ECOYA Limited Edition Christmas candles - Fresh Pine Needles and Caramelised Plum Pudding RRP $39.95

I know it’s not Christmas yet but I can’t help burning the gorgeous limited edition ECOYA Madison Jar Christmas candles. Available in two unique scents; Fresh Pine Needles and Caramelised Plum Pudding, these candles not only smell delicious, they capture the spirit of the Festive Season and make me long for Christmas.

I always have a tube of Elizabeth Arden’s cult product, Eight Hour® Cream in my handbag & one next to my bed. I use this multi-use on my dry lips, cuticles, brows & on any dry patches of skin I might have. So I was beyond excited to see that Elizabeth Arden had released an Eight Hour Cream Limited Edition Iconic Collection. Drawing inspiration from the hottest fashion trends of the moment, the new line features packaging with modern colorblocking designs in on-trend hues of the season. The addition of modern color blocking delivers a refreshing twist to the original design with a unique metallic gold “8” emblem adorning the product packaging’s front panels.

These are on counter now and only available for a limited time.

How To Wear Coloured Eyeliner Posted on April 29, 2013 by Aleesa I’m a lover of eyeliner. There, I said it. Because with the strategic flick of a kohl pencil, your peepholes can become all alluring-like, and people will find themselves staring into them longingly (well maybe not all the time – that could be creepy). Many of the latest eyeliners are also long-wearing, no more all-nighter eyes for you by the end of a day, and come in a variety of fabby colours.

THISISSUE:

Like so many new ventures in life, the thought of using a coloured eyeliner can be enticing yet scary. How does one add a little colour along that lash-line without looking like she is working at a Helena Rubenstein counter circa 1986?

Here are some tips and tricks for your perusal:

Save your natural beauty

Jana: I’ve applied MAC Minted Eyeliner just under the lower lash-line of (fellow Glammie) Jana’s lovely peepholes. The rest of her eye make-up, I’ve kept fresh. Ditto to base, cheeks and lips. The coloured eyeliner is the real star here.

Tip: Always have a small, CLEAN (yes, brushes need to be washed regularly, or your eye make-up will be a murky mess) brush on hand when applying eyeliner. This is to soften or correct line if need be. Because few people can apply a perfect line. Fake it till you make it.

Kara: I employed the same technique to Kara’s lovely peeps. Featuring MAC Petrol Blue Pearlglide Eyeliner, I’ve applied it just under her lash-line with minimal make-up on the lid. Just a little contouring of the eye in a natural, warm brown.

Tip: For his look, avoid contouring your eye-lid socket in the same colour as eyeliner. I.e. if you use blue eyeliner, avoid lashings of blue eye-shadow. That’s when the wheels can well and truly fall off. With the likelihood that you will look like you’re touring RSLs in an ABBA revival band. Which is totally fine if that’s your life choice. But if not, just stick to a sweep of bronzer or other natural tones on the lid.

What about if you really want to lift your foot off the brake and just go there with a full lid of colour? (Like the purple eye make-up that I did for Sonia Kruger recently featuring Designer Purple Pearlglide Eyeliner .)

Rejuvenating now Tip: Add the desired colour on the lid in the colour family of the eyeliner (e.g. Crystal MAC eyemasks shadow on available in Australia the lid and even deeper purple shades in the outer corner), but STILL complete the look with a sweep of warm or taupe brown in the socket. This will bring it together nicely and finish off your coloured eye to a professional standard. All the other kids will be talking about your artistry for days.

Not ready for a vibrant colour but want to try something different to your average brown or black eyeliner?

Maybe something a little on the smoky side? You’re speaking my language. Personally I love to whack on a little metallic bronze (MAC Teddy) or antique gold (MAC Powersurge) but have recently fallen in love with MAC Black Line Pearlglide Eyeliner. If you’re like me and are partial to inner eyeliner – this is quite perfect.

Sits well in that water-line, can be easily reapplied and in a fetching colour with its dark tones and gold flecks.

Stop it I love it.

Tip: Get that colour all around the lash-line and make sure there are no gaps between the liner and lid. When I see girlies who have crudely appliedCONTACT: liner and there is a flashAESTHETICS of exposed eye-lid between lash-line and said INSIGHT liner, I cry inside. This is the cardinal rule of eyeliner application – no gaps! Sharpen that pencil and drag it Ph: 1300 along the lash line in small strokes if need be. Get737 your393 clean brush and smudge/tidy line to your liking. Be Info@insightsurgical.com.au careful that there is not too much product accumulated in the inner corner of eyes as this generally is unflattering. Start eyeliner in the middle of lash-line and work out. Apply with an extra-sharpened point to the

We chat to Caroline Stanury, the founder & owner of Smitten Cosmetics...

