celebrity style #2

This weeks celebrity is......
*DRUMROLL*
Taylor Swift!

I love this outfit on Taylor because it's so simple, but she's still managed to make it look stylish. I chose this particular outfit because it's something that pretty much anyone can pull off. (:
Sorry for the lack of posts lately guys, last night I was awake most of the night doing a Music project for school. -_-'

perfume favourites

Here are a few of my favourite perfumes and a review on each one. (:
No celebrity style this week, sorry, but you can still request for next week because I will do 2 next week.
5 favourite perfumes

1. Harajuku Lovers Limited Edition Snow Bunnies in 'Love'.  This perfume is awesome, I especially love the bottle. I don't wear it very often, I usually save it for outings because it has really strong scent. It smells of fruit, like most of the perfumes I wear, but is much stronger than perfumes such as 'Black Star'.

2. Black Star by Avril Lavigne. I love this perfume, I wear it every day. It's perfect for almost any occasion. It has a light, fruity, feminine scent and is good for any time of the year; winter to summer. I recommend it to people who are fond of pear, jasmine or blackcurrent scents because this perfume is full of them.

3. Chanel No 5. This will probably sound weird, but this perfume smells like... baby powder. No jokes. But in a good way. It smells really sweet and reminds me of spring. (:

4. Champs Elysees by Guerlain. This perfume has a very fresh sent. It smells like floral rose, blackcurrent and something else which I can't put my finger on. I think this is a really nice fragrance for a formal dinner.

5. Viva La Juicy by Juicy Couture. This perfume is a very flowery fragrance. It smells of honeysuckle, gardenia, jasmine, and some other things, too. I also love the bottle of this one as it is very cute and girly.

9 wardrobe must-haves

9 wardrobe must haves.

1. Denim Shorts! Perfect for summer & spring!
2. Plain shirts or Singlets. They're perfect for all year 'round.
3. Cardigans. So cute paired witha  singlet and skinny jeans. You can wear them during Fall, Spring & winter.
4. Ballet flats. Work perfectly with basically any outfit, winter or summer.
5. Hair Bows!! These are the perfect accessory that i believe every girl should own. they can make a dull outfit seem completely unique!
6. Skinny jeans. These are life savers! They keep you warm in winter, and in summer they can be paired with a cute singlet and some ballet flats.
7. Over-sized sweaters. What can i say, these are the cutest winter trend! You can get them in different colours and patterns that suit every girls needs.
8. Bangles. They can make or break and outfit. I suggest some funky silver and black bangles for a punk-rock-ish effect or some gold ones for a cutesy look.
9. Converse. these shoes are amazingly sturdy and come in a variety of different styles, colour, patterns, etc. You can even get them specially made with whatever design you want!

So there you go, if you haven't got most of these things then a shopping trip is needed!
Love you!

pretty nails! (:

ever wanted beautiful nails that look like you just got them done professionally, but don't want to pay huge amounts or spend ages getting them done? well i have just the thing for you. i must admit, i'm not the best at painting my nails, and often get frustrated when my french manicure turns out to be messy and gross. so when i found this product, it was like a beauty miracle! i could finally have the effect i wanted, with little effort, and, in such a short time. Cutex Nail Whitener, totally saved my life.
wednesday morning. i woke up, tired and in a rush. i glanced at my nails, which were getting quite long, and sighed at the transparent part at the end of my nail which is supposed to be white. my nails tend to go see-through-ish when i let them grow, and it really annoys me. at my school we aren't allowed to have painted nails, so when i searched through my nail polish box and found this, i was extatic. when you paint it on your nails, it gives a slightly pinker look to the top, and a whiter to the bottom. two coats give you a gorgeous manicured look, and best of all- my teachers don't notice that they're painted!
I seriously recommend you try this product, i've had it on for nearly four days now, and it hasn't even started chipping. plus- it's really quick to dry.
this is a really great product, i love it! i got sooo many complements from friends & family, and i'm sure you will too. (:

clean&clear

hello, hello!
today i have a review on my favourite foaming face wash, toner & moisturizer, so be prepared!

i use the clean&clear Foaming Facial wash. I feel it's really nice on your skin and makes it feel really clean. Then i proceed to the Oil Controlling toner, which i believe has been one of the steps to keep my face pimple free (: Then i let the toner dry and apply the oil-free moisturizer. Id on't particularly like the moisturizer, it says oil free but it makes my skin feel really cakey and oily. Although other than that, i think these products are really great and you should definitely give them a try if your wanting smooth, blemish-free skin. :D

reviews.

so, i've decided to pack a bunch of reviews of some of my favourite/most used products into this post. i will include the pros and cons.

1. First up is the TRESemme Naturals. I've used them for a while, not long, but I've certainly noticed a difference. My hair feels a lot softer and does not get tangled so much. I'm not really sure that they even have a con.
2. BYS white eyeliner. I use this almost every day. I think it is fairly good considering it was like only three bucks. I'm told that BYS is sort of an australian version of NYX, but i don't know for sure. The bad thing about this product is that if you have watery eyes, this product will not stay on for very long, unless you apply on your lash line and not waterline.

3. LipSmacker Strawberry Fanta lip balm. This product worked very well for me for about 6 months. I would apply it regulary and it left my lips feeling soft and with a slight tint. However, after a while it became to come less smoot and started to become chunky when i applied it. I think you should still definitely try it, but don't expect it to work forever.
