From cAuSaL to Classy

A different View

Intro

Hello readers!  I just woke up from my nap and my friends are probably wondering where I went but I was sooooo tired that I just totally passed out.  Oh well, for this week, it was campaign week!...and I am running for SophomoreRep; at the end of the week on Friday we had to give our speeches.  I thought I was about to throw up butterflies but it turned out to be good:).  Besides, I didn't have my glasses so everyone looked like a blob various colors.  Before we track off, I am going to show you an outfit of the day sort of thing, let's get started!

Causal:

I didn't want to arrive to school with TOO much fancyness so I "covered" it up by wearing a plain jean shirt long sleeve thingy (denim shirt).  I didn't button the last two of my denim shirt and tied it together to make it more fitting. As you may be wondering I bought my denim long sleeve from Forever 21 (here is a semi-similar shirt as I am wearing now from Forever 21) and my dress from Tj Maxx.  My bracelet was a gift and my earrings were for my former dance competitions.  I also just wore my white knockoff Vans to give a casual feel.  I still wore my earrings (clip ons hurt) and my bracelete. 

Just Casual

Classy:

For my classy side, I just kind of stripped off my long sleeve and added a necklace with my five inch heels.  It is extremely difficult walk in those and my bought them for me the day before the speech soooo I didn't have any time to practice.  My biggest worry was to fall in front of everyone because of such high shoes.  Take that high heels!  I did NOT fall and I thanked the High Heel Goddess.

Seriously Wind?

Sparkle Baby!

Thank you for reading today's blog, I hope you guys have a great day (or what is left of it).  And as always, stay beautiful;)

TaRgEt HaUl

TARGET HAUL

Intro

Hello!!! Today I am extremely thrilled to share with you guys my Tarje haul.  Okay, this weekend I went to Target to find some leggings and socks but I started to wander off onto clothes and found myself with a whole basket.  Jeez, my shopping craze can blow up but as soon as it does, I get bored and want to leave.  Annnyyyways, after trying on all these clothes I only chose about three items that I needed or any basics for my closet.  I also bought some beauty products with my own money but it was sooo aggravating for me to not buy another mascara.  Those little poops are really addicting to buy!  

Item #1

The first item I bought was this simple white t-shirt.  I used to have one until I washed the shirt with darks (Tushig do you ever use your brain?)...so it turned all gross and grey so I was in a need of a plain tee.  I honestly think a plain white t-shirt is an essential for any closet; it can be pair with anything or go as itself (I wore my plain tee with overalls).

Item #2

Yayay, I found myself with another crop top.  This kind of crop top isn't all fancy or proper.  It has more of a laid back feature to it and I think that is what makes it special.  It's also is a muscle tee so it can be worn as a top for swimming suits, bandos, or even tank tops.  The tank top material is extremely soft translating to being realllyy comfy.

Item #3

OVERALLSSSS...okay well I guess I'm a little excited but guys like seriously, I love overalls.  I used to own one as a child but they have made their comeback and are ready to be trendy as ever (If you want to see more of a 90's combacks check out Dani's blog).  This sweet baby is the fashion statement.  Personally, I like overall shorts and dresses than actual pant overalls because the pants makes me look short and chubby.  If you look wonderful in them, I am soooo jealous...you make everyone jealous, so keep on wearing them!  (Tip: Do not tighten your straps too tight or else it will become an uncomfortable situation.) 

Item #4

Do you ever get that feeling after wearing mascara everyday?Your eyelashes are like drooping and dying.  Well it's happening to my eyelashes now and I feel bad for them.  The eye make up remover I use is just the plain wipes.  Let me tell you after like three months, my eyelashes started to fall out, literally.  I felt like taking more care of them so I bought the Almay Long and Waterproof Eye Makeup Remover pads.  The advantage to this is it's ready to be used with prepared pads.  I recommend it to people who wear waterproof mascara because 90% of the pad is oil so it's great for removing waterproof eye makeup.

Image Courtsey to Revlon

Item #5  

Beginning from May, I have to attend all these fancy events which translates into buying more makeup!!! Jk, but the only missing beauty product in my makeup collection was a light pink lipgloss.  From Target I bought the Revlon Pango Peach.  The color gives off a slight shine and makes your lips look pumped and big (considering that my lips are already big... I only use one coat).

