Trendy Tuesdays with Lucky Linden: Upcoming Jewelry Trends


I know by this time in the year I usually need a wardrobe refresher. I don't feel like going shopping in the middle of the winter season but I can always get some excitement in my wardrobe by adding accessories. For Spring, here are some of the jewelry trends to look out for.



Tassel earrings and fringe necklaces: This trend was seen a lot on the Spring runway from Chanel, Louis and Dior. Here's an example of a nice one by Bebe.







Medallions: These ones by Kara Ross and Lois Hill on the Max and Chloe site are really nice.







Plastics and Perspex: Colored fun jewelry that's 60's inspired will be big for Spring. You can find them from brands like Karen Walker, or Marni. The acrylic rings are really nice you can find them on Etsy.com. They are handmade.

Trendy Tuesday With Lucky Linden: Trends For Natural Hair


Being that 67% of women have kinky/curly or wavy hair it makes a lot of sense that naturally curly should always be in style. This however is not the case because of stigmas and certain impressions of "big" hair. One of the people who is trying to change that is Lorraine Massey, the owner of Soho's Devachan Salon specifically targeting curly and multicultural hair. Her book came out last week "The Curly Girl Handbook" and I picked it up yesterday. I haven't read through the entire book but so far I like what I've read. It gives tips on how to style your hair in its natural state, and how to wash and even trim your own hair. I know that a lot of us (including myself) have had addictions to wash and sets but this will give you an alternative to wear and care for your own natural hair. It saves money, is green because it saves energy and will help you to accept your natural self. The book is a little extreme with limitations on products and caring for the hair. For example, the author says you may NEVER straighten your hair. I disagree, although heat is damaging you can certainly do it once in a while, just condition it extra afterward. Also she forbids certain ingredients in products such as silicones aka:cones. I feel like whatever works on your hair use it, there isn't any need for me to be radical about it. Overall the book has some great advice and even recipes for homemade hair products. I think Curly Girl Handbook is a good buy if your trying to ride the natural wave. Natural is always in style. ~Lucky Linden~

Trendy Tuesdays With Lucky Linden: ‎​Shelikes Shellacs: The New Age Mani!



According to People Magazine's August style issue everyone is raving about CND Shellac hybrid nail color. It's a new manicure that is not your average. You know....that chips in one day. The plus is that it won't chip off after dried under UV light and isn't damaging. Okay here's the catch, "People" points out that the price of this mani is double the price of a regular one and you need to go back to the salon to get it removed.. Either way, pretty soon I'll be running to the nearest salon to have this done. Sounds like it beats chipped polish anyday. Check out which salon near you does shellac by going to CND.com. ~Lucky~
