Style Fail and weekly Hairstyle Dec. 2011

Hey everyone, It seems that I haven't done one of these for a veeerrrry long time. But everyone seemed to love these so lets get started with the red carpet fails first!
This picture is of Nicki Minaj at I believe the grammy's because thats what it says on the step and repeat behind her. Ok this is a total disaster. So lets get things straight. I love leopard print, you love leopard print, everyone loves leopard print, but there's a point to where you become so obsessed with it that you must take every item of clothing you own thats leopard and wear it all at the same time. This my friend is a special condition now called the nickieoparditus.  Pronounced Nick-E-ep-or-i-tus. Its a serious condition found in all Nicki Minaj's. :) Just kidding, I love Nicki, but this is a complete terrifying experience.
This is Sarah Jessica Parker...somewhere :) I don't know for sure, but it looks like someone took a lace bra, some nude tulle and a plaid kilt, ran it over and threw it on SJP, please, the picture speaks for itself. save plaid for the 70's.
And now for the wonderful weekly hairstyle!(s)
Jennifer  Lopez! I absolutely love her hair in this picture. a nice straight straight strand and then a nice wavy curl at the bottom looks lovely with her face shape not to mention the beautiful honey chestnut with highlights that flatter her skin tone. Then to kick it off, the white to make her olive tones stand out.  This is an example of a well balanced yet beautiful look. The makeup is simple with nothing bold because the hair does the talking :) I love love love this and I can't wait to rock it for 2011! Happy new year if I don't get my next post up!

Prom 2012! Glitter, Sparkle, Tulle!

Prom 2012! Glitter, Sparkle, Tulle!

Prom 2012! Glitter, Sparkle, Tulle! by nerdglasses22 featuring party dresses


With prom coming right around the corner, and sparkle being the biggest hit of fall/winter 2011 we all know that it's going to be the star of 2012 prom too! A few of the biggest problems for prom is getting everything at a good price, finding a hot date, and looking gorgeous. But there's always a point of Promzilla where you definitely do NOT want to stress about your price, guy, and beautifulness.  Here is a list of good dress stores for prom dresses or just formal dance dresses
www.promgirl.com , www.debshops.com , www.windsorstore.com , www.jcpenney.com , www.forever21.com , www.macys.com , www.delias.com , www.charlotterusse.com and there are plenty more sites but these are the most popular. That gets one thing out of the way. But also just remember, if you see a dress that you really like and you have enough money for it but you think, aww I wanted to save up for...blah blah blah...just think to yourself, I only get prom TWO times my entire life, there's no going back to the past. It's alright to splurge on a prom dress because this is going to be a huge night to remember.
Next topic is a hot date. If you have a boyfriend then you should totally go with him, if you have a crush, don't be afraid to ask him, the worst he could say is no. Which would totally suck, trust me I have been rejected before and it hurts but if you just move on and go with friends it will be so much better than sitting at home crying and wasting the money you spent on your expensive prom dress. Going with friends is a no fail also, that way you don't have to be nervous about coordinating colors, finding a resturaunt he likes, and just being ancy and nervous in general. With friends, fun comes naturally and if it doesn't, then maybe they're not good friends haha.
Next topic which is my favorite is the hair and makeup. DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT! go get your hair and makeup done if you are on a budget, save your money for a dress. I'm sure you have a curling iron at home, just watch some youtube videos like macbarbie07 juicystar07 allthatglitters21 missglamorazzi and there are so many more, actually i also have a youtube channel it is iloveprettyhair and I have a few video's up so far. I'd love it if you'd check it out but. back to subject. Getting your makeup done professionally is extremely expensive it can cost from 30$ to 100$ some dresses don't even cost that much! Plus if you do your own makeup, it resembles what your style is, unlike some random person that might not even know you and has no idea you like....rock and roll so they give you pink eye shaddow or they may not know that your dress is green so they make your eyeshaddow purple! That would be embarrassing which actually it would look cute but anyways, its all about being you and staying true to yourself when it comes to the hair and makeup process. Most likely if a guy asked you to prom, it's because he thinks your pretty, so he probably likes the way you do your makeup when your most around him. Do you get what I'm saying, like if you wear black eyeliner, mascara and pink lips to school every day and then a guy asked you out, maybe its that makeup that looks pretty on you, your everyday makeup. So get out there, and have a BLAST!

I got my first high end makeup product!

