Trend Alert: Pastels-Clothing

  

Since pastels are something that play a huge part in the spring time, i thought i would do a little series on all things pastel! Pastel clothes, pastel shoes, pastel nail polish, pastel accesories, pastel everything! So, obviously, from the pictures above you can probably guess that this first post is going to be on pastel clothing. Lets get started..

Pastel clothing is something really easy to rock, but with certain things, it can get a little crazy looking and just be too much. The thing with pastels is that you have to be careful not to, mix clashing colors in a tacky way. But just like regular colors, color blocking can also be done and look totally amazing! When mixing colors though, it is important to go with colors that coordinate. Look at a color wheel to see exactly how you would go about this and get some ideas.

Mint green is one of my favorite pastels this year. In the pictures above, i have a picture that has mint green pastels.
Another one of my favorite pastels, are corals! I have recently been loving the way these colors look, with whites, or taupes and tans, for a very nice crisp and clean look. With the colors been pastels though, it is always super playful, fun, and just very spring-ish!

I have never been one to like the look of pairing like colors on top of one another no matter what the color, so some of my favorite way to wear pastels are:
-with whites, tans, and taupes, for a really chic, but fun and playful look. The are not clashing, and it can be dressed up or down fairly easy.
-with jeans or denim. This way is super cute and casual. Probably my most favorite of them all. This way it can be worn just about anywhere for just about any ocassion. What i really love about this way of styling is, the effotless look you can achieve this way. It doesnt look like you are trying too hard and you look super cute.
-The last way is color blocking pastels. This personally think this way is super cute, fun and playful looking. I love that it can be casul, but you can also dress this look up at the same time. If you style this the right way, i think it can be totally acceptable to be worn for a ton of events. Especially cute for the spring and summer time!

I hope you guys enjoyed this post. Leave me a comment below telling me what you think about this whole pastel trend going on, and what your favorite way to style them is & telling me your thoughts on this mini series? Also, leave me any suggestions you have in comments and i will talk to you guys in my next post! Adios (:

Haul: WetSeal

I have been on a crazy search within the past few months ! I have been searching for some khaki colored skinny jeans like crazy since forever now! ( is khaki even a color ? Oh well.)
I have been everywhere! Old Navy, Forever 21, Dillard's, and my mom even told me to go into The Gap cause she thought they would have them, and they did but, they weren't the exact color I wanted. They were more of a darker taupe color than a lighter tab khaki that I wanted! I was this close to getting them but I just refuse to pay $70 for jeans when I know I can find the ones that I really actually did want!
I am proud to announce that I can stop this searching madness . I have finally found the perfect khaki skinny jeans!
I went on a mini shopping spree yesterday and my sole purpose was to get these jeans, but while I was there I decided to get a few more items. So I thought I would show you all in this haul! Let's go!
P.S. these pictures are going to be at the end of this post because I'm posting off my phone! My laptop broke and its getting fixed and my mom and little brother are using both desktops ! Sorrrrry ! /:

So, the first thing I picked up was of course the khaki skinny jeans! I really like the way they fit and the color is perfect. The only thing is they don't have direct sizes like number wise. It goes xsmall, small, medium, large, and xlarge. But, I am absolutely in love with these and cannot wait to wear them! These were $24.50.

The next thing I picked up was this tank top. It he only reason I got this was because, if you have ever been to WetSeal then you know their Luke year round sale where if you get any thing from the sale or clearance racks then you can get the other item for 1¢. And my mom had picked up this pair of sandals so she was like you can get something if you want cause it'll be just a penny. (btw, that was the only thing in this haul that I did not purchase by myself! But just cause it counted as a sale with her item!) I didn't mind picking it up although I already have 2 in a bright hot pink and a turquoise blue, but these are perfect for summer! They are just something foley and cute I could throw on w/ some shorts.