 

Item #6

Hey people, I had this craving for white clean shoes.  Do you ever get these cravings for shoes?  Let's make up a term for it and call it Shoe Craves (such a creative term).  After shopping for clothes, I bolted for the shoe section. I bought Van knock offs and they look exactly like the real Vans too. Can you believe it? The shoes were ONLY twelve dollars...yes please one for me!

Thank you for reading the newest haul and as always stay beautiful:)

B...F...C!!!

@ Michaels

Intro

Hello readers out there, how are you?  Good, today I am doing something different to spice up this beauty blog and it's called a BFC!!!  In case you haven't read it on Emily's blog, it stands for Best Friend Collab.  You choose any one of your best friends and just talk about your many adventures, how you became friends, and all the other things best friends do.  Besides,it is going to be Emily's birthday next week so it's like a birthday shout for her too!  Yay! you get to learn about us woohoo...okay let's get started.

First Impression...or Calculators

Soo, all I remember of Emily the first time I saw her was this tiny little person who seemed to have this perfect "be my friend" aura.  The moment I sensed this I was like YES I will and be her friend.  It took some time because she was a complete stranger to me and a factor of Emily being shy became a slight problem.  I slowly inched with small conversations but our first like friend thingy was when we were in science (the only class I had with her so it was always in science).  I asked to be her partner and I think she thought I was some sort of a creep but I guess she was fine with it and said, "sure."  The end of science was coming faster and we had to finish our "oh so hard" seventh grade science lab.  We dashed for our calculators and plugged in the numbers. It turned out we had totally different answers; the calculators kept telling us two completely irrelevant numbers.  Being the "intelligent" seventh graders, we traded our old calculators to see if it was the calculator (not us...phhsshsh).  Hahahaha..if I ever went back and saw little Emily and Tushig, I would burst open and laugh.

Please Don't Kill Me Emily

Adventures...and Stalking;)  

Emily and I have a huge list of our adventures we have gone through and experienced through out the years.  Most "adventures" were from last year.  Every other day -- after math class last year -- we both had to drag ourselves to the high school but the most interesting part was sharing our stories.  We would exchange all of our "personal" happenings and exchange laughs along the way.  Even though it was a small five minute walk, that was when we actually became closer.  The most fun factor was having not one person behind us listening and it was second period so we could talk about ANYTHING.  (Emily, if you are reading this then you probably know what I'm talking about.)

Our other adventures consisted of stalking people (more like boys) by searching for their houses (oh jeez now the whole world knows...jk know one reads this blog sooo) and online for two hours hahahaha.  There was also you know just touching, a dead cow's heart and lungs...joyful (and it smelled so nicely...Emily can tell you every thing about it).  We went to this University thing and all these smart and nerdy children were there and we felt really stupid but that was okay.  Also at that University thing, we were forced to dance to this Brave song...I'm sorry can we take a moment to just imagine that.  Imagine all these smart but nerdy kids who are awkward and TOTAL strangers; they wanted all of US to dance and be "crazy." Let's just say... no thank you
Emily and I also made up code names heeehee (Steven, Monkey, AM, and many more), make up dances in our seats (CcccCcc), and sing about food in Emily's lunch:)  (Quesadilla...lllalllalla)

Skiing with Emily and Sabrina :)

Emily <3  

What I love most about Emily is her perrrsonality..yes.  At first she seems shy and you would NEVER think she could be this crazy person after getting to know her better.  Emily is one of the MOST intelligent friend I have ever met and she always a great source to talk to.  Her sense of humor is like mine so when we joke about the most dumbest things, we always have laugh attacks.  Emily loves to dance with her TALENTED dance moves and is always obsessed with Josh Hutcherson (Honey, you can do sooo much better!).  Her tiny little self makes me want to hug her and protect her but do not get fooled because she can perfectly defend herself (she has a full poppin six pack soooo yaaa).  Happy Early Birthday!  I hope you get an Ipad for your birthday and many other incredible wishes you with for... I LOVE YOU EMILY!!!!

Korean Inspired Makeup Tutorial

Makeup Makeup Makeup

Intro

As most you of you guys know, I am obsessed with everything that has to do with Korea.  Even right now I'm listening to Kpop while writing this blog heeehee.  I decided to do a makeup tutorial on Korean makeup because their way of using makeup is a little bit different from the U.S.  It may seem kind of weird but work with me because I am actually excited to do this blog post.  Okay, let's get started!

