stylist (228)

Did you know that in Ayurveda (the Indian science of health/wellness) a person's health is linked to the state of their surroundings?  I learned this while speaking to an Air Force officer who discovered Ayurveda in his travels (we were staying at his place for the July 4th holiday).  He mentioned that surrounding space is the same as the air, or "vata" element, and an imbalance could negatively affect a person's health.  Another way to put it is, if you don't have enough breathing room, you'll

Not too long ago, I was in yoga at the gym and I noticed a woman that would be beautiful by most people's standards.  She was well put together, and was tall and thin, with hardly any body fat.  I guessed that she was in her 40s.  Her skin was clear and blemish-free, and her makeup emphasized her beautiful blue eyes, long lashes, and enviable bone structure.  Her hair was also well cared-for, having subtle highlights among her straight, long, silky-blond locks.

Yet in this class, when the poses c

Valentines day is coming

Valentines day is just around the corner. What are you wearing? I am going for a classic look with a modern twist. I love to combine classic couture with a modern piece or two. Creating a timeless beauty that pulls styles form the past and marries them with the future. Nothing like a wedding on Valentines Day even if it’s just your clothes. Check out my pieces for valentines day and share your thoughts.

What's in a model bag?

What’s in the bag?

At the last Miss Sweetest Candy USA our celebrity guest judge Alicia Bertine asked the contestants, “What’s the importance of a model bag and what needs to be in it?” All the girls looked around and finally one answered clothes, makeup, shoes, and your winning personality. This is all true but I was surprised she left out so many things. All the girls hesitated to answer and that made me what to share what you NEED in your mode

These days you can’t flip through TV channels without someone teaching you how to “Look Good Naked”, telling you “What Not to Wear” or how you can look "10 Years Younger"!  These shows all portray the same message, helping people love the way they look.  Whether you’re changing careers, a new mom struggling with a post baby figure, or a professional seeking a more polished look, a fashion stylist can help you look and feel your best.  A stylist will help you choose clothing, shoes, handbags and

“Problematic Hair’ is a very broad term. The type of hair we are born with, in terms of color, texture etc. are generally genetically inherited. Some of us are naturally blessed with beautiful hair that makes it easy to maintain long tresses while some of us are always complaining about frizzy, oily hair that seems to be perpetually growing split ends.

 

The latter is at times associated with scalp problems that require to be tackled. Taking care of your hair and getting the beautiful locks you al

FotyMody: Which qualities should a person have to become a stylist?
Lesya Shynkarenko: A good stylist is an artist first of all. A person who have just good taste and understands fashion can`t be a stylist. A stylist is a person who doesn`t have any limits in imagination, but has sense of harmony. A work of stylist isn`t only clothes, it`s an image which contains lighting, proportions, furniture.

It is becoming more evident to me, the longer I am in this business, that it has become more of a marketing game than that of talent, for those wishing to succeed in any "Artistic" venture.

I am reminded, that in the last decade and even more so prior to it, if you wanted to get an assignment for a magazine or an Ad Campaign, you had to always pass through the Art Director or Creative Director. Once doing so and if the response was positive, you would be introduced to t

During the build up to the Academy Awards, several hundred women in Hollywood are on a focused mission to get red carpet ready. There are a few tinsel town elite who, with their trusted team of stylists, hair & make-up artists, dressmakers, aestheticians and trainers, glide through February as if it were any other month. Some call these the fortunate few. I call them smart. Oprah Winfrey once mused that, “luck is preparation me
