OOTD: August 16, 2013

Hello my beauts it's been a very, very long week for me and I'm so happy it's Fashion Film Friday! 

School started this week as you all know. I'm taking four classes at the moment. Let me tell you, they are not easy! I know its only the first week but I'm feeling a little dizzy from everything. I have class every single day (which is a new thing for me especially since I've been on vacation for the past 3 and a half months!). I'm taking Creative Writing, French, College Algebra, and later on in the semester I'll start Humanities. Some of these courses aren't too bad. Creative writing is obviously my favorite (for now since I have no idea what else my prof will make us do). French is one of the harder ones because it's a new language but I love french so I'm trying my best. Math on the other hand is hard and I don't like numbers so it's not interesting at all. But it's something I have to do so I'll be tredding on. Hopefully I get into the swing of things soon. I know many started last week but I just wanna say, congrats! We did it! We made it through the first week. Time to celebrate with a short video on the outfit I wore for my BTS: What's in my school bag video. 

What I Wore:

Top: Nordstrom Rack

Jeans: Levis

Shoes: Nordstrom Rack

Nails: Post here

Bag: H&M

NOTW: Butler Please

Hello beauts! It's #ManicureMonday and I have special nails to show you guys. You know why?

Because it's the first day of school and I'm back in college for the fall semester. I wanted to do a bright color that was still in the summer category. I have found that perfect color! This cobolt blue called Butler Please by Essie (my favorite brand of nail polish). It's ultra rich in color but unfortunetly it dries matte which is not to my liking. I added a coat of my favorite top coat, Seche Vite. If you guys haven't tried it you must go and buy it now! First time I ever heard about it was when Julia, from Misschievous, mentioned it in one of her really old videos. I absolutely love her and she's the one who got me into make-up. 

Seche Vite might be a little bit on the expensive side but I highly recommend it as it does it's job much better than most top coats. But, there is a down side to Butler Please.... I ave noticed that it chips super easily. More than most nail polishes. Now, I don't know if this is just because my nails are long and are more prone to getting hit by things but this usually doesn't happen so I'm pretty upset about that. But, I can't complain, it lasted long enough for my first day. 

For those of you going to school today good luck and have a great day and week!

Get these polishes here on Amazon! Plus, I believe this color is perfect with the
glitter polish Set in Stone by Essie

Back to school: clothing haul

Hello my beautiful fashionistas! It's #FashionFilmFriday and I've got a long awaited video post for you guys. Schools right around the corner and I wanted to show you guys what I got for the new year. It's been such a hot summer that I have no doubt the weather will continue to be this hot throughout my Fall semester. So I opted to buy some cute, chiffon tanks in light colors.
But I was also in desperate need for some new skinny jeans as mine are more than five years old! Both of the skinny jeans I got are from Levi's because I find their brand to be a perfect fit for me! I also got a pair of Converse in their new vintage style. I hope you guys like my new video as I discuss some of my tips for the school year whether you're in middleschool, highschool, or college!
This is my first video in my Back To School Series!
Enjoy and let me know which item you like the best!

Back to School: Fashion Essentials

Now that you guys have seen my college fashion haul I'm gonna share with you guys my school essentials fashion wise! These are a few of the things I find important to have for college.

1. Toms have been a savior for those days that my feet are just killing me and I have to be walking around all day. Something about the cushion inside of them makes it so comfortable! Plus theyre super cute in many different colors!

2. Printed cardigans keep you warms in the buildings and make your outfit stan out from all those basic tees out there. Now that Fall is coming up I hope to be wearing more of my printed cardi's!

3. Lipstick is a major essential! I have a few go-to lipsticks that just make my face look more alive and bright in the morning! You don't need a lot of makeup just some bright lipstick!

4. Sunglasses for those early morning classes when you're still half asleep and the sun is beating down on you while you walk to your next class or to your car. I always carry these with me since they are so cute!!

Hope you enjoy the video!!

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!

Back To School Series: Supplies Haul

Supplies is a favorite of mine cause I love to write and I love writing with good pens!! That 'good pen' feeling is so awesome that it makes you want to write more! Since I'm going to college I have to wait till the first day of class to see what other extra supplies I need. But for now I got the basics and here's a video! I hope you like it!

What are your basic must haves?

Back To School: Preview!
