The Lying Game

Evening! I know its late, but I just had to do a post! I watch the Lying Games on a regular basis. I LOVE this show. Its sooooo intense! Tonights episode was especially intense! The twins in the show have killer style. Not to mention, there is some fine man candy (hehe). Just wanted to share some outfits with you guys that I am loving! I am thinking soon I will do an OOTD in which I try and recreate an outfit from the show!








Isn't he sooo hot?! New crush for sure!

Do you watch the Lying Game? What are your thoughts on the cast's style? What do you think is going to happen next?

XOXO Gossip Girl

Hello!
Lately I have been completely obsessed with Gossip Girl! Seasons 1-4 is on Netflix & literally, that is all I have been doing. Serena & Blair's style is incredible. Serena has a tendency to be more bold with her outfit choices, while Blair has the classy, sophisticated style. Both I ADORE! & they have the best hair! I am in love with Serena's wispy locks. They are beautiful when they are messy & windblown. Blair's hair is gorgeous when it is curled & when it is down up in pretty updos. & of course her signature headbands! Not only am I obsessing over their create sense of style, I have been green with envy of their lives! I find myself wishing I lived their lives, and wondering what I would do in their shoes. Crazy right?! Now I have a super strong urge to go to New York! Here are a few of my favorite outfits from the show :)

Inspiration: Lauren Conrad

Lauren Conrad is my idol. I think she is one of the most aspirational individuals in Hollywood. She started out in high school on a reality show called Laguna Beach on MTV & ended up as a successful business woman. After Laguna Beach, she starred in a spin off reality show called the Hills, which was highly successful. Instead of falling into the usually Hollywood cliche of partying & being unruly, she used her stardom to put herself & her dreams into action. She is not only a reality star, but a best-selling author, designer, & entrepreneur. She has a three part book series LA Candy and fashion book called Style. She has a spin off book series in the making, launching this spring, and a beauty book out soon. She recently launched a line of clothing called Paper Crown & has a line at Kohls. She also has two blog sites that are widely popular, which are linked on my side bar of my website.

The reason I adore her so much is because instead of changing for the Hollywood scene, she remained true to herself. She didn't abuse her new found fame. She used to to achieve her dreams and better herself. She has such incredible style and taste in clothes. I love her line at Kohls, and I hope one day to own a piece from her Paper Crown collection. I think she is one of the most gorgeous women in the world, and she is a role model to girls of all ages. I hope one day to be as successful as she.

Why do you like admire Lauren Conrad? Who is one of your role models?

My First OOTD!

Hey hey! So I am very excited because I am posting my very first Outfit of the Day post :) This post will include my outfit, makeup & hair. I hope you like it  :)

So today I went for a casual, comfy look that was still trendy. I got my plaid shirt from Target, my jeans from Hollister, my boots from Love Culture, & my necklace from Styles For Less. Unfortunetly I forgot where I got my tank top from. This outfit is one of my favorites. It is really cute for the day & can even be worn for a casual date. I think it is perfect for school as well. It's cute and it's easy to throw on in the morning.


For my make-up & hair, I wanted to comliment my casual outfit with a easy, natural-looking look. I used a peachy blush with soft shades of brown on my eyes. I used a darker brown in my outer crease. I used liquid eye liner on my top lid & used black mascara. I also filled in my brows. For my hair, I parted it slightly off-centered & did my bangs in a twist to the side.

If you want any further details about my look, just leave me a comment :)

DIY iPhone Covers!

Hello lovlies! My sister sent me the coolest idea! Its a DIY iPhone cover! Sounds awesome right?! Well all you need is a clear case & some cure paper, like scrapbook paper. You trace the outline of your phone including the camera whole & you just stick it in your clear case & there ya go! A one of a kind, custom iPhone case! My best friend just got her iPhone & when I told her about this she was just beyond thrilled! Than she came up with an additional idea! Why not use other things besides paper? Her idea was to take a Juicy Couture bag & use that as the paper! (We are HUGE Juicy fans!) So it doesn't have to be paper, it can be anything you find cute!

I will post picture when I finish my creation. Are you going to try this DIY project? Send me pictures in the comments of your new covers :)
