Here's a few of XiXi's favorite beauty tricks and tips, straight from her closet.
Introducing Monica Rose, one of my favorite celebrity stylists who's mostly known for her work with the Kardashians and many other celebs in Hollywood. I absolutely adore her edgy, wild-colored, and daring sense of style! Her blog also features many fashion campaign photos with glammed up, futuristic appeal! Let's make a bold statement, shall we?
Dear Monica,
We will work together in the future. I promise!!!
Love,
XiXi

Pick Of The Day: Sophisticated & Sexy Business Wear
Written by XiXi Yang
Wanna look classy and stylish yet don't wanna come off as a try hard? Here's my pick of the day for all my ladies working office jobs who wants to dress to impress. I especially LOVE this combination because it's sexy, sophisticated, and simple... It's like you threw everything on in the morning but you're still making a fashion statement! Make sure you tuck in the shirt so the tight pencil skirt can show off your gorgeous figure and lengthen your legs!
All the pieces are designer and, let's be honest, we can find similar substitutions at a way cheaper price! You can get a similar blue top from Express for a fraction of cash you'd be splurging on a piece from Lida Baday. A simple, form-fitting black skirt can be found anywhere. The clear & black heels may be difficult to find but you can always substitute that with any multi-color heels for this trendy look! (Just make sure you stick with cool colors. We don't want you to look like a hot mess.)
And no. I didn't get to keep the outfit. It was like a hot & saucy one night stand.

Lida Baday Silky Blue Top
Elizabeth and James Black Pencil Skirt
Stella McCartney Heels
Black heels are a HUGE no-no! Nothing says "I'm boring and I like to play it safe" like a pair of these.

Where pop culture icon Lady Gaga gets majority of her outfits is just beyond me. This chick is so fierce that she was spotted wearing pantyhose over her head at the ACE Awards in NYC last week... it looked something like this:
Gaga has a history of wearing bizarre headpieces. Here's Planet Saturn on Ellen.
Look!! We found Kenny at the VMA's!
What do you think about Lady Gaga's bizarre taste??

Did you know that an average woman eats 4-9 pounds of lipstick in her lifetime? That's between 481 - 1082 tubes total! For all my ladies in the show biz, just take that number and multiply it by 10. Our systems are crying out for help.
A few months ago, I did a beauty photoshoot with a well-known photographer named Courtney Dailey. I learned so much from the shoot about skin and beauty because my green guru makeup artist May Lindstrom only uses planet-friendly products! Her make-up kit is comprised of pigments from antioxidant rich fruits and vegetables, earth minerals, fresh herbal infusions, teas, coffee, cocoa, seaweed and salts, probiotics, active enzymes, nourishing honey, etc. After she applied on the light layers of make-up, I not only looked refreshed but FELT magnificentl!!! I felt youthful, airy, and charged. It was like an unexpected spa sessions!
May told me that it would not hurt my skin if I fell asleep without removing my make-up because all the ingredients are safe. My lips smelled like toffee and my foundation smelled like honey. It was torture, really. How can the make-up hurt your skin if it's consumed before it even has a chance to clog up your pores?
