Where's my roller skates and drink with an umbrella in it? (Spring break looks 2!)

Here's my second spring break look! I hope you're all enjoying your spring breaks! I'm spending mine working 50 hours this week! ;) I chose this look because it's super cheap and simple for when you're running out the door to the beach or to wherever! Also I curled my ponytail and add some texture, and you can't tell by the pictures, but i put some purple hair chalk in to make this look even more fun! 

Sunglasses : Birthday present from Sophi ♡
Earrings, Crop Top, Bodycon, and Chambray : Forever 21 
Gladiators: American Eagle




The great part is the dress was literally only $5, and everything else was under $15. (except the shoes but we're not going to talk about those)

This was the hair chalk I used and it's only $5 at WalMart! You can see the other colors it comes in on the side of the box. As messy as it gets, it actually works. I wouldn't recommend putting it on AFTER you curl your hair, but overall I think it works really well for $5! The color is clear and noticeable it stuck okay. For $5 i say go for it! I'm hoping to chose more spring break looks this week! See ya laters cuties ♡

Sprang brake lewkz

ARE Y'ALL READY FOR SPRANG BRAAAAKE???? I would be too but i work everyday oops. Anyways, this is kind of a later gram ootd (am i allowed to say instagram terms outside of instagram?) But I wanted to get excited about spring break through my outfits, even if I can't fully enjoy it! Even though this outfit is kind of dark, I loved the cute daises and and the cut of this onesie, bringing out the spring-time look. I paired with the summer-y white converse and the snapback, brought together with the military jacket. I also think hoop earrings are super fun and bring a fun flare to any outfit. 

Hat and skirt : PacSun
Onesie, military jacket, sunglasses : Forever 21
Converse : Journeys 



ALSO I DID FUN THINGS TO MY HAIR AND I'M SO HAPPY 


My jacket and purse are from Forever 21 :)


I ombréd my hair at my house with L'oreal's wild ombré kit! 



I thought this kit was really easy to use and straightforward and did a really awesome job. I loved the results and was way cheaper than getting it professionally done. I didn't do too much of my hair because i still love my red hair so much. I'm hoping to post better pictures of my hair soon, and hopefully I'll have more fun spring break looks! Ciao my loves!

Prom, Surfing, Fashion Shows, And Even More Selfies

Hello one and all! I'm still working two jobs and i'm busy all the time, but a lot of cool stuff has happened in the past two weeks! 

First, my little Ela went to prom and I did her hair and makeup! I got to use my little milkmaid braids on her and they looked awesome! I also used a classic and old school look for her makeup and she looked stunning. She wore a vintage, red velvet dress, with her black pointed heels, and super classy chandelier earrings. She definitely stole the show (or at least i assume so because I didn't actually go to her prom.) Anyway, here are some insanely cute pictures of her. 




Secondly, I sewed up a pair of surf shorts for my friend Shelby for her to wear while she Paddle boards! She is a sponsored Paddle Boarder and is trying to start her own line of these little shorts. We collaborated ideas and came out with these shorts! What a little cutie. 



Third, being apart of the Fashion Technology program at UHMC has given me so many opportunities, including being an amateur make up artist! Ivori is one of the designers for the IMUA Fantastia Ball, and this is Nikki, her model! Ivori was inspired by this look! 

(Kind of bad resolution but I couldn't find a better one) 

and this is this is what I re-created! 


 ( I am SO jealous of her big luscious lips!!)


And last but not least, here was my ootd for today!

Sweater, onesie, and pants are all from Forever 21 (as always)


I'm on location at my sister's bed room because we were too lazy to walk downstairs to take pictures outside. 


I'm still really into this boho chic revival because it gives me an excuse to wear flow-y, comfy clothes all the time. I paired the relaxed sweater and pants with the leopard onesie to spice up this look. Also i bought the most GORGEOUS lip stain, and i wanted to match it. 

I used revlon's colorstay lip stain "rendevouz" and it's pretty perfect for $8 at the drugstore. 
(It's the bright orange one)

I also invested in replacing my makeup brushes, because i have had the same ones for way too long and they were shedding all over my face and i hated it. But all my makeup went on flawlessly today because all my tools were so fresh and clean, making the lip color look absolutely fabulous. If you're like me and have an obsession with lipstick, I highly recommend buying some of these because they go on so easy and are so cheap and look fantastic. Also I know some people are afraid of trying out these weird colors, but they're so perfect for summer and it spices up any outfit!!

(and here are more selfies and i'm still not sorry)


SHOUT OUT TO MY PERFECT EYELINER  


I'm going to try and post way more often and keep committed!! See all you lil cuties later. ♡

Summertime Exhaustion.

