Update on life: Prom,Graduation,Senior Week!!

Hey guys!!

Its been a while since I posted and I'm sorry! But over the past couple months, I have been busy with finalizing things for school, getting ready for graduation, and prepping myself for college and well its just been crazy crazy! Anyways today's post will be about prom, graduation, and my senior week! Yes!!

Let's start off with prom. Wow, it was pretty awesome. It was fun and memorable. I didn't have a prom date but that's alright. So don't feel pressured to get a prom date. I actually went with my best girlfriends and just had fun. No stress. This was actually my first(and last) prom that I went to and our prom theme was Hollywood nights and yeah, I walked the red carpet like a boss! Ha ha anyways, there must be some general questions like what did my prom dress look like and where did I get it from and how much was the dress was usually the kind of general questions that I'm guessing other girls ask others when they talk about Prom, etc. Well, my prom dress is actually made by me. The materials I used for this dress took me a course of a month to make and it was a nude undertone with lace on top of the nude, complete with a sparkly chiffon mermaid bottom. This was all HAND-SEWN!! Yes, it was. Why did I hand-sewn it? Well, I do not know how to use a sewing machine nor did I had access to one so yup. Anyways here is the outcome of the dress:

So yeah, I'm happy with the outcome and yes, I did run into some problems with the dress towards the end such as when I tried it on, it was a bit too tight around the hip area but I was still able to move comfortably. My shoes for prom were silver with glitter straps and they were about 5 inches with a 1 inch platform. They are from Payless from the Fioni Night line and they cost about $30. They were comfortable but they pinched my pinkie toe and well they did end up coming off at prom.

So what did my nails look like? Well they were an ombre nude to black with glittered tips and on my ring fingers, I had silver rhinestones. Difficulty level: easy.

So after prom, I was getting ready for graduation! Yay! I actually don't have any pictures of me with a graduation cap and gown soooo yeah, I think later on when I actually get the pictures back, I will upload them but until then, lets move on to SENIOR WEEK!!!

So about 2 days after graduating, on Sunday, June 2nd, my friends and I went on a trip to Ocean City. I had so much fun and I'm so glad I had went. I walked the boardwalk practically everyday and I tanned so much, but not intentionally tanning. I went to the beach like only two times and there was a lot of people, especially Seniors! I brought about maybe $350-$400 with me on the trip. Honestly, I spent about $20-$30 a day to play arcade games, eat, shop, etc. I didn't take a lot of pictures but I know that the memories I had was the best I had so far.

So yeah that was some of the few pics I took in OC! It was a lot of fun. If you have ever went, you would know how fun it is and if you haven't went at all or didn't go yet, its all good. Not everyone goes and don't feel pressured to go cause everyone else is going. Just do what you want to do and no one is gonna judge you. I went cause I wanted to have one last Senior moment and it was worth it.

Thanks for everything guys! I will be posting up some more things in the future, so make sure to come back occasionally and check up!!

Have an awesome day!!

Update + Feminine Girly Nail Tutorial

Hey guys, how have you been?!

So I've been pretty much bored and not really bothering with this site much cause I'm always on TUMBLR!!!! My tumblr page is my personal and latest addiction and this blog is the more serious, "I got to get to work" kind of blog where I share tips and tutorials. So yes! If you guys want, just follow me on Tumblr and you can be update on EVERYTHING from personal to whatever!!

Okay, so now on to the fun stuff!

Today I'm gonna be sharing a cute and feminine nail tutorial that is really easy to do. It's not a loud nail look but its like a subtle but polished girly nails.

So yeah, for some reason when I was doing this nail look for my nails, there were like these little bumps that appeared that made the nail look...bumpy...but believe me, it may have been the nail polish since I had this nail polish in my storage for a while. Also excuse my cracked nail on my thumb, it was breaking and I didn't have the heart to cut it until I took a picture of the nail tutorial! So yes, the struggle to just cut it was really high.

Materials and Nail Polish:

Essie #664 Mamba, Milani High Speed Fast Dry #22 White on the Spot, Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Pearly White

Paper & Bobby Pin/dotting tool

1) Ok so first paint a neutral pinks/nudes onto your nails. Paint until it is opaque. Let dry COMPLETELY. I'm using Essie #664 Mamba.

 2) Next using an off white or grey(only if you are using a lighter nail polish color as base), draw two lines parallel to each other at a diagonal angle of the nail. The white and nude color contrast each other so that it would make it stand out but not too much. So if you are using a light color such as a neutral pink, use a gray color to contrast with the pink. Here I'm using Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Pearly White.

 

 

3) Next, draw dots with the same nail art pen in between the two parallel lines like so.

4) Then take a white nail polish(or any nail polish color of your choice) and place some on a piece of paper. Take your dotting tool, which in my case a bobby pin, and dip one end of it into the nail polish. I'm using Milani High Speed Fast Dry in #22 White on the Spot.

5) Then on the bottom, opposite side of the parallel lines that was drawn earlier, draw a heart with the dotting tool. To do this, just pretend you are writing the letter "V". Let dry COMPLETELY.

6) Now all that needs to be done is to apply top coat and your done!

Alright so I hope you like this tutorial and ask questions or comment below if you have anything to say.

See ya later!!

LookBook: Leopard Face

Hey Guys! So every year on Halloween, I've been dressing up and going trick-or-treating. Now I know your probably like "why are you trick-or-treating? Your like old". Well I go because I can get free candy and hang out with my friends. Sometimes there's Halloween parties that I go to, but trick-or-treating is always fun too!

So this year, I was a leopard and I had the whole face makeup and the leopard onesies(you know those things that you wear to sleep? yeah) and the cat ears and tail BUT my makeup isn't like those typical "I'm a cat because I drew cat whiskers and a cat nose with a black marker", no. Mine is really different to what the typical everyday cat makeup. Here, I'll show you:

 

SO YES!! I was a leopard and my makeup isn't your typical everyday cat makeup. Here is some more pictures of my makeup, up close:

So your probably thinking, where and how did I come up with this look and how I had achieved well, I got this from looking at some leopard faces and such and I tried my best adding in some key elements into my look from these pics:

As you can see, the last picture above, is from 2011, where I created the same leopard face for the 2011 spirit week.

So yes, this took approximately 3 hours the first time I done it in 2011 and only 45 minutes for me to do this
the second time.

So what products did I use to create this look? WELL pretty simple actually, I just used all drugstore makeup. YUP drugstore makeup. I used eyeshadow for the coloring of the skin, eyeliners for the lips/marks/leopard print, etc
Here are the SPECIFIC products I used:

• Maybelline Color Tattoo in #5 Too Cool, #10 Fierce & Tangy, #45 Bold Gold,, #300 Gold Shimmer
• NYC Liquid Eyeliner in 888A Pearlized Black
• Elf Liquid Eyeliner in #4210 Copper
• Maybelline Color Plush Silk Eyeshadow Quad in #5 Give Me Gold
• Maybelline Master Drama in Midnight Master
• Elf Dome Eyeshadow Brush

So yup, if you guys want to have a tutorial on how to do this, just comment below!
Anyways have a great day!!
