Best dressed celebrity couples of 2013

The world of celebrity is oozing with super stylish celebrity couples at the moment; so this week we have decided to give you our pick on those luscious lovebirds whose flawless personal style sizzles on and off the red carpet on a continual basis.  

1. Victoria and David Beckham - 
 
Posh and Becks are fashion royalty as far as the celebrity worlds goes; David opts for a smart sophisticated suit while Victoria dazzles in a halter neck midi-dress with a pop of this seasons colour dusky pink. Can this couple get any more hotter?
 
2. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West -
 
Kim and Kanye are one super hot couple; Kim flaunts her curves in an on trend PVC nude pencil skirt teamed with a simple white tee and nude heels. Kanye styled a long V-neck grey jumper with ripped denim jeans, brown boots and a gold chain for added bling.
 
 3. Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan -
 
Possibly one of the most beautiful celebrity couples ever to exist, Mark and Michelle tick all the boxes for us when it comes down to that all important wardrobe. Mark chooses a classy fitted pinstriped suit whilst Michelle shines in an elegant sparkly floor length dress.
 
 4. Olivia Palermo and Johannes Huebl -
 
Reality TV star Olivia and model boyfriend Johannes are one perfectly polished couple. We love Olivia's black leather dress teamed with a gorgeous clutch and cute heels. Joahannes looks effortless in a grey suit teamed with a contrast of dark brown shoes. Get Oliva's look by heading over to Pretty Pink Princess and check out our new in pretty poison dress. Link here.   
 
 4. Fazer and Ashley
 
Our Princess Ashley and Fazer make one sensationally stunning couple. Ashley wears our pretty petal bandage dress (now out of stock) whilst Fazer opts for a suited and booted look minus the tie and shirt.
 
 
What other celebrity couples do you think are the best dressed?

Kim Kardashian inspired make-up look ♥


Christmas is around the corner (5 weeks today in fact!) which only means one thing in our calendar....hello party season! From work do's to family parties, now is the time to purchase our outfits, plan our hair and practise our make-up looks - if only it was that simple! As you may or may not know, Kim Kardashian has been a massive style inspiration upon Pretty Pink Princess dresses, featuring many of her trademark styles such as, plunge necks, cut-out sections and gorgeous bodycon fittings. A statement LBD such as the Pretty Prudence (featured below) is perfect for those festive parties, combining a classic black dress with an ultra glam edge. Make sure you head over to website and check it out girls by clicking here.
 To help give you full party perfection and a sprinkle of Kim Kardashian glamour, here is a step-by-step tutorial on how to get a simple bronzed smokey eye and big red lips like Kim herself!

For this look I thought it would be a good idea to use an affordable eye shadow quad instead of using multiple high end eyes shadows - that way you only need this one quad to achieve this look! I will be using the Maybelline Diamond Glow in 02 Coral Drama.
 
Step 1 - Take the lightest eye shadow in the quad - the white sparkly colour and apply this to the inner corner of your eye like below.
Step 2- Next take  the light bronze colour next to it in the quad and apply this to the left of the white eye shadow.
 

Step 3 - Next take the next colour in the quad, the darker bronze shade, and apply this to the crease of your eye. Make sure you really blend this in and keep building it up.

Step 4-  Next using a small eye shadow brush, take the final colour in the pallet (the darkest one) and make a line like this " <  " in the outside corner of your eye. Blend well.  Take a liquid eye liner and line the top of your eye like in the picture below.

Step 5 - Next apply a pair of fake eyelashes - wait for them to dry and make sure they feel secure ( tip - on a cold low setting blast the hairdryer over them) then add a coat of mascara to the top and bottom of your lashes. Grab your eye shadow brush and sweep a little of the light bronze colour used in step 2 under your bottom lash line. After this step take a lip liner and line your lips - I used red by MAC - then take a red lipstick ( I am using a mixture of scarlet ibis and Russian red by MAC). You should then have something like the pictures below >>
 
 

Hope you like this look - if you have any questions please feel free to ask!

How to get Nicole Scherzinger's 'Shamazing' big hair

Nicole Scherzinger has been the talk of the town lately; not only for her 'to die' for wardrobe but now for her shamazing HUGE hair, which is causing major hair envy among us girls.
 
The Xfactor pulled out the classic 'Disco theme' this weekend in which Nicole embraced down to a tee. The sensationally stunning judge teamed massive 70's inspired curly hair alongside a low-cut sparkly midnight blue dress.  
 
Nicole Scherzinger has been a massive style inspiration within this seasons new collection from Pretty Pink Princess. 'Pretty Blue Sparkles' in particular features a low-cut neck, sequins and a figure hugging bodycon fit which will be sure to turn plenty of heads this party season! It is available to buy on the website now so click here to take a look!  
 Alongside this gorgeous shimmering sequin number team big 'shamazing hair' - Here is a quick step by step tutorial on how to get MASSIVE hair like Nicole.  
 
Step 1 - First of all you will need a thin barrelled wand as pictured below - (it is important that the barrel is thin as this is what is going to create them small tight curls!) Next take a small section of hair like pictured below. For this look you are going to be using lots of small sections of hair to curl (try not to curl thick sections as you want lots of curls, this is what creates the volume and thickness - so it requires a bit of patience!)
Step 2 -  Wrap your hair around the wand away from you (if that makes sense), if you look in the picture of the direction I am curling my hair this might help you. Make sure you curl the whole way up your hair - so you want a curl from root to the end of your hair. Be sure to curl the end bits ( I know I am holding the end here, but after you have let this curl drop go back over so that the end is curled and not straight. Repeat the curling technique all around your hair so that it is all curled.
   
After you have curled a few it should look like this -

Step 3 - When you have finally curled all of your hair, tip your head upside down and spray sparingly with hairspray (this will give you lots of volume!). Finally, give a quick spray all over your hair and hopefully you should get something like this....

























Hope you found this useful!
