Glam-Aholic Trend Alert: Wax Jeans

Classic denim now has a new look! I know many of you Glam-Aholics may be wondering what exactly is wax denim?! Wax jeans have shiny leather sheen with the same comfort of denim. It’s like the best of both worlds! Wax denim is your basic denim jeans coated with pigment to give it a “wet” like finish..

Just like some of your favorite pair of jeans, the wax does fade over time; however the shiny finish will stay.  Wax jeans have been flying under our radar for a few seasons, but are now becoming more relevant in stores everywhere!

Unlike pricey leather pants, wax jeans are affordable and can be worn with any and everything that you would rock with your standard denims! Making them one of the season’s must-haves for every Glam-Aholic…

Fashionista’s everywhere have been raving about the candy coated footwear trend!

Who could forget the image of Beyonce stepping out in a pair of Aqua Louboutins?! She definitely let the shoes do the talking with this look…

The key to this statement look is to pair the heels with black, neutrals or color-block then add the bright lights to your feet! Fergie is definitely a fan, she mixes her bright heels with everything!

A pair of distressed jeans and a fitted tee or button-up, can go from causal weekend to club ready with the help of fierce colored heels.  You can even match your lipstick with your bright footwork!

Same Girl…Different Hair: It’s A Lifestyle

Oops… I did it again! “Same Girl…Different Hair”, you already know the motto that we live by!  It’s so much more than just a slogan, it’s a Lifestyle! So for my latest session with my stylist Malika, we decided to go all out. We shaved off one side of my hair & cut “G L A M” inside.  As you guys can see, I’m having way too much fun with my short cut and I’m not sure if I’ll ever grow my hair back!

Confess Your Glam: Head OverHeels Shoe Boutique

As you Glam-Aholic’s know I live for BIG earrings! The bigger the better!  I’m always on the hunt for dazzling earpieces to knock me off my feet. As a child I would sit in my mom’s closet for hours playing in her earrings, so my addiction is serious! LOL Don’t get me wrong I’m a fan of studs, but nothing beats a pair of oversized “look at me” earrings to set your look on fire! So you can imagine how excited I was when Mia Ray bought me HUGE pair of 70’s inspired bass earring for Christmas :)

Fresh right!? These earrings look so fierce with my new haircut!

Mixing & MAC’n: Warp Speed Cremesheen

Hi, my name is Lauren and I confess: I am addicted to ‘Warp Speed‘ Cremesheen Lipstick by MAC! Somebody stop me!  It’s a very soft dove grey almost white. It can be used as a base coat, a top coat or worn alone. The best part is you can use as a “controller” for other lipsticks to either turn them down or turn them up…

In the three looks I incorporated ‘So Chaud’ matte lipstick, ‘Media’ satin lipstick and ‘Up the Amp’ amplified lipstick.

‘So Chaud’ is a very bright orange, its matte so it’s very potent. I applied ‘Warp Speed’ first to tone the orange down to an easy everyday color.

Media’ is a sultry dark cranberry/brown. I used ‘Media‘ to line my lips and then smudged ‘Warp Speed‘ in the center. Excellent for a night out on the town.

Up the Amp‘ is a vibrant fuschia/violet. I applied it only to my upper lip to create a fun and flirty look.


‘Warp Speed’ can stand alone or be paired with virtually any color in your collection. It’s neutral, not over powering, and AMAZING! The next time you’re at your local MAC counter give it a whirl!

Rihanna’s Hawaii Style

While enjoying her time in Hawaii, Rihanna is definitely making headlines and that means her style is what everyone is focused on. We live for RiRi’s head turning looks and as always she brought her A-game to the beach!  Before heading to Hawaii Rihanna tweeted a sneak-peek picture of her closet. I spy nothing but Louboutins, I would love to raid her closet!

As she made her way through the airport, the stylish singer stayed true to her native roots sporting a Pendleton for Open Ceremony tribal pencil dress $179.

Our favorite Glam-Aholic turned up the heat and had our emails going H.A.M when she was spotted in this Norma Kamali sheer panel swimsuit $350, showing off her sick body! This gave us motivation to get up and hit the gym lol!

 And if that wasn’t enough Rihanna pull off all stops rockin a pink Mark Fast dress as a cover up! Showing how we can transition and rock a piece more ways than one…and get your money’s worth when dropping big bucks on a Mark Fast look. That big curly mane adds everything to this look!

  Confess Your Glam, are you loving Rihanna’s vacation looks?!
