Our Favorite Valentinos for Spring Weddings in 2021

Favorite Valentinos for Spring Weddings in 2021Whether you’re the bride, the maid of honor, or participating as a guest, you’ll need to make sure you have appropriate footwear. And, given that this aspect can make or break your wedding experience, you also need to choose something comfortable, that will help you dance your way through the night.

Therefore, we think a pair of Valentino shoes may be the best option for such an important and joyous occasion. They are well-designed, gorgeous, and will treat your feet with love and care. Moreover, the range is so wide that anyone can find the right pair of shoes for their needs. But since we’re talking about weddings, let’s have a look at some of the best designs that will work amazingly at events organized this year.

Shoes for the Bride

As the bride, you will be on your feet all night long, dancing, chatting with guests, and making sure everyone is having a good time. Therefore, your shoes must be accommodating and comfortable.

Of course, they must also fit the dress and look good, since you’ll be the center of attention. Still, you have options besides the classic high-heeled stiletto in white. For instance, Valentino has some beautiful ballerina flats that work nicely with floor-length dresses and may become your friends once the party starts (and the official pictures are over). However, if your dress is tea-length or shorter, you may want a pair of elegant heels that fit the dress and help elongate the legs. Luckily, this year’s offerings include a wide range of stilettos in different lengths and designs, so you can have your pick.

Shoes for the Maid of Honor

Since your job is to help the bride navigate the day smoothly, you may have an even tougher time. Not only will you have to look stunning, but you’ll also have to put out fires and run from place to place in order to make sure everything is going well.

So, while you prepare your wedding emergency kit, you may also want to prepare a second pair of shoes for when things calm down. Or, it may be enough to get a pair of block-heeled shoes from Valentino! These shoes are comfortable, easy to accessorize with an elegant dress, and quite in style nowadays.

If block heels are not your style or they don’t fit your dress, the new collection also has a beautiful strap heel design with covered stiletto heel with rubber injection (for extra comfort). They look great on your feet and the straps can accommodate even wide feet.

Shoes for Guests

Since you won’t be on your feet that much and you can always take a rest after a dancing session, your options are wider. Therefore, if you want to look fabulous, you can indulge for one night and wear a pair of high-heeled Valentinos with a pointed toe. They look amazing with both short and tea-length dresses and can easily be the star of your outfit.

If you’re going for something more comfortable but still elegant, we recommend their slingback heels. These shoes have an air of refined style that goes well with a beautiful dress that charms the world through its simplicity. In addition, as the heel is smaller, it will be less problematic to keep them on all night long.

Wrap Up

At the end of the day, all that matters is that you feel good in your outfit and role at the wedding. Luckily, there are plenty of cute shoes in a variety of designs, colors, and heel heights in the new Valentino collection so anyone can have their pick. So, don’t be hasty, especially if you’re buying for your big day!

Useful Tips for Taking Care of Your Rug

Useful Tips for Taking Care of Your RugBesides being elegant home decorations, rugs are also a form of investment, and you must take care of them to preserve their beauty. Cleaning a rug may seem a bit difficult. It’s heavy, dusty, and dirty at the same time. However, cleaning it does not always have to be too hard. Little did you know that it only needs serious effort and a bit of time. Maintaining a rug will not only keep it clean, but also increases its life expectancy. Your rug has the power to remain elegant and show its true beauty for many years to come.

To learn more about how to take care of your rug, here are some useful tips to keep your rugs elegant as possible.

Clean It Regularly

There are times that cleaning a rug needs professional help, but you can also contribute to the cleaning process yourself. According to our colleagues at Oriental Area Rug Cleaning New York, you should vacuum your rug regularly. It will eliminate any dirt and dust trapped inside the fibers. Plus, it will also remove allergens.

Rotate It Once a Year

Rug quality deteriorates over time due to the sunlight and the amount of foot traffic it takes. However, it is your job to ensure that the wear is perfectly even. If not, your rug will look uneven, run down and messy. To prevent that from happening, most experts recommend you rotate the rug once or twice a year to ensure that the wear is not in just one area only.

