Alessandra Ambrosio Found the Cheekiest Bikini Known to Mankind - and Only For $79!

When I'm home for the holidays, I pretty much live in oversize t-shirts and sweatpants as I shovel Christmas cookies down my throat and binge-watch Law & Order: SVU. But Alessandra Ambrosio? She's celebrating the festive time of year by frolicking on the beach in a skimpy bikini. The 37-year-old supermodel was just spotted on the shores of Brazil in an electric blue Triangl swimsuit that put all - and I mean all - of her assets on display.

Alessandra's ribbed two-piece featured a scoop-neck top and cheeky bottoms that made her legs look miles long, and she showed off her derrière as she waded into the water. She styled her cobalt bikini with a straw hat, round sunglasses, dainty necklaces, and gold bracelets. Keep reading to admire Alessandra's barely there swimwear from all angles, and shop her exact suit and similar styles for yourself.

100+ Street Style Looks That Defined 2018

I hadn't seen biker shorts worn with such fervor since my family's '91 trip to Disney; sequins took the streets in broad daylight (fun fact: I spotted a girl waiting for the bus in a paliette-covered pencil skirt before 8 a.m.); white boots had become more ubiquitous than a pair of blue jeans. Beyond the runway, it's these trends that defined street style in 2018.

Sure, if you had told us two years ago that we'd be styling biker shorts with blazers, we'd likely have laughed it off and pulled on our mom jeans, thankyouverymuch - but this year's style stars convinced us to dive right in. Not just that, either. We added logo bags to the rotation, threw on our shoulder bags (crossbody style!), and added cowboy boots and animal prints to mix things up. This year gave us nostalgia reimagined with a contemporary lens; in a nutshell, there was enough new outfit inspiration to last 365 days and then some. So, you'll forgive us if we'll be wearing these looks well into 2019.

Read on to relive the best street style looks of 2018, but feel free to file these away for future reference, too.

11 Apps That Will Help You Get Your Life Together

2018 is basically almost over. How’d your New Year’s resolutions work out? If the answer is a sheepish shrug, you’re not alone. It can be hard to keep on track of goals and new habits, whether it’s saving money or staying hydrated, especially when you’re already besieged by demands from work, friends, and family. That’s why you should let your phone do all the heavy lifting for you.

There are so many apps on the market these days for literally everything you can think of, so it can be overwhelming to sort through them all in an effort to find one that will work for you. That’s why we put together this list of the best apps that will help you get your shit together. We don’t recommend downloading every single app on this list, tempting as it will be; self-improvement is great, but you’re only human. Whatever your goals are, rest assured that there’s a brilliant app in this list that will help you reach them.

1. Level Money
When it comes to finance apps, everyone knows about Mint–and for good reason, because it’s a great app. But Level Money actually has an edge on Mint because of its ability to not only track your spending, but also concisely tell you what you can spend daily, weekly, and monthly. The simple layout presents information that’s easy to absorb at a glance, making it a no-brainer to stick to your budget.
Cost: Free.

2. Moment
If your goal for 2016 is to be more present in the moment and not constantly on your phone, download Moment. It’s an app that tracks how much time you spend on your phone and even helps you to set limits to your usage. If you go over, you’re actually forced off your phone and then have no choice but to pay attention to your surroundings. Your friends and family will appreciate it.
Cost: Free

3. iDrated
There’s a lot of hydration-tracking apps on the market but we particularly like iDrated for its simple and attractive graphics and its wealth of options. You can customize everything from your water intake goals (although the app offers recommendations) to the water measurement being in ounces or litres. Plus, you receive medals for reaching certain levels of hydration!
Cost: $0.99

4. My Mood Tracker
If you need to track your mood, whether you have a mood imbalance and you want to stay abreast of any changes (and share them with your doctor) or simply because you want to be happier in 2016, this is the app for you. The price might seem high but it’s worth it, because this app tracks sleep, exercise, medication, menstrual cycles, stress, pain, energy and stimulants–all to help you figure out why your mood goes up or down.
Cost: $9.99

5. Clue
Sometimes the best way to track and make sense of your mood is to track your period. Clue does exactly that for you, as well as telling you when you’re most likely to get pregnant and tracking things like mood, pain, and birth control pills. The best part: no trace of the hot pink design that so many other period tracking apps have.
Cost: Free.

