  • Fashion maven: Showing off the versatile skirt

    I absolutely adore skirts, especially in the summer. They can be colorful, voluminous, comfortable, and they can be worn well with heaps of accessories.
    Believe it or not, skirts can actually be just as flattering as a pair of perfect skinny jeans,
    The best skirts are ones that end just above, or two inches above the knee and float outward from the hip. T
    hese are called short A-line skirts. Usually, since the skirt moves outward from the hip, it has tiny little pleats just underneath the waistband to add a little volume. This type of skirt volume will enhance your legs.

  • ‘Transformers’ get cleaned up

    As you might recall in 2009, “Transformers 2” left most of us with feelings teetering between disappointment and outrage. Two years later, Michael Bay released a third Transformers movie, and it’s safe to say that the director took some of Transformers 2’s negative feedback to heart.
    It’s certainly not hard to make a movie that can trump “Transformers 2,” and there are still a few notable issues in “Transformers 3,” such as some very crude humor and a bland love story. 
    For the most part, however, you’ll likely be laughing at the good jokes and loving the intense action sequences, and you may not immediately care about  the faults in “Transformers: Dark of the Moon.”

  • Less is more when it comes to wearing makeup

    It really is amazing how your eyes can make a huge difference in the way that your face looks. Many people have the common misconception that eyes must be overdone, with either too much mascara, horrific neon-tinted eye shadow, or too much eyeliner. An important tip to remember whenever you are putting on any type of makeup is that less is more.
    Subtle makeup that enhances your eyes will make them look larger, wider and more beautiful. Although there are different colors and combinations of eyeliner and eye shadow that can all enhance your eyes, this article will focus only on one style that will work for all eyes.

  • Get out and about to beat the summer doldrums

    Most teens all are so anxious for summer to start, that they often forget to plan things to do when summer actually begins, so they spend most of their summer inside, doing nothing at all. This can be the summer when things change.
    One thing to do this summer is to wake up earlier and get active. Try getting a group of friends together and go to Ashley Pond for a morning yoga session. Some other ideas are to go swimming at one of the local pools, go hiking or biking on one of the many trails in Los Alamos, or just go for a simple walk.

  • Review: No twist in the tide for newest 'Pirates' movie

    Just when you thought the “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies were over, the fourth installment of the popular Disney pirate series hits the big screen.
    Jerry Bruckheimer produces the movie as he did with the previous three. Changes in the movie include the absence of Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley’s characters, and the replacement of Gore Verbinski, who directed the first three pirate movies, with Rob Marshall (“Memoirs of a Geisha,” “Annie”).     
    “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” follows Captain Jack Sparrow played by Johnny Depp (“Once Upon a Time in Mexico,” “Secret Window”) on a quest to find the famed fountain of youth.
