We have some time before we say goodbye....

I'm soooo sorry if my posts have been crazy, irregular and all that! I have been super busy with homework and school has been crazy as well. College has been some what boring I have to admit since   I'm taking Math and Psycology at the moment, later on I'll take English. 
But I didn't think it would be this stressfull! Not that the work is hard or that there's a lot of hw but because I'm no use to the deadlines. I have a quiz every time I go to Math and every week for Psycology. So it takes some getting use to since I came from homeschool (and had no need for deadlines)
Well I hope you guys like my Outfits of the week video! I tried to add some more cute pieces this time around to not get so boring with the same kind of clothes. I only had three outfits this week so bare with me as I show you the details :)

Vintage Circus Series: The Pretty Clown

I will admit it, clowns are creepy and not cute at all. I don't like their face paint or their purpose. But I found this amazing, beautiful picture of a girl who potrayed a "pretty" clown. I got super inspired to do a make up tutorial using face paints to copy her look. Since I'm doing this circus party I decided to also make tutorials on costume make up ideas to help out anyone who might want to try it out in the future.
Okay I will also admit that the face paint that I bought was pretty cheap in quality therefore it was not very opaque at all. Sad about that but on the up side it looks nice in pictures!! If you do decide to go as a clown go ahead and buy the real face paint for clowns. 






*I prefer the Cirque de Soliel face make up :) Beautiful art!

Vintage Circus: Cotton candy

Hey guys!! here's another video from my circus series! I hope you guys like it and find it useful/helpful.  It was such a fun experience to put this circus together and I would love to do it again! 

Cotton candy from papajohnspeanuts


It was really good and my favorite was the blue cotton candy! 
Everyone loved it and took home! It was such a unique and special little touch to the circus! It really made the circus theme come to life and pulled everything together, just like the popcorn, posters ect.

Can't wait to show you guys my photos!

Outfits of the week 5 and College Outfits!

Hey everyone! This is the last OOTW I am doing for my August Challenge! As we can see we're already in September! Wow! I seriously can't believe it. So much has happened in the last nine months and the year is almost up!! I'll take the time now to tell you what's been going on in my life.
If you see my video you'll notice my first week of college is already over and it was pretty good. I don't know anyone in my classes but I expected that. My classes aren't too much fun lol I have Math in the morning and Psychology in the late afternoon. In October I will start having English classes in the early afternoon and I hope that one is interesting (mostly b.c of my love for writing!)
Classes are chill but at the same time at a high paced level. You seriously need to be paying attention and taking good notes. I also noticed that even though there are some people who don't dress up there are a lot of people who do!! (Guys included!) That was good to see. 
Well it's labor day weekend so we had a long weekend and that was fun to just relax.
I hope you guys liked my outfits! I tried to incorporate some different summer looks before Fall begins!
