Every girl should own a pair of White Chuck taylors & here is why..

Converse Chuck taylors have been trending for as long as I can remember. This sneaker is literally my go-to, there’s three reasons why I love them (1) they go with any outfit (2) They give of a cool vibe (3) I’m just a sucker for white sneakers lol. 😁👍

With that being said, let’s take a look at a couple of ways in which you can style them.

1. Chuck taylors x jeans with a crop top and a shacket

2. Sweaters x Mom jeans

Okay I don’t know about you guys, but mom jeans / boyfriend jeans are super comfy and chic, I prefer wearing them over skinny jeans ANY DAY. 🥲

3. Flare skirts & Dresses

4. Long skirts x Crop tops

5. Just some of my looks with Chuck taylors

That’s about it! I hope this helped and sort of inspired you to get a pair. Thanks for reading. ❤😊

Guide to choosing a hair colour that best suits your skin tone

I’m no hairstylist to judge, but I’ve seen alot of girls with hair colour that don’t suit their skin tone.. And they’re changing it quite often.

How often you dye your hair varies depending on your situation. However, as a girl you should know that coloring your hair often will lead to hair fall and damage as time passes- your hair will become brittle and break easily if you overdo it on the chemical process. This can be prevented by conditioning regularly / using a conditioning mask before and after coloring.

It’s best to know what hair colours suit you in order to bring out your beautiful features! So let’s get started.

What is your skintone?

Start by determining if you have cool tones or warm tones. There’s two ways in which you can figure this out according to @jackmartincolorist.

#1 by examining your wrist veins

  • Greenish colour veins indicate warm undertones
  • Blue or purple veins indicate cooler skin tones
  • If you see a mix of blue, green and purple, that indicates a neutral undertone.

#2 by examining your eyes

  • Golden or hazel eye flecks indicate warm undertones
  • Blue or Grey eye flecks can indicate cool undertones
  • A mix of both indicates a neutral skin tone

Cool hair colours will complement cool skin tones. Warm hair colours will complement warm skin tones, and neutral skin tones are the most flexible, if you have this skin tone you can literally pull off any hair colour-both warm and cool tones, from beige blonde to cool platinum.

Check out the few hair colour looks I decided to share based according to each skin tone category.

The basic dark brown
Dark brown with caramel highlights

Cool skin tone hair colours

Rose gold hair
Reddish brown (auburn) hair

I hope this helped. Thanks for reading! ❤️

How to style black thigh-high boots 🖤

I’ve been obsessing over “thigh-high boots” since 2019, and they’re still trending in 2021. These boots can literally make any outfit look like high fashion. 🖤

Block heel thigh-high boots

So there’s different types of thigh-high boots in terms of the heel size and width. You get the pencil heel type, the wedge, and the block heel.

My personal favorite is the block heel (shown in the image above), this is because I feel they look more better with my outfits rather than no heel, also I cannot walk in those pencil heels!😂

If you’re a petite girl like me then please make sure to get the one’s with a string attached which makes it adjustable so your boots don’t fall easily while walking. If you have thick thighs then well the better for you. 😏

I’ve purchased my boots from Zando online store. I’ll list the link at the end of my post.

Once you’ve got those bad boys, let’s get started on the different ways you can style them. 😊

#1 The jeans look

These are just a few jeans looks to get inspiration from, I love them and i think they look super chic.

Ps. Paring them up with a trench coat/cardigan makes your look more extra.

#2 The mini skirt look

This look is my favorite. These boots look super fashionable with flared skirts and gives me Paris fashion vibes, haha. 🗼

#3 The T-shirt dress look

Ariana Grande is best known for wearing thigh-high boots, she’s always wearing them with either a oversized tee, jersey or hoodie, and the look is adorable and great for a street style.

#4 The shorts look

#5 The mini dress look

Once again, it’s Madison Beer featured on my blog, haha, I can’t help it guys I love her style. 😅

That’s about all the Inspo I have for how to wear black thigh-high boots. The link to Zando online store is below. Thanks for reading!❤️

Affordable drugstore makeup products that I use 👀

Makeup from popular brands can be ridiculously expensive. I for one don’t really care about the expense of the products I use, if it looks good on me, even if it’s cheap, I’ll use it. 😅

I love makeup, however I’m also not the type of girl to go crazy over every makeup product that comes out. Only occasionally will I go all out with makeup-that’s when I will pull out the expensive products and put them to use. But for a normal everyday look I honestly just use drugstore makeup. You’ll be surprised at how much great reviews these products have.

These products where purchased at either Dischem or Clicks. The signature products where purchased online from the Signature cosmetics store. I’ll list the pricings below.

With that being said here’s a look of what drugstore makeup products I use. 😊🤓

#1 LA girl / Wet & Wild concealers

These are the two shades I use. Creamy beige, and Toast for contour. These products I purchase from Dischem- they sell for about R60 each.

Okay I absolutely love the quality of this concealer! It works great for me and conceals marks that I may encounter on my face so well. I use this in the shade light/medium beige. I purchase this from Clicks- it sells for about R75.

Ps. I don’t use foundation. I feel it destroys my skin and makes me look old 😅 also I find it abit heavy on my skin, I’ve tried many even light weight foundations, but I prefer to use concealer only.

