Love It or Hate It? Heidi Montag Channels Chanel

BellaSugar — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 13:30:44 -0800

A Chanel dress is eternally chic. Chanel's logo as a lip gloss is pretty cool, too. But nothing spells "classy" like having the iconic interlocking-C logo painted on your nails. While on a shopping spree, Heidi Montag displayed just that on her fingertips. Somehow, I imagine this look won't show up in Chanel's new ad campaign - and I imagine you'll have some opinions on this choice in nail art, too.

Trend Alert: New Year, Long Waves

BellaSugar — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 11:00:22 -0800

OK, I know it's nothing all that earth-shattering since long waves have been in fashion long before the Farrah Fawcett days. But this New Year's Eve, it was all about the soft cascading curl. Whether it was a more-refined look like Ashlee Simpson and Eva Longoria Parker or tousled and undone à la Molly Sims and Chloë Sevigny, the look was still sexy - and a little more inspired than pin-straight locks. Want some loose waves? Keep a large-barreled (at least one inch or larger) curling iron open and wrap your hair around the barrel for a few seconds and release. Is this the iconic hairstyle of the 2000s? We have one more year to find out, but I'm betting yes.

Love it or Hate It? Heidi Montag's MTV VMAs Look

BellaSugar — Sun, 07 Sep 2008 19:48:49 -0700

Heidi Montag of The Hills might not be smiling at her former pal Lauren Conrad, but you'd never know there's an ounce of tension judging from this happy photo here. Her wide smile and pink-toned makeup are friendly and sweet. But, the intense, thick black liner lets us know that she's got a bit of an edge (as do those huge earrings). Her hair's pretty standard - blonde and wavy. What do you think about her bad girl/good girl look?

Trend Alert: Vixen Violet Nail Varnish

BellaSugar — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 09:00:30 -0700

I just picked up an old issue of one of my favorite tabloids and noticed that Heidi Montag was wearing purple nail polish while frolicking on the beach with Spencer.

Since the girls of The Hills are huge trendsetters, this means that purple polish is likely making its way into the world right about now. Below are a select couple of cool violet nail varnishes.

Bermuda Shorts ($7) is part of the Essie Summer Neon Collection. This shiny bright purple is flirty, fun, and h-o-t!

Chanel Robertson Collection Nail Polish in Rodeo Drive comes packaged together in a limited-edition set for $25 for all four shades. The polishes are miniature-sized and are named after famous Los Angeles shopping streets - and as The Hills girls will tell you, Rodeo Drive is the place to be.

How Do You Style Your Hair When You're Wearing a Hat?

BellaSugar — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 06:00:26 -0700

Hats are a great accessory for hiding your hair when you just don't feel like fussing. I typically throw my hair into a low ponytail or secure it in the back with a loose braid, especially if it's day-old, since it holds better. Some girls wear hats with their hair down just because they think it looks cute, even after they've spent time styling it. I'm curious: When you put on a hat, how do you usually wear your hair?

Trend Alert: French Manicures

BellaSugar — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 07:00:29 -0700

I've got a hefty laundry list of qualities I don't like about Heidi Montag, but what I do love are her gorgeous nails. Whether they're gold or burgundy, they are always long and perfectly manicured.

I thought that French manicures were on their way out, but then along comes Heidi and Britney Spears bringing this classic back again. Most of you think they're tacky and should be saved for formal occasions only. For the rest of you who are still loyal fans, here are two great at-home French manicure kits I think you'll love.

Sephora Easy French Manicure Duos ($8) is a double-ended nail varnish that houses either a beige or a pink color on one side and a clear base and topcoat on the other. However, if you're looking to create the white tip, you still need another product. I suggest this French Tip Pen ($8) since it's so easy to use.

For one more easy-to-use French manicure kit, read more.

Barielle French Manicure Set ($16) contains an opaque white, a clear and a pale pink polish that allows you to create a French manicure in five simple steps.

Love It or Hate It? Heidi Montag's MTV Movie Awards Look

BellaSugar — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 17:34:56 -0700

Is it just me, or is Heidi looking a little uncomfortable? I'll admit, her lack of a smile, plus the super-blonde feathered hair, smoky eye, and pink pout are all making me a little uncomfortable, so I can't really blame her. What about you?

How-To: Heidi Montag's Letterman Makeup Look

BellaSugar — Thu, 01 May 2008 14:00:46 -0700

Lord knows I'm not the biggest fan of Heidi Montag (star of The Hills), but I will say that her makeup looks stunning here outside of the Late Show studio in New York City. Her face is so smooth, and her cheekbones are looking mighty sculpted.

Heidi was there to talk about the show, her new clothing line, and of course, her (lame) boyfriend Spencer. For those of you who are looking to mimic Heidi's Letterman-show makeup, here's what to do.

FACE: Smooth on a medium coverage, pale foundation such as Yves Saint Laurent Perfect Touch Radiant Brush Foundation in #6, and blend. The best part about this product is that the brush is attached. Then, dust a mineral powder over the foundation, apply concealer and a little brightener around the eyes.
CHEEKS: Her face looks almost porcelain, so you aren't going to want to disturb it with too much color. I suggest using a light, shimmer-free, tannish-coral contouring blush like MAC in Sincere to the apples of the cheeks and sweep upwards and outwards along the low side of the cheekbones. Make sure you blend well with a soft, fluffy brush. Next, add a touch of subtle, silvery highlighter along the very top of your cheekbones, to your forehead and along the top of your nose.

EYES: The MAC #1 Fafi Eye Quad is a perfect group of shadows to help re-create Heidi's sultry eyes. Begin by blending the vanilla shade all over the lid. Then, apply the pink shadow to the top of your lids and stop at the crease. TIP: Also apply a little bit to the inner half of your lower lashes. Next, blend the medium-brown shadow in the crease adding in a dab of the darkest shade. Blend well and line your top and bottom lashes with a creamy black eyeliner pencil. Finish with false lashes and two coats of black mascara.
LIPS: All you really need is a creamy pale-pink lipstick and a clear gloss or a pale-pink, high-shine lip gloss like Bourjois Effet 3D High Shine Lip Gloss in Rose Idylic to achieve Heidi's pretty pout.