The next 2 things I got are accessories . I picked up two pair of Ray Ban style sunglasses . The first pair I got are the Wayfarer style . I just got the black kind but they had like every single color you can think of! These are just something super cute and casual to wear during the summer. Also , I love how on the inside it's got a super cute floral design!
The next ones I picked up because right before we went to the store I was on the WetSeal app on my phone and I had seen the shades paired w/ this outfit. And I loved them. They are the Aviator style glasses, but what really made me want these was that the part that holds them up is chain link looking. I thought this was so unique and plus I had been looking for a cute but cheap pair of aviators and wayfarers anyway so that I take these to the beach and stuff like that and won't have to worry about replacing my real ones since they are pretty expensive! Also, I really like the tint these have. It's like a deep plum ombré tint! Super cute !

Well, that is the end of this haul. I know, it was super short. I didn't get a lot of stuff which is kinda surprising but I hope you guys enjoyed and I will talk to you in my next post ! Bye beauties(:

Update: Cheer, Hauls, Upcoming Posts, etc!

Soo, if you have noticed I have not posted anything all week. With that being said, main reason is cheer! If you didn't read my last blog i mentioned a little but about cheer. So, let's go into a little more detail..
Yes. I did have cheer tryouts all this week! I am finally letting cheer back in my life completely once again! It feels sooooo good! To fill you guys in. I did quit cheer about 3 years ago. I needed a break and it turned out to be way longer than intended ! But I have finally decided that I need it back in my life and im happy for myself. I am not gonna get into so much detail just cause I will be doing an entire post dedicated to cheer, and my experiences w/ it.
So, now let's talk about my week. So , Monday was when the tryouts started. Well, they aren't actually tryouts. So, lemme' rephrase that.. My cheer camp was this whole week after school. From 4:30 til' 6:30. And, let me tell you I am EXHAUSTED ! Like really . You do not know how tired I am when that's over with. And even when I leave the school from the camp, I come straight home and practice for about another hour to hour and a half! So, I don't get done with that til about 7:30pm or 8:00. Basically what this "cheer camp" is for those of you who don't know, it is basically just where you go after school if your trying out & the current cheerleaders are there along with the coaches and maybe some gymnasts are there to help you prepare for tryouts and just basically showing you what you need to be at least average on to make the team. So we learn or practice on our jumps, chants/cheers, dancing, positioning, stunts, and the projection of your voice. Luckily for me, I'm almost perfect at almost all of my jumps, cheering/chants voice and positions . Oh and my dancing! So almost everything except my stunting. Which would be like flips, round offs & cartwheels and such. I mean I am pretty decent at them but I really need to perfect them a lot more ! I'm so bent outta whack since I haven't been doing gymnastics in like a yeah and a half! /: crazy! Anyways, I have been doing this all week preparing for tomorrow; Saturday April 21st is the day of tryouts! So I am literally worn out! We only get like one 5-10 minute break, then back to working.
But on the bright side, the dance we are doing is super cute and fun! It's modern hip hop with some ballet and a dash of sass ! Lol, I absolutely love it! But the song we are dancing too is kinda fast pace so it is really tiring , lol. I really like the moves that go with our cheers too!
Tryouts are Saturday April 21st, which is tomorrow. And I have to be up no later than 6:30 am ! 6:30 in the morning! What?! Yes, an i have to be at the schools gym at 8:00am. Tryouts dont end until 6:00pm i think( i have to check again. Lol) I should actually be asleep right now cause its almost 12 am. -___- Haha, but I wanted to give you guys a quick update. The things I do for you guys! Smh. Lol, kidding(:
I am not sure when the next normal post will be up, I mean like obviously next week sometime but I mean I'm not sure if I will be able to post before Monday. So no guarantee that there will be one this weekend, although I will try but no promises because I don't know when I get back from tryouts cause all the high schools in my districts will be at the same place, so it's just 4 high schools but when we get there we each get numbers so no one knows what school is going first until we get there tomorrow. Hopefully mine will be like 1 or 2, cause after we go we can leave and then we just have to come back up there to see the people who made the team ( its gonna be posted on the gym doors) . But, the thing is I have to tryout TWICE, because I don't know which school I am going to yet since I am moving this summer so I am just trying out for either team so that way whatever school I go to I made it either way! So I will be super tired afterward and don't know if i will be up to post , so yeah. But I did go shopping today so if there is a post up tomorrow it will be a HAUL! Excited ? I am! (:
But yeah, I am going to sleep. Gotta early morning tomorrow so I will talk to you guys as soon as possible ! Bye !