#2 Maybelline bronze and highlight palette

Love love love! I even use this sometimes as eyeshadow and it looks so pretty. 😊 This sells for about R290.

#3 Nyx ultimate eyeshadow pallette

These colours are eye catching, which is why I chose this pallette. So many eye looks to do with this one. 😋😌 Price- About R320

#4 Essence waterproof eyeliner

I recently purchased this one and it finished so quickly! 🙄 If you like the hard tip of the liner then you will like this, I prefer the opposite though. Price- R65

#5 Essence eyebrow gel

One of my favs. 😊 Super easy to apply with a thin angled eyebrow brush. Price- R82

#6 Essence false lash mascara

This was reviewed the best drugstore mascara..and let me tell you, they were right. This volumizes your lashes on another level. I use this and refrain from using false lashes. 🤭 Price- R60

#7 Nyx soft matte lip cream

I sometimes use this as blush, and it looks fab. 😅😉 Price- R130

#8 Loreal Les-chocolats ultra matte liquid lipstick

Ohmygosh the smell of the les chocolats literally smells like chocolate and looks amazing! They sell for about R150. I purchased them at clicks.

#9 Yardley loose-powder

I use this for setting my concealer in the translucent shade. Price- R170

#10 Signiture glow illuminating baked powder

I use this as highliter. It’s very pigmented! Price-R50

#11 Signature lip glow

My favorite lip balm ever! Price- R30

That’s about all the drugstore makeup products I use. The website to purchase signature cosmetic makeup is below. Thanks for reading! ❤️

5 Ways to style leggings

If you want comfort then leggings are the way to go. However, it can be tricky on how you style them. Some girls fear them because they don’t want their crotch area to show- (it’s me, I’m girls) 😅 but there are other ways to style it without revealing that particular area. The use of oversized jerseys/hoodies, jackets and long tees can be used.

For a more hotter look and if you aren’t afraid of showing that “area” 😂 then you go girl! 😉 You can pair that up with a crop top/tee-shirt.

Leggings can also be pulled of for a chic look- with a blazer or a trench coat- and it looks so good!

With that being said, here are 5 ways to style leggings:

#1 The Chic/ Classy Look

Okay 😍 Victoria Beckham slayed this look! She paired the leggings up with a blazer, belt and black stilletos. This is a classy way to pull off leggings for a day at the office.

#2 Casual look- Crop tops

#3 Oversized Jerseys

#4 Hoodies

Madison Beer paired the oversized hoodie up with a denim jacket. I think it’s so cute!

#5 Teddy Jacket

You can probably tell by now that I love Madison Beer’s style by the many pics of her I posted. 😂

Anyway, that’s about it. Thanks for reading! ❤️

2021 Makeup Trends

Makeup looks have been changing alot over decades.

In early 2000s there was colorful eyeliner/ mascara, blue eyeshadow, thin eyebrows, lip liner as well as glossy lips. In 2016 makeup techniques were inspired by drag queens-from thick, dark carved eyebrows to dramatic eye makeup with a dark lip, not forgetting all of that highlighter that everyone was going crazy about! 😅

However, things have changed now. It’s all about simplicity and applying makeup that enhances your beauty, not covering it up! 🥺🌼

Everyone has different opinions and ways in which they apply their makeup, some may prefer full glam while others stick with the simple techniques.

Just to add my opinion I still love the full glam/drag queen makeup, I love makeup to actually show on my skin 💁‍♀️😂 but only once in a while, like for special occasions. Other than that my everyday go to makeup look would be simple, done in under 10mins. 🤪

Okay, enough about what I think.🙊 Take a look at the 2021 Makeup Trends. 💄

#1 Eyebrow lamination

No more using eyebrow pencil and darkening brows ladies 🙊 it’s all about laminating them and making those brows look slick 👌

#2 Blush blush and more blush

Okay, I have to say I’m one of those girls that tend to always put alot of blush, even on my nose. 😂 I don’t know, I just think it looks so cute, it gives you that soft girl type of makeup look. ☺️

#3 Glossy eye makeup

Hmm, glossy eyelids, they look beautiful, but let’s be honest they’re a pain in the butt to pull off. 🙄

#4 Graphic eyeliner

I looooove this trend. It’s super cool and can work both ways, for a simple and extra look. It’s all about expressing yourself 🙂

That’s about all the current 2021 trends I can think of at this moment, if there’s more I will update. Thanks for reading! ☺️❤️

Combat boots

Combat boots- Designed to make a fashion statement!

These boots are definitely a must have! They go well with literally any outfit perfect for any season.

The perfect fit, good quality and so comfortable. I personally love these because of its platform sole that gives me some height as I’m 5’0. 😀 They come in colours such as the basic black, white and I’ve seen red and pink. I prefer the black though, more classy might I say 🙂

Why mom jeans are the absolute best! 😍

Mom jeans: Baggy jeans

These jeans are not only super comfy-they look absolutely adorable. Bt. Dubbs they aren’t just for moms to use 😅 teens use them as well. They go great with tees for a casual look and I’ve seen some celebrities pair them up with a blazer which looks quite smart. If you tired of using skinny jeans, as well as those high waisted ones that make you unable to breathe, give the mom jeans a try. You’ll love them without a doubt!