HOW DID YOU GET INTO THE SKINCARE/ COSMETICS INDUSTRY? I came to the beauty industry by way of fashion; I was fortunate to work with my mother Mae for 20 years owning and running the renowned Perth chain, You Boutique.

After the birth of my 2nd child, I suffered from post natal depression. I was advised that I needed to make a life change.

I needed something that was more nurturing and less ‘frantic’ than the world of fashion. What I discovered during this time of self-reflection and exploration, was that I had a way with people, but most importantly, with women! I’ve always considered myself a great salesperson, but during this

time I discovered that it was health and the environment, making women feel good that like never before.

However, I also was my true gift.

You2 Home Beauty acknowledge that cosmetic salon was born. This was the and surgical procedures are perfect job for me and I could increasing as women look to hardly call it work! I created a ‘medical’ solutions to aging and haven for women; “I believe that natural skin care. I believe that ‘natural’ and a place where they based products could bring their ‘cosmeceutical’ are important in a can be used in own children if they changing world” conjunction with needed to or have each other. some time out for Our body absorbs themselves.

In the process of helping what we put onto the skin and other women I also helped therefore it is important that myself, and it was here for me, we know what ingredients are that my journey with Smitten present in our skin care and makeup. We need to make began. an educated decision to use certain ingredients. Just as WHAT’S YOUR SKINCARE OR BEAUTY PHILOSOPHY? I would advise my Smitten I believe that natural women to be careful using based products are important in alcohol on their skin, of course I a changing world where people do not object to them ingesting are concerned about their it!!

BER

“Smitten aims to provide truly effective products that reflect our focus on a natural origin yet combine scientific advances in modern skincare to provide for the changing needs of women.”

I believe there are often too many ‘rules’ associated with skin care and makeup and that makeup needs to be our skin care! Our every day treatment regimes need to be easy and able to fit in with the busy, time poor lives that a Smitten woman leads. The women I know do not have time for complicated treatment regimes, so with Smitten it was my aim to take the grind out of your treatment regime and to cut down on the amount of products a woman community of women who subscribe really know what TELL US MORE ABOUT is ‘supposed’ to use. they do and don’t like, not to SMITTEN COSMETICS... mention, it’s great exposure The Smitten evolution WHY DID YOU CHOSE to a whole world of beauty began with Smitten Essence LUST HAVE IT AS THE bloggers who can also make – our launch pad, and Smitten RIGHT MARKETING a tremendous difference in the Organic – the natural products CHANNEL TO ‘LAUNCH’ dissemination of your product range then refined to Smitten WHIPPED? Having officially or brand message to another, Cosmetics so we could address other areas that a purely natural launched Smitten, and in wider audience!

It’s also a particular, Smitten Whipped “[Lust have it] is a range could not. wonderful We’re extremely as our flagship product at the truly truly wonderful way proud of the range Sydney International Spa & way to ‘test’ the to ‘test’ the market,” and proud of our market, and receive Beauty Expo in August, we knew loyal customers, we had something special! The feedback – good and we continually test the feedback regarding Whipped and bad – about our product.

I want the phrase “are market and always asking what has been incredible, and we wanted to ensure that more you getting whipped” being is it that ‘Smitten women’ want. women, and women who are spoken about at every coffee The answer is the focus and not necessarily in the beauty shop, kitchen table, school direction of the newly branded industry but LOVE their beauty playground and office around company, Smitten Cosmetics.

Smitten Cosmetics products, had the chance to the nation. Lust have it has given us the vehicle to achieve embodies all that is beautiful sample Whipped.

I’d heard such great that by directing our product to about women and aims to things about Lust Have It; the women who love their beauty enrich the lives of those who products. use it by offering a stunning

range of cosmetics that are natural-based, have active ingredients and are beautifully packaged.

My reason for propelling myself forward every day and shouting from the rooftops about the Smitten experience is my unrelenting passion for ensuring that women look after themselves and showing you that beauty is skin deep – literally. Our brand/product philosophy, if you will, centers around women – that’s you! - and your wellbeing: Encouraging you to take some time out for yourself every day (even if it’s just 5 minutes) Reminding you to do whatever makes you happy Making sure you schedule time for you (if it means getting a babysitter in once a week so you can go to the movies, then do it!)

