Wanna know our SECRET?!?

Hey guys,

We just wanna thank you for the comments and feedback on our blog. You have no idea how much we appreciate all your input. And obviously we're doing these blogs and youtube videos for you guys, to keep you entertained and maybe to teach you a couple tips and tricks. So again a HUGE THANK YOU TO YOU ALL!!

So let's talk about our little secret. It's not so much of a secret. Recently I (Dee) bought a book called 'The Secret' by Rhonda Byrne. This book was recommended by a close friend of mine, and we've been talking about the main point, which is the law of attraction, for quite some time (2 years to be exact). I never got really into it, until I've started seeing the change in my friends life.

I was really intrigued and so I bought the book. And let me tell you MAJOR LIFE CHANGING!

So the great secret of life is the Law of Attraction. In other words, like attracts like. When you think a thought, you are also attracting like thoughts to you. And you're somewhat of a human transmitter, transmitting a frequency with your thoughts.

This means that if you have good thoughts, good things will come back. However if you have bad thoughts, bad things will come. It's not that easy mastering this skill of good thoughts. As seen in yesterdays blogpost, everyone goes through tough times and it consumes you, it eats you up inside. All your thoughts are committed to those bad things, and when you think it can't get any worse; it does!

As stated like attracts like. So whilst your thinking how terrible everything is, it may get even worse, cause you are attracting those things by thinking about it.

I had to learn this the hard way. I had a problem last year while I was at university in London. I thought I got away from it, but I kept on thinking about it, or something that is similar to what happened. And guess what? Like I said, like attracts like. That problem followed me back home and hit me hard! I was struggling, I was at a dark place. But then I spoke to Harj about it, she reassured me that it will get better. However, I didn't completely believe it, until a solution appeared right in front of me. It was a bit of a struggle but the good thoughts that made me believe that I deserve better and everything will work out helped.

Also, I'm pretty bored with studying law. I may be good at it, but I don't enjoy it thoroughly. But MAKEUP! OMG don't even get me started. I love anything related to makeup, I love doing makeup looks and everything. So again as like attracts like, HDCandy are now doing makeup on photoshoots. We have recently been contacted by another photographer who would like for us to work with him, and fingers crossed we'll get that job!

So when you have a problem, talk about it with a friend get your emotions out and then let go. It's not easy, we both know that! But trying is the first step you gotta take. Once you let go, and hope for good things, a door will open that will get you further.

"Your thoughts determine your frequency, and your feelings tell you immediately what frequency you are on. When you feel bad, you are on the frequency of drawing more bad things. When you feel good, you are powerfully attracting more good things to you."

"The feeling of love is the highest frequency you can emit. The greater the love you feel and emit, the greater the power you are harnessing."

The simple steps of this is to 1) ASK     2) BELIEVE      3) RECEIVE

Start with simple things in life if you want. But make sure you believe in it and it will happen.

If you are skeptical and don't believe me, then read up the story of the author for Chicken Soup for the Soul - Jack Canfield. Or the story of Morris Goodman also known as the Miracle Man. And there are so many other stories of how the secret has helped. Whether its health, money or lifestyle. It will work as long as you believe it with all your heart.

If you wanna be a lawyer, doctor, astronaut, makeup artist, photographer etc. As long as you have that persistent thought to become whatever you wanna be, then it will happen.

I'd rather be a makeup artist than a lawyer and well all these opportunities are arising!

Trust me, this works. So far it has worked really well for us, and it keeps on working.

If you would like for us to elaborate on this then let us know and we will do that.

But for now, you can google and youtube THE SECRET by Rhonda Byrne, and find out how you can help yourself. Cause your destiny lies in your hands, God and the Universe will get you there as long as you know what you want. If you don't believe in God, well you can't deny the universe and its force and quantum physics!

Anyways guys, I'll leave you at that. Hope this helps a little! :)

Love, Peace and Awesomeness

A little dose of life...

Hey Everyone!


So we're taking a detour from make-up, fashion, hair and all those things that make us look fabulous. 


We figured that just because we're HDCandy didn't mean that we couldn't blog about life. I mean, we are humans too right? Ordinary humans living ordinary lives. 