Step 1    

Apply BB cream, foundation, lotion or what ever type of base you like to use to start with.  In Korea, they want to have lighter skin (the ideal skin color) so they usually choose a lighter shade from their body...I think our own skin color is beautiful but what ever floats your boat.

Any Base

Step 2

I am going to apply some eyeshadow primer before applying eyeshadow and eye liner because it lasts longer and prevents smudging.  I bought the Naked Pallet 3 which came with Urban Decay samples so I took advantage of this.  (I was soo excited cause I couldn't buy the fifty dollar eye primer with the other fifty dollar eyeshadow pallet.)

Samples

Step 3  

I am taking this neutral matte color (beige or light brown) as the over all base.  Koreans do not use much eye shadow because they want to aim for a natural look.  This eyeshadow just gives a small spice to your eyes.  After applying the basic "coat" for the eyes take a shimmery or sparkly pink eyeshadow to highlight under your eyes.  This gives a soft glow to your eyes and shows "aegyo" fat; if you have "aegyo" fat it is meant to make your look younger and youthful. If you want you, can use some of your light eyeshadow to highlight the brow bone too.

Beige or Light Brown

Just Smelling the Air

Step 4 

Now, I am taking a pencil liner (Bare Minerals Big and Bright in Black Coffee) to line my eyes.  It doesn't HAVE to be a pencil but I prefer it because it gives a softer look and again with the youthful kind of image.  I am lining the eye at the base and at the end of the line this is when the key part of Korean concept comes in.  You want to keep the line down as you draw it instead of winging it.  This downward eye line gives a puppy eye feel and the particular line technique is extremely popular in Korea. (Here is more information on the technique wengie.com)

In Black Coffe

Keep the eyeliner down

Step 5

The easiest step is to curl dem lashes and add coats of mascara.  There isn't a perfect way to apply but I love mascara because it makes my eyelashes apear to be longer and fuller.  (Hahahahaahah even though they are sooooo short.)

Mascara collection

Mascara!!!

Step 6 

For blush, I am barely using (The Bare Minerals Avent-Garden) lighten my cheeks.  You want to gently fluff your cheeks with the blush brush. WIth the light skin tone and natural look, blush isn't necessary but I will use a small amount for the fun of it.

Avant-Garden

Blush Time

Step 7

For the last and final step take a shade of light pink or orange lipgloss.  The ombre look or orange lips are THE trend in Korea.  I didn't feel like wearing ombre lips but there will be a picture of it at the end of the blog.

Lip Collection

Lipzzz

Yayay we have finally finished the look and now you know how to apply a Korean styled makeup.  (You can let your hair down after all your makeup is done... yes yes) I hoped this helped and was fun to read, it was soooo hard to take these pictures and awkward because my parents thought I was taking selfies when in reality I was actually taking selfies for English!  Thank you and as always stay beautiful;)

Finished Look

Oh and here is the picture for the Korean Ombre Lips, they actually look pretty cool.  As you can see it starts with from a dark shade and transforms into a light or neutral color. Comment below if you want to try out the ombre look!

What's in My Backpack?

What's in my Backpack?

Intro

For this weeks blog, I have planned on showing you guys what I usually pack in my backpack for school.  All these items aren't limited you to what to pack but just giving an example of what I usually carry during school days.  As the year is winding down, more piles of homework is given so I think this is a great time, let's begin!

Backpack

As you can see here, my backpack is from the company TrailMaker (ClassyChic's sister gave this to me, thank you) and has continuous hearts printed on.  I think the colors compliment well with each other and it can match with every outfit. (An advantage with a pink and brown backpack)  We have laptops at our school so carry mine in a beat up laptop case which I kept for three years now.  I guess you can say that the laptop and the backpack are like a package.

Carrying both can become heavy

Pocket #1 

In my first and smallest pocket of the backpack is where I place my phone and keys. It's a pocket to keep more important items because I usually won't pull things in and out constantly.  It keeps my phone and keys safe. (Tip: Keep your phone and keys somewhere safe.  Place them in the same spot in order to not lose.)