Telling you to cuddle your kids and/or partner – physical contact is good for the soul Ensuring you cleanse, balance and moisturise at least!

Being your skin-care sister and telling you to drink plenty of water, sleep for at least 8 hours, exercise and just

love you the way we love you!

Making sure we look out for each other New Age Makeup for New Age Women.

Gone are the days of slapping any old makeup on your face. It makes me laugh when I think how careful we are with our skin care routine and then so often reach for any old thing off the shelf as our foundation - full of goodness knows what…. Hence Smitten Whipped!

We can and MUST demand of our skincare and makeup companies that we want it all! Today’s beauty industry needs to be able to accommodate the ever changing needs of the modern day women.

Women are turning to cosmetic medicine and surgery in the search for better looks and aging ‘gracefully’. We need to know that the makeup we are using after our ‘peel’ or laser will cover and also heal our skin.

We don’t want everyone to know that there’s been a ‘little’ work done.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR CAROLINE & SMITTEN? Bringing the Smitten Cosmetics story and range to the world?! We are still in the process of taking the Smitten Cosmetics story, and in particular the Smitten Whipped story, nationally, ensuring that every Australian woman has the chance to connect with Smitten.

There are so many great things that I want to do and share. I keep being told one thing at a time…really what woman does one thing at a time? Watch this space as our Whipped Mousse range expands.

Our team is expanding every day and we are confident our philosophy will resonate with so many Australian women, that when asked which products they use, they will proudly say, Smitten Cosmetics (proudly Australian made and owned!)

Highlighting & contouring basics for day & night

When it comes to highlighting & contouring there are two things you need to know...

Sax Complexion Bronzer Tahitian Summer RRP $19.95

...your

contouring is to push areas back to create shadows & de-emphasise areas whereas highlighting is to emphasise or bring areas forward.

For conturing use a shade thats three shades darker than your own skin—and make sure your product is matte, never frosted or shimmery. Areas that can be contoured are cheekbones, jaw, neck, temples, nose & forehead. So if you want to make your forehead look smaller, ap-

ply your contour shade along your hairline to create a shadow & for maximum effect, then apply your highlighter on the middle of the forehead.

The opposite of contouring is highlighting—this you do on areas you want to emphasize or bring forward.

For highlighting, you can use either matte or frosted/shimmery color, whichever you prefer. You can highlight the top of your cheekbones, browbone, around the mouth, bridge of the nose & forehead.

DAY

For day keep things natural by lightly contouring with a soft, matte bronzer. Apply under the cheekbones, jawline & around the hairline on your forehead.

Use a light-reflecting concealer to highlight under the eyes, down the bridge of the nose & blend up onto the forehead.

NIGHT VANITY Mineral Liquid Radiance RRP $40.95

For night apply the same as day but try contouring with a matte, cream bronzer & add contouring to more areas such the sides of the nose & temples.

To highlight try using a heavier concealer to create an inverted

triangle shape under the eyes & also use this same product down the bridge of the nose & lightly around your mouth.

Finish off with a shimmery highlighting product on the top of your cheekbones & on your browbone.

A girl’s guide to conquering the 2013 Spring Racing Season from Veet’s Style & Beauty team!

Saddle up ladies!

Spring racing carnival is here and who is better equipped to provide fellow fillies with the hottest Fashion an beauty tips than the experts from Veet’s style & beauty team.

Veet, Australia’s leading depilatories Brand, has devised the ultmate guide to staying on trend and looking polished throughout the racing season with These three key elements.

BEHIND THE SCENES

Veet beauty director Amy Erbacher gives us the low down on the important body prep required to achieve that overall polished look.

WAXING

1. Firstlymake sure hair is long enough to wax otherwise you won’t be able to achieve that silky smooth look. However, with Veet’s easygrip ready-touse wax strips formula, you can remove hair as short as 1.5Mm in length so you will have no more trouble with stubble!

2. If you have sensitised skin, I recommend waxing two days before the event using Veet’s easy wax electrical roll-on kit with sensitive refills and then wait another day to exfoliate to prevent irritation that may be caused immediately after.

EXFOLIATION

Looking good is also about feeling good, which is why

1. Prior to fake tan application to achieve a subtle glow, exfoliation is a must! Why? To gently remove dead skin cell build up, so you have an even canvas to apply your fake tan.