We face many dilemmas in life, whether those are educational stresses or financial difficulties. There comes a time in our lives when we wish that we could be someone else. It's natural! The grass is always greener on the other side! We prefer to be someone who we perceive to be better off than us, without actually knowing everything about them. For all we know, they may want to be us for a completely different reason!


Times of hardship are dealt with differently. Some prefer to bottle it all up to the point where they can't sleep, eat, drink or think straight. Others on the other hand prefer to get high/drunk to the point where they forget all about their problems. Which way is the right way? Well...neither!  


All problems have a solution. Solutions may not hit us in the face like problems do, but with careful thought, every problem can be resolved. The best thing to do is talk to someone. If you don't feel comfortable speaking to a family member, then speak to a close friend. If you don't want to speak to a friend then that's ok too.....counsellors and agony aunts exist for a reason! Sometimes it may be easier to speak to a stranger than someone you know, mainly due to the fear of being judged. Well if speaking to a stranger is less stressful for you - do it!


The aim is to get rid of all the negatively and embrace a positive attitude and point of view. Only then will it be possible to come up with a solution.

"You can never solve a problem on the level on which it was created"


                                                                                     Albert Einstein


So stay positive, chin up and fight those evil demons! 


And remember, HDCandy is always here to listen to your problems, if there just isn't anyone out there who listens to you. 


Love, Peace and Awesomeness

Turning 21...

Hey everyone!!! Hope you're all good. Sorry we've been lacking with our blogging. We have been super crazy with our heads stuck in revision textbooks. But but butttt.....we are back!

Just a general blog about life (omg don't we sound old) Well we both are officially 21 now, and what better way to enter the 21st year of our lives than with some super awesome CHANEL bags :D A must have for EVERY girl...sorry I mean woman...ahhh you know what we mean.

So even though we don't feel any different, or older for that matter, life has definately changed a LOT! Whether we like it or not, maturity has kicked in! We may feel as though we are still 16, but when you turn 21 people start to expect more. You yourself start to expect more. It's natural. So here's the question: We wonder how people feel in terms of their age. Does everyone naturally feel their age? Or are they stuck in a certain age?

Us two definately feel the change in how we were and how we are now. We have however, both decided that this is the perfect age to stay stuck in. So.....our tips to staying 21 (even when your birth certificate states otherwise) are:

1) ALWAYS stay on top of fashion trends. You are NEVER too old to pull off fashion looks. NEVER you hear us!

2) Look after your skin. 21 is not only the age when most people are at their prime. But for some it means that the signs of ageing develop. You may find the odd wrinkle or white hair but embrace it. Wrinkles and white hairs are a natural process, don't fight it to the extent where you end up looking like a 80 year old plastic Barbie! Invest in some hair dye and anti wrinkle cream! No one needs to know your real age and looking good doesn't have to cost you an arm or a leg!

3) Look after your body. Not only to look hot, but to be healthy. Eat the right foods, but also indulge in the wrong ones. After a week of rabbit food what's stopping anyone from bathing in a chocolate fountain?!

4) Enjoy every moment of life! As cheesy as that sounds, every cloud has a silver lining. Yea life seems a little pointless at times but when one door closes, many more open. Whether you graduate, get a promotion, lose your job or fall down in front of a huge crowd (just remember to do all whilst looking amazing!) enjoy it. These are the moments you're going to look back on in later life and think "that was one hell of an awesome time" or "damn I screwed up but I overcame it and things got better"

5) NEVER feel sorry for yourself. Self pity only takes you to a place where the world is against you. Instead, climb back up and fight it. Otherwise it will only attract more negativity to your life. Fight for what you believe in, regardless of how mad people think you or your ideas are.

6) Don't be afraid to dream. Dreams give us ambitions and the determination/encouragement to fulfill our desires. Without dreams, would anyone actually do what they want? Would we be following the careers that we follow? Dreams are important...so keep dreaming!