Useful Tips for Taking Care of Your Rug

Clean Immediately

If you accidentally spill something on your rug, even if it’s just a small amount of juice or any liquid, or your visitor spills their coffee or tea, you need to clean it right away. Depending on what type of liquid was spilled, there are different cleaning styles you could definitely use. You may use a towel to dry off the spill. Then use a mild soap with warm water to remove the stain and clean it. If the stain can’t be removed on the spot, it is best to bring it to a professional cleaning service for help.

Do Not Apply DIY Tips

Thorough cleaning of a rug is best handled by professionals because they have the right tools and knowledge to get it properly cleaned. It may be tempting to apply different cleaning hacks you find online, but that can do more harm than good. It can damage the fibers in your rug. Avoid using any chemicals or even natural cleaning solutions that you are not sure of to avoid causing any damage to your precious rug.

Keep your rugs in perfect condition. Follow these useful tips if you want your rug to maintain its beauty for many years to come. If you are not sure how to clean it, ask for professional help immediately and avoid doing any online hack as it can ruin the quality of your rug, and it is the last thing anyone wants to happen with their precious rugs.

How To Trim Your Hair Like A Pro

How To Trim Your Hair Like A ProCan’t go to the salon and have a haircut?  Well, don’t fret because you can trim your hair at home. Even if you’re unsure how to do it, you can do so with a little practice and more knowledge. If you want to have a trim that looks professional, then read on.

Here are some tips on how to trim your hair like a pro:

  1. Use The Right Tools

You may think that any scissors will do, but that’s not the case. Don’t use kitchen scissors or scissors that aren’t sharp enough. They’ll only make crooked lines, which may be hard to fix, and you may end up with frayed and sloppy ends. But, with sharp shears, you can easily make clean edges and lines.

Aside from scissors, you must also use a wide-toothed combed as it can help when trimming your bangs. This can keep your strands in place while cutting your hair. Also, have clips or scrunchies to make sections easily.

For curly hair, you may want to use a curling hair product like shampoo and conditioner to wash your hair. Then, let it dry before cutting because curly hair is less fluffy and longer when it’s wet.

  1. Smooth Your Hair

After having all your equipment, you should first smooth your hair. As mentioned, you can wash your hair first before drying and smoothing it, especially for curly hair. You can cut it moisturized or dry.

Working with moisturized, damp hair allows you to get a clean cut. Moisturizers can help avoid split ends and breakage when your hair is being cut. Also, damp hair allows your hair to be smoothed easily. If you prefer dry hair, then get it tangle-free so you can control your hair quickly.

  1. Create A Guide

To avoid risking a major mishap, which can lead to a drastic haircut, you must have a guide. Do this by making sections and trimming hair little by little. Avoid immediately cutting to the length you want to trim, but work your way up by starting in small increments. If you cut too much, you can’t go back and repair it. But if you trim small, you can always cut more hair.

You may also want to start at the very front in small sections, like one or two inches when spread between your fingers. Doing this will guide you because you’ll know where your hair lands. Using clips will help you with this because it can help hold any stray sections.

How To Trim Your Hair Like A Pro
4. Time To Cut

Depending on your hair type, you can follow these techniques:

  • Straight Hair: Hold scissors horizontally to get a sharp, clean line by trimming the ends of your hair. As mentioned, cut in small sections.
  • Wavy Hair: If you have long layers, brush your hair up, then trim them carefully. Similar to straight hair, trim the ends of your wavy hair only and avoid holding each section too tight.
  • Curly Hair: You may want to use a tri-fold mirror when cutting curls. For square shapes, side to side and top to bottom may be the best. For triangular shapes, hold the hair towards the back of your head when cutting. On the other hand, you should hold round shapes forward before cutting them.

Conclusion

Cutting your hair at home is quite hard at first. However, you can get through this if you’ve read the guide above. You might even make it look like a professional cut that can complement your fashion look without spending too much. That’s why you must use the right shears, then smooth your hair before starting to trim. Also, doing sections will help you cut your hair more easily.