6. Duolingo
If you ever wanted to learn a language, you no longer have an excuse to put it off. Duolingo is free to use and doesn’t require huge amounts of time–plus it’s fun to use, almost like a game. You can study Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Irish, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, or English on this app.
Cost: Free

7. The Johnson & Johnson Official 7 Minute Workout App
There’s a lot of workout apps out there, but some of them can be way too overwhelming. Whether you’re traveling or just really busy, this app helps you get in 7 minutes of intense exercise every day–which may not seem like much, but has actually been proven to be an effective workout.
Cost: Free

8. Sleep Cycle
This app is great because not only does it track your sleep patterns, it also wakes you up during the lightest portion of your sleep. This leaves you feeling more awake and rested than you would after waking up with a traditional alarm clock.
Cost: Free

9. Pomodoro Timer
If you have difficulty with time management, you need this app. Pomodoro helps you be more productive and procrastinate less by using the Pomodoro Technique, which is made up of 25 minutes of work and 3 to 5 minutes of a short break, and then a longer 10-15 minute break after four cycles of this. You can use this timer for everything from chores to working.
Cost: $1.99

10. Fashion Stylebook
Are you always late because you never know what to wear in the morning? Then you need this app, which is basically a closet assistant inside your phone. It uses images of your own clothes to help you figure out what to wear depending on the weather and your plans, and you can also search for outfit inspiration and even plan your packing ahead of time.
Cost: $3.99

11. Habit List
Whatever your New Year resolution is, whether it’s to drink less or floss more, this app will help you reach your goal. It tracks your progress day-by-day, and even allows you to schedule certain habits for certain days (such as going to the gym only on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday).
Cost: $3.99

5 Makeup Tricks to Hide the Hangover From Hell

We’ll point the finger at the friend who encouraged a third glass of wine with dinner, or the bartender who was too generous with his vodka-to-soda ratio. Whatever (whoever?) the reason may be for getting a little too cocktail-happy during a night on the town, we’ve accepted that it just happens sometimes. Bring on the unattractive consequences. Ideally, we’d spend a day post-party in the most cliché way possible: in bed with a big bag of greasy fast food and Netflix. Unfortunately, our schedules are too packed with brunches, errands, and of course, work, to allow ourselves a day of lounging around—especially during the week.

Instead, we need act like the grown-ups we are, wipe that hungover gaze from our faces and carry on with our commitments. But how do you fake being in prime condition while battling blotchy skin, glossy eyes and an overall look of near-death dehydration? We’re highlighting five products to add to your beauty regimen that’ll help keep your night of partying between you and your friends (and maybe your Instagram followers).

Browse the gallery below to learn the 5 best makeup tricks to hide a hangover.

#1. Brow Filler

The key to hiding your hangover is to look like you had a full night’s sleep. An easy way to get that bright-eyed, bushy-tailed look? Well-defined brows. Whether yours are Delevingne-worthy or thin and sparse, try a tinted eyebrow gel. The brush will tame unruly brows while the tint will give the appearance of fuller, thicker versions. A gel filler will ensure you achieve the perfect shape, and won’t flake or fade throughout the day.

#2. Cooling Eye Cream

We bet you didn’t get a good night’s sleep. And because of that, your eyes are guaranteed to look puffy and will probably be hard to keep open. Opt for an eye cream that will hydrate skin, reduce the appearance of dark circles and offers a cooling effect to make you feel more awake. It’s a quick pick-me-up in the morning, night, or on the go that is sure to give you a healthy, youthful look.

#3: Rose Toner

Whether you remembered to wash off your makeup or not, chances are you’re going to wake up after a night of boozing with a blotchy, dry face. For that, you need a few spritzes of a soothing, hydrating toner to prep your skin before applying your typical face cream. Toners remove impurities, clarify the complexion and reveal healthy-looking skin. So, they’re pretty much a necessity for concealing your under-the-weather state. Choose a toner with the calming aroma of roses, which is a natural restorative that will help enhance your irritable mood.

#4: Blue Eye Drops

Aside from the smell of alcohol seeping out of your pores, the one thing that can reveal a night of too much fun is your eyes. From the redness to the glossiness, they suck at keeping your hangover hush hush. The fix? Blue eye drops are a celebrity makeup artist secret for relieving redness, making you look awake and lively. Opt for one rich in natural plant extracts, as it will soothe the eye while offering a sparkling effect.

Innoxa Blue Drops 10ml ($47, amazon.ca )

#5. Moisturizing Tinted Lip Balm

All that alcohol has left you with quite the dehydrated pout. After exfoliating your lips to remove any dry flakes, apply a rich, buttery lip balm. Go for one that has been formulated with natural oils to condition lips and provides long-lasting hydration. Furthermore, an option that boasts a rosy tint and glossy finish is best, as it’s an easy way to brighten up your look and appear totally revitalized.
