The fishnet tights have a magical touch to enhance not only your looks, but can easily beautify any of your summer women’s clothing, which you wear with it, manifolds. However, the sexier fashion apparel it is, the trickier its way of putting on can be.

Being too enthusiastic, irrationally, while wearing a fishnet stocking, as part of summer fashion trends 2009, can backfire and leave you at the receiving end. Thus, to avoid such fashion faux pas follow the following do’s and don’ts.

Wear Classics Only : While wearing such a fashion apparel, its color and type both matter a lot. It is better not to get lured by too colorful versions. Rather, buy one which matches your skin color nicely. Those which come in black or gray shades rule the most.

Small Gaps : The size of the gaps in the netting used in your fishnet stocking matters too much. So while grabbing your buy, pay special attention to the size of the gaps. If you have curvy legs, there is no way you can buy a fishnet tight with bigger gaps while having a bit flabby legs can be suitable for mid-size gaps. However, avoid too big gaps.

Fashion Inspired by the Moon and Stars

Over the last few years, an innovative fashion trend known as “space wear” has grown immensely, lending influence to countless designers all across the world. The look, which could be described as both intergalactic and futuristic, can now be found everywhere from the cutting-edge fashion scene to high street stores, sported by both men and women. But space wear has a very distinctive beginning with regard to influence, budding from none other than outer space travel and tourism.

With increasing advancements in aerospace technology, the idea of outer space tourism is becoming more and more widespread. Whether someone is genuinely interested in journeying to outer space, or simply enjoys the idea of it, talk of space travel is all around. And, of course, when an aspect of culture gains attention, as space travel has, its popularity can easily spread to other realms of society as well.

This is precisely how space wear surfaced in the world of fashion. The idea of travelling to outer space on holiday sparked the creation of space wear lines from a number of designers – and each line was an interpretation of what a space tourist might both want and need in terms of fashion in space. Of course, authentic space suits worn by real astronauts are purely functional and practical, with a vital purpose to protect. However, designers veering in the direction of space wear believe that fashion – as well as function – will be important for many space tourists. After all, many people do enjoy looking stylish while on holiday. And space travel is just that: a getaway (that just happens to be in space).

The science of beauty

We like attractive faces turned toward us, and less attractive faces turned away from us. But then, he notes, our brain chemistry can break all the rules and make us drawn to one person, even if their visage is not perfect.

Perrett spoke about his work with The Los Angeles Times.

Q: The work in your lab has produced some general rules of attractive faces. What are they?

A: One rule is symmetry - it does make faces more attractive. But it's a small factor. Another rule is averageness. That may seem contradictory, but we like to choose things that are familiar to us.

Another rule applies to female faces - you can make them more attractive (in computer models) by making them more feminine. For instance, you can make lots of structural changes - taking a broader chin and more prominent eyebrow bones and changing them to a smaller chin and a less prominent eyebrow bones. You can also create a smaller nose and larger eyes. In male faces, you can make them more rugged or masculine, but not all women will agree that the increased masculinity is more attractive.

There are also clues to health in the face. For instance, skin colour - this is not about dark skin or light skin, but rather about redness and yellowness. Ruddiness can tell you about the blood circulation, whether it's poor or good. Yellowness in the skin reveals a plant-based diet.

Q: Do people seek symmetrical partners?

A: Everyone seems to like symmetry, but not everyone likes it as much. For instance, women who find themselves attractive seek more symmetrical men. So the degree to which symmetry matters to someone depends on what they think of themselves.

Symmetry is less important to some people; it actually explains very little about the range of attractiveness in people.

Q: Your research also reveals that not everyone plays by the same rules or focuses on the same things. Can you talk about that?

A: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There are so many reasons why we're attracted to one face versus another. The family - particularly parents - affects us. Especially if we get along with our parents, we tend to (but don't always) choose partners that resemble the opposite-sex parent. .

There's also a lot of social learning from peers. If we see our peers giving a lot of attention to one person, then that person might become more appealable in our eyes. We can see that in the influence of Hollywood stars.