Wedding Day Ready: 10 Items for Your Bridesmaid Emergency Kit

Wedding Day Ready: 10 Items for Your Bridesmaid Emergency Kit

Your dearest friend or relative has asked you to be a bridesmaid. And now, you’re in the midst of helping to coordinate a tediously scheduled event, complete with matching bridesmaids’ ensembles, planned bridal showers and a bachelorette party. However, more importantly, a bridesmaid is there to keep the bride calm and collected on her big day. A wedding day stirs up lots of emotions, which can trigger accidents and send the bride into a worry or even a bridezilla-like frenzy.

Luckily, there are many ways to solve unexpected problems that arise while also supporting her and the other bridesmaids as well. And one of these helpful ways is packing a bridesmaid emergency kit. Think of it as a survival kit, but with dress-saving and cosmetic-preserving items that are as handy as a multi-tool Swiss Army knife. Ready to impress the bride and fellow maids as a first-time bridesmaid? While there are many convenient everyday items you pack in a purse that come to mind, there are probably some things you haven’t even considered. Here are 10 items you need to pack in your bridesmaid emergency kit.

1. Teeth Whitening Pen

Before you help the bride on her big day, invest in an at-home teeth whitening kit to get sparkling teeth that will look good in group photos. However, once you set off for a destination wedding or to the local chapel, you’ll need a more compact option. A better on-the-go alternative is a teeth whitening pen, designed to fit directly in a small handbag or even in a pocket. Apply the whitening serum before photos and keep wine and coffee from staining during rehearsal dinner and beyond! Small stain eraser tins are also the perfect size to fit into small clutches.

2. Band-Aids

Brides ask a lot of their bridesmaids. From wearing coordinated dresses to taking on wedding day tasks, we want to support our best friend or family member so their day goes without a hitch. And heels are just one of these requests and ways to show support (even if the shoe doesn’t).

While they make your outfit look cute, heels can be a real pain, especially after a day of trailing the bride and a night of dancing. So do yourself and other bridesmaids a favor and carry some band-aids and blister protection spray to keep the party going. No bridesmaid wishes to wind up with a blister and hop around or lay low the rest of the wedding.

3. Spray-On Deodorant

Unlike the roll-on or stick variety, spray-on deodorant prevents smudges on dresses. It may also prevent smudges on guests’ dresses as you give a big hug. But aside from visible oopsie-daisies, spray-on deodorant is also a more sanitary option when you need to pass it around. In summer or winter weddings, you’re going to break a sweat, so be sure to pack your bridesmaid emergency kit with spray-on deodorant.

4. Baby Powder

Baby powder is another essential to carry in your bridesmaid emergency kit. Baby powder has many uses, but when it comes to wedding days in particular, it can be a lifesaver. It can keep your armpits and feet feeling dry and fresh. It can also remove grease stains and make your hair appear less oily.

5. Snacks

On the wedding day, your goal is to accompany the bride. And trust us when we say, you’ll be so busy that you may forget to eat! Instead of getting hungry or starting a post-nuptial cocktail hour on an empty stomach, be sure to pack snacks to give you and other bridesmaids the energy boost you need. Stick with protein bars and some nuts to hold yourself over until the hors d’oeuvres are passed around.

6. Vitamin C Boost

Since stress weakens the immune system, add a pack or two of Vitamin C-packed boosters you can sprinkle in a glass of water. It will make you feel 100 percent better tomorrow and the next day, even after a long night of celebrations.

7. Safety Pins and Fashion Tape

Safety pins and fashion tape take up so little room in a bridesmaid emergency kit that you’d be a fool not to bring them! Unexpected rips or tears in garments – from bras to gowns – can ruin an ensemble. Instead of being caught empty-handed, you can use these to make small alterations. Double-sided fashion tape can even help support the girls, avoiding a wardrobe malfunction.

8. Stain Remover Stick

As convenient as a teeth whitening pen, a stain remover stick is excellent for touching up clothes. If you drop something on a dress, simply apply the stain remover and you’ll be good as new.

9. Straws

Professional makeup will have the entire bride tribe looking their best. But when it comes to lipstick, you can keep it protected and on your lips longer with a straw. Pack a reusable straw that you can use all day and night to ensure your carefully applied lipstick doesn’t smear on cups or glasses as you stay hydrated throughout the day.

