Demi Lovato Inspired Makeup Tutorial

Hey guys! So I was randomly surfing the web and found Demi Lovato's performance from Good Morning America last week and I totally and completely fell in love with her makeup. Check out the pictures bellow. 

I know you can't really see her eye makeup in the pictures but if you watch her performance you can see it a little better. I also came across this picture (bellow) which is almost identical to the makeup she wore on GMA. 

I've kind of been going through a hard time lately and I've been listening to Demi Lovato's latest Album, Unbroken. It's a GREAT album and I suggest you all listen to it. I decided that it would be fitting if I did a makeup tutorial on this look so check it out!

Summer Eyes

Hey Guys! I want to share with you an eye look I came up with tonight, literally spent 5 minutes on it (just one eye). I'm going to be attending a beach wedding in a few weeks where I will also be doing the brides makeup so I wanted to come up with a fun look for myself. I realized this weekend that I haven't really played with bright colors in over a year. I've mostly been doing matte/ neutral colors which is fun but I have SO MANY bright colored eyeshadows that it would be a real shame not to use them. So...... I figured nows the time, the sun is out and bright COLORS are in. This will most likely not be my makeup look for the wedding but I thought I'd share anyway. Let me know what you guys think.

Fringe Collaboration with Little Petite

Fringe, fringe, FRINGE! Today's blog post is a collaboration with a fellow blogger, Adriana from Little Petite, she also happens to be my cousin :) We decided to collaborate on an idea I've had for a few months now and that was to make a D.I.Y. fringe shirt. Adriana lives in AZ and I live in Southern California so since we couldn't take our pictures together, I will be linking her blog post bellow. 



I got inspiration from a Wildfox shirt I own. I found a link to a similar Wildfox shirt HERE. That shirt retails for $88 which, let's be honest, is pretty insane for a top. I decided to go to my local Goodwill and pick up a few shirts to try and recreate this look for a much cheaper price. I found this shirt in the mens section for $2. I suggest buying a mens shirt because they tend to be longer therefore your fringe will be longer. 

He're is the outcome of my first attempt at a fringe shirt, I'm pretty pleased :)

Find out how Little Petite's shirt turned out HERE


Shirt- Goodwill D.I.Y. by me
Shorts- GAP D.I.Y. by me (used to be yellow capris)
Shoes- Kimchi Blue from Urban Outfitters
Sunglasses- Guess
Bracelets- Ebay, Mexico, and Forever 21
Rings- Ebay and Mexico
Camera- Lomography Diana Mini
Nail Polish- Deborah Lippmann in I Know What Boys Like and Milani Gold