7) Laugh and Love like there was no tomorrow! Life is too short to hold grudges. Cherish the friends you have and enjoy spending time and doing crazy things with them. Just like we do. We have recently learnt (the hard way) that we don't need to have a million friends to be happy. Having a handful of AMAZING friends are better than having a million losers! Appreciate your friends, family and relatives. I know families can be a little difficult (amongst other things) but they are the ones that we tend to turn to in bad times. So why not include them in your good ones?

BONUS TIP: ALWAYS take pictures. Not only do they capture memories, it'll also give you the opportunity to tell your grandchildren "oh that fashion was out when I was a teen...here look at this!"

Hope these tips will encourage/help you in whatever way. If you think we have missed out any points, do let us know. Similarly, if you could answer the question about how old you actually feel in comparison to your actual age, that would be awesome.

We'll be back soon with some more blogging. Until then, stay sexy, laugh lots and party hard!

Love, Peace and Awesomeness

Family Affairs

Hey everyone it’s Harj. Hope you’re all doing well. We realise HDCandy have not updated the blog recently, but as many of you know we have now started making youtube videos. If you don’t, please do check it out. Our youtube name is HDCandyx. So yea, we have been super busy making videos, editing and uploading (which takes for ever!) But have no fear…HDCandy is now here!!!

As requested by Cheyenne Summer Cook (a follower on facebook), this blog is about families.

In the ideal world families are perfect – hence the word ideal. There are no arguments, disputes, tears or hurt feelings. But lets face it guys, that just happens in films. Don’t get me wrong…with commitment, determination and sacrifice, everything can last for ever. But for those circumstances where it doesn’t….this is for you!

I myself happened to have gone through a rough time when it came to family matters. When I was 14, my parents split up due to some heavy domestic violence. I chose to live with my mom and as a result ended up losing contact with my dad. As much as I wanted to maintain my relationship with him, it was his way or no way.

We ended up living in a refuge hostel for 3 months. A small room where the three of us would live (my mom, my brother who was 1 and a half at that time and me). It was tough since my mom couldn’t work due to injuries and because there was no one to look after my brother. Finances were downhill for a while and things were not looking good I must admit.

During that time, there was a lot of stuff that was going through my mind. Why was I going through this? Why did this happen to my family? What’s going to happen now?  A lot of unanswered questions drove me crazy. Doubts about whether we would ever smile again haunted me every day. I missed a lot of school due to depression and it was near exam time….timing was awful!!

Nevertheless, support is the key. There were days where my mom would cry into her pillow as she watched us cram up in a little room. I knew I had to be strong ….if not for myself then for my mom. As hard as it is to stay positive in some situations, I thought about the bright side. My mom was alive, even though we were in a hostel, we had a roof over our head and most important of all, we were together. We spent nights just talking and supporting each other. She was my rock and I was hers.

Friends also encouraged me and supported me. I went out with my friends every now and again and this would take my mind off things.

The hostel offered a counselling service which I decided to try out. As silly as it sounds, but sometimes it is so much easier to talk to someone who is not involved in your life. Impartial advice helps a great deal…so if you ever need to talk but feel like you don’t want to talk to a family member or a friend, try a counsellor.

I knew in the back of my mind that I could not let this affect my future. Not only was I going to fulfil my dreams of becoming a doctor for myself, but now I was also doing it for my mom….for a better future for all of us. I got my act together and started going back to school regularly. As hard as it was to revise and study in a small room which was full of stuff, I made do with what I had. Like the saying goes…when life hands you lemons, make lemonade!….

Well that was me back in 2004. Let me update you on where I am now: We now live in a 3 bedroom house…which my mom owns! My mom went back to college and did an interior design/painting and decorating course – she is now a self employed business woman. My dad and I finally got back in touch. Although he has remarried and has another child, our relationship works. Even though it took 5 years for it to happen, I’m glad it did. As far as education is concerned, I passed my GCSE’s with flying colours, moved on to one of the best colleges in the city, did my A levels (which I also passed with flying colours) and moved up in the world! Right now, I am on vacation having completed my first year of Medicine at University.