10. Phone Chargers

Phone chargers are one of those necessary items you might need in your bridesmaid emergency kit. Between helping the bride coordinate with vendors to snapping selfies for memories, your phone’s battery is sure to fade. And when it does, you’ll need to recharge so you can continue the celebrations.

A Handy Bridesmaid Emergency Kit

Think beyond the list above and you’ll come up with many other items. A comb and bobby pins are always useful. Lotion can keep your skin looking silky smooth. More than likely, you’ll have some of the basics already, but start accumulating items for your bridesmaid emergency kit early on and adding to it as you think of new things. Whether you choose to store these items in a fanny pack or tote bag is entirely up to you, so long as it’s glued to your side the entire wedding day.

That way, you’ll be the most prepared bridesmaid, ready to handle the unexpected and save the bride’s big day.

Why You Should Wear Labradorite

Why You Should Wear LabradoriteLabradorite is an extremely popular gemstone. It can come in various colors like blue, green, purple, pink, and, even green-blue. It’s beautiful and comfortable to wear, that’s why it’s becoming more popular these days.

This particular stone is mined from the same deposits of a high-quality stone like diamond. This gemstone is naturally lustrous and beautiful, though some people claim it can be prone to smearing. Because of this, there are certain conditions that will help to keep your jewelry looking great. The first thing you need to know when trying to understand how to care for this stone is that you should never expose it to direct sunlight. This will cause the gemstone to become duller.

Due to its color, it is also sensitive to low acidity levels. So, if you happen to own one, make sure that you don’t keep your jewelry in a humid area like your bathroom. It would be best if you store it away from moisture.

History

There is a huge variety of gemstones to choose from and you can look for a gemstone guide on the Internet, but here are some important aspects to think of when choosing one. The most important part of any gemstone is the cut. If you are not familiar with the cut of a gemstone then you can ask your local jeweler for a rough cut. You should also ask for a sample of the stones you are considering to buy so you can get an idea of how they will look on your ring, necklace, or any other piece of jewelry. Some other popular stones besides labradorite, are amethyst, sapphire, emerald, jade, etc.

For centuries, gemstone jewelry has been a sign of wealth and status. The word ‘precious’ is originally referred to the four big four gemstones: rubies, diamonds, sapphire, and emeralds. These gemstones commanded high prices because of their exquisite beauty, color, and uniqueness. They make up the most beautiful rings, necklaces, and bracelets.

Similar to the precious gemstones mentioned, the labradorite gemstone is also popular in the jewelry industry. The majority of labradorite jewelry pieces are created from a combination of different minerals and metals. Some pieces are made from quartz, while others are made from quartz mixed with different minerals. The most popular variety of labradorite stone is the one made of quartz. This variety is softer than the other types. Another important aspect of this stone is that even the thinnest of pieces can still be strong enough to survive wear and tear.

Why You Should Wear Labradorite

Benefits
Even though there are many advantages of labradorite, listed below are some of the main ones:

  • Labradorite jewelry helps reduce stress and anxiety, therefore helping you improve your mood and staying calm.
  • Labradorite has also been known to strengthen the immune system of the body and boost metabolism. These attributes might be great to help burn fats and carbs, and is also good for weight loss.
  • Other benefits of wearing this jewelry include improving eyesight and maintaining the health of the central nervous system.
  • If you’re struggling from intense and painful menstruation, this stone will also help lower the pain. In addition, it helps with balancing hormones.
  • These labradorite stones also have the ability to treat several types of diseases, such as rheumatism and bronchitis. In addition, the stone helps in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases like coronary heart disease, stroke and lowers blood pressure.
  • When it comes to mental clarity, labradorite can help you chase away the brain fog you may be experiencing hence making you more conscious and concentrated.

It should be noted that although labradorite can help you in some healing processes, it doesn’t replace other relevant medical and healthcare prescriptions. It’s important for a person to wear the labradorite jewelry at all times if he wants to enjoy these healing benefits. However, always remember that some of these labradorite stones are extremely rare and the chances of it reacting badly with other chemicals are high.