It also keeps the tan longer.

2. I would dry body brush

before jumping in the shower or bathing. Remember not to push to hard with the brush as the bristles will do the work, along with gentle swift movements towards the heart.

Dry body brushing so aids in detoxification and adds a glow to the skin!

TANNING: 1. Fake it don’t bake it! It’s in fashion now to not over do the fake tan, but just slightly take the edge off pale skin.

Especially if for instance, you are wearing a lot of bright colours and printed fabrics.

2. Fake tan doesn’t work for you? Always apply body shimmer with our favourite moisturising body cream.

MOISTURISE

1. To prevent dry snake like skin, be sure to moisturise as much as possible – body oils are great, particularly as fake tan tends to dry the skin out more. I’d apply body oils in the evening and a light weight moisturiser with sunscreen during the day hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! In the week leading up, drinks lots of water

For further information on Veet please visit www.veet.com.au or www.facebook.com/ veetaustralia and now you can follow us on instagram@veetaustralia

One sure bet this Spring Carnival, is you will be looking hot to trot! to keep skin hydrated for overall health.

ALL FROCKED UP!

2. Remain feminine – traditional hemlines that sit on the knee or below, with an overall clean silhouette to show off those silky, smooth legs.

Morello explains how to get the right make up look, and more importantly one that will last the distance!

3. When it comes to hats & fascinators – get creative!

Think mixed textures or structural headbands and pieces. It’s your time to be bold and shine out there ladies

1. Add some shimmer powder to your moisturiser and swipe over your limbs and décolletage to make it glow on the day as well as in the photos!

2. To help your makeup last all day, ensure you use a skin primer and an eye primer first 3. Pack your concealer and a setting powder in your purse so you can touch up during the day.

Now that you’re body ready, it’s time to dress the part.

Someone who knows a tip or two about staying ahead of the fashion stakes is Veet style liaison, Kelly Smythe.

Exclusively for you, Kelly has given us the industry insights on the hottest trends to look out for this year.

1. Colour, colour, colour! Think bright tones for the season – it is Spring time after all!

AND READY TO GO!

Hold your horses, there is just one last step to ensuring you have that smoking hot look.

Veet beauty producer, Chloe

4. For bright and pretty eyes, dab some light shimmery eye shadow onto the inner corners then elevate the brows by dabbing some under the arch and give your lips a pouty appearance by applying some over the cupids bow with a wealth of knowledge and experience between them, Veet’s style and beauty team have the top tips to help you look the part this Spring Racing Season-as for betting tips, you’ll have to ask the bookies about that one!

TREND TO TRY:

COLOURED EYELINER

by Aleesa Hall I’m a lover of eyeliner. There, I said it. Because with the strategic flick of a kohl pencil, your peepholes can become all alluring-like, and people will find themselves staring into them longingly (well maybe not all the time – that could be creepy). Many of the latest eyeliners are also long-wearing, no more all-nighter eyes for you by the end of a day, and come in a variety of fabby colours.

Like so many new ventures in life, the thought of using a coloured eyeliner can be enticing yet scary. How does one add a little colour along that lash-line without looking like she is working at a Helena Rubenstein counter circa 1986?

Here are some tips and tricks for when it comes to this trend: Try applying your coloured liner just under the lower lash-line of your eyes & keep the rest of your makeup fresh so that the coloured eyeliner is the real star here.

Tip: Always have a small, CLEAN (yes, brushes need to be washed regularly, or your eye make-up will be a murky mess) brush on hand when applying eyeliner. This is to soften or correct line if need be. Because few people can apply a perfect line. Fake it till you make it.

For a nighttime look, use the same technique as before but apply a little contouring in the socket with a natural, warm brown shadow.

Tip: Avoid contouring your eye-lid socket in the same colour as eyeliner. I.e. if you use blue eyeliner, avoid lashings of blue eye-shadow.

That’s when the wheels can well and truly fall off. With the likelihood that you will look like you’re touring RSLs in an ABBA revival band.

Which is totally fine if that’s your life choice.

But if not, just stick to a sweep of bronzer or other natural tones on the lid.

What about if you really want to lift your foot off the brake and just go there with a full lid of colour?

