and a soft eye that I can't seem to get enough of. Perhaps its the play on a vibrant hue contrasting neatly brisked lashes? Among the many beauty trends this fall, the soft flirtatious pink lip has some how revamped and this time better than ever. The Hills star Lo Bosworth walked the red carpet at the 2010 Primetime Emmy Awards with a gorgeous statement lip. Read on and learn how to get Lo's look...

Fall Trend: Leopard Print

Who would ever thought that this animal inspired trend would resurrect from the pits of the tragic spring/ summer stampede of bold , digital, mixed, flourished prints and patterns to a must have trendy piece this fall?  With a hint of jungle fever and a tint of tan, camel and mud hues designers tapped into their animal instincts through an array of designs and texture. Whether it is the faux wildlife fur, classic spotted silhouettes or a menagerie inspired jewels you cannot go wrong with animal print this season. Chic savvy celebs and guru risk takers Rihanna and Willow Smith made this trend red carpet as well as cat walk meets sidewalk cool. Oh! And who said you can’t wear animal on animal? Follow their lead, if you are in the mood to layer a zebra on a tiger pattern then go for it. The Chic-Report recommends atleast one solid staple or embellished piece to execute an edgy flawless look. This fall Dolce and Gabbana, Mochsinco and Balmain breathed life into the hottest animal inspired separates. Go for the wild!

Style Inspiration for Labor Day Weekend.

We're approaching another long holiday weekend. Another official stamp that the days of summer are slowly winding down and with back to school, work and all other "to-do's", this may be the last time we get to wear a fully fledged summer outfit. After all we can still mix our summer pieces with a few fall stamples. Sanaa Lathan (one of my favorite actresses by the way) was spotted in LA and although she's wearing the simplest pieces they're also cute and comfortable and ofcourse on trend.

September Issues 2.0

The September Issue... no, not the movie. Although I really enjoyed this Vogue and Anna Wintour documentary and embraced the wit of Grace Coddington, I'm talking about the issues, THE September issues. It's a new year in the fashion world and if that's not a valid excuse to why magazines are so damn bulky and full of excitment then I don't know what is. A few weeks ago gigantic magazine issues hit the newstands and for those lucky enough to have a subscription,your mail box. It's like an early Christmas present but this one got a little extra attention. Caressing the pages for no slips, creases or tears may sound as if I'm taking it way too far but you have no idea. Let's not talk about the anticipation to find out which celebrity is covering the biggest issue of the year. High end ads, trends, interviews, beauty, fashion, lifestyle, politics, home decor never looked so good. So now that October issues are about to hit the stands I would love to know what was your favorite September magazine Issue. I really enjoyed the Vogue's , Nylon and ofcourse Marie Claire. I would love to hear from you guys....

Among many other gowns strolling down the red carpet at the Primetime Emmy Awards 2010 The Chic-Report spotted the ever reinventing "dipped in glitter" trend. That's right shimmery gowns were a hit this evening and I'm especially in love with Anna Paquin's Alexander McQueens.

Emmy Awards Fashion: White Dresses

Although the Oscars have passed the Emmy Awards 2010 gave celebrities and fashionistas alike a haute taste of  one Hollywood's most gorgeous night outs. While the good, the bad and the ugly yes there were those too came out to celebrate tv's big night we can't escape the breathe taking gowns and show stopping stilettos parading the red carpet rolled outside the Staples Center in Los Angeles California. A big trend this season at the 2010 Emmy's were white classic dresses; embellished, laced, draped and bold accessories gave these choices a stamp of approval.

Entertainment: Keri Hilson's New Music

Keri Hilson revamps her image after a successful debut record "In A Perfect World" with hits like "Knock You Down" ft Kanye West, "Energy" and "Turning Me On" ft Lil Wayne. Not only is she the new blondie on the block, she's back with a new single "Breaking Point" so I'm definitely assuming that an album is in the works for her. The singer/ song writer is known for penning witty lyrics and bringing them to fruition with her signature up beat tempo and impeccable play on words. Let's see what's next for Miss Keri Baby?

What do you think of the new single?

RED CARPET CHIC: Drew Barrymore, Angela Simmons and Olivia Palermo.

The red carpets around NYC and LA has been a buzz for the past few weeks. Movie premiers, show screenings and style events are a few of the reasons the stars, fashionistas, and socialites all come out looking effortlessly chic for the cameras. Angela Simmons supported the cast of "Lottery Ticket" in Herve Ledger, Olivia Palermo looked casual and cute in a floral mini, red off shoulder tunic and are those flat's on her feet? Cute nonetheless at ABC's Big C screening. Drew Barrymore attended the Nylon Magazine/ Express event in a geometric patterned sequined dress. Stylistically speaking pumps, cute comfortable flats and little to no accessories is probably the way to go .

A Presidential Wedding

Chelsea Clinton tied the knots this weekend in a beautiful gown by the bridal extrodinaire Vera Wang. She walked down the isle in an off white tube dress with an embellished waste line and excessive ruffles to the bottom. Along with the oh-so-stunning dress was the traditional long vail and her former presidental paps  accompanied her down the isle. She looks gorgeous in this dress, not too dramatic, but Chelsea made sure there was a touch of couture . The Chic Report approves. Congrats Chelsea...