*Oh and wish me luck guys ! Pray I make it (: Thanks so much for your patience !

TAG!: Confessions of a Shoe-A-Holic!

Hey lovelies!
So, in case you didnt know, i am an obsessive shoe maniac! Like, its crazy how much i love shoes! Ever since late February, early March, i have been searching like crazy for the perfect spring/summer time shoes. And, main my focus until just recently was a perfect Easter shoe. A shoe that was not to high, or to low. Something that i could not only for for real fancy occassions but also just thorughout the summer, but even after i found that, i have still been on the hunt for a few good pairs of cute, comfy, and stylish shoes . All styles and types. So, i have been looking online and in sotres.
I came across this tag a couple days ago and thought that this would be perfect timing for this. So, lets get started!

1. Heels or Flats?
neither, WEDGES! :D
Lol . Mmm.. depends. Heels if im not gonna be on my feet for more than half of the day or if they're comfy/platformed, Flats if im walking around a ton, or my outfit is casual. But i will where wedges no matter what since it can go dressy or casual!

2. What are your go-to shoes?
Mm, my pueter gladiators.

3. What's your favorite shoe trend at the moment?
Color blocking (or just bright bold colors in general)

4. What's your least favorite shoe trend?
Feathered shoes!! Like, shoes that have the feathers attatched, especially printed feathers! Omg, i can not stress how much i hate that! Cause there were these GORGEOUS pair of gladiators in BodyCentral that had different printed straps, like diff. animal print on each strap, but.. they had printed feathers! Like really? Ugh, i was so mad. Lol!

5. What's your most expensive shoe?
My Jordans? No, wait.. Lemme' check..
My Steve Maddens or my UGGs ? Cant remember but i think my Steve Maddens was like $60 more ?!

6. What are your most wanted pair?
Christian Louboutins! You know the imfamous sparkley ones that they have sooooo many dupes for? Yeah those. They're like more than $1,000 though /: Oh, and these pair of Steve Madden jeweled sandals, that i seen when i was on vacation!

7. What's your most embarrasing shoe story?
Uhhm i dont really have one!? Lol, i guess this'll count. Okay, so this one time when i was in elementary, like 2nd grade, it was picture day, and i had this cute little pink skirt and shirt on, with my, "Cinderrella glass slippers", as i called them, (lol dont judge, i was a little dork as a kid. haha, they were really glass like slippers though, just not a heel, but had a glass platformed bottom and it had gold accents and everything! ) Anyways, i would be walking through the school and all and i didnt trip, but like it was almost like falling. My ankle would always wobble to the side and stuff. Lol

8. Pick a shoe and share a story.
Uhm.. I'm not really sure of one ?!

9. How many pairs of shoes do you own ?
Waaaaay too many to count ! Lol

10. When was the first time you wore heels ?
Uhh.. Well I'm 15, so probably around anywhere between 11/13-13

11. How much do you spend on shoes ?
Well, I think shoes are apart of those very few items worth splurging on. I mean, if you've had about the same shoe size for a minute now, and your around my age give or take some years, then you can be able to wear those shoes for the longest time; but only if they are good quality! So I do not have a problem with splurging on a nice pair of shoes a few times! So, to answer the question it just all varies on the shoe type and quality and stuff like that. I take in account for a lot when shoe shopping !

12. Where are your favorite places to buy shoes?
Aldo, Steve Madden, Finish Line & Foot Locker (for my Jordan's and such), Journeys, etc. just to name a few.

13. Have you got a pair of shoes you regret purchasing ?
Sadly, yes . When I was younger, like 3rd or 4th grade, I was shoe shopping with my mom & I seen these amazing pair of wedges! They were just perfect cause they had a floral design, they were a pinky coral color and it was spring time! Can you say it was destiny ? Lol, anyways the heel wasn't that high either. But, to be honest , I actually only wore them like, I can count on ONE hand how many times I wore them. I still have them too, but of course I can no longer wear them!