Add the desired colour on the lid in the colour family of the eyeliner (e.g. Crystal MAC eye shadow on the lid and even deeper purple shades in the outer corner), but STILL complete the look with a sweep of warm or taupe brown in the socket. This will bring it together nicely and finish off your coloured eye to a professional standard. All the other kids will be talking about your artistry for days.

Not ready for a vibrant colour but want to try something different to your average brown or black eyeliner? Maybe something a little on the smoky side? You’re speaking my language.

Personally I love to whack on a little metallic bronze (MAC Teddy) or antique gold (MAC Powersurge) but have recently fallen in love with MAC Black Line Pearlglide Eyeliner. If you’re like me and are partial to inner eyeliner – this is quite perfect. Sits well in that water-line, can be easily reapplied and in a fetching colour with its dark tones and gold flecks. Stop it I love it.

Tip: Get that colour all around the lash-line and make sure there are no gaps between the liner and lid. When I see girlies who have crudely applied liner and there is a flash of exposed eye-lid between lash-line and said liner, I cry inside. This is the cardinal rule of eyeliner application – no gaps! Sharpen that pencil and drag it along the lash line in small strokes if need be. Get your clean brush and smudge/tidy line to your liking. Be careful that there is not too much product accumulated in the inner corner of eyes as this generally is unflattering. Start eyeliner in the middle of lash-line and work out. Apply with an extrasharpened point to the inner corners in a fine line.

Et voila, you are now a goddess with smouldering eyes. Who knew?

Did you know Australian researchers have found that people who wear sunscreen every day had fewer wrinkles than those who weren’t regular sunscreen users?

This means that it is vitally important to use a sunscreen every day as casual incidences of sun exposure add up over a lifetime and contribute to visible signs of aging

and sun damage of the skin.

LAZY GIRLS GUIDE TO GREAT SKIN

Quick & easy skincare products If you hate the extra steps of removing your eye & face make-up use a gentle all in one cleanser that removes dirt, oil & make-up (including eye makeup).

Paula’s Choice Hydralight One Step Face Cleanser RRP $27.30

Don’t underestimate the importance that proper cleansing can make in your skincare routine! Use a powered cleansing brush such as the SKIN PHYSICS® Derma Sonic™ Power Cleansing Brush RRP $119 which uses sonic frequency to clean, soften and smooth skin. In just 60 seconds, the brush gently yet thoroughly removes make-up, dirt and oil.

If you’re too lazy to remove your make-up before you go to bed, keep some make-up remover wipes on your bedside table. Also keep a look out for wipes that have added benefits. Try L’Oreal Paris Revitalift Rich Make-up Removing Cleansing Wipes RRP $7.95 which contain a creamy cleansing lotion, glycoliss , an active exfoliant, and vitamin C to effectively remove make-up (including mascara) leaving skin feeling perfectly cleansed and refreshed.

Use a toner in a spritz form that contains active ingredients to give multiple skincare benefits.

Try Jurlique Purely Age-Defying Mist RRP $55 which enriches the skin, restores its elasticity and smoothness while providing an uplifting radiance boost to the skin’s appearance. The mist also promotes a balanced, more refined appearance while helping to diminish the visible signs of ageing.

There are 2 types of exfoliators; chemical & physical which both exfoliate the skin in different ways so look for an exfoliator that does both. Try Dermalogica AGE Smart MultiVitamin Thermafoliant RRP $71.50 which contains physical and chemical exfoliant to soften, smooth and refine skin texture as well as a unique self-heating technology which activates upon contact with skin or water to help facilitate penetration of multivitamin actives into the skin.

If you never seem to have time to apply a facial treatment mask use one that’s fast acting such as Clinique Turnaround Instant Facial RRP $68.

In only 5 minutes, this high-performance facial delivers all the radiance and smoothness of microdermabrasion with significantly less irritation and stress to skin. It also promotes surface cell turnover on multiple levels to instantly unveil skin

Use an eye product with an in-built massaging roller to cool and refresh & help to decrease any puffiness.

Try Puretopia Eye Rescue Refreshing & Detoxifying Massaging Roller RRP $19.95 which contains natural botanicals to help reduce the appearance of puffiness and dark circles, vitamin C and cornflower adds clarity and brightness evening out skin tone as well as vitamin E and shea to soothe and add moisture.

When it comes to a moisturiser, look for one that not only hydrates the skin but provides other skincare benefits. Try Ella Baché Fruit D’eclat À La Tomate Bio RRP $110 which gives skin a stimulating, oxygenating treatment for a healthier, clearer and brighter complexion.

