Today's Look- Summer Vibes

Hey Dolls! Today's look is all about keeping cool in this warm summer heat! I found this great little outfit from...wait for it.. EXPRESS! I went crazy at their clearance sale and these lacy cream-colored shorts and white tank were a few of my many fab finds! I'm in love with these shorts because they aren't your typical white or beige shorts, the lace trim really does give them extra "cuteness." I also added some of the great accessories I picked up from Charming Charlies last week. Threw on a pair of gladiator sandals (also from Express) that zip up in the back for a quick get-away. Lastly, don't forget your sunnys! Summer is almost over :( So head to the beach, lay by the pool, and soak up those summer vibes before they're gone!

Today's Look- Viva La Poncho!

This winter I became obsessed with wearing this baby. My boyfriend told me it was like I was wearing a "snuggie," which is exactly how it feels! Except it's more like wearing a chic/stylish blanket around:) Rock it lounging around the house, or dress it up with great boots and skinny pants for a night out. I love this poncho even more because I got it from Marshall's for only $25!!

Today's Look- Getting High with the 90's.

Hi babes! I'm back! Sorry I have been MIA lately..But I'm back to spread the fashion-joy!
Today's look is all about HIGHS. High waist, high heels and knee highs. 

Love this top. It's a random tee that says, "Dream on Dreamer" Rather then tuck the top in, I just tied a small knot on the bottom. (excuse the raindrops on my shirt) 

These baby doll pumps never go out of style.

There's something about this look that makes me feel like I'm channeling Cher Horowitz from Clueless.  Pair a high-waisted skirt with knee highs and high heels and you're rocking the best of the 90's. I chose to wear a faux leather skirt rather then the typical plaid, but that's just more my steez. Don't forget the high bun and most importantly, your HIGH STANDARDS!

How to Get the Perfect Winged Liner

Oh my goodness, I have been SLACKING in the blogging department. Sorry! Anyway, I have recently been asked by a few people to post a blog about how to achieve the perfect winged liner. I came across this great diagram (better than anything I could ever make) and it's a perfect demonstration of the easiest way to get this look. 

                 
     http://rockettqueen.tumblr.com/post/54267437587/winged-eyeliner-pictorial-steps

When doing your liner it's always important to start from the outside and work your way in toward the eye. (towards your nose) 
1. First make a very small line angled toward the end of your eyebrow.
2. Next connect that line to the outer corner of your eye.
3. After that you can connect that line to the inner corner of your eye and setting desired "thickness"

** the bigger the eyes you have the thicker the line you can can have. However, if you have smaller eyes, then you may wanna make your liner much thinner so it doesn't over power the shape of you eye. I have very small eyes, so sometimes I like to draw my liner in, only to about the  middle of my eye and not drag it all the way in towards the corner of my eye. I think it make my eyes open up more.

Here's an example of how I do my liner.

You can achieve this look using any type of liquid or gel liner that you prefer. I personally use Mac's liquid liner in"boot black" which is a felt-tip liner that lasts FOR-EV-ER! (seriously, like almost a year) 

Some may find it easier to use gel liner and for this I would recommend Maybelline's "Eye Studio." With gel liner the key is to make sure you have a very small angled brush. 

I believe this liner comes with a brush but if you don't like it then here are some other examples of what you should look for. 

                                     

Most importantly.. PRACTICE, PRACTICE , PRACTICE! No one ever gets it right the first time. I, myself struggle to get it perfect but the more and more you play with it, the more it will become effortless. 

Cheers, dolls!

Look of the Day- Pop of BLUE!

Today's Look is inspired by 9-5'er working woman. Just because you have to work in a cubical doesn't mean you can't look sexy (to a certain extent of course). And oh, you know how I love a "random tee." Especially when paired with a great pencil-skirt and heels. (however, you may not be able to pull off this faux leather skirt at the office. Don't wanna invite too many unwanted stares.) Also, if you invest in some great accessories you can really create an opportunity to jazz up your work attire. You don't have to spend too much either. (necklace from Forever21) A great statement piece like this can make your outfit go from okay to "hot damn, girl!"

 On this day I was really feeling BLUE. The color. Not the emotion. This royal blue is really in right now and goes great with just about anything. Plus, it's super eye-catching! Make getting ready for work fun, and when you look good, you feel good, which can make those stressful work days go by even faster.

Look of the Day-Big Hoops, Red Lips, High Heels.

Currently obsessed with these pants! They are very similar to Harem pants (parachute pants) except these aren't as baggy. These are also high-waisted and form-fitted at the ankles. Bottom line-- they are super comfy and can be dressed up with a great pair of heels! It's like a night-on-the town in your jammies. (Please don't ever go out in your actual jammies) The top is a tight crop top that I just tucked in, to give it a more sleek look. You can also wear a baggy tee (tucked in) but I like the more fitted look up top (to keep your waistline visible) with the baggy bottom.
