Fashion goes tech

Hi everyone. I know that many people are into electronics today. Well, ever thought of how to get fashion on your phone? Well today, I'm going to show you a app.

Fashion Story
This game falls into the lifestyle area, and it's my favorite app.This game allows you to have your own store, or boutique. You can buy decor for your store, with many varieties. In order to succeed, you have to order clothes. As you make your way up levels, you unlock more clothing items and slots for ordering. You can only order a certain number of items at once. Each collection takes a different amount of time to complete, and the items expire if you do not display them on time. For example, if you order something that takes 1 day to arrive, it'll expire the next day.

On this game, there is also a social networking area. You can invite neighbors by adding there stormID. Every player creates an id to post on walls, which is basically like messaging. You can name your store anyway you want, and you and your neighbors can send gifts to each other. You can connect to Facebook, and twitter to earn gems.

Gems are bonuses to cash or gold. Gems are worth more money and they can help you unlock special items that can only be purchased by them. You can rush delivery with them, and many more.
Watch your store thrive, and enjoy this game. It's absolutely Free, and the graphics are also really nice. This game was made by Team Lava, and they have more games that you should check out.  Download it  in the app store;)

Holiday Spectacular!

With the holidays coming up, you need to buy presents for your friends and family. I know this might seem early, but the sales are here and most people shop early.However, you don't want them asking for the gift receipt. As you can see below, these are some presents that can be found under the tree. I also think that these are affordable.Holiday gift sets

 
As you can see, I chose mostly beauty products and goods, not clothing. Unless you know your friend's size, I don't recommend doing that. For the first gift, I chose a Vera Bradley nail set. It looks like a handbag, but when you open it, a very handy nail set pops out at you. The second gift I chose is Essie's 2012 winter collection. Essie makes great colors, and they have great quality. Personally, I think that this nail polish is the best gift to give. They may seem pricey($8) per a shade, but it'll make a great present. Since Juicy Couture came out with some of their more affordable items for the holidays, I thought that this hoodie would be great. Since Juicy's hoodies are usually $100+, I thought that this was a great deal. This cost $50, and the material is super soft, and anyone will fall in love with it. I also like all the fur on it. Okay, what's a better gift than a beauty set. Victoria's Secret has many great beauty products, this is perfect. I have this myself, and this is the Love Spell scent. It smells really good, and they also have other scents. Another set is the Bath and body works sets. Bath and Body have a wide variety of sets, but my favorite is the Sleep set, from aromatherapy. They come from a special set, where it smells so good that it'll make you feel sleepy. It calms you down before bedtime and provides better sleep. Since I am very into good smelling things, why not get a Yankee candle.They have great scents, but recommend purchasing the sweet and cozy ones. The scents don't lie. Since Yankee candles are a little expensive, here's a trick. Instead of paying $30, you can purchase them at Home Goods for $10. The next thing is really adorable. I've realized that many girls like ugly dolls, and I saw them at Barnes and Noble once. I have to admit, they make great presents.
 
 

Stocking Stuffers;)

 
stocking stuffersIf  they like stockings and little presents, this is perfect. Stocking stuffers are really nice, since you can find a bunch of tiny things and stuff them into a stocking. These are usually beauty products, since they fit really nicely. For the first item, I chose a Lippy set, since no girl can resist lip gloss. I also think that the colors are perfect for this season! Next, I chose a Coastal Scents palette, since they are really good and inexpensive. It's tiny and the colors are very neutral and they are a beauty essential. The next gift I chose was a Stila holiday palette, since I thought it was very festive. The colors look gorgeous, and I love the snowflake. However, who can forget the Baby Lips by Maybelline. Baby lips are really moisturizing, and they come in many flavors. I also like the packaging, since it is very creative and colorful. Next, I chose another Essie nail polish. If it's a stocking stuffer, you can get any type you want, since they make all types of shades. Of course, we can't forget about technology. Pink sells beautiful earbuds, which I love because of all the colors. Personally, the jackpot is Bath and Body sanitizers. They only cost $1.50, and they come in a wide variety of scents. I love each and every scent, and it's perfect for on the go!

