Just when we thought that it was Paris Hilton who prefers the “simple life,” it is actually her sister who’s going down that road whenever she can.

Recently, Hilton was photographed walking with her boyfriend David Katzenberg and she was wearing a cotton dress and flip-flops and without any visible make-up.

Photographs reveal that Nicky Hilton prefers being fresh faced and wearing comfortable cotton dresses during her free time, as evidenced by her walking down the streets of Los Angeles recently. Hilton is one of the most in-demand models in the industry but if she does get her free time, she would rather exchange those sophisticated dresses and heavy make up with outfits that are simple & comfortable and allow her skin to breathe.

The older sister of Paris definitely does have an eye for fashion too, as is well documented. Earlier this week, she was seen carrying a number of Louis Vuitton handbags as she arrived at the Sydney International Airport. It’s been reported that Hilton will model for designer Charlie Brown at the 2010 Rosemount Sydney Fashion Festival.

Sales of suspenders and stockings are increasing once more as more and more women copy popular celebrities such as Lady Gaga and Kylie Minogue, wearing heel lingerie stockings during their performances. Their “underwear as outerwear” look seems to have attracted the masses.

High Street retailer Debenhams attributed the increase in sales in the cooler weather where consumers can get away by wearing the aforementioned items.

The retailer revealed that black suspender belts and stockings have become in demand with sales rising by more than 230 percent over the past month. This resulted to the store searching for more patterns to accommodate the increasing customer demand.

The interest in suspenders and stockings declined a few decades ago due to the emergence of supporting tights. However, Debenhams spokesperson Ruth Attridge said that the unpredictable weather has worked wonders on how they’re selling their products.

Indian actress Zarine Khan was featured on an exclusive photoshoot for a loungewear brand. The items featured are in time for the winter collection in Mumbai.

Khan makes her big screen debut via the film “Veer,” translated to “Brave.” She is now the official ambassador for Sweet Dreams Loungewear.

The actress said that she’s excited to have gotten the opportunity to be the endorser for a high profile brand. As for her role in the films, she said that she wants to experiment with different roles in order to determine her full potential.

She revealed that the new line of loungewear is great for both winter and warmer climates. She said that she finds it easy to endorse the product because she uses it herself and she finds the style and design very refreshing.

The Sweet Dreams loungewear products are available in stores all over India.

Despite having four kids, German supermodel Heidi Klum still has what it takes to be a global fashion icon.

On Thursday last week, Klum was photographed wearing a bikini for the first time since giving birth to her fourth child. She gave birth to daughter Lou late last year.

The 36-year old model was on a family vacation in Mexico with husband, singer Seal. The couple marked their fifth wedding anniversary with renewal of their vows. The couple received positive feedback after they announced that they will do their vow renewals every year.

In a recent magazine interview, Klum said that it was not simple to regain the figure after giving birth. She admitted that she had to cut out on carbs and did intensive workouts to lose 25 pounds in as little as six weeks. She also added that it is also in her family that they rarely gain too much weight, admitting that she never had cravings during her pregnancy.

A bikini dancer will be scarred for life after being doused with gasoline and being set on fire. The suspect was apprehended and received a life sentence for the crime.

According to reports, 28-year old Rianne Theriault-Odom of San Fernando Valley received the sentence on Thursday. This was in relation to the incident that took place at a club called “Babes and Beer” on February last year.

The victim, Robert Busby, was working as a bikini dancer in the aforementioned bar and on February 5, 2009, she was doused with gasoline and was burned alive. Luckily she survived the incident but it came with a price. More than 40 percent of her body was burnt and had to undergo two dozen skin grafts.

Busby is a mother of two children and asked the court for the maximum sentence to be set on her attacker.

Achieving that celebrity makeup look can be hard for most people but with the right product this problem won’t be a bother. This prompted actress Demi Moore to launch her very own beauty line to meet the woman’s needs.

The “Ghost” actress is said to be working hard for the upcoming release of her own line and is currently in talks with companies for a possible partnership for this launch.

The wife of Ashton Kutcher is currently the endorser of Helena Rubinstein perfume specifically for the “All You’ve Ever Wanted” product.

Moore was quoted as saying that she’s at the best time to explore creative opportunities and working on a genuine business partnership that is beneficial to both parties.

The 46-year old actress is currently busy filming a couple of films that are scheduled for release next year. She’s a mother of three children from former husband Bruce Willis.

England will have a new representative in the upcoming Miss World Competition.

Twenty-one year old Katrina Hodge of Tunbridge Wells, a soldier, will take on a new task as the official representative of England in the prestigious pageant following an incident involving the reigning Miss England.

According to reports, Rachel Christie has decided to step down from her throne following an alleged nightclub brawl. Christie was arrested after the reported incident and will now concentrate on clearing her name on the charges.

Hodge was the rightful replacement for Christie since she was the first runner-up in this year’s competition. She was granted a leave of absence from the British Army to prepare and participate in the competitions that will take place in Johannesburg, South Africa on December 12.

Hodge was awarded earlier this year by her Royal Anglian Regiment unit for her stint in Basra which famously gained her a nickname of Combat Barbie and has famously been photografed in an army lingerie set.

Your wedding day is fast approaching and you are now in one of the crossroads where you need to decide whether you’ll apply the wedding makeup yourself or let an makeup expert do it for you. Here are some decision guides that could help you:

• If you find it challenging to keep a steady hand while applying makeup then it is best to hire an expert during the special day. It is normal to have jitters prior to the actual wedding and keeping a steady hand may be a challenge.

• Already have the dream look in mind? Then you can freely apply the makeup yourself. Just make sure that you have enough time to do this task yourself while thinking of other factors.

• If you are conscious as to how you will look during the actual ceremony, then it is best to leave the wedding makeup task to an expert or to a trusted friend who could fill in.

Parents have another issue to deal with especially when it comes to their teenage kids. The younger generations are now attempting to catch up with the look of sophistication which include make-up as well as clothing and undergarments. Kids are following makeup tips from magazines and attempting to wear the same shades of colors as specified on the written manual. They are also very interested in underwear that is not appropriate for their age like lingerie vests and underwear.

Is this necessary? Parents may ask. Reality dictates that there are now a lot of avenues for teens to get makeup tips. Even if parents forbid their teenage children from applying makeup, chances are these teens will attempt the task in another friends’ house or in school.

The best approach to this is not to forbid but rather to guide your teenage girls from the issue of makeup use. You could suggest gentle makeup products and not those that are used by grown-ups. Eventually, these teenage kids will grow up and it is best that they are properly guided when it comes to makeup application.
