It doesn't matter who designed it or how much it cost, even with Jennifer Lopez's enviable, curvaceous toned figure,
if the dress don't fit, don't wear it.
Evening gowns are the ultimate one-time wear and therefore always available, in abundance, in charity shops and dress agencies.
We picked up a fabulous La Perla, couture, trimmed with swarkovski crystals, tickets still on, for only £3 from the British Red Cross in Acocks Green, Birmingham.
So our Top Hollywood Look For Less tip, when it comes to special event dressing, buying new, the jokes on you! and J-Lo, the La Perla dress is yours, on us, if you feel like giving charity a much needed boost.

Pick Me Up Ponytail

We all need a little help with wrinkles and loose facial skin once we reach the ripe old age of forty plus but not all of us are lucky enough to be able to afford a botox fix or face-lift.

Softer Hands With Natural Brands.
@ 2008-12-31 – 10:07:51
The sun always shines in Hollywood and soft hands never do dishes, so the need for a miracle credit crunch hand treatment is non existent.
The UK on the other hand has bitter cold winters that take up almost half a year and often leave us with chapped, rough and dried out skin. If money is no object, Chanel body cream is perfect for keeping your hands smooth, soft and more youthful looking.
Our Top Hollywood Look For Less tip is maybe not as fancy or expensive but without a shadow of doubt, will do the same job.
Sea salt with olive oil and a couple drops of your favorite scent mixed together, is all you need. The salt scrubs off any dead skin, olive oil moisturizes and the scent drops make it smell good.
Rub this mixture all over your hands then put on some thin plastic gloves with woolen ones on top and sleep like a baby while your hands indulge to help turn back time.
