Valentine's Day Makeup Look - Purple Smoked Eyes & Pink Frosted Lips

Hey Loves,

So this is a Valentine's day look perfect if you want to ditch the over-done red & white theme of the day, but still chic with a hint of sass. 
I love this look because it is so versatile for different kinds of dates : maybe you will be spending V-Day with your girls, your boo, or just your glam-self ! This look will be appropriate for all these!

Look 1

Here I am wearing big, big hair for that Diana Ross glam effect! This hair look will be perfect for a girls night out. I would pair this with blue skinnies (high-waisted but of course!), a white v-neck loose fitting tee (tucked in the front) and nude heels = Instant Chic. Top of with a biker jacket if it is chilly outside and finish off with a clutch purse .

 
Look 2

This I would wear for a sit down dinner with the boo. I would pair this with an LBD (midi & body-con) with gold accessories, black clutch box purse and black cut out heels = Instant Sophistication

HAIR HOW TO - REFRESH YOUR OLD WEAVE

Hi Loves
So I had this awesome weave installed on Dec 29th and I have been loving creating different looks on it. 

But if you know me, you would know how much I don't like looking almost the same for long. 

So I decided to refresh my weave with a cut and a bit of TLC- if you want to dodge the salon trip & hassle, keep reading

  
Now proceed to curl the hair. You can just straighten it with an iron at this stage as an alternative. I wanted curls, so I went for my flexi rods.

 And this is the finished result.....I think it came out pretty awesome. See you don't always have to break the bank to look good!

The video tutorial is up on my  YouTube for how to achieve this hair. Check it out on this link here 
If you want a tutorial on the turquoise green smoked eye-look, just leave a comment on the picture on my Instagram and I will record the tutorial.

Screen Actors Guild Awards - Red Carpet Report

Hi Loves,

The SAG Awards were on this weekend and of course Hollywood royalty came out in all its glory to grace the red carpet. So here’s my take on what were the hits, and a very very bad miss that deserves a handsome fine; and of course the makeup looks that stood out for me that I feel are appropriate for summer. Enjoy!

Miss World 2014/15 - Our very own Miss South Africa Rolene Strauss!!!!

Hey Loves,

                                     Compliments of the New Year!!!!!! Ching, Salute!!!!

I am very much excited for the projects I have planned for 2015 and I hope to share with you guys so we can all inspire each other and also grow in our creativity and influence.

So today's post is a late special dedication to our very own Rolene Strauss, who is the currently reigning Miss World! Miss Strauss is from Volkrust and is a refreshing nod to South African beauties from the Miss World beauty pageant in 40 years!!
So I felt it was justice to have her as the first blog entry of 2015- a positive encouragement that dreams coupled with hard work, dedication, discpline and a goal can come true.

 In her own words ( First Diary Entry dated January 6th ) she says of the experience so far "During the first few weeks as Miss World, my heart was truly touched by the hopes and dreams I see in children's eyes when I speak to them. It gives me the courage to work towards a better future for those who hope and dream."

+Rolene Strauss we at isabellacoza.com salute you and we hope your year of reign will be an opportunity for you to shine your light in many lives as a positive influence; we believe you will do so ( in designer heels but of course)! Lots of love and success in your future endeavors.

So my beautiful & oh so chic glamazons ....... here's to a year of creative greatness
