After a weekend of snow i am ready for spring. I want to wear thin cotton dresses with sandals and eat Mr. Softies and have to put on sunscreen. I can just imagine lying in the sun but it's still February. Waiting sucks :(
As many of you should know by now, pastels are the new "Thing". I love pastels and they are very easy to wear but as it is February, wearing a light pink dress with light blue flats isn't very appropriate. So let's keep it on our faces. Pastels aren't mean to overwhelm your face so a sheer-ish color with a hint of shimmer works best. you can then layer that or leave it simple. Most people look good in light green but light purple and blue also work nicely. Light eyeshadow is very versatile so you can pair it with any lip color. I prefer to keep the rest of my face simple with some gloss but you can be very daring. Red lips would complement shimmery pastel eyes if your very confident, or you could create a cat eye with the color with rosy cheeks.
This makeup for ever shadow has a little shimmer and is great for layering. It can look very intense and matte if you want or like a light pastel. the purple color has a little red in it so it would look good on many people.
I like to use Clinique and makeup forever for light eyes, but to each their own.

Right now

Is crazy! I was about to blog about spring until this crazy snowstorm started. In these confusing times, I've put two outfits together to keep things interesting so you don't grow bored of your winter wardrobe.
Almost everyone has a cozy sweater, so just add a bright leggings and a beret. Neutrals are very in and this outfit is made of very comfortable fabrics. (Rick Owens cashmere Sweater-Net-a-porter.com; French connection leggings-Johnlewis.com; Margiela jacket-net-a-porter; Liberty brand hat-Liberty.co.uk; Carvin shoes-net-a-porter.com)
For those wanting to embrace the spring trend of nautical can do it easily. A nautical dress can be worn in February if you add jeggings and a trench. Hot pink boots keep this interesting.(the dress is out of stock from oli.co.uk; Burbury prorsum coat-Mytheresa.com; seven for all mankind jeggings-net-a-porter.com; Ami clubwear boots)

Key pieces for days like this? Leggings and scarves; they'll keep you warm but it easy to incorporate style into them.
Well, go rainproof you leather and suede and have fun!

Today I felt like an idiot

It was fifty degrees out and I paid no attention to any past experiences and went out in a mini and two small sweaters. It's ridiculous that I have no sense of how I'll feel when the weather is between sixty and forty. I just can't imagine how cold it will feel until I feel it.
I know today's not one of the days I promised to post but I'm making up for the days I missed.
Since It's troubled me for a while I thought I tackle all the mystery about dress codes for parties.
For casual, you can probably wear jeans but make sure you know what type of person is hosting the party. Others idea of casual could differ with yours. Always keep one peice special though. A top like this could easily be dressed up or down. A pencil skirt or jeans are easy choices.
Festive, club and cocktail wear are more dressed up and you can be very fun and outgoing with what you wear (unless of course the host is very conservative). Mini's are also appropriate. I would go with a dress but you could easily wear a skirt. If the event is specified as cocktail I would go with something a bit longer like this:
This one looks better on and the seaming is beautiful.
For black tie optional go for longer dresses in special fabrics and not tons of skin. this one comes in tons of colors and the cut is perfect.
Black tie should be something very special.

If you wear vintage you can be sure no one else will be wearing what you are. You can be unique and very pretty in such a dress and if you know where to look they can be cheaper than current dresses. This one is so special I feel lucky just looking at it.

I know many fashion bloggers (yes I consider myself one though I post a lot about ME too) are talking fashion week but frankly, I'm not feeling very spring-y. The weathers to cray. I may check out Style.com next week but till then, I'm good with reading mags.

Happy School!

Hope you guys all had a good day at school! I have orientation tomorrow but I get homework so it's sorta like a normal day. I spent a good 2 hours choosing an outfit (two to choose from). I checked the weather after and found it says cold and rainy which sucks, It's barely fall!
I'm a gonna go get a pumpkin spice latte, Bye.

Layering

I've watched tv all day and then I got ice cream (definitely try oatmeal cookie chunk).
Just like many of you, I have mixed feelings about Fall. I love the season and the holidays but going back to school is eh. I already know what I'm being for Halloween and can't wait to buy candy corn. I know many people prefer Summer to any other season but I love Spring and Fall best. They're unpredictable in terms of weather, but I think that makes it all the more fun to get dressed in the morning because you have to layer.
Layering is an everyday thing for many people because it makes life easier. You can be prepared for any weather that might happen. If you layer a few sweaters over a tank because it's cold when you wake up, you can just take a few off if it becomes hotter. Layering also allows you to add personality to boring outfits.
Layer a few necklaces and a scarf over a t-shirt and jeans and you get an outfit that's comfy and shows off your personality. Adding a sweater and belting it can show off your shape.
Adding a belt can often make an outfit. I've heard many people ask about belts and they're pretty uncomplicated if you know two things. Skinny belts look best with thin layers and thicker belts look best with baggy layers. Of course these rules are debatable and sometimes a thicker belt will look nice with thin layers, but when you are picking out a belt it helps if you can narrow down your choices through these rules.
Many magazines and other bloggers have talked about layering because it is fairly common, so I hope you can read what I've written and compare it to other sources.
Have fun! Mwah Mwah!!!!!!!

What I'm lovin before camp.

I'm going to spill what I'm lovin lately as I can't get anything till, like August.

• Firstly, I love that I made the cheesecake(1 more hour and we can eat it) but on to clothes and stuff.
• I'm lovin bold prints for dresses, they look awesome! You can show so much personality by the pattern and cut. Plus, you'll stand out!
• Florals are another thing I can't get enough of. Floral jewelery, dresses, boots, and more jewelery.

• Cool tees with look at me sayings are sooo supposed to be mine so if you have one it's technically mine.

• Unconventional denim is also an awesome. Unexpected but goes with many things.

• Lastly, polka polka dots and lace are sweet and looking at the makes my day!
