Year after year, most trends fizzle out, what starts off as a seemingly good idea can soon end up in the back of your closet or worse the bargin bin. The good ones, however, transition from “trend” to “style” somewhere along the way, and these can’t be addressed without mentioning Kim Kardashian. As the face of our breakthrough colorceutical IllumiFill Line Filling Luminizer, the co-owner of boutique Dash and a major fixture in Hollywood, she’s often the first on the scene of the latest trend, whether it involves makeup, fashion, or even a certain teenage crooner......
Here are 4 of our favorite Kim-tastic trends:
Bold Lips: Choosing a vibrant lip color moves the focus from traditionally done- up eyes to an awe-inspiring mouth. Kim got the look right recently, pairing her magenta lips with slightly blushed cheeks and strong eyeliner. Compliment your lips by using Illimifill, our Line Filling Luminizer, on the tops of your cheeks to get a gorgeous dewy look. You can even use Illumifill on the bow of your lip to really highlight your perfect pout.
Army Chic: At this year’s Superbowl, Kim wore skinny jeans, an army-green blazer, a glossy ponytail, and carried an olive-green Birkin bag. The khaki-green color has found its way onto most runways, so whether you choose to incorporate this trend via slouchy harem pants worn with heels or a tailored jacket with a belt, know that you’ll be in good company!
Strong Brows: Kim lucked out with this trend, as she needs little help in the eyebrow area. Backstage at the fall 2010 shows, makeup artists furiously filled in models’ brows, and the result was big, boxy eyebrows on nearly every runway. For a more ready-to-wear look, try filling in brows with a pencil or powder a shade lighter than your hair, and blending, blending, blending. Highlight your strong brows with equally bold eyelashes, achieved by using LashFusionXL, our creamy, nutrient-rich volumizing mascara.
Body-Con: This year our mantra was: If you’ve got it, flaunt it. And if you don’t got it, fake it! Bandage dresses are everywhere at the moment, although they seem unforgivably tight, lumps and bumps look remarkably good in them. Take a cue from Kim and try one with a bold shoulder, keeping the dress from looking too dated.
Trends may come and go, but if there’s one thing they encourage, it is getting out of a rut. So slip into the most figure hugging dress you can find, and take your bold lips and radiant skin out dancing. Who said you can’t mix trends?