Aloha one and all! Working two jobs and going to school is absolutely draining, but definitely (i'm hoping anyway) will be worth it in the long run. I just wanted to share a little Outfit Of The Day for you all after working both jobs in a row!


Romper, Sweater, Belt - Forever 21
Hat - Wet Seal
Shoes - American Eagle 
Watch- Guess

This is my very first romper, which i'm so stoked about because usually i'm way too tall for all of them and/or my hips are too big. This look is super fun, breezy, and great for a day out in the hot hot sun. I also absolutely adore this little pom pom trimming on a lot of clothing now! For example, clothes like these! 




I think this pom pom trimming is fun and a little something different in the sea of florals for spring time. And now, an obligatory Devil Wears Prada quote 

Ciao beauties!

I'm baaaaaaack! and more swedish?

Hi everyone! I'm so happy that I finally have an outfit to blog about!! This week I've been inspired by Holland Roden's hair in this past week's episode of Teen Wolf, Letharia Vulpina. (Also, omfg TEEN WOLF IS BEYOND CRAZY I ABSOLUTELY C A N N O T)

LOOK AT THESE CUTIES 

So I tried her hairstyle out! 


Dress and belt are from Forever 21
Shoes are from American Eagle

This hairstyle is crazy easy and super cute for any time of day! I also love how this dress meshes so well with this hairstyle. 
Until next time, ciao beauties!

Fighting Sexual Harassment While Still Looking Fly as Hell

Hello one and all! Today I was really inspired by this picture:


Well, mainly just her makeup, even though the rest of this lady is so cute I think I might pass out. (I found this image off of tumblr but I couldn't find the original source or who this girl is!)

So from this, I just knew I MUST own a tube of black lipstick because being a lipstick hoarder, it seemed silly that I didn't own a tube. I went to MAC, knowing they had their "Punk Couture" line, with black lipstick included (LOOK HOW GORGEOUS THESE LIPSTICKS ARE I CAN'T EVEN UGH)

But alas, they were all sold out in like one second they were put out. I was so discouraged because Halloween is a million years away, so I thought there was no way I couldn't get a tube without ordering online, and ordering online to Hawaii sometimes isn't even worth it with the shipping! BUUUT, I went into longs today and found a NYX black lipliner for like $4! (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) So I present to you, 

Stepford Wives meets 90s grunge meets alien princess.

Dress and bag are from Forever 21. Shoes are from Macys. 

LOOK AT HOW COOL THIS LIPSTICK IS

I decided to mesh two opposite looks together to create a cohesive look! I went really light on the rest of my makeup just because my lips were crazy dark and the focus of this look. I also went really girly with the sunflower dress and the curly hair, but added my black combat boots to give the edgy feel to go along with the lipstick. I'm so excited about this lipstick (well really lipliner but whatever) and this dress! 

Okay, to explain my title, I was at work today and this older gentlemen, while buying underwear for his  valentine, asked if my lipstick tasted like licorice. Already really uncomfortable, I sternly said no. He then proceeded to tell me he wish it did and was having a little daydream about it. I then looked him straight in the eye and said, "that was really inappropriate." He then became extremely uncomfortable and angry and stormed out with this purchases. The fact that he got angry because I called him out on his inappropriate behavior shows how stupid the way society works. Women shouldn't have to laugh and go along with unwanted male comments. In conclusion, if some creep comes up to you at the bus stop and says, "smile for me baby" or some guy behind you in the grocery line gets too close for comfort and makes an inappropriate comment about your breasts, tell them to literally shove it up so far that they pass out. ~dismantling the patriarchy one sassy hair flip at a time~

Ciao my lovely beauties! Until next time!

Keep Ya Head Up

Hi! I've missed this so much! Working two jobs and going to school is always handful, plus it's been down pouring this week so there hasn't been a good time or place to take pictures. Also when you have an 8:30am class, you kind of just roll out of bed at 8 and leave ten minutes later.

This week I've been inspired by Forever 21's Hip Hop graphic tee line. They have had so many cute shirts and I'm trying really hard not to buy all of them!

(All images are from Forever21.com) 

So from these totally awesome tees, comes this outfit!



Shirt, skirt, sunglasses, and shoes are from Forever 21.
(Talk about some great alliteration).
(Also, thanks to my mom for taking these photos. heehee). 

I love being comfy but also able to feel cute and confident when going to school to one job to another. Also, I'm so in love with with retro cat eye trend with sunglasses! It's like the best of both worlds. 

The start your weekend right, here is my absolute favorite Tupac song, to reconnect with the classics and keep your views on women positive and in check. 

Ciao my little beauties!
