GRWM: 30 Seconds to Mars Concert! Makeup + Hair

hey guys! I just wanted to update the blog and add one of my new videos! Now I will finally be able to talk about my experience at my first 30 Seconds To Mars concert!! Ahhh!! I am kinda bummed that I didn't film a clip of me talking about the concert and usually I do. I guess because that same night my mom and I drove up to meet my dad and sister at our vacation spot since we were going on vacation that same week. I must have gotten very flustered with how much I needed to do. I had just finished my last semester in college and was so busy transfering to my new University (more on that later) that filming an intro completly slipped my mind. Bare with me then! 

So I purchased VIP passes through a company called Adventures in Wonderland. Originally I believed that I was only going to have my picture taken, get a T shirt, and 30 STM would do a Questions and Answers portion. To my surprise we also got autographs, and stickers as well as fans with their heads on them (I only was able to get a Tomo head since the rest were completly gone when I finally found the booth! But that's alright, I love them all equally).

The experience was incredible! The three of them showed up and answered questions for almost twenty minutes. Then everyone got in line to get autographs (only 1 per person unfortunately which I think is silly. I had brought my cd cover anyway because you never know.) When I stood in front of them, everything was pretty much a blur. I introduced myself and They said hello. Shannon was so adorable telling me that his name was Shannon. I laughed and said, "Well, yes, of course I know that." As if he wasn't a rockstar haha! 

The three of them are super down to earth, funny, and sweet. BTW Jared's eyes are real people! They are so clear and blue! But don't worry Shannon I love your eyes as well! I love all three of you! 

Tell Tomo that he needs to take off his sunglasses next time. 

After when everyone got their autographs we all got in line to take our professional picture. It was such a dream to be able to touch them! There are many regrets like why I didn't ask for a hug or a selfie! Why Claudia! Why! 

I only hope that there is a next time so that I can try again and hopefully my best friend can come with me!. 

After they left and I waited for the concert to start. They are so incredbly talented. The performance was amazing, the vocals were on point (despite Jared saying he hadn't sung in weeks and this would be the first time. It was also the first stop on the tour so what an amazing thing to open the tour with us here in FL!)

Over all the experience was amazing and wonderful and I can't wait to do it again.

Here I will show you my hair and makeup for the concert but next week I will show you my outfit and all the outfits I wore on my vacation. Hope you guys enjoy it!

4 Easy + Fun Summer Hair Ideas!

Hello beautifuls! Today I want to show you guys some of my favorite ways to style my hair. My hair is about 5-6 inches below my shoulders so I consider it to be medium to long hair. Today I'll show you four easy and cute ways to style your hair. I hope you guys like it!

1. Messy Side Braid (regular 3-strand braid)

Pull hair to one side of the face. Begin to braid hair (fishtail, figure eight, 3/4/5 strand braids ect). 

Loosely pull braid until desired messiness is achieved. 

2. Faux Bob

Part hair into two sections and clip or pin ends of hair into roots. Do the same for the other side. 

And don't forget the hairspray!

                               

3. Low Pony Tail

Pull hair into the base of the neck and tie with elastic. This can be achieve with a slick back/wet hair look or a messy pony. Take a small strand of the pony tail and wrap around the elastic.

4. Faux Crown Braid 

Take your bangs (or side hair) and begin to twist into rest of hair. Pin or clip at desired area.

I think I will keep it to share with you guys what is inspiring me at the moment and also to share my experiences in life (if I ever have any lol). I hope you guys like this little change. Let me know what you think in the comments below!

THE GRAMMYS! 2014

Okay, Okay, Okay, this has to be hands down my favorite award show EVER! Not only is it because the house is filled with hundreds of amazing artists but because my favorite artists performed!! 

Fun. (or technically Nate Ruess) performed side-by-side with Pink and man, oh man, were they perfection! I am counting down the days when fun. has another concert tour!

He looked amazing in a burgundy suit, leather shoes, and his recently grown mustache! Never thought I'd say that but can we just stop for one second and appreciate the glory of this human being. Yes, take one moment to gaze upon holiness. 

GRWM: FUN. Concert Part 2

Hello again my beauties, it's Film Friday (and though technically it's Fashion Film Friday and I want to post Fashion related videos on Fridays, I'm making an exception). This video has been waiting to be uploaded for over a month already and I must not deny it any longer!! Today I will be showing you guys part 2 of my Get Ready With Me: FUN. Concert video. I did it in two parts because a) the video was too long for youtube and b) this video has nothing to do with make-up, hair, or fashion. Sorry! 

This video is more about my experience at the concert, the merchandise I bought, and some clips from the actual concert (and by clips I mean my fav parts and songs *here is where I smile uncontrollably and giggle at the sight and sound of Nate Ruess.... no judging he's perfection*).

I know for many it wont be your cup of tea, but if you watch it it would make me very happy! 

I just want to share this wonderful experience with you beautiful people. 

So sit back, get some popcorn, and enjoy this quick video on my experience at the fun. concert.

Enjoy and let me know what you think!

don't forget to watch in HD!

Get Ready With Me: FUN. Concert Part 1

Hello lovelies, today I have a special post and by the title you can tell exactly what I'm going to talk about! So without further a do, let's get started. I went to the fun. concert a few weeks with my best friend, sister, and mom. It was general admission so we chose the best spot we could (which happened to be right behind the handicap area to the right side of the stage). Sure I would have preferred front and center but *shrugs* what can you do. Either way our spot was such a good spot! We had a full view of everything that was happening and no tall people in front (since I'm super short so no offense to anyone who is tall!). If you don't know who fun is here's a little background.

Fun. is made up of three band mates: Nate Ruess, Andrew Dost, and Jack Antonoff.

They all came from three different bands and joined forces to form one amazing, American indie pop band. They originated in New York and have been together since 2009 and have two albums out so far. I'm absolutely in love with Nate, and the fact that he was born in February (my month as well) makes him even more attractive. Ugh, plus his voice is just unbelievable. I adore every song on their most recent album, Some Nights.

Nate Ruess, the main singer for the band, was incredible. Everytime he would sing in front of our section my heart would swell a little more from the proximity. The fact that I could see his crystal clear green eyes was one of the highlights of my night!! (Yes I love him! I thought that was obvious haha!!)
Back to my post, I made two parts to my GRWM post because it was too long for just one video. (sorry!) So I hope you like this first part, it is about how I did my make-up, hair, and my outfit for the night. Next video will be up on Friday so stay tuned!!

Here is my outfits and my experience at the fun. concert.  

Enjoy!

Fun In The Sun

Hello lovlies!! Hope you're having a great summer! When I went to the beach this past week I trully enjoyed myself! Something that hasn't happened in a long time. Went to the beach everyday, had a wonderful breakfast, enjoyed time with my family and at night chilled! I've been super stressed out about school and life. I actually forgot what is was to not have a care in the world. 

Here I show you a little bit of my trip, hope you guys like the pictures! I also have to mentin that the first picture is my favorite just cause my hair looks so awesome!! I actually dyed it a bit more so now the bangs and the rest of my hair is much lighter, but I have to dye it again cause I want the bangs and the tips to be blonde! Will show pictures when that happens! 

Dinner with the sister! Look at my ombre hair!! I re did it! Pictures soon!

The best Pina Colada I've ever tasted!

The first day on the beach and it got pitch black!! But that was for just a moment, not even a drop fell.

A Crab attacked our campsite right after the picture

I adore this swimsuit!

Such a beautiful view!

Lol being very very silly
