Spring Wishlist #1 - Dresses & Skirts

Ciao, Bella!
For those who don't know what that means, it means hello beautiful in Italian! In just over 20 days me and my sister are taking a trip with our school to France and Italy for 10 days at Easter! I am getting so exicted for this trip, and I have to get working on learning some French and Italian words! Funny thing is that I am half Italian, but I hardly know any Italian words...haha.

Anyways, yesterday Chloe posted a spring and summer wishlist on her blog (click here to see it!) and it got me inspired to make a spring wishlist too! This will be the first of many wishlists I post since I am in need of some pastel and bright spring colors!

So lets get to it!

Bodycon Floral Lace Mesh Dress
$16.99 - Urban Planet



I wanted to start out with this super cute floral dress. Spring, I think, is the perfect time to wear any type of flower prints which is why this dress stood out so much to me. The would pair this with any pink-y color flats or heels to bring out the pink from the dress.

Lace Tutu Dress
$16.99 - Urban Planet

As I was looking at dresses, I first just scrolled by this dress, not really interested in it, but as I passed it again there was something that stuck out about this dress that I really like. Maybe that it is so different but also really girly and sweet looking. I don't know, but I like it haha. With this dress you could really pair it with color and it would look great!

One Shoulder Ponte Dress
$14.50 - Forever 21

This is such a simple dress, but it is super cute! I love how it is one shoulder, because it gives a  different style to this dress. I also really love the color! I would pair this dress with some nude or white heels or flats.

Sstriped Boat Neck Dress
(Sale) $11.90 - Forever 21

I am in love with this dress so much! I really think it is because of the colors. They just say spring/summer all over it. I love how in the picture, the model is wearing a blue purse. It would be a little out of my comfort zone, but I would definately pair this dress with some blue flats or heels that are like the color of that purse!



Multi Color Stripe Mini Skirt
$12.99 - Stitches

This is such a fun skirt! It has a bunch of fun summer colors which makes it super cute. For a top, this skirt would be able to be paired with any of the colors in it, or even a black or white top would be super cute too. As for shoes, you could pick any color from the shirt and wear heels / flats of that color.

Tribal Print Skirt
 $9.99 - Stitches

And last but not least, I am IN LOVE with tribal print pieces. So when I saw this skirt, I was like I want it! haha. And on top of that, it it super cheap too! I have so many tribal print tops in my closet, so a tribal print skirt is the next thing I would want! I actually like how it is shown on the model - with dark tights and a grey top. I would pair this with either orange or blue flast or heels to carry out the colors in the skirt!

And that is my first spring wish list!
What do you think? Which is your favourite?



Spring Makeup Look #1

Hi Ladies!
I am actually exicted to do this post today. It is my first spring makeup look for this season! There is only 10 days left until spring officially arrives, so I thought I would get a start on some makeup looks!

Blues and Greens were my inspiration for this look, since those are the two colors that come to my mind first when I think of spring! :)

To create this look, I used the light blues and greens from my E.L.F 100 Shadow Palette. I am exicted to be using this palette for spring because it has a bunch of light colors perfect for the coming season!

What do you think of this makeup look?



Out With The Old; In With The Bold!

Hi Beauties!

I cant believe this but there are only...

I cant wait for all the snow to start melting, and all the spring plants to start growing again! Sadly where I live we just had a blizzard the other day so there is so much snow! Crossing my fingers that the snow will melt fast!!

This week I wasn't planning on posting about my nail art, but I keep getting compliments on it so I decided might as well! :)



I used China Glaze's Polish in Jamaican Out on my entire nails, then I used my American Painter Nail Art Brush and some black polsish to add the details to my nails!

I also wanted to include some spring trends that I am loving this coming season!

I am really exicted for bold and bright colors, but also for pastel colors too! I am especially loving the mint green color (as shown above)! Winter can get so gloomy since there is just alot of dark colors, so I am exicted to start wearing lots of colors!

What spring trend are you exicted for??

February Faves!

Hiii Beauties!
It's that time...

I know I say this every month, but seriously February went by sooo fast! It's crazy! I also can't believe that in 4 months I am going to be graduating from high school, now that is something crazy too!

For my favorites this month, I don't have anything too special, kind of the usual.

•  Avon Ideal Shade Concealer
• Physicians Formula Concealer
• NYC Liquid Eyeliner 

•  EOS Lipbalm
• L.A. Colors Color Craze Polish in Jewel Tone
• Wet n' Wild Wild Shine Polish in Night Prowl
  

                       
  John Frieda Lightening Spray        AG Cosmetics Conditioner

I'm sure I have mentioned all these products before, but I am still loving them!

I have also been loving this St. Ives Apricot Scrub which I have not mentioned before. I just want to say that after you scrub your face with this, it leaves your face super super soft! Once I started using this I was so suprised how great my skin felt! Defs reccomend this one!

And lastly I had to put this one in here. Its the new song by One Direction called What Makes You Beautiful. I love this song so much right now! Haha. Defs give it a listen!

 

What are your February Favorites??



 

How To: 4 Strand Braid

Hi Beauties! Today I have a post on how to get this super cute and unique 4-strand side braid! It may look hard but it is actually really easy, and after 1 or 2 times of practicing it you will be a pro!

To get this 4-strand braid follow these easy steps:

1. Pull all your hair to one side of your face. Perferably the side opposite of your bangs, if you have side swept bangs that is.

2. Split your hair into 4 equals sections. (This part my be tricky for some of you :p)

3. Now take the section of hair that is the furthest from your ear, and weave it under the section next to it.

4. Once you have done that, take the same strand, and weave it over the next section, and then take that strand and once again weave it under the last section of hair.

5. Once that first section is beside your ear, you can tighten your braid.

6. Now take the section that is furthest away from your ear, and repeat the same steps. Do this until you have braided all of your hair. *Remember to always to take the section of hair furthest away from your ear and weave it under first.

7. Once you have tied your braid, I pulled the sections of hair apart a little to give it more of a messy look.

And you're done!

What do you think of this look? Let me know if you try this braid!