My phone

My Keys

Pocket #2

In my second pocket or second smallest pocket is where I just keep random little knick-knacks in.  For example, my mom always nags about keeping tissues so I have a big stash of three packages.  Hey, you never know when that bloody nose will be in extreme need of tissues. The second thing I have in here are my headphones.  I always keep a pair of headphones just in case I feel like I'm in the mood for listening to music.  The last item are my erasable color pencils.  School always ask from coloring a map to color coding words; I can whip these out and be ready for any assignment.

Random/Not Random Items

Pocket #3

In my third to largest pocket, I keep more important items for school.  I would recommend everyone (especially students in high school) to keep a planner.  As your classes progress and become difficult, the planner will save your life and your your grade.  It will also keep you from becoming a crazy lunatic.  The second item I keep in my backpack are my glasses.  I despise wearing my glasses but I am forced to in order for me to see the board.  The last item is pink pearly beauty bag for products.  When ever I am wearing perfume, lotion, or deodorant;  I carry extra with me because you never know when you will be in need for these important products.  

Important Items

Pocket #4

The last and biggest pocket holds all my books, binders, and notebooks.  Usually I keep my pencil bag, homework binder, and an extra notebook (if I ever need more paper) on a regular daily basis. Today I brought my Spanish and Biology binders home to study (oh the joy) and my English book To Kill A Mocking Bird.  I can also just throw an extra thing in here since it is the biggest pocket..duh.. to carry to school. 

Inside View

    

Three current items in my backpack

Yayay! We are finally finished with my backpack.  Somedays it can be full and weigh up to a thousand pounds  but other days it weighs light as a feather.  I hope you guys enjoyed the post and as always, stay beautiful!

DRESS to IMPRESS

Four Spring Outfits

Intro

Helloooooo! This week I decided to do a fashion post because I never really ever posted one.  (Of course, Maddi was the one to persuade me)  It's already March and spring is coming faster than we thought.  It was like yesterday when summer just ended and we all had to go to school last year. Spring time means dressy time; the phrase can be translated to dresses and skirts.  This post will show you how to style dresses and skirts for this new spring.

Kitty Kat

This first outfit consists of two essential clothing, a crop top and a skater skirt.  Now, I am not recommending to show your belly to the world but if there is litte skin showing then it is fine.  For me, I make sure the crop top doesn't ride to high. (This is the reason skater skirts are high waisted...duh)  This outfit is great for dates, going out with friends, or shopping.  I styled it with a kitty kat hat for a more cuter look.  

Kitty Kat

Kitty Hat: Pac Sun

Crop top: Aeropostale (Bethany Mota Collection)

Skater Skirt: Aeropostale (Bethany Mota Collection)

Owl Necklace: Australia

Combat Boots: Journeys

Angel's Breath

This second outfit is a simple white dress and I wore to the Taylor Swift Concert.  It can be styled with a statement necklace or for this picture I paired it with a red scarf type belt.  Just add something to a simple colored dress to make it pop.  This dress can be worn at parties or events.

Angel's Breath

Headband: Clairs

Skater Dress: Tj Maxx

Belt: Closet

Red Converse: Journeys

Necklace: Forever 21

Funky Town

This third outfit is more of a funky one.  It's for the people who are outgoing and don't care what others think.  I looove this outfit because it's different and the vibe is cheerful.  I paired a semi crop top with this cat skirt.  (Tip: Do not style a pattern skirt with another pattern becaue it will distract and confuse the eyes) I paired the outfit with some similar color shoes and headband for the matching look.

Funky Town

Crop Top: Urban Outfitters

Skater Skirt: H&M

Headband: Forever 21

Flats: Nine West

Meet Me at the Beach

This last outfit is more low key than the other outfits.  I bought this outfit in California in this cute little boutique.  My favorite advantage of boutiques is that they have a huge supply of the same shirt.  So you won't be walking down the street seeing the girl wearing the same shirt as you. (Ummmm...embarrasing?)  I just styled this high low tank with leggings to emphasize the tank.

Meet Me at the Beach

High to low tank: Boutique in California

Black Leggings: Boutique in California

Elephant Necklace: Pac Sun

Black High Heels: Forever 21


I hope you guys liked the fashion post and comment which outfit you liked best.  As always stay beautiful ;)
