Cinco De FAB-O
In honor of Cinco De Mayo, FSF, presents these FIVE tips to get you fashionably through the rest of May and into the other summer months.
Uno: Loosey Goosey – as the heat kicks up outside, try to utilize loose, free-flowing options.
Floral Mini
This will allow heat to escape your body more easily and you’ll really enjoy that random breeze. (See floral mini by PAUL & JOE)
Dos: Up & At ‘Em – Experiment with hairstyles that keep your hair somewhat gathered. Loose buns or ponytails will keep hair of your neck, keeping you cooler. These styles are also good for outdoor activities.
Summer Style
Tres: Color Me Softer – Heat means using softer and brighter tones as opposed to deeper ones. From nail polish to lip gloss to accessories, try pinks and corals instead of reds and dark berries.
Cuatro: Protect and Pamper – In all the excitement of new summer styles don’t forget the most important thing is to protect your skin and face. SPF is the word, go for products that offer sun protection especially for your face and any skin that will be exposed.
Cinco: Express Yourself – This season is all about you. No time of year is better to find your own unique style, so get out there and do some digging. When your out, make mental note of what you like on people and what you don’t. Take it even further and see what works for those with your body type. Keep those styles in mind when you shop for yourself, and find the bargains that speak to the look you want to achieve.

HOT STUFF – Lips
Now that it is starting to warm up outside, you’ll be spending much more time outdoors. The beautiful days will beckon you and soon reading, eating, and other activities will be hosted by the breezes and sunrays. HOLD IT … Sunrays?!
Before we get all caught up in the warmth of it all, let’s make sure we are prepared to FACE the sunshine we’ll be basking in, by bumping up our SPF.
1st lets talk lips. Both guys and girls want to make sure to protect their pucker from to much sun exposure. The best smile in the world is no match for cracked-out lips (nobody wants to kiss that). Try Mario Badescu’s Lip Wax SPF 15, its like “super chapstick”!
MB Lip Wax
You’ll pay a few more bucks for it, but because it protects against wind, sun, cold, hot, whatever – you’ll get your money’s worth. It shields against UVA & UVB rays, contains palm oil, and smells pretty good too. - $5 at bluemercury.com
Ladies, you know the heat means lighter looks and brighter colors. Let us not get so focused on switching from the deep berry shade of lip gloss to a coral color that we forget to add sun protection.
e.l.f. Super Glossy Shine
Try e.l.f.’s Super Glossy Shine w/ SPF 15. They are practically giving it away at drugstore.com. – $1.49 at drugstore.com
Stay in touch with FSF as we’ll be bringing you more tips on how to look hot without getting burned.

Sass in the Summer
Goddess Maxi Dress
The New Summer Collection from Sassy Divas is hot off the fabric presses. The Summer Breeze ’09 Collection is based in delicate materials and solid color combinations. Some of the pieces look Mediterranean-coast inspired, like the white maxi dress with teal accents. On the other end of the spectrum, the “Modern Vintage Caftan” has a more night-out feel but maintains the same flirty personality.
The 2007 launched company describes itself as “a mix of vintage style with modern design.” You can see more of Sassy Divas at their website: www.sassydivas.com and shop for their line of T-Shirts at:www.shop.sassydivas.com. Also in the works from this designer is a Fall/Holiday Collection.