How to rock those pajamas:)

Humans all need sleep. Girls need beauty sleep to give them power for the day to come. However, some people get distracted by the pajamas. Some of you will attend sleepovers, and since it's winter/fall, it's getting cold.
Problem solved:
Beauty Queen's rules to Pj's
1) be comfortable. Pajamas are all about the relaxing. Don't wear anything that is tight. Instead, go with plain things.
2)Be creative. This goes for everything in life:)
3) Don't spend so much money. Pajamas are very simple and just for sleep. They don't require so much time since you probably won't be wearing them out of the house. You can just wear sweats and a plain t shirt.
Sleepwear
As you can tell, I really like pajamas. For the shirts, I find any tshirt that is already in my closet, so that's taken care of.Anything slouchy and casual is perfect. For the pants, the material really matters most. I like to wear flannel, since they are very warm and cozy. I also know that they make fire proof pajamas, just in case. I find them very comfy too. Some people like to wear long pants, while others like to wear sleep shorts. The shorts are perfectly fine, just make sure that you are warm and cozy. You don't want to catch a cold! As you can see, slippers are probably most exciting and you can get really creative with this. There are the classic bunny slippers, and many other types. They also sell booties, which are very warm and suitable!


Bonus: If you are having a sleepover, don't forget the pillow fight.

In this season

Hi everyone! Today I am going to show you how to incorporate blazers into some outfits. I hope you enjoy my post and comment and be a member!Blazers 2 wear
 Blazers are some of these season's must haves. Blazers are not only for business people, they can be worn whenever you want. By adding a blazer, it gives a tailored vibe to any look, which is preppy and chic. Note: this was created on polyvore.com.
 Outfit No.1
This outfit is sort of a casual version of how to wear one. I really like the color and the material, and I think that the zippers make it even more stylish. I paired these with pink salmon colored ones, and this color is super bright, and unique. Personally, I like blues, since I think the colors look nicer. I never really liked pinks, until I saw this color. I finished the outfit with some blue velvet bow shoes, since they go well with the blazer.
Outfit No.2
No one can forget about the classic. Black blazers are always in, since this color is very appropriate if you are going to work, or attending a formal event. Also, this season peplum skirts are in. I really like the design and structure, since I never really liked wearing skirts. I also like that it is red, since it gives a pop of color. To finish the outfit off, I added some black pumps, since they match the blazer.
Outfit Three:)
Out of all of these outfits, this one is my favorite.The blazer has a pop of color, that is also really pretty. The jeans have snake print on them and I think that it's better than the plain colored ones. With Jeans, I like to go with unique prints such as tie dye and animal prints. The colors white and red go well, so I added some white booties!
Outfit Four* 
Grey is just as good as any other color. Grey is a lighter version of black, and they go great with many colors.  I also like this blazer especially if you are going to work, since the color is very appropriate. However, I changed this to give it a more casual look. For the skirt, I chose a knit skirt, since they look gorgeous. I really like anything that's like a sweater, and this is very warm and cozy. To finish this outfit, I chose these lace up boots. I really like this maroon color, and it gives an edgier look.

Thanks for reading:)
 Comment on your favorite!
Wishing you all a happy Thanksgiving,

Macy's thanksgiving

Macy's thanksgiving
One of the most magical events are coming up!The magic of Macy's!
Hey Guys! I know this is a fashion blog, but this is a special post. Since many of us like to watch this parade, I'd thought that you may like to get a "behind the scenes"

