I don’t deserve to be just an OPTION. I am born to be the FIRST PRIORITY.

Sonja Henie, a figure skater, a film star and a three-time Olympic Champion once said that Jewelry takes people’s minds off your wrinkles. True enough, jewelry can indeed glam up a look in an instant— a classic diamond stud earrings, a string of pearl necklace or even a pile of vintage bangles could work wonders in a simple little black dress or a white button-down top and jeans combo.

No doubt any woman must have at least the basic pieces of jewelry in their vanity case. Here are five must-have that I think every girl must have:

1. Watch

Not only are watches important for the working women, they are also essential pieces that can stand on its own. With its many styles, sizes and shapes, watches may be worn on its own or paired with a classic stud earring. It may project one’s feminine side or may add strength to a powerful ensemble.

2. Stud Earrings

This is a staple piece that can go with any outfit may it be the little black dress or a khaki shirt dress. The stud earrings can also go from a casual day look, professional work wardrobe or even with a lovely dress for a date with a special someone.

3. String of Pearl Necklace

For instant sophistication, a string of pearl necklace is the perfect accessory—it’s works well accessorizing the office clothes and the long dress for an evening event. Wear it with matching pearl earrings for that classic sophisticated look.

4. Cocktail Ring

Cocktail rings come in different materials, colors and designs. It’s a good piece of jewelry as it is always wearable and stylish. Cocktail rings with intricate designs are also statement pieces that will surely give extra edge to any outfit.

5. Bangles or Bracelets

Bangles and bracelets are accessories that could stand on its own. Alone, bangles and bracelets add character to and “funk” to anyone. However, combining bangles and bracelets with other accessories can either make or break one’s look. Match items with care as it is very easy to overdo accessorizing with bangles and bracelets.

Makeup depends a lot on our complexion, skin type and face structure, but there are few makeup products which suit everyone regardless of all these factors. Today, I’ll just go through 8 of those products, which need to be owned by all self-proclaimed makeup addicts out there!

1.  Purple Eye Shadow:

IMAGE SOURCE

Red suits the dusky ladies and blue is for the fair-skinned girls, so a mix of those two – purple – will surely suit everyone. While many would agree it’s great for night outs, but it’s perfect for daywear too. Just vary the shade from a pastel purple to a deep purple. Go for the richer looking shades.

2.  Peach Blush:

IMAGE SOURCE

Peach-shaded blush will suit all skin tonnes, being a hybrid between the pink and the plum shades. Fair-skinned people can apply it directly on the apples of their cheekbones to give the flushed look while dark-skinned women can brush it up on the cheekbones so it acts more like a highlighter.

3.  Blue Eyeliner Pencil:

IMAGE SOURCE

Blue eyeliner has the ability to make eyes look bigger, regardless of your skin tone. While black dulls out the eyes, the blue will automatically bring out the whites in the eyes and make them look bigger. Pick a shade of bright turquoise for the wild night and a deep navy for the day out. The pencil will last longer and gives true colour.

4.  Gold/Bronze Eyeshadow:

IMAGE SOURCE

Gold is THE metallic shade that suits everyone. Bronze does too, but it gives a duller effect which is more suited for daywear. Make sure that your gold eyeshadow has a pearlescent finish since matte will give a chalky effect, especially on darker skin tones. You can do heavy application for parties while just a subtle highlight for the glowing day look.

5.  Red Lipstick:

IMAGE SOURCE

Red lipstick always reminds me of the old world glamour with a dash of sexiness, but you must stick to the true red shade, otherwise the lipstick would no longer suit every one.

6.  Bronzer:

IMAGE SOURCE

With winters arriving, a little bronzer on the face will go a long way! Bronzers are chosen generally a shade or two darker than the skin tone. Buy ones with a touch of shimmer in them and they will work for all skin tones. For fair-skinned women, it should be gently brushed everywhere the sun would naturally hit – temples, cheeks and chin. For dark-skinned women, they again use it as a highlighter, applying it on the top of the apples of their cheekbones and curving it out.

7.  Sheer Lip Gloss:

IMAGE SOURCE

You can’t go wrong with a sheer lip gloss. Some people like to buy it a little tinted, such as in light pink or rosy shades. It looks like your natural lip colour even if it’s not and the shine brightens up the face instantly.

8.  Eye shadow Palette of Warm Shades:

IMAGE SOURCE

Brown eyeshadow is the basic eye makeup. These shades complement each and every skin tone, defining and emphasising the eyes. Women with dark skin can use the lighter shades as a highlighter under the brow and the darker shades as everyday eyeshadows. Those with fair skin can create soft or smokey looks. A good palette would have a range of shades from espresso to taupe.
