So..liquid liner is increasingly popular lately (and is one of my personal favorites as well). The "winged out" look is seen almost everywhere and is a great way to have your everyday eyeliner look very sleek and chic. There are a few ways you can do your liner, whether you like it more or less dramatic or intense. However, it is not always easy to master the precision of liquid eyeliner, especially the winged out look. Here are a few tips for those of you who want to venture into the world of liquid eyeliner.
Hey everyone! So lately I have really enjoyed making youtube videos and have decided to do something kind of fun...a new series called the tuesday two! It will basically be a two minute video talking about anything from makeup to fashion to hair to crafts.
This week I wanted to talk about moving in to a new place and designing it to make it your own. It's that time of year where everyone is going back to college and that means new dorms and four blank walls (or two walls if you share the room? haha). But either way, being a home away from home..you want to create a space that is homey, cozy, and comfortable for you. Check out my new video for some ideas on how to get started :)
August is here...hard to believe the year has already reached its halfway point! Though it may be disheartening to see summer begin its fade into fall, it is time for a new chapter, a crisp breath of cool air, and some fresh fall fashion. As much as I love summer and its breezy ocean days, beachy hair, and hot sun, I get excited thinking about the next season. I may be a tad more excited because I don't have to go to school this fall, but still..it's exciting nonetheless.
To me, autumn is more of a romantic time of year.. perhaps its the scents and sights of crackling fires, warm ovens, and colorful hues of changing leaves. But I also think the fashion is a bit more romantic in a sense as well. Spring/summer fashion is usually a time to be bold, bright, and blooming where fall/winter is rich and deep in color, classic in design, yet fresh and edgy its own way. I also think fall/winter fashion is a bit more intriguing because of the layering aspect of the colder months. It's a time to welcome the changing of seasons by starting something out of the ordinary, treading new trends, and being romanced by the atmosphere around you.
Here are some of my favorite looks and most notable trends going into f/w 2013:
It's that time of year...whether it is family visits, out of town weddings, or just plain vacation, its the traveling season. I will be the first person to jump at the opportunity to travel anywhere, anytime, any reason. There is something enchanting and alluring about being in a new place, and also an anticipated yet calming feeling of escaping the normalcies of daily life. However, there is one thing that I dread every time I go anywhere...the terrible and unescapable challenge of packing.
If you're like me, packing is definitely not what I look forward to doing. In fact, I dislike it so much that I have been known to put it off to the last minute, even up to like 2am the day I am leaving. As you could guess, that doesn't normally turn out too well. I usually end up wherever I am going with one item too short, outfits that don't come together well, or having just plain forgotten things.
So, too avoid these types of "packing faux pas", I decided to get a jump start on my packing this year. I am leaving on Tuesday for over three weeks and am trying to pack in mostly carry-on bags. I decided to further propel myself into the packing mood by making a video. These are some of the tips I have found to be most useful when deciding what to bring on my next journey :)
let me know what tips you have for packing/trips. xoxo!
It's that time of year...dun dun dun dun..dun DUN dun dunnnnn.....WEDDING SEASON (that was supposed to be the bridal march by the way haha)! Many times in late spring/early summer, it seems like there are weddings almost every weekend (or if you're my parents, you DO have a wedding to attend every week). Being the dress-concerned person I am, I have had my fair share of stressing over what to wear to a wedding.
To decide what to wear for a wedding, I think it's best to put the wedding in context. Does the invitation specify dress code? Is the wedding outside? What time of day is the ceremony/reception? What is the location?
Taking all things into consideration, here are a few ideas to give some inspiration for those "what do I wear" moments:

So I was doing my nails and thought, hey! it would be really fun to make a video. I mean, I have a great camera, a mac with iMovie, and a couple hours so why not. I love doing my nails, especially in the spring/summer time. It is so fun to try out new designs and colors and go a little crazy sometimes. I decided to do a mint green floral nail in this video. It was the first time I had ever done it, so hopefully you like it :P. I find it really fun to record/edit videos so here goes nothing! I also added some photos of nails past just for fun!