              Well, actually its a package of high end products, but I got the Benefit "the big ten" set that includes 10 of their most popular products. Its only a mini of each thing though but it was only 32$ at my local sephora so i was really excited! The downside is that I have to wait to open it until Christmas because this year I got to buy almost all of my Christmas presents this year from my parents and then they said they'd get me some surprise ones too but I got a whole bunch of great stuff! (Haul anyone?) my haul will probably be my next post but it wont be until after Christmas because I have a ton going on right now, plus I don't want to do a haul and then do another one right afterward with the other products that I get from other family members so I probably wont post the haul until around the 28th or so because I'm having family Christmas on the 26th :) I also did a new nail polish design and I'll insert that pic now :)
Panda nails! Love! Comment and tell me what your going to get for christmas if you already know! also tell me what's on your nails right now? post a pic on my facebook!
xoxo shenae! Merry christmas

New Obsessions!

Hey guys! Long time no blog :( This post might seem like a "Favorites" post but it's sort of different but I really wanted to tell you about one thing, but then I thought of  million so here goes.
1.) My first obsession is with Delia's aka dELiAs I think that's how the spell it on the site. It's a clothing/accessory/room decor/shoe store. Your basic girl heaven. I was on there because, I'm not gonna lie, I have huge feet. Size 12 but I can wear size 11 so I was looking for cute shoes! OMG they have sizes 5-11 with the extended 11-12 size! The only prob is that there's limited selection for big foot's. However I'm completely fine with cramming my gondola's into some super cute and worth it shoes. Plus the price is astounding!
2.) My second obsession ties in with my first obsession. I've really wanted some toms for some time now. If you don't know what Toms are they are cute flats that are made of fabric and are really cute. With every pair you buy, a pair goes to a child in need which I would totally love to help, but at $54 (us currency) I don't think that its worth it. I mean of course helping kids get shoes is worth it but the shoes its self is kinda a waste. But if your not into $54 dollars a pair like I'm not. Then check out these
http://store.delias.com/item.do?itemID=55119&categoryID=442
They're called espadrille flats and they come in some really cute colors and designs. There were two brands of the espadrilles on Delia's.com there was the ones I showed you with the patterns and there were some that were glittery or they had just pink or yellow or plain colors. So many to choose from, here's the link to the other brand on Delia's
http://store.delias.com/item.do?itemID=55108&green=BBF73DA2-ABB2-5F34-B7D2-83F6A68FB5B0&incmpid=MBRecm
These are super cute too. I'm thinking about saving up money and buying two pairs (Yellow or pink and maybe the Aztec print ones?) not sure yet though. You can buy two pairs of these for the same price or less of the actual TOMS which I feel bad about saying they're expensive because its helping people but come on! You see my point though. Most people don't even care about the "shoes for kids" thing and just get them anyways, I bet they wished they had seen these on Delias.com
3.) My next obsessions are Value Sets at Ulta and Sephora. I've been hearing about gift sets from Allthatglitters21 and her Holiday Gift Guide video and I decided I should check them out. I looked at sephora and saw that they have some Benefit Value Sets for $26 that includes

  • Girl Meets Pearl
  • High Beam
  • Pose-tint
  • Erase Paste

Usually just the erase paste is $26 dollars but here's a whole bunch of items for way less that what you'd originally pay! They also have a fragrance mini set there too, for $50 dollars you get 12 mini fragrances to try and then when you've picked your favorite you take a certificate from the box and receive one full size perfume! And you get to keep the minis!

4.) My fourth obsession is definitely the Cookie Dough Luna Bar. It's 12 grams of protein and they're super yummy.
http://lunabar.com/products/protein/cookie_dough/

5.) T-shirt Tuesday! T shirt Tuesday is a when...you...wear...a T-shirt on Tuesday! I'm the kind of girl who likes to always dress up, and so even though I own a crap ton of T-shirts, I never really put good use to them so they got old and dusty, jk. So I decided I would follow what Missglamorazzi on YouTube does and start a tradition of wearing a t-shirt every Tuesday from now on. That way I don't feel like I paid all that money on --yes, we all knew the trend--Branded T-shirts and never get a good wear for the buy. I also do Sweatshirt Thursday where I obviously wear a sweatshirt on Thursday but I don't own very many sweatshirts. Like the actual Graphic Sweatshirt that says something like Aero on it or has a cute saying and I can't find them online, it's kinda sad actually. Either way, my mission is for someone to help me find one so I can buy some more and wear them on Thursday.
6.) Curled hair. but the trick is to pin it up to your head with a bobby pin after normal curling. It not only makes it bouncier but gives it more volume and makes it a prettier spiral. You can watch a Macbarbie07 video on YouTube and I'm pretty sure she does it nicely.
Those were my obsessions lately. Have a merry Christmas if I don't talk soon which I will because I'm working on a Holiday Gift post. Shhhshhhhh. ;) xoxo shenae.
