Madonna introduced a more sexualized version of music and paved the way for the likes of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Beyonce to heat up their look and brace the bustier. Makowksy says it has always been about playing with the bustier and leaves our readers with some great tips: “Although bustiers are known to be overtly sexy, I think by pairing unlikely fabrics with such a feminine shape is the perfect mix of fashion, function and sex appeal...layering a bustier with a pencil skirt, a ripped pair of jeans or a tailored blazer can give you 3 drastically different looks.”

ollywood is famous for producing blonde actresses, from platinum to golden to sun-dried and back again. The photographer’s lens loves the honeyed locks of today’s trendiest celebrities and RedCarpetTips.com has generated a list of leading ladies who have mastered the blonde bombshell look. Feeling inspired to go blonde but cannot find the courage to alter your natural color? Do not be afraid. We will walk you through the ins and outs of coloring by offering some simple advice to take with you to the salon.
Make sure to bring photos of your past hair color, and the color you are now going for, to ensure that you and the stylist are on the same page. Ask the stylist what their experience is with coloring hair and if they have samples of previous clients for you to look at. If the stylist does not get the color right on the first try change stylists! Do not go back in for a re-do or your hair, and finances, will go down the drain in a hurry. Understand that hair color takes maintenance. Make sure to use color protecting shampoos and conditioners that will extend the life span of your hair’s color and you, too, can master the red carpet look blondes have come to dominate.
