Things I am loving this month!

Hello beauties! So this is just going to be a laid back post, of things I am loving this month. After one hell of a week at work and being the fact that I have a huge headache right now, things are going to be simple so for this post and then stay tuned for the end of the blog I will be talking about some of the things I plan on doing for the new year! :)

Neutrogena - healthy skin concealer

This concealer is freaking amazing! My skin even looks a lot clearer now and love it.  I have been using it for about a month now, but I just really like it. The price is not bad at all, and I use a concealer brush when I put it on and it last for the whole day, so that is a win in my book.

MAC powder blush

I got some MAC powder blush and totally worth the money! I get such a nice glow using this and it not to dark but not to light, so you really do not have to put that much on. Of course I do not remember the name of my actual blush this color seen above is too dark for my skin tone.

Double Wear- Estee Lauder Liquid eyeliner

I did a review on this eyeliner along with a bunch of other Estee Lauder items. But I have been using this eyeliner almost every day that I do my makeup and it is just so amazing I can not rave about it enough.

Well to be honest this is not my actual nail polish that I have used but the idea is still the same haha! It is glitter nail polish :) I am really liking the glitter nail polish, it just brightens me up and it fits the season and really all year round plus I just really like glitter ( who doesn't ?)

Now I am really happy to talk a little about what I plan on doing for the new year :)  As of January 1, 2013 I plan on starting to do video blogs, more hauls, and even more makeup ideas! I even want to try and start up a youtube channel but we will just see how things go as of now and hopefully I gather more readers in the new years.

As for this blog I want to thank you all for reading, and be sure to comment, as well as subscribe by email.

Fashion Sizes and why they are a problem

Last night I was out shopping with my dad and we are totally taking advantage of the JcPenney button thing they have going on and I will have more on that later. But I was trying thing on and after trying on like three or four different pairs of jeans I came to the point where I was pissed off and sad and wanted to give up and just go look for something else. But in the dressing room it made me notice something the core reason why I do not like to shop for jeans, why I always head right for the tops and the shoes, along with every thing else but the jeans.

I am super picky when it comes to the type of jeans I wear. They have to be pretty much 100% cotton and they can not be 90% or 50% whatever the precent it is spandex. I just do not like that in my jeans. By the end of the day I do not want my jeans fitting looser or whatever I want them to hug my legs the same way they did that morning that I put them on.

But as I picked what size I was, and took it into the dressing room that is when I became pissed and upset that the size I thought I was just did not fit and at points even though I could get them up over my thighs and what not it gave me a camel toe and just did not look right and I did not feel comfortable in them like it should. But with the feeling that coming over me that I was getting fat I quickly washed that thought out of my head and tried very hard to stay positive. I mean really no girl wants to admit to them self or anyone that they have to go up a size or maybe two, just no! Also to be honest no girl should have to walk out of a dressing room feeling that way. It is disappointing and all around sad.

But as I walked out of the dressing room for what felt like the one million time I stated that they should make all fashion sizes the same. I am sure no one knew what I was talking about it even considered that I was feeling a bit down on the fact the jeans I slightly did not like, just did not fit.

But too what I mean was true they should make all the fashion sizes the same. And what I mean by that is, that the fashion world should be like this, if I am a size 5 in one brand the every other brand I should be a size 5. But no of course it does not work that way sadly. We can not walk into every store and think that it will all be the same. I mean really in some jeans I go from a size 3 to a size 9 and at sometimes it is really annoying I do not know what size to trust.

But to end my point sometimes the fashion world really is cold but we have to keep our chins up and not let it get to us.

Now to another note and a much more happy one JcPenney is having a button give away kinda of thing. I am not sure what to call it. But right now if you go into JcPenney you can get two buttons then enter in online and they will send you coupons and all kind of stuff if your button is a winner. I have gotton $35 total from ( three $10 and one $5 off coupons) from do this. The nice thing is you do not have to go and buy anything from the store all you have to do is just walk in and grab some buttons and you are good to go! They started this December 1st and it is going till December 31st I believe but if you would like you can go to their website for more info. on it.

As always I hope you enjoyed reading my blog and big thanks to anyone that does read! please be sure to leave comments down below as well subscribe so you can see when I post ;)

Lets Talk : Adam Selman Edition

So once again I am starting something new with my blog, we are going to talk about fashion and beauty people that help build or contribute or dominate the fashion and beauty world.  Now me I can at least seven people on the spot that built our fashion world and to this day still some what control it.  But as I was checking out the news today I saw something about Rihanna and this caught my attention ( of course haha) but it is her stylist I guess we can say was the main topic and this got me and now as you can see I was so inspired it to go and write a blog post on it.


Now just as the article I read ( ) says you probably do not know who this person is, but that is ok a lot of fashion gurus start out not known and work their way up ( I mean hello! If working with Rihanna does not get you well know I do not know what will.) but to me point he has created some ( if not all) of her outfits from tours to being back stage at the VMA's read to fix here dress or quickly create a new one. But lets take a look at some of the things that he has created and lets see if he gets the Union Edge approval!

and the man him self!

