I usually don't make so many plans for the weekend, but this weekend was hectic!
I had all my family at home, then I spent like 7 hours baking cakes and sure I was tired.
I really enjoyed this weekend!

Cold Front & Oxblood

Oxblood♥

Boots & Dress: JCP Purse: NY&C

I love the cold weather and I love wearing boots. This is one of my favorite outfits for the cold weather because I get to wear my favorite dark colors.

The little black dress♥

Dress: Express Shoes: Lauren Conrad (Just because present from my boyfriend) Silver eye-liner & pink lipstick: Mary Kay Cosmetics

Simple is Beautiful!

I wore this outfit for a Friday night. The material of the dress is simply cotton, but what makes the outfit look more sophisticated is the way I did my hair (curls with the chi-straightener) and make-up and of course my beautiful shoes. 

I am wearing a light pink lipstick and silver eyeliner to make my eyes pop even more.  

Polk-a-Dot♥

Skirt: JCPenney Blouse: Forever-21 Belt: found in my closet! 

I wasn't that sure about this outfit, but I saw a post from one my favorite Blogs: "The fancy Pants report" and  I decided to give it a try. I love the combination and Black and White has always been one of my favorite combinations. 

More Mustard

I'm in love with the mustard color! I can wear it everyday without feeling too much yellowish!

Skirt: NY&Co. Blouse: JCPenney(last year). Shoes: Sarada JustFab

I wore this outfit for Sunday♥

 



Beauty Ideas

http://thebeautydepartment.com/hair/

1. Start with all of your hair in a ponytail. I like to place the pony at the occipital bone (that bone you can feel in the back of your head).
2. Next, slide the ponytail holder down about an inch or 2 and split it down the center as you see in photo #2.
3. Flip the ponytail up and feed it through the split, grabbing it with your fingers from underneath and pulling it through.
4. Now give the ponytail a gentle tug so it tightens back up.
5. Your ponytail should look like this. There should be a slight separation where you’ll be tucking hair later in step 7.
6. Use a comb to tease the ponytail. You can tease as little or as much as you want. The more you tease, the bigger your bun will be. The less you tease, the tighter the bun will be. Once your done teasing the hair, smooth the outside of it gently by using a smoothing brush.
7. Wrap the ponytail around one hand and tuck the tail of the ponytail into the hole you created when you twisted the hair.
8. Once you’ve tucked the excess, start pinning the bun in place. Gently pull it apart to make it fuller. The teased hair acts like stuffing, so you can spread it out carefully for a little more volume! If you hairspray as you go, you won’t have to worry about it falling out so much. Use the larger bobbypins to start securing the bun and then use the smaller ones around the edges. For updos like this it’s crucial to have a strong holding hairspray, but one that doesn’t get sticky or look wet.  It’s called SuperHold and it’s like liquid bobby pins! It’s got amazing hold and it stays dry. Once you have it all in place, give it a good spray all over and lay down any unwanted fly-aways.

A fuller bun + a tighter bun can both look great for different reasons. For example– I would do a bigger bun for a wedding and maybe a tighter bun if I’m going to a work meeting. Also consider head size– for a smaller head, don’t overwhelm the silhouette by making a huge bun because it could make your head look even smaller. Use a hand mirror to check on your proportions from different angles as you go.

This is how my bun looks like after following those steps!

DIY ♥Hi-Low Skirt

I bought this skirt at Kohl's for like $7. I love the print, but I wasn't sure if I wanted the skirt to be that long. For that reason I bought it thinking about a DIY.

 

 

 

Fold the skirt where the tag is so you can have symmetry on the skirt

Cut the skirt to the lenght you want to have it. Make sure you try it on first.

Add some colors to match your new skirt

 

This is how I wore my new skirt :)

Hope you enjoyed this DIY.  I think it is really easy to do, and fun!

Origins♥

Lately, I have been suffering with facial breakdowns and I really wanted this to stop. My best friend recommended me to apply what is called "Check and Balances" from Origins at Dillard's. Then, She took me to get a facial there and this is how my face looks now. I don't have any pimples or black heads. I love it. The creams work super fast and they are very durable.   

The wait is finally over!
