Throw back :Power women in Chanel resort collection 2017.

  

Resort collections are delve into luxury. High end fashion houses takes people on cruise where people are vacationing and enjoying a fashion show alongside, intended towards rich people resort collections are presented amidst fashion season.

This year channels collection had a powerful modern women who is a feminist to the core and loves power suiting challenging all men around.

Karl Lagerfeild the maestro behind the collection is always careful as the collection might not get under shadowed by the beautiful location, Havana, Cuba this time.

Panama hats are always a symbol of a powerful women as they are inspired by chauvinistic cowboys from the west. So if you want to look dominant it is very wise to add a panama to your look besides this panama hats also set you up in a vacay mood usually worn on vacations.

Another element that was a highlight of the collection was ties wide embellished ties, ties remind you of an office setting where woman don’t wear ties, so a women wearing tie symbolize I am the boss.

There were wide legged as well skinny jeans.

Lapelled jackets were worn on a flounced dress.

The entire collection was monochrome black and white along with pastel pink kind of like millennial pink.

These are my personal favs from the collection pics are taken from vogue magazine.

the braid test

Rebounding, protein treatment,morrocan oil treatment, scalp conditioning etc are some of the most favoured treatments we Millennials splurge on for our hair care, without any doubt those are marvelous treatment with instant results, but they can wreck havoc for hair’s health. Nourishing your hair and letting it breathe is the key to healthy hairs.

So,I have come up with an idea to assess the amount of damage done to your hair. I call it the braid test this will help you analyze your hair and understand its problem following are the steps to this eye opening test

First braid all of your hair as you normally would.

Now check the following

THICKNESS:

thin hair

healthy hair

This will help you keep in check whether the amount of hair falling out of your head is normal or does it needs help, if the thickness of your braid is about 1-1.5 of an inch and you have thin to medium hair, then it is good if you braid seems thinner than that of what you see in the pictures it’s a sign of damaged hair.

DRYNESS:

Like your skin, your hair needs moisture as well, so take the end of your braid to check weather your hair is well moisturized or thirsty.take the end of your braid and brush it over your face like a makeup brush if it feels like you are using an expensive brush then your hair is on track if it feels like a low quality makeup brush then it’s time to give your hair some moisture.
