We've always been plagued with that horrible situation of good girls liking bad boys. It's like Inception (the film), the plot really isn't complex as you think; it's more about the thrill factor rather than understanding what's going on. As always, people love to over-analyze things and make simple things into tired complex situations. It's really not that difficult. Good girls are attracted to bad boys because they see that hint of hope inside that "bad boy's" eyes. It's like a sub-conscious feed making them delusional - good girls think they can change those bad boys for the better. That, ladies and gentleman, is pure stupidity. They really do fool themselves and end up with heart ache.
I am sure the ladies who are in the wiser group would agree that it has plenty to do with self-esteem. The maturity level of those "good girls" is surprisingly lower than you believe. They are not, what we call, realist. They dream too much. Too much of anything is bad. There are fantasies and outlandish dreams and there are the more realistic dreams - dreams that can be achieved with the right resources. Ladies and gentleman, there is no dream within a dream here. It's as clear as a glass of filtered water. No hidden meanings, no lessons to be learned at the end just disappointment. To those 'good girls' out there, it's a lost cause. Give it up while you are ahead. Biggest mistake by anyone in that type of situation is the lack of patience.
We are too quick to get that easy-fix, which is temporary. Good things do happen to those who wait.

~ Ladies First ~
I have mentioned a couple of times already in past posts on how much I loved this seasons new looks. One of the main reasons was the makeup job on the runways. The models were covered in the lightest amount of makeup as possible. The 'natural' look (the true essence of beauty is natural beauty) was the face to have with all those wonderful layers of clothing. The beauty was found simply adding makeup to the main features to a model's face. If you have a wonderful full set of lips, the bold color lip-stick should be applied. The same goes with eyelashes, a bold color of mascara does it all. Applying these will highlight those best features of your face which gives the lack of make-up to the rest of your face a much needed break.
I always say, to look your best apply the lightest amount to capture that natural look. Foundation is one of those that can be over done by many women. Remember, natural. You cannot apply too much to where the actual shade of your skin has transformed. The effect you want is to have it the same shade of color of your natural skin and make your face glow (see Leighton's look in the pic). You need a neat and clean complexion and not an embarrassing one. I beg of you, ladies, do not purchase cosmetics by the glamor behind it. Most likely, they will harm your skin. Be smart and only apply cosmetics that will not only enhance your face but also keep it healthy. Even the celebs have trouble at times with the occasional pimple. We are not perfect so don't feel obligated to cover your face with unnecessary products.
The overall look to have here is to apply make-up in the correct manner where people won't realize you actually have make-up on.

- Gentleman Tip of the Day -
Good guys do not always finish last. Gentleman, your reputation alone demands the proper lady. I'm talking about marriage material. Taking tips from men like George Clooney and other gentleman in his fashion, will help you immensely. There are a few things to have a successful relationship with a woman and with the right woman. The best thing you can do is simply be yourself, be that gentleman. Although, there are characteristics to work on or maintain.

1. Gentleman do not kiss and tell. I know women are notorious about discussing their sex lives with their girlfriends. The proper ladies, of course, will keep the details to a minimum. For most guys, we really don't make a large issues of what we do with the opposite sex. This little characteristic shouldn't even be that difficult. Blasting your business in public is not the gentlemanly thing to do or is it wise. 
2. You must act your age not just dress the part. I'm 25 turning 26 so I'm still somewhat connected to my child within. I'm not too far from hitting my 30s so it's important to make that transition in a classy manner. You have to behave yourself in the most respectful manner around a lady. Let me put it this way, imagine your father wanted to re-do his entire wardrobe. A closet of what? Baggy jeans and over-sized hoodies. He want that hip look, to look cool. Embarrassing right? It should be and if you think otherwise, shame on you. That perfect type of woman is not only interested in your youth but also the experience you have in the bag. She wants someone stable. A man who knows how to balance fun and seriousness.
3. The company you keep is as important as the others. Gentleman only surround themselves with inspiring figures - around other gentleman or ladies. Other human beings who are genuine and not just all swagger and style. Your friends should have the other two qualities as well. The genuine self is seen through integrity. Never have someone in your friends circle to question your integrity. The same goes for you. Morals and ethics should always be in tact and never feel to have them questioned. 
4. Charm your way into her heart. To have charisma is one of the biggest sex appeals clear to women. You have to know when to be funny and how to deliver that humor. It's being hilarious in a tasteful manner not to a point where she will raise her hand to give you a good one across your face. Charm is seen through every action you commit to around a lady. It's seen through being polite and (never forget) your confidence. I know some say you either have charm or you don't. Some are born with it others aren't. I believe in order to be a gentleman you can achieve charm by practice and behaving properly.