The experiences you have with someone - friendship, or more intimate - really affects how you see them. No matter what their face, the chemicals in our brain can lock us onto one person.

Q: You have also charted attractiveness over time. You've written: "We're at our cutest at about 8 months of age, and after that it's all downhill." Explain.

A: One way to chart this is to play around with faces of babies (on the computer). You can expand the forehead and reduce the size of the chin.

By 8 months of age, human babies have a massive forehead and a really diminutive chin - and that's the point at which most people find babies most attractive. After 8 months, the face grows relatively quickly. That gives rise to a less and less cute configuration. We find infants cute and we want to take care of them.

Tips for perfect lips

Your go-to gloss started letting you down, things started falling between the cracks (of your lips, that is) and, before you knew it, that matte lipstick in the window caught your eye.

For all those ready to make a break from gloss but not sure how to make a new relationship with lipstick really work, here's all you need to know to kiss the sticky stuff goodbye, or at least start seeing other products.

Misconception No 1: Lipstick will emphasise "flaws"

Some women shy away from lipstick because they assume it will emphasise perceived lip flaws such as wrinkles and dryness. And while gloss is the worst culprit when it comes to falling between the cracks of your lips, a bit of preparation is all one needs to ensure that lipstick goes on smoothly and doesn't head south.

Start by caring for lips nightly with a light exfoliating treatment and application of moisturiser. You can make a sugar scrub at home by combining a teaspoon of sugar and a few drops of water.

Follow up exfoliation with an application of hydrating lip treatment. In the morning, slick on a coat of moisturiser before you begin your makeup routine. Allow it to sink in while you apply your other makeup first and then blot lips before applying lip primer, lip liner and lipstick.

Misconception No 2: Lipstick is too bold for day

Some women eschew lipstick for fear it is just too much for daytime wear. I suppose if your days are destined to be dull and void of colour, this could be true. Otherwise, it's how makeup is combined that really makes it "too much."

Misconception No 3: The colour won't last

Assuming lips are prepped in advance, begin by applying a lip base to enhance lipstick wear and banish colour bleeding.

Lip liner is a must. If you don't have the matching liner, opt for a neutral shade.

Hair straightening a health hazard


Late last year, stylists in the US state of Oregon complained of eye irritation, nosebleeds and breathing issues after repeatedly applying Brazilian Blowout, a liquid keratin straightening treatment.

Oregon's Occupational Safety and Health Administration tested 105 samples of various hair-smoothing products and found unsafe amounts of formaldehyde in all but three brands of them.

The presence of formaldehyde is significant, says Arthur Grollman, a science professor at Stony Brook University School of Medicine.

"My concern is that formaldehyde is a probable human carcinogen that should never touch your skin or anything else," he says.

But despite the nasty buzz on the expensive process, many women seem to think that good hair trumps bad chemicals.

"Am I nervous about the chemicals?" Cohen asks. "Sure. But I'm not willing to give it up." However, at Cohen's last application several weeks ago, the technician wore a mask and gave her one.

At the DeFranco Spagnolo salons in New York Brazilian Blowout is used despite the controversy.

Owner Anthony DeFranco says, "My concern is not so much for the client who only gets it done two or three times a year, but for the stylist who's applying it sometimes two or three times a day. The salon has created a specially ventilated room, and requires masks for both stylist and client. But DeFranco says straightening products "all contain formaldehyde. If they don't, they don't work."

As a fan of the Brazilian Blowout process, what does all the bad news mean to Cohen? "Everyone who does it is uncomfortable with it, but it's like what you do for beauty. I'm still going to do it ... because it works."

Allure magazine has long been covering the Brazilian hair-straightening controversy. In 2007, the beauty publication reported on several salon solutions that contained high levels of formaldehyde, and, just this month, ran a story called Hair Alert.

"These really scary symptoms resparked the issue," says beauty editor Heather Muir, referring to the Oregon stylists. Muir says that using the product is "a lot like when women say 'I feel prettier when I'm tanning'."
