StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-: Fashion is something which is to be followed by using a little bit of common sense rather than blindly following trends. Women have a host of fashion garments but when it comes to accessories, they are the scarves, the shawls and the other accessories like brooches and pins that add the much needed glamor and glitz to make an outfit the ultimate fashion garment.

Well to speak of enhancing an outfit there’s nothing quite like the scarf which makes a dull and boring outfit come alive with the right blend of colors to match!
Scarves are something which enhances the fashion statement of just any plain outfit can be worn with a little bit of imagination going wild.
There are various options already available like head scarves, neck scarves, motorcycle scarves, aviator scarves, and what have you, with fabrics ranging from velvet to silk to cashmere. Scarves can be used for an evening look to go into a formal meeting with the neck covered in the nice soft accessory or to cover the head to cover the hair on a considerably bad hair day. Shawls too, can make a splash with the wide range of excellent designs, colors and prints available, thereby making one look just right for any formal occasion by simply draping it stylishly.
Pins and brooches are also some of the best of accessories that can make any outfit look like a million dollars if worn with the right choice like diamond studded brooches for silver, black or any dark colored outfit, while pearl studded would be great with whites, peaches or all pastels etc.
Well one can get as creative as ever and these can also be innovated to be used as clip-on’s or just as an added attraction to take the attention away from some faux pas in outfits too. So come on, invest in some scarves, shawls and brooches to add some class to your outfit!

Sweater Dresses Look Stylish With Tights, Leggings Or TightJeans

StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-Winter is the season to get fashionable with all the options available in woolens. However if one really wants to look chic and fashionable with a bit of attitude then adorning sweater dresses is the way to go.

Sweater dresses are usually seen as quite boring and out of shape, but that is not true. Selecting the right cut, look and fit always does the trick. So what is the right cut to look for while investing in sweater dresses? The most important point to remember while picking up a sweater dress is to go in for a simple straight cut or the A-Line cut. This helps in hiding the mid riff bulge which most women are prone to have. But if one has a slender waistline and slender hips then picking up a slightly fitted sweater dress will certainly look cool.
However for the women who are looking for a chic and stylish look the sweater dress can be teamed up with tights, leggings or skin tight jeans.
Accessorizing the outfit with beaded jewelry and embellished belts. The neckpieces can be chosen according to the color and the look desired. Chunky jewelery will give a heavy look where as small beaded ones will give a casual one. Belts too can be worn in a variety of styles. Broad belts give a great shape to the waistline, so if one has a waist to flaunt, this is the place to do so. Belts on the hips should only be worn by women with slender hips. For others it is a complete no-no.
The footwear to be paired with the all time favorite sweater dress can be from casual boots, to high heeled pumps to peep toes or even strappy stilettos. Selecting the right footwear depends on whether the look is dressy or casual. Thus for a day time wear select casual footwear and for the night out just slipping into those high heels will do the trick.

Thus in order to look cool in these very trendy version of canvas shoes it is important to stick to them with casuals. The best way to look trendy and in sync with fashion is to support them with the perennial jeans and of course western wear that has the entire basic casual look.

Canvas shoes worn with trendy trousers is a complete no- no as it would mar the entire look of the outfit making it a complete faux pas.

These shoes look cool with shorts, jeans, three quarters, dungarees, baggies and just about any casual outfit that one can wear on a daily basis.

The trick is to stick to these shoes on a daily basis without giving it a very dressy look. Try avoiding these canvases with party wear. That would be the ultimate blooper and could make one the centre of attraction in a not so very flattering way.

What Is The Best Lingerie Gift For Your Girl?

StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-Whether it is her birthday or anniversary or Valentine’s Day, you are always confused what to gift her! If you are planning to present her something very intimate then a sensual pair of lingerie will be the best choice. But it is not a very easy job to get the proper one for her. You must know her size, style, choice and favorite color.


If you end up buying a smaller or bigger one and that too of a color not suited to her skin then it will turn embarrassing for both of you. So, first of all, try to know her proper size her choice. When she is not nearby try to check out her lingerie drawers to note the size. If she is a romantic person, who loves to be in flowery lace then you will be great looser if you end up buying a black sensual corset for her. If you can get close to her choice, you have won half of the battle.
Also, notice her body type, if she is tall and slim, you will be able to impress her by gifting Garter belts. However, don’t forget to complete the set with complementing stockings, underwear and bra.
A corset will be best choice if your girl is voluptuous. This will divert attention from her fuller tummy by offering a flattening effect.
Go for a sexy negligee if she is fulsome. It will cover her rounds in the best possible style and dark color will give a slimming effect. But don’t go for nets or see-through fabrics.
Boy shorts are best for your athletic girl, which will give her a curvier look. Along with this, a bra or a corset will go well.
The last but not least point is to avoid cotton material because every girl uses it in her daily life. She will expect something special like lacy satin or silk from you! Now you have a quite good idea what to gift your girl. So, go ahead and do feel shy to turn friendly with sales girl at the shop because she will guide you well to pick the best thing for your girl.

Make Up Kit For Teenagers: Bare Essentials


StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-: Make up for teenagers is fast gaining as much importance as any other age group has. Thus it is very essential for teenagers to get hold of the just right kind of kit, so as to keep their skin in full bloom.

Generally teenagers suffer from problems like acne and pimples that lead to a whole load of problems like blemishes and things. Thus keeping in mind such ailments, it is of prime importance to invest in a proper face wash. A neem based face wash would be the best for acne and pimple prone skin. For the others it is important to invest in a moisturized form.

After cleansing there is the nourishment. Thus invest in a baby cream that is from a reputed brand. Apply just a wee bit and then the protection.

This aspect should be well seen into by investing in a proper sunscreen. Remember that since teens are almost always out their skin needs to be protected well from germs and dirt. Make sure to use a daily sun screen which can last for hours.

After the face looks clean the next area should be the eyes. Proper liner for well defined eyes should have very light colored eyeliners and mascara for the evenings out. Lips need to be nourished with proper lip balms and creams.

These days many fruit based balms are available, which are quite an incentive for teenagers to make their lips look pink and glowing.

Nail enamel in the proper shades look cool on any teen. However loud colored ones can also be opted as this is the time to have some fun with experimental nail décor.

Then the  hair. Hair needs to be kept thoroughly clean at all times. Apply a liitle gel and brush it with light strokes to make sure that there are no tangles or knots. So the make up kit for a teen ager should be chosen with these basic needs in mind. Come on get going if you have a teen at home or better still if you happen to be a teen yourself!
