]]>Paint the Town Red
If we had to pick a single color ruling the Golden Globe red carpet this year, red would take the cake. Florence Pugh, Selena Gomez, Heidi Klum, and Ayo Edebiri were only some of the stars to give it their seal of approval.
Make it Shine
Stars attending the Golden Globes were shining brighter than ever in their dazzling gowns. Elizabeth Debicki, Natalie Portman, and Julia Garner hit the red carpet in shimmering dresses, while Taylor Swift put a green twist on this trend.
Think Pink
Margot Robbie’s obsession with the color pink isn’t fading away, and she was joined by several more stars embracing the Barbiecore craze, including Jennifer Lopez and Hailee Steinfeld.
White Winter
White gowns were having a moment at this year’s Golden Globes, and we’ve seen everyone from Elle Fanning to Gillian Anderson wear them, but Natasha Lyonne’s haute couture Schiaparelli gown was definitely our favorite.
Strapless Gowns
Many stars in attendance hit the red carpet in glamorous strapless gowns, including Jennifer Lopez, Allison Williams, Cailee Spaeny, Gillian Anderson, and Elle Fanning, among others.

]]>Perfect Balance
The best way to create a healthy and nutritious “girl dinner” is to find the perfect balance between the ingredients you’re going to use. Make sure your dinner contains lean protein, carbs, healthy fat, and fresh fruits and vegetables that will keep you fed and energized late in the evening.
Calorie Count
One of the first TikTok users to slam girl dinner is @siennabeluga, with her viral comment “some of these ‘girl dinners’ look a little suspiciously low cal to me.” Experts noticed that her heart is in the right place, since it’s best to try eating around 500 calories when putting together your “girl dinner” plate, while most viral videos contain much less.
Portion Control
The main concern with “girl dinner” is that it’s too restrictive, but it’s also pretty easy to go overboard. Portion control is key even when it comes to this trend, especially if your “girl dinner” includes sugary sweets and greasy snacks that aren’t that healthy.

(@beautyybyjm_)Fair Skin with Warm Undertones
The fiery hue complements your complexion beautifully, creating a harmonious balance. To enhance the warmth, opt for a shade with more orange undertones, like a sunset copper.
Medium Skin with Neutral Undertones
Cowboy Copper Hair can give medium skin with neutral undertones a sun-kissed radiance. Go for a shade that leans towards auburn or reddish-brown.
Olive or Tan Skin with Warm Undertones
Aim for a deeper copper hue, perhaps with a hint of chestnut. This pairing adds depth and richness to your hair, emphasizing your natural warmth.
Dark Skin with Cool Undertones
Opt for a cooler, burgundy-infused copper. This creates a dynamic contrast that accentuates your natural coolness while adding an unexpected twist to your overall look.
Dark Skin with Warm Undertones
Go for a rich, fiery copper with red undertones. This combination enhances your warm undertones, creating a stunning visual effect.
Porcelain or Very Fair Skin with Cool Undertones
Opt for a copper shade with a touch of burgundy to create a captivating visual dynamic.

]]>The Western world is fairly late to the syrup trend as it is popular in Korea, having originated in Japan way back in 2015. The look is for anyone who prefers a neutral type manicure, but wants to jazz it up a bit with an ombré effect. Here’s how to do it at home.
Step #1
Apply a base coat to your nails and add a tip to the end in the color of your choice, as you would if you were doing a French manicure. Don’t worry if it isn’t even as it will blend out with the next few layers.
Step #2
Syrup nails work best with light colors that have a sheer finish, so stick to nudes and neutrals as the gradient effect won’t be noticeable with bold hues. Once the first layer is dry, apply two to three more. The trick is to always start a little lower each time so that the color builds up by the tip, but remains sheer near the cuticle.
Step #3
Once you’re happy with how it looks, apply a top coat. This should give your nails that glossy syrup effect.

]]>Naruto
Naruto is one of the most beloved anime of all time, and ColourPop Cosmetics’ latest collection puts it front and center. The color palette is inspired by the signature shades of its main characters—Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke—and you’ll find everything from pressed power palettes to gel liners and glitter gels in this brand-new makeup drop.
Sailor Moon
ColourPop’s anime-themed collections have been going stronger than ever this year, but they’re nothing new. They kick-started this trend with their Sailor Moon line in 2020, featuring shadow palettes, blushes, and flip kits, and they became such a huge hit that they ended up restocking this collection.
The Legend of Korra
ColourPop created a lot of buzz with their Naruto makeup line, but this isn’t their first anime-themed collection of 2023. Back in March, they surprised The Legend of Korra fans with a wide range of amazing products, including liquid shadow sets, lip crèmes, and shadow palettes in earthy tones.

]]>The post Should We Copy the Quiet Luxury Trend? appeared first on LUX & LUSH.
]]>Now, ordinary (or not super-wealthy) people are trying to copy the look. Often, this involves choosing neutral shades such as beige, cream, or camel, and combining clean-cut items with simple, classic jewelry looks. The women and men who choose to dress in this style often look fantastic and incredibly chic.
Should We Be Aiming for Quiet Luxury?
Yet some are questioning whether this trend should be promoted by brands, magazines, and influential individuals. There are concerns that quiet luxury in its true form will forever be out of reach for the masses. No matter how chic you look, when your outfit has cost less than a hundred dollars, you will never be accepted into the uber-wealthy club. Additionally, the women who are intent on copying Gwyneth Paltrow’s courtroom cashmere are fuelling the fast fashion nightmare as high-street brands churn out more affordable versions.
No Individuality
There is another, perhaps less serious, problem – and it’s that as a trend, quiet luxury doesn’t really allow individuals to experiment or express themselves. Whilst everyone may style the pieces differently, the pieces themselves are awfully similar – cropped cream jumpers, chocolate brown trousers, low-heeled shoes, and fine gold chains.
There is nothing wrong with any of these items separately, but when combined together it creates an instantly recognizable look which doesn’t really allow the wearer to say anything about themselves. Sometimes, this is what we want from clothes. We want to look chic and respectable and fit into any setting seamlessly. But sometimes, we want our clothes to speak up for us, to help us make our voices heard. We want to express our individuality through color, pattern, texture, and unexpected jewelry additions.
The Bottom Line
The quiet luxury look seems like it’s here to stay, but is room for more creative styling to flourish alongside it. Tap into the quiet luxury trend if you like, but don’t forget to express yourself.

]]>The post Pearlcore is Our Personal Philosophy This Season appeared first on LUX & LUSH.
]]>If you idolized the looks of Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe, you will be pleased to know that pearls are very much on the current style scene. As a symbol of elegance, pearls have never really gone out of style, but at the moment they are back in a big way.
Earrings
If you want to jump on the pearl wagon but are afraid of going all in, earrings a good place to start. You can wear a pair of statement earrings dripping in pearls, or pop in some little studs to add a little glam to your look.
Headband
Embrace the preppy vibe by using a pearl headband to complete your outfit. They look good on every hair length and texture, and have the added advantage of keeping your hair off your face and out of your eyes.
Clothing
Thought pearls were reserved for jewelry? Wrong! Create the perfect brunch look by pairing a pearl-studded cardigan with jeans and sneakers; or upgrade a basic T-shirt with some pearl-embellished jeans or flats.
