Be An Egyptian Goddess


Happy Hump Day,

I hope that you guys are having a fabulous week so far! Having style isn’t only about what your wear, it's about how an entire look is put together! Instead of a fashion trend, today I will be sharing a makeup trend that is sure to be huge this fall and winter! The Egyptian Eye, this look is inspired by the ancient Egyptians. During fashion week I saw many models rocking the Egyptian look. Let me tell you, even though it’s really dramatic, it looks fabulous. What I love about this look is that it gives you the option to add color or wear it neutral.  I personally would probably go more neutral. I am not a wonderful makeup artist so I won’t be telling you how to do it. What I will be doing is showing you a couple images of the trend and how you can rock it. Many celebrities have already been wearing this look. I personally don’t know how long it will take for this trend to hit my little town in Minnesota, but I hope it won’t be too long. If you guys plan on wearing this look please send me some pictures I would love to see how you rock this look! Have a wonderful rest of the week.

XOXO

LOVE the way Kim is rocking this look!

FUR BABY FURRR!


Happy Monday My Lovely’s!

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend, I enjoyed mine. I worked Saturday morning, went fishing in the afternoon and hung out with friends in the evening. Sunday I went to church in the morning and had a family day after that. We went out to eat, did some shopping and in the early evening all the boys got together and played soccer.  Since its still Sunday, I’m just starting to blog now at ten p.m. and I am so tired.  So this might be a short and strait to the point post! Tomorrow I will be hosting a glamour party en mi casa (my house), so I will have to be up early cleaning and baking. To top it all off I got a new laptop today and I’m still trying to figure it out. Now I’m done rambling, let’s get into today’s trend.

Today’s Trend
Today’s fall trend is fur! No matter what kind of fur it is, faux fur or real fur, it will be in this fall. All over the runways fur was spotted and not in just your average ways. Fur will be taken to the next level this fall by adding bright colors to your traditional fur hues. I spotted colored fur (pink, blue, peach, and orange) all over the runways. Don't think that when I say fur I only mean coats and vest either. This fall you will see fur hats, purses, headbands, gloves and even shoes. I personally am not a huge fan of fur, but a fall trend that I am liking involving fur is fur collared clothing. I have been spotting  many cardigans, sweaters and vest with fur on the collar. I think this is a fabulous way to add fur into your style without having to look like you’re wearing an animal.
Styling
When it comes to styling fur it can become a very tricky thing to do.  I don’t know about you, but every time I try on a fur vest I feel like I instantly gained two sizes!  Something that I like to do when wearing a fur vest is tying a belt around the waist, that way I show off the smallest part of my body. My recommended way to wear a fur vest is to wear a pair of dark skinnies, long sleeve shirt (tight, preferably cotton), add your vest, put a skinny belt around the waist, a pair of fun earrings, some bracelets and/or a watch, and boots or flats for shoes. I also would recommend wearing your hair up when you’re wearing a vest. It gives it a much classier look. For girls who aren’t a huge fan of fur I would recommend wearing fur collared clothing. Below Carla is wearing a BB Dakota Leather vest with a white fur collar (here).  I love this particular vest because it incorporates two trends in one (leather and fur).  I think it’s a great way to step out of the box without having to be super daring. If fur isn’t for you I understand, but with these simple ways you might just be able to add fur into your wardrobe and fall in love with it.

I hope this helps. Also if you guys already wear fur vest comment below your favorite ways to wear it. That way I will also have new ideas! I hope you all have a fabulous week!

XOXO

Add some color/ print with your fur!

I love this Vest!

I love the idea of fur with dresses! I just don't  think i'm bold enough to pull it off!

Black and Yellow!!

Hey their beauties,

I think it’s safe to say that most of us in the United States have heard the song black and yellow.  If you know it, you might catch yourself singing it more than once this fall. Why you ask, because black and gold are going to be a huge trend!  I spotted black and gold all over the runways in New York, Milan, London & Paris. I predict that it will be one of fall/winters most wearable trends! What I love about this trend is that it is so easy to put together. What’s even better is most of us already have black and gold clothing or accessories in our wardrobe.  That means that we won’t have to spend a ton of money in order to rock this trend.

How to Rock It!
This trend might be one of the easiest to wear this fall, because of the fact that there are so many ways to pair gold and black together. Almost everyone has some black in there closet (I might own too much). Since gold is such a popular color for jewelry you most likely won’t have to go out and buy a ton of it. If you don’t own anything in a gold hue, ask an older relative if they have any gold toned jewelry that they can let you borrow. Gold was huge in the 80’s and 90’s so they are bound to have something you can use. Some simple ways to wear gold & black is pairing black tops with gold jewelry. This doesn’t mean that only can only wear to black and gold to rock this trend. You can wear any color you want and just wear gold and black accessories. Right now I love the gold watch and black bracelets look, So Fab!  For my fashionista’s why limit yourself to just black shirts and gold jewelry! Why not rock a black and gold Purse or black and gold set of heels instead. Since Metallics are in go for gold top/dress and pair it with Black accessories. For an edgier look I have been seeing black leather jackets, with gold embellishments that are to too die for. I definitely want to pick one up soon. These are just a couple simple ways to wear black and gold, there are many more possible options. Just remember no matter what your wearing make it resemble your style and feel confident in it.

XOXO

Tribal Temptations!


Hey There My Lovely beauties!

Today is the first day of the Fall Trend Series! In this series I’m going to take some of this upcoming fall trends and show you guys how to wear /style them. I am going to be using my best friend Carla as a model for some of the trends this series, so thanks Carla for volunteering to help me. Also Thank you Christa Landmark Boutique for having amazing clothing! A lot of this stuff is all from her store (here).

Please remember that all these trends are just that “trends”and they are not guaranteed to last a certain amount of time. When it comes to buying trends that are so “of the moment” my advice is to buy inexpensively. Just because something is in this fall doesn’t mean that it will be in next fall! So always try to find trends for low prices! Stores I would recommend for inexpensive trend shopping are Forever 21 and H&M.

Today’s Trend
Today’s Fall Trend is Aztec.  Aztec is anything that has tribal print on it.I have been spotting this trend on celebs such as Kim Kardashin, Lucy Hale, Rihanna and Whitney Port.  It has also been spotted on runways such as Whitney Eve, L.A.M.B,  Diane Von Furstenberg, Missoni. Go to your local mall and you’re most likely to find Aztec inspired clothing in many forms such as shoes, shirts,dresses, accessories, tights, pants cardigans and more.  Prints are a Fall MUST HAVE, and Aztec happens to be one of those prints!

How to wear Aztec

Plan on wearing tribal prints this fall! For my fellow fashionista’s out there I love mixing Aztec with other patterns, such as stripes. The key to mixing Aztec with a different pattern (the key to mixing any prints) is uniting one color through the whole look!  For my girls, who are getting started with Aztec, go for a simple look such as an Aztec dress with a blazer over it or colored skinnies with a black and white Aztec top. Some other ways to wear Aztec simply are pair Aztec patterned leggings/pantswith a sheer blouse or jeans with an Aztec top.  If even that is too risky for you, you can always just add Aztec inspired accessories to you outfit such as Aztec patterned booties,a necklace or Aztec fringe bag.


Comment below if you you have any questions or comments on styling Aztec prints! Hope this helps!

XOXO