This parade started as a tradition in 1924. In the 1920's many employees at Macy's(NYC) were the first generation of immigrants in America. As immigrants, they were proud of their American heritage. They wanted to celebrate the same way they did back in Europe.
  The parade was from 145th street Harlem to 34th street, in which Macy's was located. Macy's is a really big flagship store in NYC. However, they will change the route sometimes. Every parade is different!
  Since this is a really big event, it requires lots of attention and work.Every float has something unique about it, and you are sure that you can see some of your favorite celebrities performing. Almost 3.5 million come to New York, to watch this 3 hour long parade. If you can't go, live broadcasts are available on TV.
   This parade continued every year, but due to World War 2 it was suspended and then later resumed.
 Some of the animals in the parade are borrowed from the Central Park Zoo. It's quite amazing to see all the excitement and all of the floats. This year some featured performers are: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Trace Adkins, Flo Rida, the Big Apple Circus, Colbie Caillat, Teresa Castillo, Rachel Crow, Thirza Defoe, the cast of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Whoopi Goldberg, Chris Isaak, Carly Rae Jepsen, Karmin, Christian Laettner, Sandra Lee, Mannheim Steamroller, Jennette McCurdy, Don McLean, Megan & Liz, Olivia Culpo, the cast of Sesame Street, Neon Trees, the cast of Power Rangers Megaforce, Cody Simpson, Gabby Douglas, McKayla Maroney, Aly Raisman, Kayla Ross and Jordyn Wieber, The Wanted, Geoffrey Zakarian, and The Kidz Bop Kids.[

Note: I got the performances information on wikipedia.com

Of course, The radio city Rockettes have to perform. Personally, I think that there performances are spectacular. When they dance, they are in unison:) Also, many high school bands perform, coming from various places all over the nation. In the end of the parade, Santa Claus comes in on his sleigh to officially marks the start of the Christmas season. It's an honor to participate in this event.

However, Life isn't all sugar and sweets. From the past, there have been many injuries from balloons crashing into areas. Some catch on fire, and when it's windy, balloons are required to stay lower.



 
Tune in on Thanksgiving at 9:ooam EST on NBC! I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

Fun to Wear Dresses

dresses for fun!

Hi Lovelies!Well, as you can tell today, it's all about the dresses. Personally, I am a little girly, but I like to wear pants and jeans, but that gets boring. Besides, there are many events coming up( The holidays!). But, if you look above, these dresses are all fun and unique.  Outfit One:) I fell in love with the first dress. I really like bows, and this one has a cat on it! It's very cute, and the dress itself is an accessory. The colors are also very neutral, so if you like whites, blacks, or other plainer types of colors, this dress is perfect for you. So, for the shoes, as you can tell, all the outfits have flats. I find flats much more comfortable than heels, and I think that they look just as good. These shoes really bring the outfit together, since they are black. However, the best part are the bows. They match the dress and they look fabulous!Outfit twoIf you like floral prints and colors, well you can say that this dress is perfect for you. The colors really brighten up the whole look, and I think that bright dresses are better than dark colored or dull ones. Another reason I love this dress is because it's also super inexpensive. The dress is from H&m and they have great quality too.Outfit ThreePink and gold! When you think about it, these colors compliment you greatly. The dress is a lovely pastel colored, and it's very elegant. Also, to add some class, black lace will do. It's also its own accessory. To finish the outfit off, I added some shiny gold bow flats. Outfit FourThis outfit has a lot of blue and greens. The dress is a beautiful colorful one, and the design is super cute. It also has this layer of material, which makes it looks a lot better. These dresses are all inexpensive, for great quality. Now, for the flats, these blue velvet ones with bows on them will tie the outfit together. For some reason, this might sound weird, but this reminds me of Alice in Wonderland because of all the colors.

If you want to set a trend, or play around with style and fashion, go to polyvore.com Okay, I guess that's it. I hope you enjoyed this post.

brightening your day

brightening your day
Hi everyone! Well, today, I thought that I would write about how to create the perfect look. As you can see, I'm really into colors. Colors can really brighten up your day, especially bright ones. Also, objects with cool designs on them are just as good. Most people think differently, stating that Fall is all about the darker colors. That's really a matter of an opinion, so dress whatever you'll like. However, when I think of fall, color is #1. Please Note: These are original outfits that I created on Polyvore. I don't just copy and paste other people's ideas. Now, let's get started.

For the first outfit, I chose a bright yellow blouse for the top. Blouses are really in right now, and Yellows really appeal to me. For the pants I chose some green ones. Personally, I think that yellow and green go great with each other. These bright colors will really brighten your day. For the shoes, I chose some metallic gold ones. Metallic golds really seem special, since the colors can catch peoples eyes. To tie the whole outfit together, I chose a sparkly gold clutch in a lighter shade. I think that this is perfect for anyone who is attending a small ceremony or just hanging out with friends when you want to be casual.