There is always light at the end of the tunnel you guys…always! As bad as things may seem at the time, never give up and never lose hope. Be there for one another and support each other during these tough times. One day, you will look back and think about how much better your life has become. No matter how long it takes for you to reach your happily ever after…keep your head held high!

Hope this has helped/inspired/encouraged you guys. Or made you think about life in general. No matter what situation you are in, there is always someone who is going to be in a worse situation, so be happy with what you have.

Stay beautiful you guys, love you lots. Take care and be safe

Love, Peace and Awesomeness

Go and flatter yourself....!!!

Hey everyone its Harj. As promised, this blog will help everyone determine what to wear, what’s hot this season, and how to make sure your body is shown off in the right way.

Finding clothes to fit into and look decent in is hard to do (regardless of what size you are). You could be the skinniest girl alive or one with curves in all the right places and still wear clothes that don’t necessarily flatter your body. The key is to know what body type you are. Once you have determined this, finding clothes to show you off in the right way will not be a problem.

Most people are aware of 2 different body types: Apple and Pear. But did you know that there are actually 12 different types???!!!

1. APPLE: As the name suggests, your body type is round if you are apple shaped. It usually involves a thick waist and bosom. It is not easy to dress and people assume that the key to being a sexy apple is covering up in layers….wrong! Show off your cleavage using low cut tops and avoid round necks. V neck tops are most flattering. When choosing a jacket, make sure it is fitted, so that it shows off the curve made by your assets! When wearing skirts, make sure that it is fastened at the side and are flat fronted (this will not add any extra bulk to the belly thus make you look slimmer). Apple shaped girls have been known to have beautifully sculpted calves and ankles…a small heel (wedge if you prefer) will show this off. As much as we love jeans ladies…traditional jeans will not flatter you. If you must, tailored wide legged jeans are best. Or even better – denim trousers!
2. PEAR: Alln my lovely pear shaped ladies, you will know that the centre of your problems lie with thick thighs, saddlebags and ankles which you think look awful! You don’t have to be big to be a pear shape. Pear shaped thin girls can also be found. All it means is that your behind is bigger than any part of your body. Nevertheless ladies – you have it going on upstairs! Your bosom may not directly be big but that slim waist is gonna draw attention to it no matter what. Show off your arms girl, coz they are beautiful! Avoid side pockets on your clothes. When it comes to jackets/cardigans, adding a belt will help draw attention to your slim waist and make you look sizzling! I know you may hate your calves and ankles…so if you feel like that, boots are the best to wear. Not only will they cover up your enemies, but they are also in style.
3. HOUR GLASS: You are definitely made for the guys, but does that mean that you are made for clothes? Hell yea! However, with big bosoms and a short waist you may often feel that you look pregnant. The key to looking sexy is to wear fitted clothes that stretch your torso. Avoid clothes too big for you and show off those lovely curves. Pencil skirts and v neck tops are the must!!! Avoid stilettos – stick to round or peep toe shoes.
4. BRICK: From behind, you have a masculine shape – a flat behind, no waist, straight up and down legs and broad shoulders. A lot of women would assume that this means wearing masculine clothes is the answer – wrong again!  You can be a brick and still look awesome and feminine. Did you know that Kim Cattrall is a brick shape?? Who would have guessed hey! The key to finding the right clothes is to look for clothes that will give you curves. Asymmetric pleats on a skirt are great because they will lift up your behind and give you that peachy bottom. When deciding on shoe shapes, round toed are best. Choose tops with detail on the neckline – this will show off the roundness of your neck and make you look more feminine.
5. SKITTLE: often confused with pear, for having the thin long upper body. Whilst pears have the saddle bag and the big behind, skittles start to widen at their thighs. Vertical patters on your bottoms/skirt are a great way to make your thighs look slimmer. If you are short, you want a big heel – chunky is best!
6. VASE: Take the hourglass shape and stretch it – voila! Wide scooped necklines are the thing to go for. It will balance out your chest with the remainder of your body. Your narrowest area e.g. waist can be highlighted by a single button jacket/cardigan or a belt.
7. CORNET: Cornet shaped girls are triangular and athletic built. A draping dress is ideal to create the curves you need in the right places. Skinny jeans will show off your assets in the right way so make them your best friend!
8. COLUMN: This is for all your tall girls! It is hard for you girls to find clothes that are the right length for you. However, once you know what shops to hit…say bye bye short clothes! Plenty of pleating is the key. The more material on a dress, the better. Chiffon dresses will make even the tallest girls look feminine. When choosing heels, go for shorter heels, that balance you out well.
9. LOLLIPOP: This is for you tall girls with big bosoms. You have narrow shoulders but endless legs! Most actresses are lollipops – did you know that? Plenty of material in a dress is going to make you look curvier and draw the attention to your slim waist. Bell bottom trousers balance out your bosom and make you look less top heavy. Pick slim heeled shoes to show off your slim legs.
10. BELL: This mainly affects short women. Your lower half is a lot larger than your upper half. The trick is to make your upper body look broader. Create broad shoulders using shoulder pads. When choosing coats and jackets, go for funnel shaped ones. A lot of women have trouble when it comes to summer. People believe that they don’t have the beach body. Not a problem my lovelies….a nice thigh slimming caftan will not only cover your body to a degree that makes you feel comfortable, but it will also make you look sexy in the sun!
11. CELLO: If you are a Cello, you are a whole load of woman! With big bosoms, broad shoulders and a backside with matching hips….you are the proof for “big is beautiful” Once again, you feel as though covering up is the thing to do but listen up my foxy ladies…there are clothes that will make you look bootilicious!!! Go for wide V neck tops that will show off your cleavage. If you have it – flaunt it girl!  Maxi dresses will make you look taller and slimmer. Boots and round toe/peep toe heels are the best for you.

