| give a gentle tug on once in a while to pay homage to | | | | tummy coverage. If you're spilling over the bra cups, |
| their inner caveman. Save your money on expensive | | | | camoflauge with a thicker fabric shirt or sweater. The |
| haircuts. Instead, have a friend trim those tresses at | | | | Lumpy Look is a semi-emergency situation that |
| home (or do it yourself). Split ends are never in style | | | | demands action. Either hit the stores for a bigger size, |
| no matter what look you're sporting.2. Cut your hair | | | | or get on Weight Watchers ASAP because girl, you're |
| short. I know; I just told you to grow it and now I'm | | | | in trouble.8. Eyes or Lips - not both. The key to being |
| saying cut it. If you're one of those pixie-face girls with | | | | tastefully attractive is downplaying one feature while |
| milky skin and great shoulders who can leave the | | | | up-playing another. If you decide to go with smoky |

| be Neiman Marcus. A denim mini that you paid 14 | | | | are all talking about how silly you look behind your |

| models are sporting in your copy of Vogue, if you | | | | years you'll resemble a Ball Park hot dog that's been |
| dress it up in just the right way.4. Exfoliate. Ditch the | | | | on the grill for far too long. Tan in a bottle is no better, |
| foundation, ladies. Your boyfriend doesn't apply beige | | | | especially with those telltale brown creases behind |
