Printed Bows

Hi lovelies,

      I hope everyone's having a great day, and sorry for the infrequent postings; I have been busy and uninspired lately. Today's post is based off a nail design posted by The Beauty Department (www.thebeautydepartment.com). This website has amazing beauty tips and ideas, especially their nail designs! They're so creative, unique, cute and somewhat easy to do. Since I owned all the colours needed, I thought that a re-creation on the original design would be fun to try out. Without further ado, keep on scrolling to see my take on this design. 

     Here are the photos:
^ products used
^ start off with a clean slate
^ Paint your nails three coats of Essie's "Turquoise & Caicos"
^ Use OPI's "Alpine Snow" and create two strokes in a "V" shape
^ Lastly, use a black striper to create a heart by outlining the border and paint two loops
^ voila we're done!
Sweater- Forever 21; Bracelet- ONLY

Hugs and kisses,
Suzy

Fashion Show Field Trip

Hi lovelies!

     I had an incredible opportunity to attend a fashion show as a school field trip! Normally school trips consist of visiting historical museums and other uneventful places. But when the opportunity came about, I jumped at the chance; by being a fashion blogger I was excited to go.
     The fashion show I went to was hosted by a college in my city where third year student designers had to individually come up with their own collection consisting of around three to four pieces. Some of the outfits were stunning, whereas some were very abstract (to say the least). However, I feel like I would have enjoyed the show more if it was shorter since there were so many students and collections to showcase. Overall, it was a great experience.

     Here are the photos:
^ the fashion show set up
^ two designers, two different outfits
^ some of my favourite looks
^ a showcase of vintage dresses
^ a complimentary notebook that's cute and eco-friendly
