Mauvy Lip Tutorial

"Mauvy", "Kylie Mauve Nude Lip", "Mauvy Nude Lip", these are all terms that have been lingering around all of social media. This lip has been my GO-TO Fall lip and I am sure it will be my GO-TO Winter lip. I love this shade because it complements any skin tone and if over drawn with taste it can make your lips appear larger, which I am sure a lot of us would love. 

In order to achieve this lip I use three very inexpensive products. The first is Prestige lip liner in the color KISS, I use this one to line my lips and fill it in a little as you can see on the second photo. The second product is Milani lipliner 04 in NATURAL which I use to fill in my lips. Then I take Maybelline's 930 TRUFFLE TEASE  and finish off this Mauvy/Kylie inspired Lip. I will link all the products below incase any of you are interested in purchasing them. 

I hope you all enjoyed this Tutorial. If you try it out or anything similar I would love to see it :) send it to me on instagram or twitter. You can find all my social media links down below.

DIY School Supply Case

Today I have a great DIY/Recycle idea for all your old phone cases. I few months ago my sister gave me this iphone case (which I did not like for my phone). Instead of throwing it away I decided to recycle it and use it for my school supplies. I wanted to share this amazing idea with you all since I feel like many people have similar cases just lying around at home. I Hope you all enjoy this DIY/Recycle idea. If you do this I would LOVE to see them so send them to me on twitter (@iBrendaMichelle) or tag me on instagram (@i_brendamichelle9)

OOTD *For the cold weather*

This Black Friday my lovely mother bought me this Zenana Outfitters Jacket which I really like because I have been looking for a green Jacket for a while. I like this one because it has gold studs on the shoulders and it also has lots of pockets and it is really cute. Although if you want to be warm put a long sleeve under :)  I paired the jacket with my Celia Cheetah shoes and some plain blue jeans and a white shirt. For accessories I had a gold necklace and some pearl earrings. I hope you all like this OOTD. If you have any questions about the outfits leave a comment :) 

New Direction

Hi everyone, 
I know I have not posted in a very long time but I have been going through a lot of changes in my life which I will be telling you all about. However, I wanted to let everyone know that I will be making my blog more than just fashion. I know in the beginning I had posts about health and beauty and then transitioned to fashion. I have decided to turn my blog into a lifestyle blog. It will include a lot of things from advice in health to fashion and even school since I am a college student. If anyone has any advice or even any suggestions about what you would like to see please let me know I would love to take your opinions into consideration. Thank you for understanding :) 

"Get out there" OOTD

I am sorry I have not posted in a really long time but I have been on my school grind lol :)
Anyway I wanted to post this picture because I really liked it and I thought I would address my way of mixing any animal print item with clothing. Personally I believe that every person has there own style but the way that I like to wear, ESPECIALLY cheetah print, is with solid colors. I think it looks really good to have a statement piece, whether it be your shoes, necklace, pants, or shirt. I only like to have one statement piece. In this picture my statement piece are the cheetah Celia shoes that I am in love with! Pleas show me how you all wear cheetah shoes or any other cheetah print piece I would love to see. Thank you for reading my post. I will try to post more often. Please comment below I would love to know what you think.

Fall Favorite Nail polish

Having our nails done is something that women love. I know I do but sometimes it is very hard to go to a nail salon as often as we would like. That is why I chose my top 3 favorite nail polish brands, and colors for fall that will make any woman feel amazing and like she just came out of a session at the salon. The first nail polish is a shiny dark purple named Vernis Classique which is by Cherimoya. The second is the velvet rope from Revlon ColorStay. The third is a very dark navy blue named mesmerize from SinFulColors. I love this nail polish because it looks amazing and goes very well with the fall trends. All of these nail polishes last long and look amazing all you need is 2 coats and a clear coat to top it off and you will be looking amazing for a while :) Dark nails are a must have for Fall and these 3 brands or at the top of my list. I hope you all liked this post. If you have any other brands that you love please please comment below I would love to know and try some new brands. <3 

OOTD 1st day of class

I love love love my new cardigan from H&M it is really cute and flowy which allows the air to go in. The textile is is very thin and soft and perfect for Fall weather. This piece goes great with some dark jeans or even some tights. The color is also one that is just right for Fall. I hope you all enjoy this outfit <3

Summer -Fall Transition Pieces

I know coming out of summer a lot of us have our closets filled with dresses, and skirts, shorts, and clothes that might not be warm enough or wearable for the Fall or even the winter. Something that I like to do to not have to go all out and spend a lot of money for different seasons is buy certain articles of clothing that can help that transition. I do live in Los Angeles and we do not have that much of a colder weather so these tips might not work for every person, especially not in the east coast were it does get really cold. There are 3 pieces that I know I will be buying because I can add to a pair of shorts a dress or skirt. Which is very useful and economic.

