Thrift Store finds

Happy Saturday guys! Today i just wanted to share a little thrift store find that i picked up the other day. They are these wedged heels from Forever21 ,which originally retail for about $24.00.  I found them for $6.99 they were gently used and had  a few stains on them that i got out with apple cider vinegar, water, and little dish detergent. When thrift shopping try and go when you don't have anything else to do so that you are able to really take your time because you can find some really nice pieces. Like these shoes! they look practically new and the best part I saved money of course!

Happy Thrifting and Good Luck

Edgey Denim

Denim has become my new love/obsession this year. You cant go anywhere without seeing highwaisted denim shorts and vests. I've looked online and seen them sold for like 50 bucks but of course me being the penny pinching college student that I am I decided to make my own. I got a pair of men's jeans from the thrift store for about 3 bucks (Size 29x30) and went to town with a pair of scissors. Of course you can watch Youtube to figure out how to correctly cut them but I just eyed them (Probably not the best idea). Next on my list of things I love this year are cropped fringed shirts. I think its really cool to use a printed tee with your favorite celebrity or music artisit. (I used Marilyn Monroe) Shirts like this are probably best worn when you want to go for a edgier night time look. Finally add a bold red lip and you're ready to go! Remember your personal style is your chance to express yourself and be creative so have fun and happy styling!

Spring Make up Tutorial

                                                                       

The best thing about spring makeup is being able to play  around with fresh vibrant colors. I like to start with a freshly washed faced and my favorite moisturizer. Next I apply my liquid foundation and concealer, followed by my eye shadow primer and the eye shadows of my choice. I usually go for a more gold or bronze look but for spring I like to use browns and light maroon and pinks. After mascara and eyeliner have been apply i lightly dust my cheeks with my blush. To give this look more jazz I finish off with my Victoria's secret lipstick in the shade intensity.
                                                                     

Victoria's Secert Lipstick in Intensity $15 (featured in the picture above)
