I can't tell you how many times I've bought sunglasses I swore looked AH-MAZING, just for my friends to tell me later that they don't flatter my face.

The 5 hottest plus-size models in the industry

It's about time we see more and more plus-sized models being embraced. There was a time when all I'd see is skeletal skinny girls posing in clothing ads and on the cover of fashion magazines. The world's obsession with being frail thin was starting to take a very dangerous route. Hence why so many young girls these days struggle with eating disorders.

7 Tips to make walking in your heels more comfy than flats

For me, dressing up just isn't complete without a pair of high heels. But spending hours at a time in heels (especially when I'm out dancing) can really wreak havoc on my feet. According to a recent survey by the College of Podiatry, 20 percent of women claim they start to feel pain within only 10 minutes of wearing high heels. This really doesn't surprise me. I can't tell you how many times I've wound up having to go bare foot in the middle of a dance floor, and believe me it's NOT cute!

The truth is that as painful as they may be, none of us ever plan on giving our heels up. Luckily there are ways to make your heels a little less painful and little more bearable, even on those extra long nights. Check out a few of my tips below!

It looks like Jessica Alba is back on her acting game. The Honest Company founder recently posted some super cute photos on her Instagram account from the set of her new movie, Dear Eleanor.

¿Quién dijo que las "rellenitas" no tienen lo suyo?

A pesar de que la mujer perfecta continúa siendo la imagen ideal de las campañas de publicidad de moda, lo cierto es que hay muchas mujeres que están hartas de ello. "Atractiva y Gorda" es el nombre de la campaña que creó Jes Baker una bloguera talla 22, que realizó una sesión de fotos con un joven modelo para criticar los comentarios que hiciera el presidente de la marca, Mike Jeffries con los que ofendió a aquellas mujeres que son más de talla 10.

Muchas latinas también tienen tallas mayores a ésta porque si algo nos caracteriza son las carnitas, las curvas y las caderas y estamos orgullosas de ello. Te contamos mas sobre la exitosa campaña, aquí.

Latina celebs who forgot their undies on the red carpet!

Apparently Eva Longoria has joined the club of celebrities who like to leave the house without underwear on. In fact, she had a pretty mortifying experience at the premiere of the Jimmy P.

She must have been absolutely horrified. Seriously, what's up with celebs going commando on the red carpet?

Jennifer Lopez was spotted the other day leaving a N.Y.C. hotel wearing a sheer floral blouse paired with fitted cream trousers. What could have technically been a super sophisticated outfit resulted in a serious fashion miss, because the only thing anyone noticed was the pop star's visible nude bra. I'm not going to lie, this didn't exactly come to me as a surprise. After all, J.Lo is kind of known for her super racy ensembles. I mean who could forget that green plunging Versace number she wore to the 2000 Grammy Awards?
