My husband asked me if I ever plucked my eyebrows, because he never saw me doing it, yet they looked plucked all the time. The answer is no, I do not pluck them and I have never had to. I am blessed in that manner – thank goodness. As a good tip – you should keep them plucked and don’t let them go everywhere. Keep any hair shaved, even if it is during the winter time. Soft skin with no hair looks and feels sexy.

I always thought earrings looked great, no matter what time of the year is. I personally like wearing the big hoop earrings. I like the dangly type. When you do this, make sure you do not wear any necklace that clashes with them. This can really break a look.

You should be careful with your clothing. You do not have to be super trendy. Just make sure those clothes are clean and it is the style that suits you the best. Don’t wear clothes that are too tight, but don’t wear clothes that are too baggy. The clothes should fit your body style. We are all made differently. Some have large hips, some have broad shoulders and some have no backside. Shop for clothes that compliment your body style.

For your makeup, I believe natural is beautiful. Applying makeup everyday is fine, just don’t put too much. Remember, there is a different between daily makeup and evening makeup. For those with flawless skin, try only mascara and lipstick. If you have some skin problems, powder is acceptable.

Sure, you may have some extra weight on your body, but you should not let this bother you. Before I go any further, I do not want to be accused on this blog of making women think it is okay to be overweight, which I have heard some real rude comments in the past on this one. So, just hear what I have to say, okay? There are times when we have to be happy with what we have, because we cannot lose weight overnight. So, this is one of those times. I want you to be happy. When you are happy and have confidence, you are sexy. Many guys are attracted to these type of women. Guys are attracted to confidence. Many large women get compliments. Remember, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. We don’t just live in a “skinny girl world.” There is room enough for big girls as well. So, stop setting yourself apart from everyone else. Stop looking at yourself as if you weren’t meant to be in the clothing store and go!
