Here comes the bride...

Last Saturday, my cousin Wes and his lovely fiancee Sara tied the knot. The wedding was absolutely beautiful! The bad part was it was so fun I didn't take many pictures, but I definitely found some new trends to love!

Let me start with the rehearsal dinner. Many girls (myself included) wore the high-waisted skirt.
Rachel,

Laura,

And me.
The fact that this picture is in black and white doesn't really matter, since everything I wore was either black or white.
Ann Taylor shirt, vintage tassel necklace, Francesca's skirt


I also loved my little sister Claire's outfit.

Old Navy jeweled cardigan, Hannah Andersson Katharine Hepburn-style pants

And now we come to the wedding. As I said before, I discovered many new trends that I love! Such as...

Big jewels, as seen on Allison

Pops of bright color, as seen on Ashleigh

and tiered dresses, as seen on Ashleigh and on me

Glitzerland!


My new favorite shade of nail polish? Glitzerland, from OPI's Swiss Collection. (It used to be OPI's Dim Sum Plum from their Hong Kong Collection.) It's a gorgeous, shimmery gold. It'll be perfect for the holidays coming up!

Fall In Love With...Pixi Endless Silky Eye Pen

This is my new eyeliner from Pixi that I picked up at Target a few weeks ago. Let me tell you...it is AH-MAZING! It's incredibly smooth and long wearing. It glides on so easily. I wore it to school one day, and it lasted the entire day and through P.E. without moving or smearing into the crease. I absolutely LOVE it!

Here it is (in No. 4 Black Cocoa) modeled on my sister Claire.



What I did is draw a thick, dark line on the upper lashline. In my opinion, this is what looks best. I tried it once also on the bottom lashline, but it seemed too thick and dark and made the eye look smaller.

Stripes

Because of all the compliments I've received recently, I decided to blog about my pedicure. Yes, I did do it myself, and it wasn't as complicated as it might look.

Basically, all I did was paint a base color (in this case it was OPI Dim Sum Plum) and then I used polish with long, thin brushes (like these) to paint on the stripes.
What do you think?

Pilot

Hey guys! I'm officially a blogger now...and this is my first post ever! It's pretty exciting for me. Over the next few weeks I hope to have a lot to blog about, so check back soon!
I should probably explain what got me into this. My passion is fashion. And all things makeup, hair...you name it. My first inspiration for this blog was the style rookie, who is completely amazing! She's only fourteen and has been discovered by designers and travels worldwide to different Fashion Weeks. Tavi, you're awesome!
So as I said, check back for more. It'll only get better!
