Teen Choice Awards 2015 Red Carpet


Teenage dreams were coming true last night at the Galen Center in Los Angeles, when One Direction won 8 out of 10 nominations at the Teen Choice Awards. Not far behind were Pretty Little Liars, winning 6 and Pitch Perfect 2 with 5 out of 10 nominations. But who cares, let's concentrate on more important things, like WHO WORE WHAT on the red carpet. Competition was high and the dresses were short. Let's see which celebrities impressed and which depressed with their outfit decisions.


Bella Thorne attended the event with the hotest accessory under hand - her sexy new boyfriend, who isn't just hot as hell, but also very stylish! Nicely done, Bella, nicely done!

 
Does Britney even age? I don't think so! In this innocent white lace dress, unicorn hair and pretty little smile she has shown that is still living her teenage dream and shall reign on her pop throne until her heighlights fade.

 
How nice, Portia decided to attend the event with her personal trainer. Oh no, wait.. that's Ellen. Even though I admire her efforts of creating her own fashion brand, I find this outfit too sporty for such an event. Next time - take advice from your stylish wifey.


Oh wow, Emma Roberts definitely surprised me with her chic classy look! White bodycon off-the-shoulder dress embroidered in multicolor designs was one of the best fashion choices she has ever made.


That's the actress that's playing Jane the VIRGIN?! She sure doesn't look like one! Gina Rodriguez was one HOT sexy mama, wearing crocheted silver dress and classic nude pumps, which she finished off with A perfect blowout (#HairGoals).


Short pans, don't care? Well, maybe Jason Derulo SHOULD care, because these pants are just too short to handle! Even though he might just wanted to show off his shiny new shoes, his attempts went totally wrong.


Too cute to handle! Keke Pelmer wore color blocked mini and paired it with lace-up sandals, which weren't the best shoe choice if you ask me. Nonetheless she pulled the look off with sleek bangs and a shining smile.


Aria aka Lucy Hale was a total cutie in Julien MacDonald black and blue embroidered minidress, which looked très chic on a young actress. There's really nothing NOT to like on her outfit.


Pretty little thing called Maddie! I'm happy to see that she's staying true to her age (12 that is) and doesn't try to act older by dressing in barely-there-outfits. I love her pink floral dress and little marble clutch. It's very chic but still very youthful and fun!

 
Do you follow Shay on Snapchat? If you do, then you know that she's much more fun in real life than she looks on this photo. I feel like the black and white frock doesn't do her justice in showing her poppy personality. Yet she still looks kinda hot!

 
What a bombshell! Victoria Justice stepped on the blue carpet in green bandage dress with fringe detailing and paired it with gold accessories and chic sandals. I absolutely LOVE everthing about this look! 
 
 
Zendaya, my favourite! When it comes to red carpet looks, she always pulls off the most creative ones. A set of long black skirt with high slit and ruffled of-the-shoulder top is a combination ensured to stand out.

Now tell me, who's your winner?

10 In-Flight Beauty Essentials

Travelling around the world sounds like a lot of fun, but spending all day on a plane? Not so much. I still remember my longest, 9-hour flight to the USA. I could barely move on my small seat, my hair got all messed up from trying to find a good position to fall asleep, my skin dehydrated from dry air and my feet got swollen so badly that almost didn't fit my shoes anymore. If you ask me, spending 5+ hours on a plane is the worst nightmare for your body! Luckily, with these beauty essentials at hand, you can make your in-flight experience much more pleasant.

1. Water
 
Drinking lots of water is the easiest and most effective way to keep you hydrated during the flight. So stuck on your water bottles before you board, but be sure to follow liquid restrictions.

2. Makeup Remover Wipes


If you want your skin to breathe and feel fresh during the flight, remove your makeup once you board the plane. The most practical way to clean your face is with cleaning wipes, which are easy to use and carry around.

3. Hydrating Lip Balm

When it comes to lip balms, I swear by Eos, which doesn't only take care of your chapped lips but also works as a cute fashion accesory!

4. Spray water

Facial spritzers are the easiest way to quickly refresh your face and they also contain clarifying ingredients that calm your skin. Try La Roche Posay's Thermal Spring Water or Skyn's Face Mist with multivitamin complex.

5. Eye gel

There's the thinnest skin around your eyes, which means it gets dehydrated most quickly. Use eye gel or eye patches to de-puff your eyes area. Try this one with cooling and soothing effect or choose hydrating collagene eye pads, which offer the easiet application.

6. Nail file

Because there's nothing more annoying than a broken nail!

7. Concealer

Nothing shows your lack of sleep more than dark circles under your eyes. This is why a touch of concealer is necessery when you leave a plane. I swear by Bourjois' Healthy Mix but have also heard a lot of good things about this one from Maybelline.

8. Brow pencil


Eyebrows on fleek are a must.. even 40.000 ft in the air! Define and fill them with Anastasia's brow pencil to create natural and balanced look.

9. Hairbrush

Sleeping on the plane (or at least trying to fall asleep) can make your hair look very messy, so having a hairbrush at hand isn't such a bad idea. Tangle Teezer is the perfect fit for long trips because of its small size.

10. Hand sanitizer

Having clean hands is the key to fight agains all the germs that crawl on the plane. Since there's usually a line for the toilet, hand sanitizers make a great alternative to hand washing. Try this one with lavender smell or choose cucumber and mint scent.


When packing your in-flight beauty essentials don't forget to follow the rules about the amount of liquids you can take on a plane. Usually you can have bottles/tubes per 50mL (and all together 1L) packed in 1-Quart zip bag.

So now that you're covered, where are you travelling next?

Summer Trend: Palm Leaf Swimwear


Palm leaf trend has been around for a while now but never in such a major way as it's this season. From shorts and playsuits to dresses and skirts - it appears everywhere and makes every outfit look uber chic. Well, since we're in the middle of summer, let's concentrate on swimwear only. 

We all know that choosing the right model can be very hard, but with a large selection of different silhouettes, I'm sure you can find THE perfect swimsuit for yourself! When buying one, I suggest you don't blindly follow the trends, because no trend will look good on you if it doesn't fit you. Instead try as many different styles as it gets and choose the one that reflects your personality the most, makes you feel confident and highlights parts of the body you're most proud of.
 
ONE-PIECE SWIMSUIT
When it comes to swimwear, saying less is more isn't the case anymore. Even though that one-piece covers a lot of your body, it can look just as sexy as a teeny-weeny bikini. One-piece swimsuit is perfect for women with athletic bodies and the ones that want to hide a little extra pounds on their abdominal area. It can also be a good choice for women with slim legs and big chest (but in this case, choose a swimsuit with higher neckline). Besides, you can also pair it with some denim short and wear it as a body for a stroll in the city.

BIKINI

Bikini is still the most popular swimsuit model, since is the easiest to wear and play with different combinations. If your body is in the shape of hourglass, then bikini is the right choice for you. Choose a ruffled top if you want to make your brast look bigger and go for a Brazilian-style bottom for an illusion of a bigger booty. For those with wider shoulders I suggest a top that commints around the neck and if you have wider hips and fuller legs, go for a one-color bottom and palm leaf top, which will bring the attention away from your lower part.

HIGH WAISTED BOTTOM
High waisted shorts are a big trend right now, but unfortunatelly don't suit everyone. The trend is for those with retro style and smaller breasts but long and slim legs. Yet, I've also seen it on a fuller body-size women and have to say that it can look amazing too! It's definitely very trendy piece, that would look especially good at fancy pool parties.