GOBLET: Heavy and square on top but lean and slender at the bottom. Deep wide V necks will half the area of your chest. A skirt which is fitted at the top will stabilise your bottom half and balance you out. Rock your court shoes sister!!!

Hey lovelies, it's Dee. As Harjit already stated, there are plenty of body types and it's up to you now to find the right one for you.

My little job was to find the right clothes that can make you feel comfortable and sexy. Whether it's to go out at night, or just walk down the road to go to a shop. It's all about having the right balance in whatever outfit you choose to wear for the occasion.

This top for example can be paired with some fitted trouser, denims, or skinny jeans. That way you don't look like you have some sort of potato sack on.

If you would like to show of your bosom, pair with a pretty waistbelt. That way it shows more curves as well, such as a slimmer waist, bigger bosom and hips. Cause hips dont lie ;) 

OH MY GOD! A Maxi Dress is a MUST in every girls wardrobe. They suit any body shape!

It can be worn during the day while you go shopping, or in the evening while you're out for a nice dinner.  

If it's cold make sure that you wear fitted jackets. Or one that has a belt around the waist, and tighten it. That shows off your figure, because it will make sure that you get an instant hour glass figure. Nicely fitted blazers are another MUST HAVE for any girl.

HIGH HEELS! I cannot mention it enough. High heels are so sexy and look so fabulous. They work your butt in your favour, and any girl can wear them. If you wear it with a maxi dress, it makes you look slimmer and taller. I'm quite short, but I surely love my heels.

If you are not confident walking in it, buy yourself a pair and walk around the house with it. Get used to it and then you can start strutting your stuff out in public. Nothing is sexier than a confident girl/woman walking down the road.

Little tip is to buy platform heels, they are way more comforable than other ones. Also, sometimes girls find it easier to walk in wedges. So either way, try and find heels that you are comfortable wearing.

V-Necks are important as Harjit already stated. They show of your cleavage and make you look slimmer as well. Not like you need to look slimmer, but do flaunt your bosom. It also stretches your torso, which makes you look taller as well.








Cardigans are a nice way to stay warm and paired with a skinny waistbelt, it gives you a slimmer silhouette. Also if its longer, it tends to make you look taller. Especially with nice skinny jeans and high heels.

Well there you go lovely ladies, hope these tips help. Now hit the shops or raid your wardrobes and find the clothes that make you feel confident and sexy. It's time to strutt your stuff and look fabulous doing it!

Much Love, Peace and Awesomeness
