My MET Favorites

 Anne Hathaway in this stunning Valentino Gown.

 Blake Lively not only was wearing this gorgeous dress from GUCCI, she was also wearing 50 carat champagne diamond earrings!

 Cameron Diaz is wearing this sleek & sexy body fitted royal blue gown from Stella McCartney. It was probably one of the more simpler ensembles, yet still looked incredible and elegant enough for this event.

 Miranda Kerr walked down the red carpet wearing one of my favorite designers, Michael Kors.

 Taylor Swift is not my favorite musician, but I thought this J. Mendel dress looked amazing on her & it was something I wouldn't see her normally wearing. The fact that she stepped out of the box of what she normally would wear made me like her look.

We don't see Mary Kate Olsen in the spotlight too much anymore, but when we do at these red carpet events, she never disappoints me. I love her Vintage Chanel look she had on the red carpet at the gala and I thought it fit her style perfectly.

Thirsty Thursday

Hey Hey It's Thursday!

Tonight I know a lot of people like to go out, Thursday is the night to go downtown with the girls or a bunch of friends and have fun. What do you think is appropriate attire when you go out with the girls? I go out to bars and restaurants all the time and think... did you look in the mirror before you left.. or those clothes shrunk in the wash you need to buy new clothes. Clothes that are made for teens/young adult ladies are becoming shorter and shorter or are becoming more see through. BUT WAIT don't get me wrong, I do like some of the clothing styles, trends, and looks of a lot of designers and pieces out for this upcoming summer. I just feel like women and I'll even through men into the mix, need to pay more attention to what is appropriate to wear for what they are doing. Whether you are going out to dinner, to a party, to a bar, etc. There are different types of attire that should be worn or that should be acceptable I guess. I know many bars and "clubs" have dress codes, but I feel as if 50% of the people let into these places with so called "dress codes" don't even follow it or are up to par with it anyways.. So what's the point of a dress code? What is an outfit pet peeve of yours? Where is your favorite place to go out on a Thursday night? (if you do go out) What is your favorite outfit/piece of clothing from your closet that you love wearing when going out? Here are two outfits I put together that I think can be appropriate for the summer time to go out in.

Comment on this post, post pictures of outfits, etc. I like hearing feedback, reading peoples comments, looking at outfits and even getting new ideas for outfits that maybe I wouldn't think of.

P.S. Since it is Thirsty Thursday, for  those of you who are of age (21) to drink.. here are some of my favorite drinks when I go out. If you haven't tried any of these.. I think they are a must to try!
1)Long Beach
2)White Gummi Bear
3) Bahama Mama
4) Sex on the Beach
5) Strawberry Daiquiri 

 

Happy Thirsty Thursday Everyone, enjoy the sun today while its out & enjoy the clear night "summer" sky later!

Mascara Monday

It's Monday again already... weekends definitely go by way to fast.  There seems to never be enough time in the day.. but ANYWAYS. This Makeup Monday, I decided to focus on mascara and found some tips I would like to share with all of you. 

1) Thin & short brushes surprisingly are the best to work with. A thinner brush allows you to get into the corner of eyes. Short brushes give you more control.

2) To avoid smearing your mascara or smudging any under your eye, apply powder under your eyes before applying mascara. Mascara is more likely to smudge when you have oily concealer on. 

3) I always have a problem with my mascara clumping on my lashes! To avoid this, zig-zag the wand back and fourth to result in less clumps.

4) DO NOT pump your wand in and out of your mascara. This will bring air into the tube which will bring more bacteria into your mascara and dry it out way faster.

5) Last tip I have for you today, to help separate your lashes before even applying mascara, try using mascara primer. It helps separates your lashes and makes it easier when you want to start applying your mascara. Adding primer does take more time, but if it's for a special occasion or a date;) it might be worth it to take the time so your lashes look extra fabulous.

Makeup Monday

What makeup styles are going on this week? Anything new in the beauty world you have seen and want to try? I am still learning about makeup and how to apply it personally to my skin and features. Like I have said in the past, I love tutorials and I like pictures of styles so I can try and copy it. A lot of makeup styles to me always look pretty in the pictures, then when I attempt them, it just is a disaster.. haha. ANYWAYS... Here are some random makeup tips I thought would be helpful for some of the "amateur" makeup artists like myself who need some help & for others that I am sure feel the same way I do sometimes! Hope some of these tips are helpful to you guys!


-Ladies who like having some color and shine, here is a tip for the bronze beauties.

For clarity and color, use cream bronzer to highlight your eyes, lips, and cheeks.

-If you want to widen the appearance of your eyes and make them POP, ALWAYS ALWAYS curl them. Besides using mascara, curling them before applying mascara will help them look longer and fuller.

-To the girls who like wearing eyeliner and/or having the smokey eye look, apply the liner with your finger first, then use the point to line the inner rim of the lid. 

-Have stellar cheek bones but yet don't know how to show them off? Use white eye shadow as a highlighter. 

-Whenever I want to apply eyeshadow, I always use too much or I don't apply it correctly. To make this easier for you,  tap or smear it on your hand first and this will help with blending and the look of the color. 

-Want your lips to look luscious with color but still look somewhat natural? After applying lipstick/lipstains, press color in with your fingers to make the overall effect more natural.

Hope these easy tips help, I know some of them might be common knowledge for some, but hey these tips helped me so I hope they helped some of you!

Jellys are Back to Play

Remember Jellys? I sure do! Especially back in the 90's growing up. I was a 90's wild child,  and we always had the most outrageous and unique trends going on during that time. Jelly shoes are one thing I  definitely remember, but I thought when they were gone.... they would STAY GONE. BUT hey guess I was wrong! Jellys are back to play this Spring! I must say, they have put more of a "stylish" twist to these "new" shoes. Are you going to participate in a fashion blast from the past? Or are you going to just sit back and lay low during this repeating trend? I for one have been on the fence about it, but hey fashion repeats itself a lot doesn't it... there must be a reason... I guess it's up to YOU personally if that reason is a good one or bad.. HAHA.

Photography Friday

Happy Friday Everyone!

It's been a long and busy week for me, I apologize for the lack of posts. This upcoming week you will be getting plenty of posts, I will make sure of it! Today is a lazy Friday for me, I have the day off but unfortunately I have been sick with a cold the past couple days.. Spending the rest of the weekend in my bed is not exactly how I would like it to be. BUT ANYWAYS.. To occupy my day, I just have been internet surfing and looking up photography. I love fashion photography, especially black and white. I would love to learn how to take striking photos eventually with my camera I currently have. Hopefully with this nice weather coming up and the seasons changing, I will be able to take more photos and get more photo shoots up on my site.

Here is some fashion photography I am a fan of and I really enjoyed. I have a board on pinterest that is named "photography." Check it out, follow me on pinterest and look at what else I have to offer on that page. Hope everyone enjoys there Friday and has a fun filled and relaxing weekend!
