M!ss Wiss...Make-over Studio

As recently requested by one of my lovely followers.... They needed a lil help with a trend factor on dresses. they requested a dress that was in fashion and was glam enough for Eid but also wearable for the office.... I made it a point to shop out some hot and top trends, that can be mixed and matched to the office and to personality. It can be dressed up for glam and dressed down to the office. They all hit their individual wow! factor and they add spice to the winter chill.... Let's Start at the beginning of trend...   The mix of fabric, the leather and sheer metallic give an illusion of a futuristic feel and with a touch of fabrics such as silk, wool, would add to the evolving of the new age fashion and the more individualistic character of the garment.  The square lines taken from men's clothing giving a more box shoulder and the adding of waistbands, give an hourglass figure. the straight lines and geometric corners are used t...

SUMMER + MAKEUP LOOK = HEALTHY SKIN It’s important to change your make-up look and everyday products or colours with the changing seasons (as you know we have four a year) to more beautifully blends that stand out in our naturally changing environment and also to best meet the needs of your changing skin . This summer I personally feel inspired to focus on my skin.  The make-up look I’m going for is a very natural, honey/olive toned flawless skin finish with minimum use of coral/rose tones. I hate putting on several products like foundation, primers, concealers, powders or even moisturisers (on a hot summers day) as I feel like my skin can’t breathe and it's flooded with products. So for me to look even toned and smooth, I have to take care of my natural skin. I’m aiming for a healthy, evenly pigmented, naturally bright and slightly bronzed skin tone. And I know this doesn’t come easy! (I got my work cut out for me) #sigh# I have planned a few things...

Now you look as pale as a ghost..lol..Now over that apply your liquid foundation, now you'l...

Madame Zingara Making Magic Happen ...   The legacy of Madame Zingara dates back to 2001, when she first opened her doors and won over the hearts of the Mother City as a whimsical restaurant in Loop Street. This enchanting bohemian eatery became an immediate success with its warm and welcoming dining experience, decadently fused with the wild spirit of the gypsy. And so in 2007 the Theatre of Dreams was born, a travelling dinner cirque extravaganza housed in one of the last remaining antique mirror tents in the world. Touring to full houses in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban for almost two years, this irrepressible crew gave a whole new meaning to the term "dinner theatre".  At the end of 2008 Madame Zingara left South African shores and headed to London to share her magic.  And now...... Drum roll.....  Madame Zingara returns exclusively to clicks. with a large range of beauty products that can bedazzle and beguile....
