How to Wear Skinny Jeans: One Pair of Jeans and Five Different Looks

It looks like skinnies are going to be with us for a while; they will not go out of style at least for couple of more seasons. Personally, I am not ready to get rid of my collection of skinny pants and jeans yet. Should they all of a sudden go out of style, I doubt I would easily give up wearing the skinnies. After all, being fashionable is not about following all the new trends that fashion world has to offer. It is up to us, fashionistas, to choose what we like and dislike about new fashion trends and stick to some trends that we absolutely love. This is how I feel about my skinny jeans and pants. Moreover, skinny jeans and pants go well with different style items and make your legs look skinnier and longer! Today I am going to present to you five ideas on how to wear skinny jeans

.

#1: Classy look for work

 On your dress down day at work you can create an office-like look with a pair of your skinny jeans. Actually, boot cuts will go for this kind of look as well – of course, no wrapped or beads-embellished jeans are allowed for work! Wear your skinnies with the same tone ankles boots to create “extra-long-legs-effect”. Add some color by wearing bright, attention-grabbing purse, and you get yourself a stylish, elegant outfit for a dress-down day at work.

#2: Relaxed look

 On one of those days, when all you want is just to put your jeans and comfy tee on, try something similar to this look. Any fashionista’s wardrobe should contain an oversize tee and a boyfriend jacket. Not that you are supposed to literally borrow a jacket from your boyfriend. It is just a style that is known for its relaxed fit. Flats are great for wearing with skinny jeans. And feel free to wear a very trendy purse, such as this snakeskin tote, to add some spice to the whole look. Some jewelry such as long necklace – even couple of them – would not hurt either.

#3: Romantic look.

 This kind of look is perfect for going to an exhibition, meeting at the nearest café with your girlfriends or going to a date (assuming you are not heading to a high-end restaurant). Sweater dresses are perfect for wearing with skinny jeans. Just add a bright scarf, a bag and pumps, and you get a very different look from the previous ones.

#4: Jazzy look

 This clean and simple look is full of elegancy and style. There is nothing extraordinary about the look – just flat shoes and a white long sleeved shirt. On the other hand, such accessories as tie necklace, manly watches and a hat make the look very interesting and funky. Personally, I love this look, and I believe that it may appeal to those of you who are not afraid of wearing such male clothing attributes as ties and hats.

#5: Dressy look

 What I really like about skinny jeans is that they are great for casual wearing as well as for dressy looks. If you combine your skinny jeans with silk top, they become a part of a dressy outfit. Of course, you need to add some accessories. In this particular set, the clutch is definitely an attention-grabber. A pair of suede pumps makes this outfit elegant and luxurious-looking.

I have presented to you several different ways of how to wear skinny jeans. I am pretty sure, every one of you can add more ideas on how to wear a pair of skinnies. For those of you, who prefer boot-cut to skinny jeans, these suggested ideas will work as well.

P.S: I just wanted to mention that if you fall in love with the pair of Helmut Lang Mid-rise skinny jeans presented in these sets, you can buy them online. They are currently on sale, and if you click on the jeans small icon below any of these sets, you can go directly to the website – with which I have affiliate relationship.

"Mehndi" an old age art

Mehendi, an age old art, has always been an integral part of functions, wedding ceremonies and religious events. Nowadays, it has become one of the best ways to adorn oneself and look alluring. Today, not just in India but even in western countries, one can find artists who exclusively work with henna, creating tattoos and intricate designs on the body. Certainly, mehendi art has come a long way from only being a part of social functions to becoming one of the most sought after beauty adornments. What's more, the wide range of designs, from Indian, Arabic, and African to contemporary patterns will surely leave you spoilt for choice. Although, most people know what mehendi is all about, very few people know how to apply it perfectly. If you are looking to try your hand at henna designing then it will be best if you learn not only how to apply it but also how to make a mehendi cone. Scroll down the write-up if you want to know the various aspects of mehendi application process.

Tips To Apply Henna

• It is very important to wash the skin thoroughly before applying the henna. Make sure that your skin is free from grease and dirt or else the stain won't last for long.
• After creating the design with the mehendi cone, dip a cotton swab in lemon juice and sugar syrup, and dab it gently over the pattern. This will make the stain darker and long lasting. Also, the lemon and sugar will prevent the paste from drying too quickly.
• Avoid using any kind of oils and creams on the skin before you apply Mehendi, as this will block the pores and make it harder for the stain to stick to the skin.
• Leave the design to sit for at least six to seven hours and then scrape off the dried paste with the help of your fingers or butter knife.
• To preserve the design for a longer duration, it's wise not to wet the stained area or wash and scrub it too often just after the application of mehandi.

How To Make Mehendi Cone

• Using mehendi cone is one of the easiest ways of applying henna on the skin. The cone comes filled with henna paste and has a tiny hole at the end of it through which the henna can be squeezed out gently. The cone is easily available at all the beauty stores.
• To use it, the cone is usually placed between the thumb and forefinger, and squeezed gently so that a thin line of mehendi oozes out and the design created. To prepare your own mehendi cone at home, all you need are a few things such as henna paste, plastic cover and cello tape.
• Cut the plastic sheet in to a square and keep it aside. Make sure the plastic sheet is not too light. It should be thick enough to be capable of holding the henna paste and light enough to be rolled.   
• The next step is to roll the plastic sheet into a cone or funnel shape. Make sure that the end of the cone is pointed sharp. Now, with the help of a cello tape, stick the side edges of the cone.
• Fill up to 3/4th of the cone with fresh henna paste using a small spoon. Avoid over filling it for the cone may burst or start leaking at the sides.
• After filling, twist the open end of the cone and seal tightly with a tape. Your cone is now ready to be used to create wonderful henna designs. To use the cone use a sharp scissor to cut the tip of the cone.

What Causes Dark Circles?

Dark under-eye Circles are commonly caused by heredity, but besides genetics, a number of factors can lead to these under-eye shadows. Like Poor Lifestyle that involves Prolonged Work/Study Hours, Disturbed Sleep Schedule, Medication, Smoking or Lack of Essential Nutrients in Diet that causes discoloration of under eye skin.
The other reason for dark circles could be excessive strain of the eyes due to activities such as sitting before a computer screen or watching too much television. If either of these falls into your daily routine, you should cut down on your time of staring at a screen. This will help the situation automatically. If you cannot help the situation, start making corrective changes so that you stop suffering from the unattractive problem of developing dark circles. Take a break every hour from sitting before a screen. This will automatically reduce the amount of stress your eyes are exposed to. If not possible, simply get up from the screen and take a short walk. Even a one minute break could help too!