Wearing sunscreen on your face every day is a must so protect your skin with a tinted moisturising sunscreen like Le Tan Sheer Tint Daily Face SPF30+ RRP $10.99.. With a matte finish, this sheer tint is great for all skin types and can be worn either alone or under make-up.

3 easy hairstyles for the races

By Sara Ward

Diva Black Flower & Feather Fascinator Clip RRP $12.99

Fascinator & Side-Swept Wave Fascinators are a great spring racing accessory; there are many different types and colours to choose from, and can be worked with a range of hairstyles!

It is important, however with a fascinator that you ensure your hair is visible and complementing the accessory. The first look that is easy to re-create is the side-swept waves.

1. First prep your hair with a heat protectant & comb through to evenly distribute the product 2. Then taking a larger barrelled hair curler, wrap a 10cm width piece of hair around, from about eye level down, leave for 10-15 seconds and release.

This can be repeated all over the hair.

3. Once you’ve finished curling all of your hair & the curls have cooled down, run a wide tooth comb (or alternatively your hands!) through your hair to separate the barrel curl into a wave.

4. Finish with a small spray of shine enhancing hairspray.

5. Attach the fascinator, pull your hair around one shoulder and you are ready to race!

Wide Brimmed Hat & Straight Hair Hats are a great accessory for the spring time, as they are sun protecting and also extremely glamourous!

Floppy, wide brimmed hats are a fashion must this spring, and can be the ideal accessory if you choose the right colour to match your race day outfit.

While your hair is under a hat, it is still an important element of the outfit, and can be seen by all and one of the best looks to work with a hat is straight, silky hair.

It is best to get as much length of hair out of the hair as possible, and this can be achieved using a hair straightener and some amazing smoothing and shine enhancing products.

1. Start by washing hair with an anti-frizz shampoo & conditioner.

2. Apply a straightening balm to towel dried hair then blow dry the hair with a paddle brush.

3. If you need to, run a straightening iron through your hair.

4. Apply a shine enhancing & anti-frizz serum to the hair 5. Place the hat on your head and you are styled and ready to trot!

1. If you want a more curly looking bun, begin by curling the hair otherwise scrunch some texturising product through the hair.

2. Pull the hair together and secure with a knottie at a point on the back of your head.

3. Grab small sections of the pony tail and pin around the base of the pony tail. Continue doing this until the desired look is created & all the pieces have been pinned into the base.

PICK A COLOUR: AS LONG AS IT’S BLACK OR WHITE

Ever remember making chatterboxes in class as a schoolkid? Colouring in each side and asking your best friend to pick a colour?

Colour’s all well and good in the playground, but when it comes to impact, nothing beats black and white.

From Audrey Hepburn’s Givenchy wardrobe in Breakfast at Tiffany’s to Rihanna zipping up a full-length Tom Ford zebra print dress complete with a Zebra mane, the power of monochrome is undeniable.

Back in the 60s as the world and our TVs got bigger and brighter and more colourful, no one stood out like Audrey in her black Givenchy column dress, eating a croissant and a deli coffee outside the most famous jeweller in New York City.

In My Fair Lady that ethereal floor length white beaded gown

was enough to convince royalty that she simply had to be a princess.

So what does a bambi-eyed movie star have to do with Rihanna?

Nothing frames a beautiful face or bright red lipstick or Audrey’s signature winged eyeliner like simple black and white.

The wild girls like RiRi wear bold prints, thick printed stripes like the ones she designed for River Island, big black Wildfox and Karen Walker sunglasses, plus a half-shaved head or a pixie cut. We won’t mention her new mullet or her Instagram account.

And if your style’s a little more understated than the infamous RiRi? Think Gwyneth wearing her

white caped Tom Ford gown to the Oscars (who needs a supertight mermaid gown to look sexy?). Or Kate Moss hanging onto the arm of Johnny Depp in that iconic feather-trimmed black dress.

Lingerie stores might try to convince you to head for the racks of brightly coloured bedazzled bras, however black and white is as sexy and timeless on a woman as the crisp white shirt and black tux is on a man.

Remember when white undies made Kate Moss a supermodel and Mark Wahlberg a star?

Can you believe he has his own production company now? Not to mention Megan Gale wears a one-piece black swimsuit like a reincarnated Sofia Loren. Yep, the key to style is pretty simple: it’s all written there in black and white.
