Top ways to look ridiculous

Just don’t do it!

Watching MTV, daily soaps and action movies many women get these ‘great’ ideas. Like: wearing tiny golden shorts, string bra, shoes with 15 cm heels (like J Lo in her music video) or completely transparent top, extremely high hair, a lot of flounce, purple from head to toe with a touch of green, large animal print… you name it. Although these looks are undisputedly sexy and seem applicable to everyday life, trust us, they are not. Hasn’t your mamma ever told you not to trust anything you see on TV?

Before you get out of the house, check the mirror. It often happens that we look something in between of what we were picturing and what we really achieved. That’s mostly because all of us girls have these perfect looking pin-up girls in our heads.

So, when we put on a piece of top range clothes or makeup, we imagine we look just like the advertisement mannequin, but sometime it’s far from beautiful and sexy. Although the imagined me has the perfect complexion, enhanced with that new toner and powder, an honest look in the mirror reveals just perfect – dark circles around my eyes.

Some of us are born with it, some have to work hard to achieve it – sexy look is not something to be taken lightly. When you’re up for sexy, don’t do severe.

Ten golden not to dos

Thick layered red lipstick

We have nothing against screaming red lipstick, but only if you promise not to put it on while driving, the rest of your wardrobe is in subtle tones, not to eat spinach and check it every two hours.

The traitor bra

Those transparent latex straps just don’t do the job. They tend to cut in your flesh, get dirty very easily and get real they are not invisible. If you have to have something flashing from your top, let it be a subtle colour of lace or satin bra.

Dramatic look gone bad

Artificial lashes poorly attached and leaky glue making your eyes red are signs for you: first learn how to do it properly. Even more, go easy on mascara (no one likes lumps in lashes), and when you’re plucking your eyebrows, for the love if God, look what you’re doing.

Concrete hairdo

Yes, your hair should move, especially if the day’s windy. Take it easy with maximum hold gel and spray. When you’re colouring your hair at home try calling your best friend to help you. There’s nothing worse than a dark spot in blond hair.

Smelling like…

Don’t mix several perfumes together. Don’t put deodorant, scented moisturiser and scented shampoo on at the same time and top it with perfume. Too much scent gets…smelly.

Appropriate clothes

It’s good to follow trends, but you should adjust it to your figure. A stretch mini with no bra plus big tits looks bad. Showing cleavage down to your waste line will only make you look cheap and a wide belt on your not so thin waste will make it look fatter.

Platforms etc.

Please, don’t wear platforms. Those days are long gone and only Pamela Anderson gets to wear them today. Try flat shoes if you got the legs for it, and if not the best way to go is a feminine 3-4 cm high heal.

Monkey manicure

French manicure two weeks old looks corny, as well as rusty oriental jewellery. Also, don’t put 5 layers of polish on. The same goes for your toenails.

Underwear trouble

Nylon panties, too small thongs and halters are things to wear to bed, for a maximum of few hours. When put to everyday use they tend to get uncomfortable, rashy and twisted.

Disco makeup

Yes, you should make your makeup a bit heavier when going to poorly lit places, but don’t overdue it. Too dark powder, three layers of mascara and red blush can only make you look cheap. And it’ll melt down anyway.