The next outfit really incorporates some pinks and purples. Personally, I fell in love with this top. It has stripes but I really like the big purple bow. Recently, I have been really into bows, since they are nice accessories and they are really classic and chic. For the pants, I chose a salmon colored pair, since this color is really beautiful. I'm a big pink fan, and I like to wear anything pink. For the shoes, why not add some sparkly purple ones. Purple and sparkles are my favorite combination, and they go great with this outfit. For purse, I chose a color blocked one. The pink part really ties the outfit together. However, I really like the shape of the purse, since it's really long and skinny. I recommend this outfit for when you are running some aarons or when you want to go shopping.

 The next outfit I chose, is one of my favorites of all time. The top is actually a blouse, and it has unique patterns on it. The colors are also very bright, so it actually makes it even better. I chose some electric blue skinny jeans. Skinny jeans are really in, and I like colored jeans better than the original. For the shoes, I thought that these maroon colored platform boots really matched the entire outfit. It brings out the shirt, and I really like the style. To finish the outfit off, I chose another maroon colored object. This purse has a great shape, and you can wear it cross body, too. I recommend this when you are out, or if you are dining at a restaurant with a friend for a casual lunch.

The next outfit is really adventurous. To start, I chose a salmon cable knit sweater, since I'm really obsessed with the color. I've also been really obsessed with metallics, and especially purple too. These jeans are really special and they look chic especially since they are skinny jeans too. For the shoes, I chose some red checkered sneakers, since they are really handy for this season. For the bag, I chose a tiny cross body one, so you don't really have to hold it and the color is amazing. If you are out with your best friends, or just roaming around town, this outfit is perfect!

Recreating Taylor Swift's looks

Hello guys! Today, I thought of recreating some of Taylor Swift's looks.

TS re



















So most celebrities wear outfits that are super high end and they cost you a fortune. Most people want to look like them, but they think that they have to get the same things as them. However, many things can be found in your closet.

To me, recreating means turning someone else's style into my own. Sometimes it can't be the same, but I know that it still looks great. Don't worry, because the clothes here are super inexpensive and affordable.

For the first outfit, Taylor wears a very chic white blouse. Recently, blouses are very in and they go great with almost everything. I found one, just as good, for $13 at H M. Personally, I think that H M has great quality clothes for low prices. For the pants, Taylor sports some light brown pants with detailing on the bottom. Most of the pants that had the detailing at the bottom were really expensive and if I included that, it wouldn't be recreating it at all. Instead, I substituted a pair of creamy vanilla colored ones, that looked just as good. They  are only $32 so that is very affordable and I think they still look gorgeous. For the shoes, Taylor wears some maroon colored flats. I really like this color because it ties the whole outfit together and it's a brilliant shade of dark red. I chose high heels though, since I thought that looked great too.For the purse, I chose one that looked very similar to Taylor's. If you take a peek to the second outfit, Taylor is also holding a brown bag. From recent Photos, she has been wearing a lot of brown. However, I think that brown handbags are very in this fall, so you should definitely check it out. And if you want, add some accessories!

For the next outfit, Taylor wears a polka dot top. The top is really pretty and it adds some fun to your outfit. Instead Of choosing a more loose type of long sleeve top, I chose a short sleeve one. This shirt is really short, and you can consider that a crop top, so I recommend wearing something inside. For the pants, Taylor chose some red ones. Taylor has been wearing a lot of red recently( her new album) I chose a very similar pair, and I think that black and red go well together especially for this season. For the shoes, I chose these high heeled black pumps, since they are very chic and classy. Recently, I've really been into satchels, and I'm so glad that Taylor wore one for this outfit. The brown, yet again, still looks gorgeous with this outfit.

So, I hope you guys liked this post. If you ever run out of ideas for outfits, I suggest recreating ones from your idols or your favorite celebrities. Also, keep in mind that these outfits are very inexpensive. Please comment and be a member! I wish you all a happy week and Thanksgiving!
