So Ladies your homework as we covered two courses in one day is the following.

Make a time line a the era's 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and present. Get creative with this, there is no right or wrong in this assignment. Please produce a quality product as this will be used in your portfolio for future clients to view at photo shoots etc. Remember pictures will get you on the same page as to what your clients wants and needs are. 
Your second assignment is to come up with a collage of some sort of the different skin tones (Pink & Yellow) in the following...Ivory (Pale), Tan, Asian, African American...All together you should have eight photos.

Ten Must Haves for 2011



Cilicone Sticky Bra - No one wants to see cheesy bra strap lines when you are at an event I highly suggest the strapless/backless cilicone bra for those "little black dress" events!
Accesories - Chunky is IN!!!!! The bigger the better! Big rings, fun bracelets, Chunky necklaces! this is your year to go all out with the sparkle and shine!
Floral Print - I am a big believer that everyone needs to have one floral print flowey outfit hidden away in their closet, floral prints are very in this spring/summer so get ready to have a blast from the past! Tight is NOT always better loose, classy, flowing outfits are what is HOT right now!
Less is MORE - Sexiness is about being natural! So skip the tanning bed maybe spray?! Lose the acrylics and let your natural nails glow! I suggest BIOTIN which is the main ingredient in prenatal vitamins which helps your nails and hair grow faster! Have sun spots? Try even better by clinique to get a smoothe sexy complexion this spring/summer season!
Off the shoulder crop tops - Love this look! Too cute with a cami under neath!! Theres nothing more sexy then a little shoulder! Strut your stuff!
Hot Off The Press - Straighten your hair? I highly suggest hot off the press as it is one of the ONLY products which has worked on my crazy frizzy hair to protect against the harsh heat of a flat iron! Made by Paul Mitchell.
Black Track - M.A.C.'s black track is a 10 in 1 product you can do artistry designs or a slick line of liner on your lid for a quick glammed up look!
SPF - Remember SPF IS YOUR FRIEND!! Protect your skin this summer and make sure your morning moisturizer has some sort of spf protection in it on top of what your foundation might already have! Double up!
Personalized Swim Suit - Sick of going out to the lake and seeing your suit on the girl next to you?! There are so many amazing designers in our area who are truly affordable (Less then you would pay at Victoria Secret) who are waiting to design a suit for you! Get one of a kind this season and make it hot! If you have no idea where to go to this please email me and I will steer you in the right direction!
Being a part of Groupon or Living Social - Can't afford to go out and stuck inside!! Sign up for these sites and get daily tips and coupons up to 60% off for different fun exciting things to do in your area! Get off the couch and HAVE SOME FUN!
