You know I’m going to comment on Kim Kardashian‘s wedding and while I have a ton of opinions (gaudy version a royal wedding anyone?) the biggest surprise to me was that she pulled her hair back in a bun! I expected to be distracted by her gorgeously layered extensions, but instead she allowed for her facial features and a diamond head piece to take center stage. I spoke with NYC stylist, Fabian Lliguin, on how to create the chic chignon.

The 13th annual Teen Choice Awards were held last night in Los Angeles, CA and while most of the young starlettes including Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez and of course Kim and Kourtney Kardashian looked radiant on the blue carpet, I couldn’t help but admire the sleek, straight, glossy locks of Ashley Greene, Cameron Diaz and Blake Lively.
“Modern, sleek hair is so hot at the moment,” exclaims celeb stylist (and the genius behind Ashley Greene’s strands) Ted Gibson.
Here’s a breakdown on how-to get the look:
It’s been an incredible year thanks to you, my readers! According to your clicks and the time you’ve spent on my site I can measure which posts you really read, which you didn’t care for and which were a huge hit this year. Allow me to introduce the top five posts of 2010 according to you:
1. 2010 International Emmy Awards Highlights - This had to be because of Rita Pereira‘s show-stopping cleavage. I scored an exclusive interview with the Portugeuse actress backstage that cause quite an uproar. The YouTube video of the interview now has over 1,152,650 hits!
2. Holiday Gift Idea & Giveaway: Calvin Klein Euphoria – You love giveaways, but this one really hit home for readers of all ages and got quite competitive with 26 entries!
3. Ban Cellulite Now – Every woman’s enemy no matter how much they weigh: cellulite. So it makes sense this one was a big hit. Hey, it revealed the truth!
4. Vajazzling, I Had To – Ah, vajazzling. Yes, one of the biggest crazes of 2010 and apparently you were intrigued! Of course, I had to take it a step further and report on penazzling too! Hey, it’s only fair!
5. Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show: Backstage Makeup Secrets Video – Covering this sexy event was one of the highlights of my year. I had exclusive backstage coverage of the taping of the sexiest show on earth just for you!
So it’s been a pretty good year for BeautySweetSpot with some fun interviews including Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian and oh yea, remember when Julia Roberts called me and my other blogger friends “cute” at the Glamour Women of the Year Awards? – awesome! But I promise that there is much much more in store for you, my readers in 2011.
Thank you for your support this year!
We all look to celebs to see what they’re using and how they get their flawless skin, fabulous locks and overall glow. Well, we compiled some of their latest tips and tricks to bring you the scoop. Check it out:
Julia Roberts:
“I love eyeliner. I always think if I put enough on, I’ll turn into Sophia Loren.” I heard her favorite is Lancome Le Crayon Khol eyeliner in Black Ebony, which makes Julia’s stunning eyes pop.
Kim Kardashian:
Her secret is out, “I always style my hair first then pin it back while I do my makeup. Before I apply my foundation I sprinkle Bare Escentuals shimmer powder on my face to get a pretty glow.”
Beyonce:
“I always keep a pair of Ray-Bans handy! And sometimes I put a little gold eye shadow in the inner corners of my eyes—it’s more subtle than white, but it still really makes you look more awake.”

Last week I attended a Fusion Beauty Event with Kim Kardashian. Even though I’ve met her before, this was different. It was an intimate cocktail party with Kim at Villa Parci in the Meatpacking District and a select amount of other bloggers and I actually got to hang out and converse with her for an hour and a half.
I admire her so much because before anything, she’s a business woman. Kim spoke to the Fusion Beauty collection, which she’s a Spokesperson for and then answered any questions we had and just hung out. She’s very sweet and down to earth and yes, stunning. She wore n a grey bandage skirt with a lace top, black bra peeking through and black Louboutins. I had to ask her what her guiltiest pleasure was since I was thinking of BeautySweetSpot and she said watching mystery shows.
Out of all of the Fusion Beauty products discussed Kim clearly loved the Illumifil the most. It’s a primer with light reflecting properties that her makeup artists use both under and over her foundation depending on the look they’re trying to create. My favorite Fusion Beauty product – a balm called Bitten.
If you really want to see what the event was like, check out the below footage. I got some of it on tape! Kim spills her date night makeup tips:
