ASTARO is a creative new clothing line from fine artist and designer Patricia Baro.

When you're making an attempt to look somewhat professional, do you pay attention to details? For example, you could be wearing the most responsible looking ensemble, but if your purse is a cacophony of pinks and greens and metallics, it will throw off the entire effect. Don't ask how we know this.

It only stands to reason that, at a photocall for her new movie, Get Smart, Anne Hathaway would look smart, and she absolutely does. She is sleek and polished, but still manages to look approachable and friendly -- not a look everyone can carry off.

Two wrongs don't make Color Oops right

Email thisPosted Jun 30th 2008 at 2:03PM by Cat Lincoln

We know we sound like a broken record, but DIY hair color is a risky proposition. It seems simple when you read the package, but in real life people leave chemicals on for too long, pick the wrong color or mix processes that should always, always be separate, like bleach over henna'd hair.

We practice what we preach and see our colorist regularly. In fact, it was under the dryer at our hair salon last week that we read about the latest home craziness: Color Oops Home Color Remover.

Email thisPosted Jun 5th 2008 at 9:48AM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Cosmetics, Skin Care

We've known girls who had a natural talent for painting their nails. They could do left and right hands and feet with equal ease -- a French manicure was no challenge for them. And they never ended up with nail polish all over their digits.