14. Show your favorite pair of shoes .
I don't actually have a picture of them on had right at this moment, but I will have one up as soon as possible .
But, they are these Nike brand shoes that I had custom made by my moms best guy friend! I love them!


And, that was the last question. I hope you all enjoyed this tag. I will talk to you guys later in my next post! Have a great day! Bye (:

TAG, You're It: Top 5 Style Icons

Hey guys. So, I have been going TAG crazy lately & just have not had the time to actually do much. Like seriously, you guys should see my list of blog post I'm planning. Has a ton of tags! So, I thought this one would be short and simple but really fun at the same time! So you'll kinda get to learn a little bit more about me, in the fashion department and where a lot of my inspiration comes from!
So I'm gonna name the person, then say why I love them as my style icon. Oh and btw guys; no specific order just cause I can't choose who I love the most . Lol ;)
Let's get started !

1. Christina Milian; I absolutely love this girl! She is an amazing actress & has an out of this world fashion scence ! I love her style .
2. Kim Kardashian; okay. So, you can not tell me that her style is not amazing! I mean, I know she's very controversial but, even I know people that don't like anything to do with her, say that at least one of her outfits are gorgeous! I like her so that's a plus(:
3. Kimora Lee Simons; omg, I can not stress to you enough how much I look up to her. Like seriously, she is one of my biggest idols in the world. She is on the top of my list of people to meet! Okay. I know I said I wasn't going in order, but even though she's number 3 on this, she is really número uno ( I just don't feel like rearranging and restyling lol) but honestly, I could do an entire post on why I love Kimora, and why she is such a big inspiration to me but a lot about her will be in an upcoming post of mines, soo we will just end it at, she has an amazing style that I would kill for!
4. Raven Symoné; okay, so I have been obsessed with Raven since I was a little girl. Ever since her days on her Disney channel TV show That's So Raven, I have looked up to her! Her style was amazing on the show, and even today I still keep up with her as much as possible and her style is is bangin' at the top! I love her.
5. Jessica Jarrell & China Anne McClain ; okay, so I know I kinda cheated on this but I couldn't choose just one. So, even though China is younger than me, who says you can't look up to someone younger?! She just has a super beautiful style to go along with her sweet little personality (:
Jessica just has an amazing fashion taste all around. I follow her on instagram and she has the most beautiful clothing choices and everything. I get excited when I see another picture from her!

Nails of the Weekend

Okay guys. So, I'm back with, yes, another nail post! I'm sorry, but I've just really been into painting my nails a ton more than usual ! I mean, I almost always have something on my nails, but now I'm changing the colors and stuff like crazy. I think it's because I'm about to get back into cheer leading, & you cannot have any colored polish on your nails. It's a safely hazard violation cause you can get your pulse through your nails so if I was to pass out or have a serious injury and they can't get pulse any where else they have your nails.
So, since my tryouts are Monday, that makes this weekend my last to be able to wear colored polish. I mean, we can cause its just tryouts but they prefer you not to. And since I'm a reoccurring cheerleader they expect me to know this already and just not wear it. So I don't want that to be a strike against me so I'm just gonna do a clear polish since I have to have something on my nails! Lol.

Anyways, lets get into my polish. So at the beginning of this week, I put a post up of my gel nail manicure. You can go check that out if you have not already. But , I took that off yesterday right after I got home from school and repainted them. The pictures will be below!
I have been really into doing 2 colors lately, like main colors and accent colors. So, I chose to do a pink color palette . Both polishes are the brand Nicole by OPI Kardashian Kolors collection. I used Kim-Pleately In Live & All Kendalled Up. Kimpleately In Love is the main color, and All Kendalled Up is the accent. I really have been liking doing 2 accent nails so, on my thumb and ring finger I have All Kendalled Up which is like the perfect matte hot pink color! And the other 3 fingers I have Kimpleately In Love, which is a milky baby pink color with like seafoam green glitters.


Well, I hope you guys enjoyed this post. Do you have a nail trend that you've been loving lately? What about any specific nail polish that you think I should check out? Leave them in a comment below, and I will talk to you guys later. Bye beautiful(:
