Hey Girls,

If you love to experiment with clothes and makeup, here's your chance to show everyone your style! Every Friday starting next week, a photo will be posted of a reader trying a fun trend. So next time you wear something trendy -- like an animal print top or glittery nail polish -- take a pic and send it to twistmail@twistmagazine.com with STYLE DARE in the subject box. Be sure to include your name, age and state. Feel free to add anything you want to say about your style, like what it says about you or which celebs serve as your inspiration. Bonus points if you're trying out a trend featured in a recent issue of TWIST, like lace or flat boots!

The four winners for February will win a cool pink makeup case from Caboodles. It's big enough to hold all your favorite makeup products that you use to try out new trends. You can stay organized by placing different products in each section -- so cool!

*Be sure to check out our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use before submitting a photo.

Are you excited about the chance to be featured on twistmagazine.com?

Peace, Love and Style,

Emily

Hey TWIST girls!

Shakira is back on the charts with hits from her latest album She Wolf (in stores now!). PopEater.com sat down with the performer to talk about her album and her huge success during the last few years.

Shakira spilled that she's planning a tour, and is mostly looking forward to seeing how fans react during her shows! "Of course you want people to enjoy your work. And nothing would make me more happier as an artist than knowing that people are having fun with this album and the music I've created," she spills. "If they can forget about their troubles for ten seconds while they are listening to one of my songs, I would be absolutely fulfilled and satisfied as an artist," Shakira added.

Tell TWIST, did you pick up Shakira's album last week? What's your fave Shakira song? Let's talk in the comments!
