ANNABELLA DAILY

Hello brunettes! You can now get a gorgeous hair color at home with natural hair dye. 

Being a bit of a hair snob, I only used to color my hair at fancy salons like Aveda (they are the most natural) or not at all. But with my busier-than-ever work schedule, I couldn't make time for the appointment and also wanted to rather spend the $$$ on a cute new dress and hair dye. Hair coloring at New York salons can be really expensive. 

I had noticed NATURCOLOR At-Home Natural Hair Dye at Whole Foods (http://www.naturcolor.com/) and finally dared to make the leap to trying to do this on my own, at home. I used the 4C, Twinberry Chestnut. Let me know what you think of the results in the YouTube comments or Tweet  me at https://twitter.com/annabelladaily!   

Valentine's Day is coming up! It's the perfect occasion to get really dressed up for a date and amp up your sex appeal - especially if you have been with your guy for a long time.

If you don't have an ideal date, VD can be a bit annoying when everything around you is about pink hearts! But, if you are truly looking for love, this is a perfect time for a little reflection with a flute of champagne.

In this video, with three dating outfits, I also included three dating tips that I used when I was dating and hoping to meet my husband. I'm now married so I guarantee they work:-) 

I would love to hear YOUR ideas on how to look sizzling on a date and how to find The One. Leave a comment on YouTube, here or Tweet me at https://twitter.com/missqqastyle

With love from Brooklyn, 

This past holiday, my husband and I celebrated our first Christmas and New Year's as a married couple not with a family gathering, but with a two week adventure in Morocco.

If you are a fellow travel junkie too, join me on this trip through one of the most mesmerizing cities in the world, Marrakech. I'll send air kisses from the Sahara desert for everyone who subscribes below to get my weekly videos!

With love from Morocco, 

How to make high heels comfortable? After-work holiday parties can be tough on your feet. Think: You'll be on heels all day long! Here are my secret tips on How to Be Comfortable in High Heels & Walk Like a Model (from my modeling days) so you are ready to go rock that party! 

PS. I actually broke my sesamoid bone because of overuse of heels so this is all very important in not just making you feel more comfortable and feeling less pain in the sky-highs, but can also be crucial to the health of your feet!

After I turned 30, I have been testing every possible anti-aging treatment under the sun that's organic, natural and free of animal-derived ingredients. Sadly, nothing matched the results of a light chemical peel... until I tested the Naturalis EASY MASK. The affect was instantaneous and reduced fine lines and illuminated my skin unlike anything I had ever tried. Check out my video below to learn more about this Italian Ecocert-certified organic mask and how to use it for magical results. 

if you get as excited about it as I am, we have an exclusive introductory MISSQA discount for the holidays only! See the offer below and treat yourself to look and feel your best; the single mask makes an amazing gift as well. If you have tried the mask already, let me know what you think!

James Bond Girls always look sexy and sophisticated and the Tarte Holiday 2012 Set "Carried Away" is the perfect tool to get the grey smoky eyes and nude lips with eco-friendly and cruelty-free makeup. My hair looks like Bond Girl Camille's from Quantum of Solace, but this makeup works well if you have long hair and want to resemble the new Bond girl from Skyfall too!

I never wear jeans in the summer (too hot!), but absolutely love them in the fall. I have one fantastic pair of ankle length dark wash Levis with white sticking (casual) and one pair of high waisted dark wash Prairie Underground jeans with two zippers at the front (fancy and cool, but the zippers come undone if I sit down for too long or eat a full dinner so they dont work for dinner parties:-)

Vogue has featured faux fur as a "glamorous," even "cinematic" option! This gorgeous piece is by DKNY Jeans. The word in the Twitter world is that the coat only comes in black ($495). I have Tweeted DKNY Jeans (as I, for one, would love to white one), so be sure to follow us on Twitter to get the scoop! 

The last two years I lived in Finland (until I was 19), I used to shiver in wintertime repeating a mantra: “I’ll soon live in Los Angeles, I will soon live in sunshine!” –I had decided not to invest in warm clothes anymore.