The first piece is a blazer (any dark color would be good) I want a black one because it goes with practically everything. This blazer is the Boucle Jacket from H&M I really like the design it is very edgy and it has faux leather lining which I love! Paired with a dress and some tights would be perfect for Fall. The second piece is a pair of flat ankle boots. These boots from H&M are so cute and I love the brownish dark color because again it goes with almost anything. Put them on with tights or jeans you can use them with so many different clothing pieces. The third and last piece is a cardigan. I personally chose a green Fine-knit cardigan from H&M because the color is really nice and it is a color that is going to be very used this Fall. Apart from the fact that the cardigan is extremely cute. It is a win-win situation.  However a cardigan of any dark color like burgundy, gray, black, or even a dark mustard color would look amazing. And of course you can pair a cardigan with so many things such as any dresses, skirts, tights, even shorts and it looks good and is comfy.

For me it is really important to buy pieces that can be very versatile and used for so many combinations of style. Buying the right fashionable pieces is an amazing way to stay on budget and not spend too much every season. I hope you all liked these Fall to Summer transition pieces. <3

Greens and Leather [Fall trends I CANNOT wait for]

One of the top colors for this Fall is Green, any dark green or emerald like colors. I love, love, LOVE that color so I cannot wait for this trend. A piece I want in my closet is the Dark green shirt dress from Forever 21. It is so cute and comfy. Paired with a black hat, some black tights, and any style of boots (maybe brownish booties :] ) would look great 

Another Fall trend that I am looking forward to trying is leather. I do not really wear leather much but I do really like it and I am looking forward to playing with different pieces  One in particular that I found at Forever 21 as well is the Faux leather tights that would look great paired with a plaid shirt or even a knit sweater for colder days. Both of these pieces are not expensive. I definitely shop as if i were on a strict budget so I do recommend both of these pieces.  I hope you all enjoyed these trends I cannot wait to see what combinations everyone comes up with for fall <3

ion moisturizing treatment review

Hi everyone I hope you are all having an amazing day! I have been using the ion moisturizing treatment for the past 2 weeks and I really wanted to review it for you all. It is an AMAZING product. My hair was very damaged because of the salt ocean water and just other things that damage ones hair. However this treatment has made my hair feel so soft and smooth I LOVE IT <3 my ends feel so much better I am just in love with this product. The best part is that it is not expensive. Each bottle costs around 7 or 8 dollars and you can get it at any Sally Beauty stores. I definitely recommend you all try it. I hope you all enjoyed this review :)

Fashion and interviews

Getting dressed and prepped for interviews is the hardest thing I know because I live it, we all live it. That's why I thought of sharing one of my fashion and interviews experience. I recently had an interview for a new job at my university. I decided to go simple with  my hair and just straighten it. I think based on the job you are applying for your style should be different. For this interview since it was more of a serious job where I would be working a lot in an office I decided to wear black slacks (which you cannot see sorry :( however they are just regular black slacks :) ) I also decided to wear a dark burgundy simple shirt with a side v- neck (which you can see in the picture) I LOVE shirts with a twist to them it really brings attention to the piece and off course the person wearing it. To top it off I added a nice watch and some small pearl earrings to my outfit. Remember to always try to be comfortable while looking good and professional to any interview. Taking time on your physical appearance really helps boost your confidence and even boost the chances of you getting that job. I hope you all enjoyed this post. Good luck in all your future interviews <3 

OOTD

Something that I love wearing is floral prints with a bright piece. I think it is a great contrast. Today I wore a floral shirt with a bright pink short sleeve cardigan. To top it off i put my hair in a bun for this heat. any floral print with bright piece will look amazing. The shirt was made by my mom and the cardigan was from Target. I hope you all liked the suggestion of wearing floral prints with a bright piece. <3
