Collars Necklaces!

Collars are a great replacement for necklaces, they're fashionable and trendy. They're really easy to make and affordable, too. 
I went through my closet and found a lot of old shirts, I passed by a crafts store bought a couple of supplies and used some of my old accessories.

You'll need: Fabric glue, scissors, a selection of accessories, and some white thread and a needle if needed.

I picked up 5 shirts of my own, and cut off the collars.






 I sewed this on a white shirt without cutting off the shirt because I thought it'd look better.

 This was inspired by a shirt that I've been wanting but I couldn't get it.

 I use bendable silver studs on this, they're really easy to use. You just poke the studs into the color then press it.

 It is optional to you where you want to replace it.

 This looks very vintage and edgy, I absloutely love it!

 I went crazy on this one and used big pearls.

 I replaced them all around the collar. P.S the fabric glue dries clear.

 I love how vintage it looks.

 This one I will probably use a lot because it's black and white, and matches almost everything.


 This one would really look good on a red sweater!



 It's going to be fun to match this one to different outfits.

 I really love this red wine color, it matches a lot of patterns.


Be as creative as you can be, you can go crazy with this or go simple. It is really fun to do this, and I hope you find it helpful! xoxo

Urban Decay NAKED2 Review.

Hello everyone.
I'm doing a little reviw on a new eyeshadow pallet that came out by Urban Decay and it's called "NAKED2", I purchased it really soon and it's pretty awesome! 
They came out with the first one last year and it was very successful, so they came out with another one this year. The eyeshadows are very pigmented & natural.
The difference between both is that the colors are completely different except for one color.
I recommend it, the first & the second one.
They're a bit similar but they're worth buying.


As you can see the packaging is different, better actually. It comes with a lip gloss and a brush.





One of the brush's side which is a blending brush.


The other side which is an eyeshadow brush.


 Lip junkie lip gloss in Naked.

I hope you find this helpful.

Pokemon: Pikachu Nails

Hello everyone! 
Today I recreated a very adorable Pikachu nail art design. Very easy to create and extremely CUTE!




Strat by painting all of your nails yellow.

 Create 2 big black dots on your ring & index fingers using the back of a make up brush.

 Create 2 big red dots on your pinky & thumb also using the back of a make up brush. Then finish out the eyes with 2 smaller white dots using a bobby pin.

Create a tiny upside down triangle on your middle finger using a thin art brush for pikachu's nose.

 This is how it should look like.

 Use a very thin art brush, dip into a black polish and try to create Pikachu's zig zag mouth.

This is how it should look like when you're done I really hope you enjoy it. ^.^

Lana Del Rey "Born To Die" Inspired Nail Art.


Hello everyone! 
Today I'm showing you how to do this beautiful Lana Del Rey inspired nail art design from her music video "Born To Die". Very trendy & chic! 





Create a triangle shap on your nail using tape. Apply the nude color all over your nail.

Once the polish is dry, lightly remove the tape. This is how it'll look like when the tape is removed.

 Apply the red polish on the part of your nail that has no polish.

 Use a thin art brush and apply two lines of the gold polish just like how it's show on the picture. Wait for it to dry a bit, repeat the process on all of your nails, and finish it up with a top coat for a glossy look!


 This is the finished look, I really hope you enjoy it!

Sailor Inspired Nail Art Design

 Hello everyone!
Today I'm going to show you how to do this easy, fun, & cute sailor inspired desing with a some nautical design, too.



Start by applying the dark blue nail polish all over your nails except for one nail.
Use a bobby pin, dip into the white polish and create a large dot on the tip of your nail.

Draw a straight line coming out of the dot using a thin art brush .

Draw 2 curved lines on the end of the line we drew perviously.

This is how it should look like after drawing both lines.

Draw a thin line in the middle of the line that's coming out of the dot.

Using a bobby pin, dip into the dark blue polish we painted our nails with and create a small dot on top of the large white dot.

Paint any of your nails white.

Start drawing horizontal lines.


This is the finished look! I hope you like it. xx

2012 Hottest Trends!

Hello everyone!
Happy new year, I hope you all have a wonderful year.
I've done a little research looking for 2012 trends. There are a lot of trends but these are the most trendy ones!

Sweet Pleats


Girly and flattering pleats on dresses & skirts. (whether on maxis or minis)

Little Red Dresses


The new black for 2012. Seen a lot on runways.

Embellished Sweatshirts


Intresting casual trend. Quick tip: Make sure the sweatshirt has some inetresting graphics, crystals, or detailing so it doesn't look trashy.

Maxi Skirts & Button-Downs


A crisp white button-down is all that needed to take the look from relaxed to classy.

Natutical Stripes


The natutical trend was huge during 2011, and it isn't going anywhere in 2012.

Lemony Yellow


Awesome color for summer!

One Shoulder Dresses


Always elegant, rocked the runways for fall and winter 2012!

Green Leather


A trend that will be spotted on a lot of Hollywood fashionistas.

Multilengeth Skirts


Shorter in the front, longer in the back, very flattering with heels!

Animal Print Leggings


Easy to dress up or down.

Sheer Skirts


My favorite trend so far. Very elegant & classy with a fres look.

Bright Tights 


Black, brown, and gray are no longer your only options when it comes to tights. Adding a pop of color to your outfit started to show on runways and stores.

At last, the most important thing is to turn these trends into your own style. You also don't have to follow the trends that you don't like. The main idea is to be stylish on your own unique way.

I hope you enjoy this! xoxo
