Street Fashion

I just love Ruffles this season. Not an overdose since they make you look super-girly, but a little peek adds something extra to your outfit. You can be glam, bohemian, or preppy depending how you wear it (see title link). The street way is best!

Love Crimes

You don't want to be "that girl" spying or flirting or lying about anything to your boyfriend. We all make mistakes, but love crimes shouldn't be one of them (see title link).

Strong hair

If you want strong hair, try sweet orange in a natural spray that adds volume and hold. Tresemme Naturals Finishing Spray contains aloe vera and avocado to moisturize your hair and is even non-aerosol. It's extremely lightweight so you don't feel made up, and the extracts are all organic. Humidity-resistant and dye free, it helps your hair get that natural shine. It's available online for $5.49 (see title link), but I found it at the drugstore for $4.

Shorts

Put a sexy twist on shorts by trying the Jonesy Pleat Shorts, $72 in "Sand." They're perfect for string, with the most sophisticated front pleating. The side ties are a unique touch.

Eyeshadow

Urban Decay Stardust in Griffith is a unique, bright eyeshadow that is fun and makes any eye color pop. It doesn't come cheap at $20, but it's undoubtedly effective (see title link).

Interns

Have a wild internship you want to share? Tell your story now (see title link). One girl even interned for Tyra Banks!

Clear Skin

Clearasil Ultra Overnight Serum is great for your skin to fix redness and pimple size while you sleep! It's non-oily and is a spot treatment to regenerate those pores. You'll wake up feeling awesome (see title link). Buy it for just $9.69!

College

Want an idea for a great college? Try the Mercy College Honors Program (see title link). Located in Dobbs Ferry, New York, it could be your ideal education spot.

Green!

Want to help the Earth this month? Participate in 30 Days of Green, presented by Seventeen magazine and eBay (see title link).

Healthy veggies

I love adding peeled cloves of garlic to my pasta dishes. They add tons of flavor and are very good for the heart. If you cook them for 10 to 12 minutes, set them aside, and then smash it the flavors will be oozing out (see title link). Find some of your own recipes!

Royalty?

This White fitted one shoulder gown from Jovani is to DIE FOR (see title link). Feel absolutely divine in this one-shoulder number. The embellished chains and sweetheart neckline make it fitting for any prom or formal event. Ask for Style 8510.

shine!

Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum is a great $17 product for glossy shine. Apply to it to your hair before blow-drying and skip a day before straightening, and your natural oils will add to the shine. It penetrates deep into the hair shaft to displace water and constrict hair, where lightweight silicones smooth and seal it with shine. The smoother surface give a faster drying and styling time, too (see title link)!

Simple accessory

I found these awesome small elastics that don't hurt at ALL. They're Goody Ouchless Ponytail Holders and you get 29 for just $4 (see title link).

Eliminate frizz!

Did you know bananas can help your hair eliminate frizz (see title link)?

Hair hair hair!

Check out Zoe Saldana's defined layers at the McQ Alexander McQueen for Target Launch Party (see title link). They are so sleek and sexy, and the angled cut gives it some individuality.

CoverGirl

I just adore Drew Barrymore and am so glad CoverGirl chose her to be their spokesmodel (see title link)! She is gorgeous both inside AND out.

legg!

What a hot pair of leggings! The Rip-roaring pair from Lulu's is just $22 (see title link) and look best in a gray shade.

Channel Rihanna

Check out this dress as seen on Rihanna at Barneys New York on August 11, 2009. It's a Rag & Bone dress from Spring/Summer 2009 with Black Leather/Black Floral Silk Georgette Sheath (see title link). LOVE it!

Swim time!

Check out this monokini from Fox (see title link). It's reversible, so you get two suits for one value of $84! One side is purple (my personal favorite) while the other is a cool black-and-white pattern.

LBD

Everyone needs a little black dress. For curvy figures, a fitted zip-front is the way to go, to make you look cute and decide how low your V-line will go. Check out this dress I found at Macy's from DKNY Jeans Juniors (see title link). $69.

Coach

Check out the cute wristlet I found from Poppy by Coach! It's a $68 glam piece that's perfect for a night of no-worry, hands-free dancing (see title link).

Candie's

This Candie's Pyramid-Stud Stretch Belt isn't available until next month, but take a head start by checking it out (see title link)! This version in black is totally edgy and elegant, on sale for just $12. The silver-tone pyramid is great and fashionable, and the wide design flatters anybody. The fabric is durable as well, for long-lasting style. It's polyester, with a silver-tone buckle.

Mail

Don't want to be in a Credit Crunch? Sometimes magazines can be misleading and tell you to do things without giving you all the information (see title link). When they give you ideas to save money by getting store VIP cards, follow with a grain of salt. They could be credit cards and put you into debt, showing the downside of discounts.

Nordstrom

What a great pair of shorts (see title link). KW is one of my favorites at Nordstrom. The BP juniors collection is just perfect for teens, and these $32 shorts are great for a relaxed weekend afternoon.

Belle of the ball...

Want a cheap eyeliner that is totally unique? Try Bonnebell Eye Style Precise Liner. At $3, the Plum shade is a great alternative to smoky eyes, making your lids pop without looking too edgy. Try a different look for a Saturday night out with your girls (see title link)!

VS

Victoria's Secret VS Makeup Perfect Lipstick is a $12 product that's worth it, especially in the Vino shade (see title link). The rich, creamy formula glides on to drench your puckers in a long-lasting full coverage, helping them shine with sheen and color. The shea butter and Vitamin E hydrates and conditions. The color is so moisturizing!

Shhh. it's a secret!

Secret Scent Expressions Invisible Solid in Diva la Daisy is SO wonderful! The Antiperspirant & Deodorant costs just $4.99 (see title link).
