I jumped into this metallic concept last year, and finally I get to wear it this season! Here's how I made metallics casual with a metallic sweater and metallic shoes... I know, sounds like a lot, but I dressed it down quite a bit to be everyday-friendly. Are you rocking metallics this holiday season?

You can easily make a girly or casual look more edgy with skulls. Here's a quick makeup and outfit of the day I threw together for school that incorporates this skull trend. This is simple enough that ANY girl can rock this look!

With natural makeup, I just added the bright red lip to put some color into the look! Lipstick featured is from Wet 'n Wild, Stoplight Red 911D - These lipsticks are a steal for only $1.97 at my local Wal-Mart!

Casual Fall Trend: Flannels

Flannels never go out of style. I used to be obsessed with flannels when I was younger. This year, I wanted to use the flannel as an accessory to an outfit and make it my own! I wore this to school today, may I remind you, I leave my house by 6 am, so it's an outfit that's usually thrown together and comfy for my "long-day-wear." Hope you guys get inspiration for your flannels!

Flannel: Forever 21

Shorts: Abercrombie Kids

Boots: Reflection

Graphic Tank and Socks: Kohls

- I feel like this outfit included all staple pieces from every girl's closet!

Going Crazy for Halloween

I know this is a late look, but I still wanted to share with you guys! Since Halloween was on a school night for me, I stayed in and passed out candy! Even though I stayed in, I still felt the spirit of Halloween so I came up with a smokey look for the occasion. This look can be done with any colors! Hope you guys enjoy!

The reason I chose green and purple was because of the shirt I wore! Bought this skeleton shirt at Walmart (found in the boys sections for $4.88!)

Products used:

Base - Maybelline's Color Tattoo in Audacious Asphalt

ELF Palette - Green and purple MATTE colors. Used skin tone color to blend.

Covergirl Concealer Stick for highlight

ELF Gel Liner

Ebay Lashes

Settle yet BOLD smokey eye look

Please ignore my shininess! This picture was taken at the end of the night. Just thought I'd share this look since I loved it so much! Definitely a new go-to look for me!

I wanted to do a quick post on this eye look from the other night! I've really been into the smokey eye lately, but in different colors! All that was used for this look was Maybelline's Color Tattoo Rich Mahogany (from the Fall '12 collection) and a skin tone eyeshadow was used to smoke out the look. (I did add a smidge of black to my outter corner crease to give depth to my eyes.) For my highlight, I just used a light concealer ... which also perfected the brows! This look is great for a casual night out or date night with the girls! Feeling extra bold? I'd definitely wear this look during the day! I love bold makeup, but this is a toned down version for me! Hope you guys enjoy!

Here Comes the Fall ... Lip !

Hey beauties! I know I've been behind on blogging, but I haven't came across anything blog worthy ... until NOW! I was on a hunt for a new lip for fall and found this gorgeous color! ... Mac's Diva paired with Mac's Burgundy lip liner! I find out of all the lip products I use, I simply adore Mac's lipsticks the most! They are worth the $15 dollar splurge and after wearing this lip look for the night, I know it was definitely worth it! Hope you guys enjoy!

Went with a simple eye look and a BOLD lip for this fall evening!

I was so surprised how well the lipstick lasted through the night! After dinner and a movie with no extra applications, I came home and noticed it was still basically all there. (Besides the inside of course from enjoying my Red Robin burger and fries!)

Ombre Trend

Ombre is a huge trend right now! So I wanted to give it a try with a makeup look. What better to try than ombre lipstick?! Used a red lip liner and a hot pink lipstick, followed by two lighter pink lipsticks while layering towards the center. To finish the look, I dabbed shimmer white eyeshadow in the center of my lips! What do you think? Wearable? I love it! Great way to dress up your makeup look this summer!

Everyday/Going-Out Look!

Want to find a medium between going out and an everyday eye look? I love dramatic eye looks, its a fun way to dress up your makeup. Here's a smokey look for all over the lid! ... You can darken the crease to transition it to be more dramatic for going out. You're probably thinking OH NO... ANOTHER SMOKEY EYE LOOK! ... I can not get enough of smokey eyes because of my eye shape, it's easier to get away with these looks. Feel free to send requests for other looks!

Products used:
Color Tattoo by Maybelline - Audacious Asphalt
Black Matte Eyeshadow - ELF
Ivory Shimmer Eyeshadow - ELF
*ELF products are in the Day 2 Night quad.
Hue by MAC for lipstick - I love this nude-y pink color!
Eyelashes are from EBAY!

All over the lid is the Color Tattoo and I smoked out the black eyeshadow in my crease area to meet my highlight. The highlight is the ivory color.

HOPE YOU ENJOY! I'd love to see your smokey eye looks!

Stripes Trend! OUTFIT & MAKEUP

I absolutely adore the stripes trend! Recently got my hands on some striped high-waisted shorts too! Today for a day just to run errands, I threw on this striped shirt with puffy sleeves and red high-waisted shorts.

Top: Cotton On ($10)
Shorts: Forever21 ($13)

(more natural lighting)

I wanted to keep the look simple, but refreshing. I wore a complete face with Trace Gold sheer tone blush by MAC as a contour with Pink Passion and Candid Coral (both) by E.L.F. (mixed together for more natural look) for my blush. For my eye look, I used Too Cool (of course from the Maybelline Color Tattoo collection, I'M OBSESSED WITH!) all over my lid, with a medium brown in my crease to keep the look light, but add depth to my eyes. The Too Cool on my lid came be a more youthful with brighter eyes look. With no eyeliner, I just added the dramatic lashes by E.L.F. For my highlight, I used a nude shimmer color. Hope you guys enjoyed this look!
