Want to look bright and ready for a great day, why not try putting on bright lipstick for that no fuss makeup look.  Bright lipstick gives you a bold look which will complete your makeup without having to put on too much eye shadow or bright eyeliner because bright lipstick stands out on its own.

Choose a bright lipstick that complements your skin tone or go bold and contrast it with your color. When applying the bright lipstick fill your entire lip with lip liner so that your lipstick will last longer and stop it from feathering outward. Your lip liner should be similar to your lipstick shade so that it will not look off. Better still you can choose a nude lip liner to maintain the bright lipstick's color. Be adventurous and  choose a bright lip liner which will complement or alter the shade of the bright lipstick.

According to Wikipedia Afro, sometimes shortened to 'fro and also known as a "natural", is a hairstyle worn naturally by people with lengthy kinky hair texture or specifically styled in such a fashion by individuals with naturally curly or straight hair. The hairstyle is created by combing the hair away from the scalp, allowing the hair to extend out from the head in a large, rounded shape, much like a halo, cloud or ball.

In persons with naturally curly or straight hair, the hairstyle is typically created with the help of creams, gels or other solidifying liquids to hold the hair in place. Particularly popular in the African-American community of the late 1960s, the hairstyle is often shaped and maintained with the assistance of a wide-toothed comb colloquially known as an afro pick.

The style was popular in the 80’s but then it began coming back but with different variations. Both men and women can rock the afro Hairstyle as it is simple to maintain and keep. All you need is your natural hairs and let it grow out. It is mostly common for Africans since their hair is frizzy and natural. Styling is just combing it out or you can put a band at the front to make it different. Would you wear an Afro hairstyle today?

Dress designed by Charles Frederick Worth for Elisabeth of Austria painted byFranz Xaver Winterhalter

The history of fashion design refers to the development of the fashion industry which designs clothing and accessories. Fashion design is the art of the application of design and aesthetics or natural beauty to clothing and accessories. The modern fashion industry, based around firms or fashion houses run by individuals usually male designers, started in the 19th century with Charles Frederick Worth who was the first designer to have his label sewn into the garments that he created
•             Couture beginnings
The first fashion designer who was not merely a dressmaker was Charles Frederick Worth (1826–1895). Before the former draper set up his maison de couture (fashion house) in Paris, clothing design and creation was handled by largely anonymous tailors and seamstresses, and high fashion descended from styles worn at royal courts. Worth's success was such that he was able to dictate to his customers what they should wear.
•             Early twentieth century
Throughout the early 20th century, practically all high fashion originated in Paris and to a lesser extent London. Fashion magazines from other countries sent editors to the Paris fashion shows. Department stores sent buyers to the Paris shows, where they purchased garments to copy (and openly stole the style lines and trim details of others). Both made-to-measure salons and ready-to-wear departments featured the latest Paris trends, adapted to the stores' assumptions about the lifestyles and pocket books of their targeted customers.

Robin Thicke and Paula Patton are separating after nearly nine years of marriage. "We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time," the couple said in a joint statement to People magazine Monday (Feb. 24). The two married in June 2005 and welcomed their son, Julian, in 2010. News of the split comes after Thicke was photographed getting close to women other than his wife. In September, a socialite claimed she kissed the "Blurred Lines" singer after meeting at a VMAs after-party at 1Oak. In January, he was seen "dirty dancing" with a woman in Paris, FishWrapper reported.

Thicke, 36, and Patton, 38, met when they were just teenagers. “I knew she was special the night I met her. I was only 14, but she was already the most special girl," he told Star magazine in September. “As a relationship progresses, you fall in love again in so many deeper ways. You realize that you need each other and you can’t live without each other." That same month, the actress gushed about her marriage during an interview with YourTango. "He loves me so much and the feeling is mutual," she said. "The best is when you love someone deeply and those feelings are equally returned. Also, Robin is really there for me. When times are good or bad or sad or happy or boring, just having somebody by your side to help you through means everything. I know I can count on him standing right next to me always."
Even though they have split here are some of their fashionable moments
