To infinity...and beyond!

These are a bit expensive, but try Always Infinity Regular pads for great coverage. They're $9.99 for 36, but they are made with Infinicel, an absorbent material which is super-thin and can hold 10x its weight. Wings ensure less mess, and microdots channel fluid deep into the pad so you don't feel weird. The form-fitting channels and soft cover sheet helps you be discrete, comfortable, and protect against leaks. They are even designed to be wider in the back.

Forever 21

Want party hair for less? Just add a cute headband! This Forever 21 Feather Headband that I found has bright pink feathers to get that party started. Just $7, it keeps your hair out of your face and can spice up any bad hair day (believe me, I've had my share of them). I never thought feathers would be in, but there ya go (see title link)!

Multi-functional makeup!?

E.l.f. All Over Color Stick is an amazing resource that you can wear to have amazing eyes, lips, or face! It gives you a healthy glow, and is simultaneously soothing and conditioning your skin during wear. You'll look fresh all day, especially in the corners of your eyes with that little sparkle. For just $1, what's NOT to love (see title link). The Toasted color is the best, smelling like sugar orange!

Relaxed glam

Alicia Keys always has amazing hair, but this look for the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards is quick and simple. Just use a flat iron or hot comb to get her sleekness and back-comb the top half to really achieve her amazing volume. After securing, you're ready for the red carpet (see title link)! Relaxed hair never looked so simply sophisticated.

John Frieda knows best

Prayer in a bottle? That's exactly what John Frieda Luxurious Volume Always Stylish Gel-Creme seems like. For just $5.49 (on sale from $7 now!), you get an instantly liquefying product which gives you both control and touchable-ness! It reportedly focuses on individual strands to really get that lift, building fullness at the roots and thickening your follicles. You'll have amazing body and volume (see title link). Use it to give your hair some grip so your style doesn't loosen or slide out. Just a dollop is needed when your hair is damp. Blow-drying afterwards will give it that extra texture that makes it truly gorgeous!

'Cause hair's a party

Pantene Pro-V Full & Thick Extra Fullness Gel is an easy, $4 way of keeping your hair in a certain style. Try braiding 1-inch sections of you hair down the lengths, secure with an elastic, and then tuck them behind your ears before securely pinning them. You'll look so unique and glamorous that the party will just come to you (see title link). The Maximum Hold keeps your hair in place, and the Pro-Vitamin formula is healthy, too. No stickiness is guaranteed, and it promises to withstand the highest humidity, while adding some extra fullness and shine to make your locks look just lovely.

Edgy is in


Here's another amazing staple for your wardrobe: a KRMA Jade Leather Jacket. Motorcycle jackets are the raging new thing and are here to stay. Here's Nina Dobrev modeling the look at the Cinema Society's Screening of 500 Days of Summer. Retailing at $650, the soft coat will get you noticed with the gathered detail at the sleeves and back yoke. The front zipper is convenient, and there are snaps at the stand collar and hem for extra security. Just remember that they're 3/4 sleeves so they're not designed for the dead of winter. But hey, 100% leather is 100% leather, right (see title link)?

GaGa for this dress

This dress from Bernard Chandran is to die for. Lady Gaga even wore this piece from the Malaysian designer's Spring/Summer 2009 collection for last year's Brit Awards in London. The flashy pink color is absolutely radiant and the cut is as unique as it gets, managing to give plenty of waist space without taking away from the curves. It's couture, but I'll give it a thumbs up! If you can buy it, shell out the cash (see title link)!

Streets Ahead

Streets Ahead makes amazing designer belts. I found this bright red high-waisted belt that's wide-width and has a flower buckle. Very Taylor Swift-esque with a designer label attached (see title link). They're expensive, but totally unique.

(Bur)berry is in for fall

Gotta love some designer wonderfulness. I LOVE this Burberry dress from the Spring 2010 Ready-to-Wear collection. Emma Watson modeled the look at the runway show in September, and that gold version is absolutely fabulous. You can't buy online so I don't know the price, but you can visit stores and check it out for yourself (see title link).
