2011 Clash of the Patterns


Clash of the patterns, I must say, is the boldest trends of this season.

I am talking about mixing polka-dots with stripes, floral prints with a geometrical piece. Sounds strange? I know! This concept might be puzzling, but once you are able to connect two psychedelic patterns together, guaranteed you will become this year walking masterpiece. Visit UrbanOG.com apparels collection and mix up your very own trend.

Elizabeth Taylor ~ Living Larger Then Life


Elizabeth Taylor has left us today of congestive heart failure, the last Hollywood golden star has fallen. Let us remember this dame, her extraordinary features stood out like no other, her heart shape face framed with her raven hair and her tiny waist made anything plain she wore look magnificent. Besides her glamorous appearance, she had a strong love for jewelry; collecting extravagant pieces, like the most talked about 33.19 carat diamond and also designing her own for The Elizabeth Collection. She did not stop there she came out with three perfumes senses of “Passion”, “White Diamonds” and “Black Pearls” that still lingers in our life.
In our eyes, Elizabeth Taylor was seen as a fashion icon of old Hollywood glam, but when asked if she considered herself as one, she stated she was fortunate enough to work with geniuses like Valentino, Halston, Gianni Versace and Rose Sharaff. Like a true fashionista she answered, she had never worried about good or bad taste, she would dress to please herself, the man in her life or the character she played onscreen.
Liz Taylor was not just a beautiful face of the silver screen; she was also a humanitarian giving voice to HIV/AIDS. She donated her time to AIDS related charities and fundraisers, Liz also help start American Foundation for AIDS Research after the death of her former costar and friend, Rock Hundson. Her iconic style and life will forever be embedded in our memories and hearts. Her death will not be a mourning, but a celebration of her “Living larger then life”.

Prom Updos


So you have your dress, shoes and accessories but still confused about how to style your hair. Well with all these red carpet events it will be a cinch to get inspired from all of the celebs dos’. We have pulled three great looks that you can easily achieve yourself. First we have a romantic pinned up look with ringlet curls framing your face. For this look pull your hair back, leaving a front side part where you will curl with 1/2” iron and spray to lock in the look.
Our second choice will have to be the drop-bun; tease the crown of your head for volume and gently pin your bun at the low nape area.
Last but not lease, a simple half up ‘do that will give you that Hollywood glam; simply by adding large curls with hot rollers or a large barrow iron and loosely pulling back the top half for a clear fresh look. Hopefully these three simple celebrities styles will help you finish your look.

Well, whatever it may be, her confident exude above it all.