Conclusion

The best thing about labradorite jewelry is that it has many different benefits and thus one can use it for many purposes. For instance, one can wear it as an accessory. There are many websites online that offer an assortment of labradorite stones for sale. One just needs to visit one of these websites and then go through the options available to find the right pieces of jewelry for his or her desired purpose.

The healing benefits from wearing labradorite stones are numerous. It is worth spending a bit of money to buy this stone rather than spending it on another piece of jewelry that is less effective.

 

How to Choose the Right Wig to Complete Your Look

How to Choose the Right Wig to Complete Your LookWigs are fashionable, stylish, and convenient. However, there is an art to choosing the right wig to complete your look. Randomly picking a wig without taking into consideration certain factors may result in disappointment, discomfort, and a blow to your confidence.

To ensure the perfect fit, here are some great tips on how to choose the right wig to complete your look.

  1. Measure Wig Size

A wig needs to fit comfortably, but shouldn’t be too snug. If a wig is too tight you can experience a headache, or part of your natural hair may be visible. If the wig is too loose, it can fall off and may not appear natural when worn. You need to measure the circumference of your head before you purchase a quality wig from reliable and high-quality providers such as Keswigs.

To get the right size, you must measure from your hairline, behind your ear, neck and your other ear then back to your frontline. This measurement will guide you in purchasing the right wig size and avoid issues caused by incorrect sizes.

  1. Pick A Natural Color

If you’re new to wearing a wig, it’s advisable that you first get comfortable with wearing one before exploring different colors. You can get a wig that’s closest to your hair color. Once you’re more confident about wearing one, you can then explore other colors that express your personal style. You can start by purchasing 2 or 3 different colors to see which one you’re most comfortable with.

  1. Consider Your Outfit

Your outfits may sometimes determine the type of wig that you purchase. For instance, if your outfits are mostly made from cotton material, you might not want to purchase wig braids that are burnt at the end of the braids. The burnt braid ends catch on the material and the constant friction can tear at the material. This means that your wig will have cotton particles and appear less appealing and worn out.

  1. Consider The Occasion

The type of wig that you wear should complement the setting, event, or occasion that you’re attending. For example, if you work in a corporate setting, a bright pink wig might be the best choice. However, if you’re an artist at an agency, this may be acceptable. The dress code will determine the type of wig that will complete your look in that context.

How to Choose the Right Wig to Complete Your Look

  1. Think About The Weather

If you live in areas where temperatures sky-rocket during the summer months, your general wardrobe is determined by the weather. This is also true for your wig. If you wear a long and bulky wig in soaring temperatures, you’ll be tempted to remove it during the day. You may sweat profusely and need to freely scratch your scalp without the hindrance of the wig. You may also be tempted to tie the wig up so that it’s away from your shoulders and neck for fresh air. However, not all wigs are designed to be tied up in a bun. Trying to do so may compromise the look and texture of your wig.

  1. Choose Between Synthetic Or Human Hair

When choosing your wig, you should consider whether you can maintain human hair if you’re going for the natural look. Maintaining wig made from human hair means regularly moisturizing it, straightening or curling, misting, and washing regularly. The advantage of human hair is that it has a long shelf-life, if maintained properly.

A synthetic wig also requires maintenance such as brushing and combing to remove dust and foreign particles. Synthetic hair, however, can’t have withstand heat as it will burn. It also can’t be washed as thoroughly and regularly as a wig made of human hair. These are some of the factors you will need to consider when choosing the right wig to complete your look.

  1. Your Preferences

Just like hairstyles, some types of wigs suit specific face shapes and body sizes than others. However, you don’t need to be restricted by these arbitrary rules. There’s nothing wrong with choosing and wearing a wig that suits your preferences. Try on different types of wigs until you find one that makes you feel confident and comfortable. Remember, what may look right on one person might not be best choice for another.

Conclusion

Choosing the right wig requires trying out different options until you find the one best suits your needs. Make sure that you’re purchasing wigs that fit your head comfortably. A great starting point is to choose wig colors that resemble your natural hair, and then gradually experiment. You also have to consider your outfit, the setting, weather, type of hair, and your personal preferences. Above all, remember that there is no one size fits all when it comes to fashion.

