How To Tie Off Your Braids Different

Hi,

Today we found another very special little thing on WeHeartIt! It's a picture of a braid tied of with a normal black rubber band, but instead of just tying it normally, the girl in the picture wrapped in a special, crossed way.
There wasn't a tutorial from it, but we tried it out and the only thing you need to do different is that every time you twist the elastic, you need to pull it down a little. By this you create these little crosses all the way down. It might take a while before you get it right, but it's actually a very easy trick :) It gives your braid a fun look and remember, it's in the details ;) And of course it's also good for when you can't find a proper small elastic.

The Chanel Shopping Cart

Hi,

On thursday we told you everything about Chanels last fashion show, but today we will bring you back to the fashion show where Karl Lagerfeld turned the runaway into a Chanel Shopping Center. Because now, a couple of months later, the Chanel shopping cart is a huge trend. This shopping cart is made out of the famous Chanel chain and looks absolutely gorgeous. Lately we spotted many streetstylers going shopping with there Chanel shopping cart.

The stupid part about this trend is that the smallest size of this shopping cart will already cost you a € 5000 and the medium size € 9000. That is absolutely scandalous. But still we think it's a fun trend and we hope cheaper brands are going to sell original shopping carts soon too. Because who doesn't want to go shopping in style?

DIY: Hair Flowers

Hi,

Our favorite hair accessories are definitely flowers. You can't have enough of them :)
On WeHeartIt we found a very good tutorial on how to make them yourself.
Just like the DIY Flower Crown (we made a post about that too), you don't need a lot to make it. Actually you only, need some cute flowers and bobby pins. In the tutorials they use roses, but we think you can use any flower you want.



We really love what the girl in the tutorial did with her hair :D

Feminisme On Chanels Catwalk

Hi,

Chanel, original as always, turned the runaway into a street full of protesting models for feminisme. We think this is such a great way to bring feminisme into the news. Well done, Karl Lagerfeld.

The collection it self is very modern, but there are used many vintage prints and fabrics too. There are mostly only blazers with dresses or pants in the collection, which makes it this business style. Also we saw lots of nude glitter tights, maybe a new trend? In general we like the collection.

Watch the full fashion show here, but we selected some of our favourite pictures for you too:

EE-Cream

Hi,

You probably know what BB-cream is and maybe you also know what CC-cream is, but have you heard about EE-cream yet?

EE-cream, short for Enlighten Even Effect Skintone Corrector SPF 30, is designed to give you an even skin tone and a natural, healthy-looking shine. It's made to make your skin look more perfect and it gives you a pretty teint, but also hydratates your skin and protects it against the sun. But these are also the qualities of a normal BB-cream, so what's new about it? Well, the EE-cream, unlike any other cream, focuses on preventing darker spots on your skin. These darker spots are what people (especiallty those with a more sensible skin) will get when they get older. You can also get it from the sun or from air pollution. Another thing that's unique about this cream is that it will give your skin a healthy and beautiful glow so that you won't need to use any other make-up. Not even any kind of moisturizer. In other words: it's perfect for those who don't have a lot of time!

The first brand ever to release the EE-cream was Estée Lauder. Only since today you can buy it and it costs €35. That's quite a lot, but of course Estée Lauder is one of the more expencive brands for beauty products. And after some months you will probably find a lot of EE-creams from cheaper brands too.

Neither of us has tested it out yet, but we think it sounds really good. And it probably works better than BB-cream.
