What Color?

There are always new things coming out- especially makeup. There are so many different colors to choose from, and there are always people in distress wondering what color eyeshadow to wear!

Baby Blue Eyes: Classic Choices: Taupe, gray, violet, purple, deep blue (a darker shade than your eye color makes your eyes really blue), black (mix it with bright blue for a smoky effect)
Funky Favorites: Silver, turquoise, fuschia (brightens any shade of blue)

Green Eyes: Classic Choices: Brown, apricot, purple, plum, deep khaki or forest green (because they are in the same greenish family, they brighten green eyes)
Funky Favorites: Gold, lime-green, really light green, bright purple

Brown Eyes: Classic Choices: Copper, bronze, champagne (soft pink with a touch of apricot), brown, beige, and khaki-green
Funky Favorites: Tangerine, royal blue, hot pink, lime-green (the contrast adds punch to brown)

Changing Eyes (Including Hazel): Classic Choices: Navy or charcoal base to define and a powder-blue shadow for highlighting (it brightens your brow bone)
Funky Favorites: Silver-sparkle shadow makes all eyes look edgy.

Puffy Coats?

In winter, you know that you are going to face a huge dilemma- puffy winter coats. Instead on wearing a puffy winter coat, go for a trench coat or pea coat look. If you really need a snow jacket, get one from northface or columbia, because they have jackets that are super warm, but they also are cute and thin. I hope these tips can help you pick a cute and fashionable coat for winter.

Cute, Inexpensive Teen Clothes!

You don't need to be wearing Michael Kors and Versace to look like a million bucks! There are many stores on the more inexpensive side that sell amazing clothes. My personal favorites are aeropostale, pacsun, and delias. Delias is a little more expensive, then pacsun, but the cheapest is "aero," if you know where to find the deals. Tip number one if to definately try looking at outlets. They have cheaper alternatives to high end brands. Another tip is knockoffs, but good ones. At teenage age, not everything has to be legit. My last tip, and most important tip, is to CHECK SALES! You can snag things for up to 70% off at these stores. So be patient, be smart, and, most importantly, be fashionably!

Hey! This is my very first blog post ever! I'm going to start off with a review. I have recently purchased the Bath and Body Works "Dark Kiss" Bubble bath. It retails at $12.00 in the US and it smells exactly like the rest of the collection, like berries and vanilla. It smells very nice, and the smell truly fills the room. The bubbles are very large and frothy. The problem is, they don't last. But, once they leave the tub, they leave the water feeling nice and silky. So, is it worth it? I think, yes! Stay tuned for a new post every day!
