Pick of the Day: Nautical Tote
By Joanna Douglas, Senior Fashion and Beauty Editor | Fashion – Fri, Jul 13, 2012 12:24 PM EDTFind it Fridays: Sparkly Flats
By Joanna Douglas, Senior Fashion and Beauty Editor | Fashion – Fri, Jul 13, 2012 11:26 AM EDTHello, and welcome back to Find it Fridays! My latest challenge for Shine's weekly fashion scavenger hunt came from a reader named Elm. Here is the item she's looking for:
"Blake Lively's crystal flats. I read they were made by Louboutin, but are way too expensive. I need something similar because they are so darn cute and go with everything! Under $50 preferably."
Hi, Elm! Blake Lively's shoes are in fact Christian Louboutins, and they retail for a whopping $2,400! While real crystals can't be had for only $50 you can definitely replicate the look of these multicolor flats with glitter or rhinestones. As always, I've found 10 items I felt achieved what you were looking for and stayed within your budget. Please let me know if you like these choices. Readers: please weigh in on which one you think Elm should pick! Do you have any additional tips on where she can find sparkly flats? Let her know in the comments.

--Joanna Douglas, Senior Fashion and Beauty EditorHow to Pull Off Candy Colored Hair
By Joanna Douglas, Senior Fashion and Beauty Editor | Author Blog Posts – Wed, Jul 11, 2012 8:18 PM EDTRainbow colored hair isn't just for pop stars with outrageous wardrobes like Lady Gaga and Nicki Minaj. Celebs with a sense of style we really trust like Nicole Richie and Kate Bosworth have shown us that candy colored locks are completely wearable. Here are three ways to get the look:
1. Try colored extensions or test out a wig. It's noncommittal, fun for a night, and will give you an idea if you're ready for something more permanent.
2. Seek an expert. Find a salon near you that offers bright colored dye and bring in a photo of a realistic look you'd like to achieve.
3. DIY. We'd recommend buying rubber gloves, a thick paintbrush to help with application, and a jar of petroleum jelly (apply it along your hairline so dye doesn't stain your skin). In terms of dye, Manic Panic's semi-permanent hair color is the best. It's lasts four to six weeks. The company also offers bleach kits and Hair Color Styling Gel that shampoos right out.
