The new issue of Harper’s Bazaar hits newsstands June 1st. This issue features an intimate family scene with Bristol Palin and her son, Tripp, in a tea party-themed fashion spread. It showcases gowns by Carolina Herrera, Lanvin, Isaac Mizrahi, and Michael Kors. In the interview, she opens up about her new life as a working single mom and more.

On being pregnant during the 2008 presidential campaign: “It’s not like we all sat down and were like, ‘Alright, here’s the birds and the bees.’ Truly, my parents just assumed that I wasn’t doing anything. And it was a shock for us all.”

“It was kind of humiliating. . .Great, I’m 17 years old, I’m 40 pounds overweight with a big belly on me, all my friends are at school watching this on the news. This kind of sucks.”

On taking responsibility as a working single mother (Bristol works as a medical assistant, serves as an ambassador for Candie’s foundation, and fully supports herself and her baby): “I’m on my own. I’m really proud of it. I’m a hard worker.” “I don’t have time for friends or anything like that. It’s just like, Right, crap, there is a hockey game tonight that I want to go to but I can’t. Or, I do have to go to work today, because I’ve got bills to pay.”

On dating: Bristol is not seeing anyone at the moment: “I’m in no rush. One day I’ll find a nice guy.”

On her son, Tripp: “I thought I would be somewhere warm at college with my friends, but that was definitely not possible with having Tripp. I love my baby more than anything. He’s like a Gerber baby. He’s the cutest baby in the whole world…I just want Tripp to be happy and healthy.”

Sarah Palin on her daughter, Bristol: “We’re very proud of her for taking responsibility. It’s not an easy road, but it’s the right road. Decisions were made, and we can’t unwind those decisions. Consequences are being dealt with. I’m sincerely proud of her.”

The right styling products, tools & accessories for summer hair

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

Pretty summer hair is easy to achieve with the proper hairstyling tools, products and accessories. This summer, the way to go is with effortlessly pretty hair.

Braids are easy to create with Samy Under Control Molding Wax. Take your pick of a basic braid, a side braid or a French braid and create it slightly askew. This product is flake free and holds your style all day long.

You can’t go wrong this summer with natural waves. They are beach chic and require a minimal effort using Samy Big Curls Defining Crème for a natural texture. You can enhance those waves with the new White Sands Curling Iron. It uses Marcel’s wave technique and has a Spring Load option.

Curly unmanageable hair can be transformed with a BRAZILIAN SILK by DAR-X professional keratin treatment. It leaves hair frizz-free, healthy & shiny. This salon only treatment accompanied with BRAZILIAN SILK by DAR-X at-home care products will last for months.

Ballerina Buns are all the rage for summer. Secure hair into a tight clean bun. Use Samy The Hairspray to tame the flyaways around the hairline and keep the style in place.

Add some highlights or enhance them with Champagne Gold Bling Strands tie in hair accessories. You can simply tie them in yourself and they stay in for days.

For a Hippie or Bohemian look wear a True Birds Bohemian Band right across the hairline or at the crown of the head.

Hip headscarves are available in myriad of colors and patterns, work well with short or long hair and are great for bad hair days. Wrap one from Juicy Couture around a ponytail or wear it as a headband secured with some bobby pins.

The White Sands Curling Iron. It’s a Dream styling tool…a must have! It utilizes both Marcel (for professionalism) & Spring load (for ease of control) styling methods. It has a temperature range of 122 – 410°F. The heat is distributed perfectly. It emits negative ions to create softness and silkiness. The barrel rotates. The styling options are endless. The NEW collection of White Sands Curling Irons gives us the best of both worlds. I’m de-cluttering right now to make a permanent space for this in my beauty closet! whitesandsproducts.com