How To Look Flawless When Wearing A Body Suit

How To Look Flawless When Wearing A Body Suit

For ages, bodysuits have been worn by women. However, the bodysuit outfit, which is endorsed by the Kardashian sisters, has now become mainstream.

Bodysuits are versatile and comfortable to wear. You can wear them with high-waisted jeans, skirts, or layer them with formal pantsuits. Bodysuits are designed to flatter your curves and provide a seamless tuck to your pants or skirts. Bodysuits also work well for all body types and can be worn with formal as well as casual outfits.

Here are some tips to look flawless when wearing a bodysuit:

Choose Your Underwear Correctly

Wearing formfitting clothes can look ultra-glam and chic. It’s also a great way to flatter your body’s curves. However, your choice of underwear can make or break your look.

A well-fitted, seamless knix will make your back look sleek and help you avoid panty lines. Since panty lines can disrupt the seamless look of your form-fitting trousers or skirt, make sure to choose the right underwear, like thongs or seamless panties, when you wear a body suit.

Make Sure That It Fits Well

To get a flawless look when wearing a bodysuit, make sure that your bodysuit fits you perfectly.

While buying, it’s essential to check the length of the bodysuit. A bodysuit that’s too short for you can be uncomfortable. On the other hand, something that’s big for you can make your entire look shabby. To ensure that you pick the right size, try it on before buying. A well-fitted bodysuit should be comfortable when you sit down, too.

The bustline of your body should be snug-fitting and not look stretched over. Finally, make sure to check the back. A bodysuit that’s too tight for you can cause a visible panty line, which can spoil your entire look.

Style Them with Casuals

Bodysuits can be styled easily with jeans and skirts. Pairing a pair of skinny jeans or high-waisted jeans with a snug bodysuit has been a popular trend once it was endorsed by celebrities, like Kylie Jenner, for a while.

Wearing them with a pair of high-waisted jeans can help you create a neat look without too much tucking to do. To wear a bodysuit with a pair of skinny jeans, choose something that has a delicate, lace neckline that can serve as a top.

Creating a balanced look while wearing a skirt can be tough. For styling your skirt that goes with its high-waist, you have to find a crop top or something that’s tucked in, which may not always work well. However, pairing a skirt with a bodysuit is easy since the bodysuit is seamlessly tucked–a higher waist skirt fits perfectly with the overall look.

Style Them With Formals 

For a sleek, stylish look, pair your bodysuit with your work outfits. From using your bodysuit for a layered pant-suit look or wearing it with a sleek pencil skirt, bodysuits can be styled in several ways to create a formal, work mode look.  For a smart formal look, pair your bodysuit with a sleek blazer and formfitting trousers.

During colder months, style your work look by layering your bodysuit with elegant coats or jackets and trousers.

How To Look Flawless When Wearing A Body Suit

Wear It As Lingerie

Wearing lingerie as an outerwear has been a trend for a while now. However, delicate lace bodysuits are perfect to wear as lingerie under low cut tops, plunging neckline, and off slouchy sweaters.

Bodysuits can also be worn as lingerie under sheer gowns and tops. To spruce up your plain shirt and jeans look, wear a delicate, lace bodysuit under a half-unbuttoned shirt.

Conclusion

Bodysuits are a trend that’s here to stay for a while. Other than being comfortable and versatile, a bodysuit can flatter your curves, define your body’s shape, and make your body look firm. However, before you buy a bodysuit, make sure to check if it’s the right size, material, and fits you perfectly. This is because an ill-fitted bodysuit can break your entire look.

Due to their versatility, you can pair them with skinny jeans or boyfriend jeans for a casual look. For a formal look, you can also layer them under a pantsuit. For a chic-elegant look, bodysuits are ideal for pairing them with skirts. You can also wear them as lingerie under sheer tops. Wearing them under plunging necklines can create a stylish look, too. Finally, there are several ways you can style your bodysuit for a flawless, trendy look.

This stylish piece of clothing is something that can be worn in all seasons and can be styled perfectly as an elegant outerwear. It’ll also remain a timeless piece of lingerie.
