Here are a few fashion trends that I think actually make sense.
1. Recently there has been a wave of cosmetics available in pen & marker form. These include everything from eye liner to nail polish. Finally, I may be able to apply eye liner. I doubt it, but at least there’s a shot.
2. Mineral Glow & Mineral Booster. The first time I tried mineral makeup I just didn’t get what the big deal was. Then I learned to apply it correctly & I understood why people go crazy over it. It hides imperfections without feeling heavy. I really love the mineral booster, one of the tag lines I’ve seen for it is “photo shop for your face.” Finally!
3. Big purses. On “What not to Wear” they recommend these because they make your hips look smaller. Enough said.
4. I was having trouble defining exactly what style is in style right now & that’s a good thing. I learned from all those personalized books when I was a kid that we are all snowflakes. Why should we all dress the same or like the same things?
5. Enamel & resin jewelry. It’s pretty, it’s cheap, it’s colorful.
