Valentines Day is coming up quick which means it's time to master the perfect red lip ! :P In this post, I am breaking down all the essential steps and products needed for this look in the most simplest way possible. I want everyone to be able to do it ! Of course, you can pick your own prefered tones of red (or even pink !) for the perfect lip. I already have a video all about this look on my Youtube Beauty Channel. Click Here to watch it ! Otherwise, keep on reading :D
If you have always dreamed of becoming a Victoria's Secret model (like me... hehe xD) I am here to show you how ! I was inspired by the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show of 2011. I absolutely loved the hair and makeup that the models sported so beautifully down the runway. The look is all about big messy waves, winged eyeliner, and bronzed out cheeks. Which always happens to be on trend regardless of the season. I already have a tutorial video uploaded on my Youtube Beauty Channel if you would like to check that out : Click Here. Otherwise, keep on reading for your how-to guide on getting the Victoria's Secret Model Look !
Not too long ago I went to a new salon for a new look ! I wanted something fresh, something I haven't done before. I decided to cut off about 4 inches. And believe it or not, I wasn't scared at all ! I was so ready for a change. I asked for the stylist to change my original V-cut hair into a straight across cut. Now that I have the straight across cut, it gives me much more volume and bounce ! I kept my side bangs length and she angled my hair from the chin down. I do have a few longer layers as well. I asked the colorist to "warm up" my look. I have no idea what color she ended up using but I love the way it turned out ! Its like a nice warm brown. Here are the rest of the pictures from my little photoshoot :) Enjoy !

My main goal for the New Year is to get in the best shape of my life. Being 21 years old, I should be at my prime. My body should look the best it ever has at this age. I should be happy to look in the mirror and confident in myself. Yet in the last months of 2011, I had somehow gained weight throughout my mid section, lost the muscles gained over the summer, and I felt so down and stressed. I wasnt nearly as happy as I could be. I found myself wearing really loose shirts on a daily basis to hide the extra pounds I had gained. I couldnt wear the stuff I wanted to anymore.
January 1, 2012 is the first day I said to myself that this has got to stop. I have to stop eating anything I want, whenever I want. I have to stop thinking "Oh.. I don't look SOOOooo bad." Instead, I want to have confidence about my body. I want to be able to wear a cute little tank top and not have to worry about my stomach bulging out ! I want impress my boyfriend ! I want to make him see that I have the strength to push myself and be healthy for once !
