The 90’s Dungarees Are Back!

Reds

The 90’s dungarees are back and trending. They’ve been around for a few months now and don’t seem to be going away any time soon! Come rain or shine you can wear your trending dungarees and feel good. For hot days, you can always team your short dungarees with a simple vest or tee underneath and wear some sexy wedges or sandals. If you want to jazz it up a little, why not wear a statement necklace in case you want to feel more glam. For the cooler days, you can either choose to wear your long dungarees with some slouchy boots and a long sleeve jumper or sweater over the top or you could wear your short dungarees. If you decide on the shorts, you can always wear thicker…

Make Sure You Have Gorgeous Paws For Summer!

Neutrals

We all want gorgeous paws. Especially now it’s Summer time and we’re out and about more showing off our bodies and nails! There’s nothing worse than seeing horrid nails on someone. First impressions count and even if you haven’t thought about it, people do check out your nails so be aware! The first things I check out is hair, nails and sometimes clothes… and to be honest I think everyone else does… even if they don’t admit it. Anyway, why would someone want to go around with awful nails? Sometimes we don’t have time to re-do them and I understand that. Everyone’s busy in their hectic schedules so fair enough. Not everyone has the time to pop to their local beautician. I tend to do my own nails; this saves…

Getting That Summer Glow

Neutrals

Soft, glowing skin looks beautiful all year round but add a little bronzer and you’ll resemble a golden goddess. In summer, we tend to crave clear, dewy skin and no matter what skin type you have, that look is possible with a few handy products. Let’s start with skincare Good skincare will give you a smooth complexion that will look striking either with a natural base or foundation. Every skin type needs to at least cleanse and moisturize daily. Also, remember to remove your makeup each night to avoid your pores becoming clogged.

To get that glow,…

So if you're "handling it"... here are some tips from Georgia's Juice to get you through the week & the new year. “The holidays are upon us and for many it can be joyous and exciting.

That New New!!

Reds

It's almost a new year and for many it's the time to make resolutions you won't keep and fill up social media with the "New Year, New Me" posts. In the words of a typical 80's teen "UGH!!! Gag me with a spoon!" lol! Look I get that a new year is a great time to restart your life but before you have the gaul to let those fingers type those words or your lips utter that phrase, look around you- if you made that same status last year but ain't a damn thing changed & you have yet to make any moves to do so, SPARE US!!! Yes, speaking it into existence is important but if no ACTION follows you're just wasting your breathe! Some of you may be…

#NoWaistNovember

Neutrals

I haven't posted anything fitness related in a while, but those of you who follow me on IG know I've been keeping it up (yay me!!). I must admit I feel better than I have in a very long time & I'm definitely gonna continue this fitness thing! I know a thing guys (& some girls, yuck) do in November is "No Shave November" to prepare for the cold weather. Another thing people do in the winter is pack on the pounds. Now I get it, the stuff your face holidays are during this time but since when did gorging yourself for 2 days equal gaining 10 pounds in 2 months? Well if you're on your fitness tip & are silently dreading the cold like me, I'm here to help…

#LikeTheLook

Reds

Fashion lovers are always looking for an excuse to play dress up & Halloween is definitely at the top of the list of fashionable holidays! You can be whatever & whoever you want, push the envelope & set your stylish & creative juices free with no (or hardly any) repercussions because it's a costume. Now of course with anything there are always people who take it too far and make distasteful & disrespectful costumes. They should be held accountable for those actions but we can't let them spoil the day for us! There's a seasonal store that pops up in various locations call Spirit Halloween & I LOVE IT!!!! If you think Party City is awesome then this store will blow your mind!! It's ALL Halloween stuff & nothing but!…
