Oooo so Grungy









Hello my glamorous friends , I hope you are all having a fabulous week so far . I love this purple lip colour from MUA . This lip tint really does add a grungy / edgy vibe to any outfit , its also an amazing autumn / winter shade too .   These boots adds an edgy vibe to the outfit too however , I wanted to mix it up a bit an add a classier vibe to this look . So I decided to add this black and gold clutch bag . I personally think this ties to look together and adds a subtle girly girl vibe too.

Style Solutions Sunday The Hourglass .

Hello glamorous friends and long no talk ! I have missed you so much ! The reason why I was gone for a long time was ,  I was overwhelmed with everything  that was happening to me . I had a lot on my plate and they a just kept on pilling up But,  now I am back on track and ready to blog again . Today is all the hourglass body shape .  


Description: When you have an hourglass shape, your shoulders and hips are about the same width and you have a well-defined waist.

Measurements for an Hourglass figure
Statistics say that this body figure is considered to be the ' perfect figure ' of 36/24/36 are what the hourglass ladies are about. The proof  can be larger or smaller, but by comparison the waist will always be around 9″ smaller than the bust giving that very voluptuous figure.
 Wedding gown suggestions for the Hourglass Type: Take advantage of your proportioned body and defined waistline by playing up an embellished style in bridal gown design. Fitted gowns will show off your curvy figure to your best advantage. The easiest way to accentuate your natural beauty with an hourglass body type is to make sure the gown hugs your smaller body parts.
Flattering Styles and necklines for a Hourglass Shaped Figure: Sheath, A-Line, Ball Gown, Dropped Waistline, Mermaid – One-Shoulder, Strapless and Scoop necklines will be extra flattering .
