CHANNELING MY INNER MARILYN MONROE.

hey guys! I was sitting around, listening to Modest Mouse, when I had the strange wave of sudden nostalgia for all things vintage. I know, totally weird right? Anyways, I was inspired, so I grabbed my various makeup things and set to work. I came up with a classic look inspired by Marilyn herself :) Obviously, I don't have the platinum blonde hair and huge lips to cater, but what do you think? I absolutely love the makeup in the 50's and 60's, especially the bold red lips. There is something so timeless and utterly classic about this look :)

P.S. Please ignore that annoying red dot on my face. I may or may not have ran into a car door.

TAYLOR SWIFT'S NEW MUSIC VIDEO!

hey guys! So, Taylor Swift made a music video for her song I Knew You Were Trouble. And lemme tell you, it is VERY different from everything else she has ever done. It has more....depth. I kinda like it :) It shows me she is capable of something more than the super upbeat good girl thing. Anyways, I can already tell that it is going to get a lot of hate....but I like it at least. Tell me what you think!

MY CURRENT OBSESSION: POLYVORE.

Hey guys! It's Wednesday, and while I should be studying for exams.....I've been doing something else *insert abashed smile*. Lately, I  have been obsessed with Polyvore! If you don't know what it is, its basically a fashion/beauty collage-ing site! You make your own crazy mash-up and then you can publish it for others to see :) Also, if you really like something you see, it shows you on the side where you can get everything! MONUMENTALLY AMAZING! haha, anyways, yeah, it' surprisingly fun, so I thought I would just share that with you guys. Below are the ones I've made so far.

TUTORIAL ANYONE?

Hey guys! I'm sorry...I know...I have no excuse for not posting. Life is getting in the way of life if you know what I'm sayin' ? Probably not. LOL :P  Anyways, this is one of my favorite looks when I want to do something fancy. I love the edginess of it, especially with the color pop on my lower lashline. Would any of y'all be interested in a tutorial? Comment below!