As you can see he plays a big roll in fashion from styling, Rihanna all the way to Pink and Taylor Swift. This man is a genius in what he does and thanks to him for bringing color and shape into the fashion world.

As always thank you all for reading! It means a lot to me, I hope you enjoyed reading. Be sure to share and also give your thoughts on this post.

Outfit Creation - Christmas ( Holiday) edtion!

It is that time of year again! Time for gift giving, singing, and random people being nice to you for no reason ( even though we all know they would be rude if it was not the Holiday season....how awful!) So here I am again bring to you another outfit creation for the Christmas ( Holiday) season, so before I ramble on lets get this blog started :)

cable knit sweater - forever21

I really like this sweater it just seems cozy and when you are with family and enjoying the day of gifts and eating and being together what more could you want then complete comfort?

Life in progress skinny jeans - forever 21

once again we are going for complete comfort, with this outfit. To me skinny jeans are prettty comfortable, but I went with dark denim jeans I believe that it really compliments the light gray sweater.

Almond toe wedges - forever 21

I really like these shoes this wine red colors will look great for that pop of color and the with the gray and dark denim it will really stand out and look amazing!

tiered dimpled earrings - forever 21

gold is really in this season as far as jewelry goes and with the wine red color and gray this earring are really going to stand out and because we are going really simple with this out we are just going to stick with the earrings

quilted chainn shoulder bag - forever 21

I am totally loving this bag. Once again with the colors of this outfit I think it will look great!

As always I hope you enjoyed reading my blog , bug thanks! Be sure to share with others, as well as post your thoughts on what I picked out and let me know what you think would look better of if you even like it.

Anti Taylor Outfit ( Cosmo)

So due to the fact that I really do not like the outfit that Taylor swift is wearing the November issue of Cosmo and I did a little rant on it HERE. But as you can see the pictures below I took a similar skirt and put together a different outfit and I think it looks a lot better then the awful purple and maroon they put on here.

Taylor Swift

me

For this outfit I took a black sweater dress with a scoop neck from Rue 21 and a maroon skirt from forever 21 with off black stockings from JcPenney and my heels from payless.


As you can see this is my anti Taylor Swift look. I hope you enjoyed reading as always please feel free to leave your thoughts on what Taylor was wearing and if I did any better as well share with others. Big thanks to everyone that reads!

Audrey Hepburn holiday inspired looked

Oh my goodness I had so much fun shooting this look and doing the makeup but aside from doing what I did in this it would be great for a holiday look.

With this outfit I used a white shirt and then paired it with a bandaged black skirt and with off black hosiery with patent leather black heels. The gloves are just costume glove and haha I came up with using a straw at the cigarette ( creative I know) I got the idea from the breakfast at Tiffany's and the pearls went with the idea of the outfit.  The shoes came from payless, the pearls and the white top came from Charlotte Russe, the black gloves came from icing,  off black hoses were from JcPenney, bandage skirt forever 21.  Now if you are just dying to know ha I got the straw from a cafe I eat at everyday haha.

As you can see these are my holiday take on the Hepburn " Breakfast at Tiffany's" look and I love this! As always thanks to everyone that reads, be sure to to comment and share also subscribe by email.

Who inspires my fashion

Over the Holiday weekend I was thinking it would be nice if I show you who inspires my fashion and why talk a little bit about why they inspire me in my fashion.

Audrey Hepburn is amazing I adore her style. She is so classic and lady like. Her style really speaks to me because she is just so girly and I am also very girly. I draw from her simple style and the way she held her self so well and I really like that.

Marilyn Monroe she is so stunning and a sex icon in her day and I draw from that. She was a rebel in her time in both the way she acted and with out a doubt her style and inspires me to take risk in my clothing as well.

Heidi Klum, a Victoria Secret Angel and beautiful model. Here style is so edgy and just always trying some new and I like that about her style. She is great at mixing two blends of style together and daring. With out a doubt some one that inspires my fashion style.

Nicole Scherzinger for the love of all of man kind this women is beautiful. She has been my top inspiration from such a young age. The way she styles her self is amazing, from her hair to her make up right down to her clothes and shoes, she just sparks this amazing light in my creative side for style.

Kim Kardashian I know a lot of people have mixed feeling about her but I like her. She is pretty and daring when it comes to fashion. She works with what she has and is not afraid to show it. I am more of the curvy nature and she has taught me to not be scared to show my curves rather then hide them.

Tyra Banks....who doesn't like Tyra? She is daring and strong and can rock anything she wears. I like that because just like Kim she is curvy and is not afraid to show that. She lets her energy shine through her fashion and that inspires me because I show my emotion through my fashion.

As you can these are the wonderful ladies that inspire me to be the person I am and with out a doubt inspire my style. Each one has built my style single handily and plays a key roll in what I shop for. As always I hope you enjoyed reading my blog, please be sure to share and comment. Thank you everyone that reads my blog it means the world to me.  See you next time ;)
